And thatвЂ™s been the tool for us to develop the songwriting, the arrangement, the production, every aspect of making this album. ' On Cell-0 you can clearly hear that we did not take the easiest path,' chuckles Eicca, ' when we mightвЂ™ve thought something was good, weвЂ™d then say it wasnвЂ™t great, kick it out and work at itВ again. Yet afforded the freedom to explore and create without the constraints of format or schedule, Apocalyptica were invigorated by the process. I think it is braver and more progressive in terms of the writing.'ДЄs the band began their journey at Sonic Pump Studios in Helsinki, it was clear that such discoveries were not going to come easily. ' We found that these concentrated instrumental events helped us to find ourselves better than on other albums,' explains Perttu, ' this вЂrealвЂ™ connection between the cello and the audience was renewed, and made us want to both self-produce and lure ourselves to find the real core of why we began and why we started. During 2018вЂ™s 20th anniversary tour celebrating their genre-breaking debut album Apocalyptica Plays Metallica By Four Cellos, the importance and potential of their roots started to take on deeper proportions. The genesis for Cell-0вЂ™s creation arrived as Apocalyptica were busy revisiting their initial breakthrough turf on tour.

' We went about creating Cell-0 as a full piece of art and not thinking about singles or вЂthe timing of singlesвЂ™ or anything like that,' continues Eicca ' itвЂ™s challenging to get all the details and colours right and still have the energy of being a real metal cello band.' continues Eicca, who like Perttu and fellow cellist Paavo LГ¶tjГ¶nen graduated from the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki ' So that was the main goal for us when doing this album, to have those two very different worlds connecting to each other in a stronger, more explorative way than ever before.'

' We wanted to challenge ourselves to find further flavours in the cello itself,' says cellist Perttu Kivilaakso ' had we found them all? Had we explored every corner to find them?' That first love and passion which fueled Apocalyptica to form during 1993 in Helsinki now carries richer layers of knowledge and experience, which in turn have led to the band to a fundamental realization and creative path. With Cell-0, their 9th studio album, the ambitious and electric quartet have not simply returned to their non-vocal roots, they have traveled deeper and further into the universe of instrumental music than ever before. Eicca Toppinen вЂ“ Apocalyptica (cellist and founding member)ДЄpocalyptica are true explorers, always seeking new frontiers and uncharted territories in which to express themselves. That is to say, where everything comes from and where everything ends upвЂ¦' For us it is a particle that symbolizes the essence of all. ' Cell-0 represents the core of everything.
