SYMPHONY X Singer RUSSELL ALLEN And Ex-NIGHTWISH Frontwoman ANETTE OLZON: Listen To ‘Never Die’ Song

Russell Allen (SYMPHONY X, ADRENALINE MOB) and Anette Olzon (THE DARK ELEMENT, ex-NIGHTWISH) will release a collaborative album titled “Worlds Apart” on March 6 via Frontiers Music Srl. The project will be issued under the moniker ALLEN/OLZON.

Allen and Swedish guitarist, songwriter and producer Magnus Karlsson (PRIMAL FEAR, MAGNUS KARLSSON’S FREE FALL) collaborated successfully on three critically acclaimed albums where Russell dueted with Norwegian singer Jorn Lande. After a break in their collaboration on said albums, where former STRATOVARIUS guitarist Timo Tolkki stepped in and oversaw an album, Magnus has returned to the fold, but with an exciting new twist to the formula. This time, Russell and Magnus welcome none other than the amazingly talented Olzon as Allen’s vocal partner and offer up an unbelievable new duets album.

The song “Never Die”, taken from “Worlds Apart”, can be streamed below.

Recording lineup:
Vocals – Russell Allen, Anette Olzon
Guitars, bass and keyboards – Magnus Karlsson
Drums – Anders Köllerfors

This past December, Anette commented on the upcoming LP, writing on social media: “So this is my secret project I’ve hinted about. To make an album with such a great and versatile singer as Russell Allen is an honor for me, and to have Magnus Karlsson making the songs and playing is also an honor.”
