	APOCALYPTICA - H.I.M., THE RASMUS Singers To Perform 'Bittersweet'
	H.I.M. frontman Ville Valo and THE RASMUS singer Lauri Ylönen are expected to join APOCALYPTICA for the world-premiere live rendition of their single "Bittersweet" at a benefit concert for the victims of the Asian earthquake/tsunami disaster at Helsinki's 12,000-seater Hartwall Arena on Monday, January 17. The concert, which will feature 30-minute live performances by H.I.M., THE RASMUS, APOCALYPTICA, NEGATIVE and THE 69 EYES, will start at 7:00 p.m. and tickets are priced at 30 euros. Described as "a dark ballad," "Bittersweet" was written jointly by APOCALYPTICA, Lauri and Ville and is accompanied by an equally impressive video shot in the band's hometown of Helsinki with renowned Finnish director Antti Jokinen (NIGHTWISH, CELINE DION, SHANIA TWAIN). The single debuted at position No. 3 on the Finnish chart upon its release last November. "Bittersweet" is the first single off APOCALYPTICA's forthcoming self-titled album, due on January 24 via Universal.
