Worlds Apart is a collaborative album by American singer Russell Allen (Symphony X, Adrenaline Mob, Allen-Lande) and Swedish singer Anette Olzon (ex-Nightwish) under the moniker Allen/Olzon. It was released through Frontiers Records on 6 March 2020.[2][3]
In 2019, Norwegian singer Jørn Lande announced that there would be no more Allen/Lande albums, citing his own lack of enthusiasm.[4] Russell Allen then went forward with this new collaboration with Olzon, which was announced on 19 December 2019.[5]
The first song to be released was the title track, on 17 January 2020.[6] Later, on 18 February, "Never Die" was streamed.[7] On the same day as the album's release, Frontiers streamed the song "What If I Live".[2] Finally, on 27 March, a lyric video for "I'll Never Leave You" was released.[8]
