Universe [CVT021]

For over two decades, Caliban has stood as one of the defining forces in metalcore. With their upcoming album ‘Back from Hell’ that is scheduled for a release 25th April 2025, the German band continues to evolve their sound while staying true to the intensity and emotion that have defined their career. 

Led by founding members Andreas Dörner (vocals) and Marc Görtz (guitar), the band’s current lineup includes new vocalist and bassist Iain Duncan, whose clean vocals, songwriting skills and diverse perspective and experience bring a fresh dimension to their already powerful dynamic. Complemented by longtime drummer Patrick Grün and guitarist Denis Schmidt, Caliban’s formidable lineup is poised to deliver a relentless and emotionally charged experience that reaffirms their status as metalcore pioneers.

Back From Hell explores themes of inner struggle, resilience, and catharsis, blending their signature crushing riffs and guttural vocals with atmospheric melodies and modern production.

We spoke to Marc and Iain about the new album, digging into the detail around it and how it came to be. We speak about the time, the effort, the energy, and everything else that went into it and how to move forward, they had to embrace aspects of their past. Caliban’s future has never looked brighter.

Interview: Marc Görtz (Guitar) & Iain Duncan (Bass/Vocals) of Caliban

Kaum eine Band hat die deutsche Metal-Landschaft der letzten 20 Jahre so geprägt wie CALIBAN... uff. Ja, das ist ein krasses Statement, wenn man üblicherweise ACCEPT und HELLOWEEN hört. Fakt ist aber: Bands wie HEAVEN SHALL BURN und CALIBAN haben eine neues Genre und eine eigene Sub-Szene geschaffen, die nach wie vor florieren!
Das sieht man unter anderem am neuen CALIBAN Album "Back from hell" und das wird aus unserem Talk mit Sänger Andy und Basser Ian nochmal sehr deutlich!
UND: wir freuen uns auf die Rückkehr von unserem Murphmeister, der mit Ian vor einigen Jahren den "Bühnenlos" Podcast gemacht hat und Bernie in diesem Talk unterstützt!
Ihr seht also: wir müssen reden! ;) Freut euch auf CALIBAN!

Ihr findet toll, was wir hier machen: dann folgt und liked, macht einen Screenshot, dass ihr uns hört und sagt anderen Bescheid - das hilft uns am meisten, DANKE!

#186 - Metalcore = CALIBAN = Metalcore - Let's talk!

Today we celebrate the legacy of Caliban with founding member Marc Görtz and newest member Kenneth Iain Duncan. This chat has a wide perspective from Marc creating this band over 25 years ago in high school to Iain who was a long time listener being able to join the band with some incredibly fresh elements. Also speaking of those new elements Caliban is on the verge of releasing their new album titled Back From Hell on April 25th! Marc lets us know he wasn't too happy with their previous release and how this one is kind their redemption album that signifies a hard reset of the band and direction for the future. We are one of the few who had the pleasure to listen to it early and are absolutely obsessed! In our opinion it doesn't have a bad track and around sharing this interview we genuinely look forward in hearing what long time Caliban fans think after they drop this atomic bomb of absolute BANGERS! 

Episode 260 featuring Caliban (Marc & Iain)

In this interview, Damian is joined by Caliban’s Iain Duncan and Marc Görtz who dive into their recent album Back from Hell, exploring its themes of inner struggles, personal resilience, and the evolution of their sound.

Iain opens up about his role in shaping the band’s dynamic, while Marc reflects on the creative challenges of long-term music-making. Plus, don’t miss their wildest tour stories — including a hilarious tale of drunken chaos and an unexpected arrest in Serbia that you have to hear to believe!
