CALIBAN In Milan: Video Footage, Photos Available

February 5, 2009

Fan-filmed video footage of the German metalcore band CALIBAN performing the song "I Will Never Let You Down" on Tuesday, February 3 at Rolling Stone in Milan, Italy can be viewed below. Photos of the concert are available on the Musica Metal news blog.

According to Musica Metal, one of the songs that CALIBAN performed during the concert was a track from the upcoming album, "Say Hello To Tragedy", due out in April via an as-yet-undisclosed label. The song is described as "just the usual mix of raw tunes and a few good parts of clean vocals sung by guitarist Denis Schmidt."

CALIBAN previously stated about the upcoming CD, "With the new songs, we are taking things to the next level from 'The Awakening' [2007] just in a more extreme way! We now mixed even more old stuff with new elements! If you thought 'The Awakening' was heavier than the other albums we released before, then wait until you hear the new one! The mood of the album will generally be a bit 'darker,' and more somber as the album title might let you suggest. Some of the songs will probably hit you like a rock, haha! Also, the vocals changed a little bit again, especially the clean vox; we will still have them, but in a different way. They're going more together with the screaming and won't be that seperated most of the time, which makes everything way more interesting!"

The group added, "This time we worked really long and hard to get the 12 new tracks together, we never 'trashed' so many songs, parts and ideas as we did for this album, not because they were bad. We just thought we can do better, that was only possible because we had much more time on our hands compared to the previous albums. This way we could pick the best 12 songs out of like 20 or something. We just can't wait for everybody of you guys to hear the new tracks!! And hope you like them as much as we do!!"

The artwork for the new CD will be created by Basti Basti of CALLEJON, who has previously worked with such bands as HEAVEN SHALL BURN and WAR FROM A HARLOTS MOUTH.

CALIBAN's sixth album, "The Awakening", was released in North America on October 23, 2007 via Century Media Records. The CD was produced by Benny Richter and was originally issued in Europe on May 25, 2007 via Roadrunner Records. The album peaked at number 36 on the German album charts. A limited digipak edition was released, which also came with a bonus patch.
