Caliban announce brand new album and release new single and video ‘Back From Hell’ (Feat. The Browning)

Author Benedetta Baldin - 29.1.2025

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.

Following the success of their recent singles ‘I Was a Happy Kid Once’, ‘Echoes’, and ‘Guilt Trip (feat. Mental Cruelty)’, Caliban is set to release their most ambitious work yet. “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.

Today they are thrilled to reveal their new single and video, ‘Back From Hell (feat. The Browning)’ with singer Jonny McBee featured in the video that was directed by Mirko Witzki for Witzki Vision. The video premieres on YouTube at 5pm GMT, and you can watch the video here.

‘Back from Hell’ is a declaration of survival. It’s about facing your deepest fears and coming out stronger on the other side. This song reflects the struggle of rising from darkness, fighting your way back from rock bottom, and refusing to accept defeat. We wanted it to be a raw, aggressive anthem for anyone who’s ever felt trapped but found the strength to break free.
