Episode Three: The Opposite From Within by Caliban

Tim Bolitho-Jones has a chat with Distorted Sound's resident metalcore scholar Chris Earl about a forgotten gem; The Opposite From Within by Caliban. Originally released in 2004, this album did reasonably well at the time, but since then has rarely been mentioned by the wider metal world. Caliban have had an incredible career in mainland Europe, but the English-speaking metal community tends to ignore them in favour of bands like Killswitch Engage. We'll examine the reasons why, discuss why this record deserves a re-appraisal and what legacy it left. Plus, there's a brief discussion on the worst metal cover songs and Tim forgets who The Doors are.
