S.07 E.11 – Marc Görtz of Caliban

Send us Fan MailOn the verge of their 25th anniversary of the band, it was only fitting for the German metalcore giants in Caliban to give their passionate fanbase something unique – An album filled with lyrics sung in their native tongue. Guitarist Marc Görtz from the band joins IUF today to talk about the new music they are eagerly looking forward to unleashing here in 2021, which is plenty left in the tank. The first release centers around the new album “Zeitgeister”, which contains a collection of the bands previous songs in the backlog that are given a new remake/recording as the lyrics are sung in German this time around. But it doesn't stop there, the songs they chose are still previous fan favorites but the new versions are given a renewed life as if they were brand new. Marc talks about how that specific process wasn't an easy one to begin with, but it was still a great experience for him and his bandmates to come together and give the metal community something extraordinary during these challenging times. Marc also talks about the many worldwide touring cycles that have given Caliban the well-deserved recognition and how grateful he has been for each show performed thus far. Let's face it, staying home this past year has really opened up that new found appreciation for the touring life. Lastly, Marc gives us hints and outlooks on another brand new album a bit further down the road after “Zeitgeister” is unleashed – which isn't too far away. The future for Caliban is bright, perhaps the brightest it's been. After 25 years, they are kicking and heavier than ever. Tune into our episode with Marc now and be sure to buy and stream Caliban's newest headbanger “Zeitgeister” out everywhere on May 14 via Century Media Records.Stay connected with Caliban, visit: https://www.calibanmetal.com/, https://www.facebook.com/CalibanOfficial, and https://www.instagram.com/calibanofficial/Stay connected with IUF, visit: https://interviewunderfire.com/
