Caliban To Record Covers Album
German metalcore act Caliban has issued the following update;
"Hey everyone!
"It’s time for some exciting news: we’re heading towards the studio in a week’s time to record cover songs! Our friend and producer Benny Richter will be keeping an eye on us again and we’re hyper excited about how the results are going to sound like.
"We’re not revealing the secret of which songs we will be covering exactly, (yet!), but if you visited our last European Winter Tour you might have catched us performing Rammstein‘s 'Sonne,' which will be one of the 10 songs we are recording. Talking about the other 9 songs, we chose from the very best classics and milestones of our youth, but we will also surprise you with some more current cover songs. And we promise, we’re not just sticking to one genre!
"Of course we want to keep you as close as possible to the production process and there are going to be pictures and even a special Caliban TV episode recorded at the studio.
"If you’re wondering when this jewel will be available to you, we will have to ask you to practice patience until April/May. We assure you, it’s worth waiting [for]"

Caliban Issues Year End Recap
German metallers Caliban have issued the following end-of-year recap:
"Hey Calibaniacs, a successful year for Caliban comes to an end. We think it's time to draw a conclusion of the past year! We met many old and new friends in 2009, shared the world's stages with lots of new and old bands, made new fans, founded the Caliban 'Vicious Circle' Fan Club, signed at our new label Century Media Records, and proudly released our new record 'Say Hello To Tragedy'. You see, there has been a lot going on. But there is one thing we won't forget: All of this would not be possible without YOU guys, our fans, and we will always be aware of that.
"A massive thank you to all of our fans in the whole wide world that supported us throughout this year and all the past years before. We are not taking your support for granted!!! We do hope that 2010 will be even more successful as 2009 has been already! Before we are treating ourselves with a little break until the end of February, we will be on the road with our friends of Heaven Shall Burn and Deadlock for the 'Darkness over X-mas Tour' at the end of this year.
"You can still see us in the following cities: More...
