"this band has been around since 1996 (before you knew what hardcore was)they were one of the poineering bands in the german hardcore scene. bands like kse are good and all but kse is no aftershock (aftershock the original band of the members who founded kse, adam and strozel and with adams brother toby on vocals). but yea back ta caliban dood. german metalcore originators along with bands like jane, aclys, acme, or any of the other german bands on per koro and lifeforce records back then. get it right people. and yea its not a good as it used to be, what is."

They're not KILLSWITCH rip-offs!

"This band is much heavier than killswitch people. Sure they sing the choruses and the songs are somewhat catchy, but KSE are much more mainstream than this band. This album is brutal metal-core at its finest. From track 1 to the last, they don't let up. It is much better than their last cd which I thought was just another metal-core cd. This one is different and it has a little extra something. I love this album and you might too if you'll stop listening to these idiots saying they have ripped KSE off. This band has been around for ten years! They were before KSE. Ilove killswitch as much as the next guy, but I also love CALIBAN and this is a ferocious album that deserves to be heard. Long live METAL-CORE!"
