CALIBAN Honor Mitch Lucker With Cover Of Suicide Silence’s “You Only Live Once”

German metalcore mainstays Caliban have released their take on Suicide Silence’s classic “You Only Live Once.” The original track appeared on Suicide Silence’s ‘The Black Crown’ album, released in 2011, and quickly became one of the band’s defining anthems.

Caliban’s rendition arrives shortly after the group paid tribute to the late Mitch Lucker on November 1st, marking 13 years since the Suicide Silence vocalist’s tragic passing. In their post, the band reflected on Lucker’s impact on the heavy music community and expressed their respect for his legacy.

They wrote:

“‘You Only Live Once‘ has always been more than just a song to us – it’s a reminder of what connects this scene: honesty, intensity, and brotherhood. Suicide Silence and Mitch shaped an entire generation of heavy music and inspired countless bands. We played many shows together over the years and always had a great time — on stage and off. Mitch was one of those rare people who carried both relentless energy and genuine kindness wherever he went. Covering this track is our way of paying respect to him and to the legacy he left behind – a legacy that reminds us to live loud, without regret.

For Mitch. You only live once.”

This heartfelt cover follows the release of Caliban’s latest studio album, ‘Back From Hell,’ which dropped in April. You can hear the cover of “You Only Live Once” below.
