Caleb was the one who did the unclean vocals in both Cave In and Old Man Gloom (shared w/Aaron Turner and Nate Newton in the latter band depending on the song). Underrated bassist, and an awesome vocalist whose style I'd only wish to emulate in my dreams.

RIP

The members were focusing on their other projects, Brodsky with Mutoid Man, Scofield had Zozobra and Old Man Gloom.

No fucking way! R.I.P. band was amazing and his vocals were always awesome. Hate seeing talented muscians die so young especially to tragedies like this. Not trying to be a dick at all but wouldn't it be more appropriate to have the article read bassist/singer because I'm pretty sure some people will get Caleb confused with Brodsky.

This should really say “cave in bassist” so people don’t think it’s Steve Brodsky. Even if Caleb did contribute vocals sometimes

Goddamn. I didn't know about this until today. This legitimately has me torn the fuck up. This guy was one of my biggest influences vocally for the longest time, and before I picked up guitar, he was why I picked up bass. Rest in peace, man, you deserved so much better. Going to jam Until Your Heart Stops for weeks on end now.

Yeah, I gave a donation. As a fan of his work, I personally couldn’t be in good conscience had I not done so.
