CAVEAT
“S/T”
(Scarab Productions)

Upon hearing Caveat twisting and turning on this self-titled m-cd the first time I couldn’t help thinking of System Of A Down. That soon wore off. But for all the twists and turns, for all the different layered influences Canadian Caveat (just like SOAD) wouldn’t be anything if not for the songs. Even though this is only a five tracker you get more meat on these five tracks than you get from pretty much any other record out there today. There’s so much going on that you have to play it excessively to even begin to comprehend how multi-layered Caveat’s progressive metal is. www.caveatmusic.com
