Canada's CAVEAT To Release 'Red' Next Week

Western Canada's progressive metallers CAVEAT will release their new album, "Red", on June 1 via Cyclone Records. The seven-song opus is CAVEAT's "third and most elaborate album to date, showcasing their steady writing and musical growth over 2006 which has resulted in a much more focused collection of songs delivering both a heavier and more technical approach to the songwriting," according to a press release.

After the success of 2005's self titled EP, which was rated by Beatroute magazine as one of 2005's top Calgary releases, CAVEAT — comprised of lead vocalist/guitarist Greg Musgrave, lead guitarist Joe Sikorski, bassist/vocalist Terry Baldwin and drummer Casey Rogers — has assembled "a collection of multi-layered musical complexity that breaks all rules of conventionality, while still maintaining the key elements that have gained CAVEAT their broad audience across Canada over the last five years."

"Red" track listing:

01. Red
02. Sin
03. M.O.B.
04. Vindication
05. Vicious Circle
06. My Messiah
07. Within This Weakness

CAVEAT was founded by Greg Musgrave (ex-TOKE, STONEWATER, now also in BLACKSKY and EXIT STRATEGY) on guitar and vocals, and bassist/vocalist Terry Baldwin (ex-CRYPTOMNESIA, VERBAL DECEPTION),with drummer Casey Rogers (ex-STONEWATER, SELF CONTROL, now also in BLACKSKY and EXIT STRATEGY) and guitarist Joe Sikorski (ex-THORAZINE, now also in BLACKSKY and EXIT STRATEGY). In 2005, the newly cemented lineup produced a professional, self-titled five-song EP, featuring 26 minutes of accessible, progressive metal that combines both aggressive death/black metal vocals and three-part harmonies with funk-influenced bass lines and punishing thrash-metal guitar riffs.
