Calgary Metal Band Caveat Joins Cyclone Records
Toronto, ON - September 14, 2006 -- Cyclone Records is extremely
pleased to announce the addition of Calgary metal band Caveat to its
roster. This addition brings a seasoned, exciting dynamic to an already
diverse group of artists.
Together since 2001 Caveat have emerged as not only one of the premier
Alberta metal bands, but have spread their wings very successfully throughout
Canada and internationally. To simply call them metal is an injustice.
They are a group of seasoned musicians who have somehow managed to carve
out a genre that in many ways is hard to pinpoint. The sheer talent
of each individual is staggering. A cross between progressive and experimental
styles, bizarre time signatures, and multi layered vocal harmonizing
successfully blended with downright death metal. They are as heavy as
it comes at times yet often venture into immensely intricate melodic
interludes, which leave the audience picking up their jaws off the floor.
The band issued the following statement:
"2005 was a great year for Caveat getting the word and
music out to the masses and really solidifying a solid fan base more
than ever. Our partnership with Scarab Productions was a great experience
for us and helped us grow as a band considerably. Due to certain circumstances
though, we parted ways with Scarab Productions in early 2006. We are
extremely thankful for our time with Scarab, but now look towards
a bright future in our new partnership with Brad Trew and Cyclone
Records.
In the last couple of years we have watched Cyclone Records grow into
one of the most reputable forces in Canadian music, as well as being
a great supporter of the local metal scene in general releasing one
of most notable metal releases of 2006, being 'The Greatest Underground
Show On Earth - A Calgary Metal Collection 2006'. Caveat's single,
"The One" appeared as the 1st track on the compilation getting the
word out from coast to coast across Canada, which we couldn't help
but notice and appreciate. When it came time to approach a label,
Cyclone Records was the obvious choice for us and from our first meeting
together the vibe between Brad Trew and Caveat was there instantly
and the mutual feeling of a prosperous future together was felt from
both parties. All I can say for 2007 is expect the unexpected!"
About Caveat:
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 and 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 line-up 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. Besides showcasing three new tracks, the EP also includes
re-recorded versions of “Immortalized” and “State of
Grace” from Caveat's 2004 debut album "The Biggest Secret".
