The Cautions - Proceed With...The Cautions


2005 full length CD from The Cautions and it is a true scorcher, taking large leaps forward from their 2001 EP...this one leaves that release in the dust. As with earlier material, there`s plenty of sugary, sweet guitar crunch along with new wavey melodies and post-Weezer sing along chantings all over the place. But the difference here is the strength of the writing of the songs. The production is crystal clear and snappy(courtesy of Bleu mixing a handful of songs, w hich gives you hint of the many of the sounds going on here), the guitars sharper, the hooks *that* much bigger and memorable and the spirit of the whole she-bang is rife with confidence. You *hear* the band just knowing they have gathered up a stockpile of excellent songs to present the band to bigger audience. Fans of The Cars, Bleu, Rooney and the poppiest moments of Weezer, Ozma and Chomsky are going to love this. But it`s pumping guitar driven pop with sparkling vocals and hooks tripping over each other and 15 smashing rock-solid songs that are all about the power in pop! Extremely Highly Recommended!!

'Proceed With... The Cautions' CD Review
Reviewer: Gail  Worley
On its sophomore CD, Boston post-post-new wave quartet, The Cautions, stays true to its major influences ­ Elvis Costello, The Cars and Weezer­ while taking its thoroughly joyful, keyboard-driven, hard-rock-guitar- infused pop to the next level. Vocalist Eric Barao still works his pipes in a flawless homage to Get Happy-era Costello while the band delivers ridiculously melodic, whip smart and hook sharp songs that often best even the lyrical schadenfreude of Rivers Cuomo. Stand out cuts on this very fine 16 track disc include the bands backhanded slap in the face to all those popular bands that, live, are "too cool to play your big hit song" ("Big Hit Song"), a modern-day masochist's love song to the girlfriend who loves him "Execution Style," and a truly transcendent pop gem that adds a little Chris Isaak flavor to the mix, "I Dream of Jeanine." Also including a hidden live track, "Coffee Shop Girl," one of the band's sublimely hilarious offerings from its first disc, Proceed WithThe Cautions is one of my favorite pop albums of 2005 so far. - Gail Worley
