Reviews

I'm officially a Hot Water Music fan. I didn't dig there half of their split with Alkaline Trio and hated "A flight and a crash" but "Caution" just contains a sound that does it for me. Whatever you do proceed with no caution, instead stop reading this review right now and either go to cdnow.com, interpunk.com, or your nearest record store and pick this bad boy up. The band wastes no time, instead they rip into "Remedy" which is sure to turn more than a few heads and win over more than a few new fans. As the album proceeded and energy kept rising the admiration I didn't have for the band before suddently appeared. "Trust Chords" is another track that sticks out in my mind with comparisons of Down By Law and Dag Nasty coming to mind. I think it was stated best by Jason Hot Water Music when he said "Musically, we've never wanted to define ourselves at all.", and every track is evidence of that. Pick any of the twelve tracks on "Caution" and it could be considered a "single". There's no one hit wonder in this disc which will be a relief to many. Each track tells a story and is a journey down a long, complex, and punk rock covered road.
