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.
