Reviews Customer Reviews for Attention Please      Spine's best album      Rating:      This is my favorite Caroline's Spine album. "Attention Please" and "Deep in your Wake" are strong openers, with "Nothing to Prove" coming in as a strong single. "Rock N' Roll Hero", "Open Fire", and "Work Song" are all excellent compositions. Most tracks transition easily to the next one. I like this album for its willingness to be experimental. It lacks the definitive Spine track "Sullivan," but you should be an owner of 'Monsoon' already anyway. Highly recommended for rock fans looking for something outside of ClearChannel influence.     Customer Reviews for Attention Please Cd      A must have!      Rating:      I first discovered Caroline's Spine on the soundtrack to An American Werewolf In Paris, which included the song Turned Blue. After seeing the movie I rushed out and bought this album. It seems as though every album which comes out has a number of excellent songs on it, but is let down by one or two which just don't fit in. But with 'Attention Please' this isn't the case. Every son is as enjoyable as the last, and more importantly they are all very different. Album highlights are Deep In Your Wake, Open Fire, Ready Steady Go, Turned Blue and the title track. This is the kind of album that anyone would enjoy, so HURRY UP AND BUY IT! GO NOW!!! Editorial Reviews for Attention Please Audio Cd      Amazon.com      It almost sounds like a bad idea: Combine the new-wave pop of the mid- to late '80s with the sound of second-wave grunge and doll it up with macho emo-like lyrics. What saves Caroline's Spine's debut are the rock-solid songs, tight band chemistry (especially Jason Gilardi's propulsive drumming), and a complete nixing of pretension. This is one of those increasingly rare debut releases where the band has kept the overindulgences stored away. Jimmy Newquist's oceanic vocals are the star of the show, and while some may compare him to Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder, his flipping between tender and terror is less bombastic. Caroline's Spine avoids genericism like the plague, lifting cuts such as the beautiful ballad "Nothing to Prove" and the driving "Deep in Your Wake" above the clichés to which the titles hint. This is easily one of the better debut releases of 1999. --Jason Josephes
