The Motels were an American New Wave rock band from Los Angeles, centered around vocalist Martha Davis. They released five albums on Capitol Records from 1979 to 1985, achieving mainstream success with hits like "Only the Lonely" and "Suddenly Last Summer." This album represents their period of expanding international recognition before their major success in the US. It showcases Martha Davis's distinctive vocals and the band's sound, a blend of guitars, keyboards, and saxophone.
'Careful' features songs written not only by Martha Davis but also by guitarist Tim McGovern, keyboardist/saxophonist Marty Jourard, and bassist Michael Good. The diverse songwriting styles present a wide range of New Wave tension and melodic rock, offering a great insight into the band's early sound, even more so than their later hit works.

더 모텔스는 보컬리스트 마사 데이비스를 중심으로 활동한 미국 로스앤젤레스의 뉴웨이브 록 밴드다. 1979년부터 1985년까지 Capitol에서 다섯 장의 앨범을 발표했으며, 이후 「Only the Lonely」와 「Suddenly Last Summer」 등으로 대중적인 성공을 거뒀다. 본작은 그러한 미국 내 성공에 앞서 해외 시장에서 인지도를 넓히던 시기의 음반으로, 마사 데이비스의 개성 있는 보컬과 기타·건반·색소폰이 어우러진 밴드 사운드를 감상할 수 있다.
《Careful》에는 마사 데이비스의 곡뿐 아니라 기타리스트 팀 맥거번, 건반·색소폰 연주자 마티 주라드와 베이시스트 마이클 굿로의 작품도 수록되어 있다. 서로 다른 작곡진의 곡을 통해 뉴웨이브의 긴장감과 멜로디 중심의 록을 폭넓게 들려주며, 후기 히트작보다 밴드의 초기 개성을 살펴보기 좋은 앨범이다.
