Free Music Review: IN THE GARAGE WITH A PEICE OF......
Hit: 5 Stars
...Cake.
Didn't see that one coming aye?
This is the first album from the pseudo stoner indie rock band cake. For any of you familiar with their biggest hit album Fashion Nugget it may be a little strange (I tend to believe that if you know of other albums other than Nugget, then you probably know this one already...)
Cake have a cult fan base, mainly of people that like what can be defined as light and quirky music. In most later outings the band has a lot of funky beats going down along with a brass section and keys and other weird types of rythyms. I've always dug them.
Their first album is real lo-fi, and it sounds mainly like it could have been recorded in a garage, but the trademark brass is still there, along with a lot of catchy tunes, that I actually find more enjoyable than their '95 chart crasher. The lyrics are funny at times and sometimes just out to lunch but that kind of thing is usually ok in my book.
You've got your grand piano. You don't don't even play piano. I'm the one that plays piano. But you part the water.
Really opens your mind up, huh?
Anyway, quirky music, thats pretty darned good. If you like a stripped down kind of sound, you'll dig it. If you like it I also recommend another underated album of theirs Prolonging The Magic from '97. Liked that one better than Fashion Nugget too.
Motorcade of Generosity Poster
These hipsters make music that's smart and spunky, surrounding the ironic vocals of John McCrea with a broad range of sounds: sometimes spare, sometimes funky, with occasional splashes of country and a Latin twist. Motorcade of Generorsity may lack the full-bodied punch of Fashion Nugget, the album that took Cake to the airwaves, but this 1994 CD offers the same wizened perspective on romance and modern life. And the trumpet accents of Vince de Fiore are bright and high-spirited enough for the Tijuana Brass. --Steve ApplefordAlternative Rock Music CDs
