Pros: Classic Cake!!! Same off beat lyrics and sound stylings
Cons: Sound Can be odd sounding in some tracks
Summary: Being a lover of many different kinds of music, I purchased this before they were popular, based off of once song I heard and am so glad I did!!
This band is kind of a blend... It is almost as if the mom wanted country, dad loves horns, and ... read more

Pros: Smart lyrics, catchy choruses and Rock ‘n’ Roll Lifestyle
Cons: A few country songs, not that there’s anything wrong with country
Summary: If you look back at the ‘90’s and the so-called “alternative nation”, you can see that a lot of the inhabitants are gone, dead or MIA. Cake, on the other hand, have kept on their trail, marching to their own beat. From the beginning they were producing ... read more

Cons: Pentagram
Summary: As a thrifty person, I rarely buy CDs, because I find that once I buy one, there are only a few songs that I will actually listen to. However, I have found that with all three Cake albums, this is never the case, especially within Motorcade of ... read more

Pros: songs to make you happy
Cons: typical first album
Summary: This is the album that no one ever knew about before they heard "The Distance" off of "Fashion Nugget" and it is truly a shame. I, too, did not buy this album until I had first purchased "Fashion Nugget".
After ... read more

Pros: early cake very good rock
Cons: hard to find a hi-fidelity copy last time I looked
Summary: This is Cake's first album, and it is definitely worth listening to. For those of you with "Prolonging the Magic" or "Fashion Nugget" this one is the first step in the evolution of Cake. John McCrea sounds a little younger, and the ... read more
