A masterpiece that shines with witty humor and a unique groove.
Cake's second album, characterized by cynical lyrics and witty performances, establishes a unique musical style that skillfully blends rock, country, and funk.
This is a masterpiece that showcases Cake's originality. The light rhythms and dry trumpet tones are impressive, and the album exudes a sense of ease, yet with a solid sense of composition. The cover song "I Will Survive" is also a characteristically ironic reinterpretation, tightening the album as a whole. This work, which combines intelligent humor with minimalist arrangements, is a masterpiece that stands out even among '90s alternative rock.
