I don't get why some people like Cake so much either, they aren't bad by any stretch but I just thought they were a bit meh. Real cake > the band Cake. |

Not too many people do like cake. They're something of a cult band. The problem with Cake, I'd guess, for the common person is that the disparity between one song and the next, the beatuy of what they do isn't persented in a nice package thats terribly obvious.
A lot comes from the instrumentation, but you have to value the sparse. This isn't a James Brown or Gun's & Roses. The song writing, coupled with McCrea's voice speaks to certain people. We get where he is and where he's coming from. I wouldnt try and suggest they're a megastar band, but they are very good at what they do, not, in small part, to their song writing either.

Hhaha...I think Big3 is the most misunderstood member here. Someone always ends up asking him what the hell he is talking about.
Don't worry, Big3, I think I understand what you are saying maybe 85% of the time.
