CAKE returned with their sophomore album Fashion Nugget in 1996. The record includes the singles "The Distance", "Frank Sinatra" and their well-loved cover of Gloria Gaynor's disco hit "I Will Survive".
Originally formed as a somewhat antagonistic answer to grunge, CAKE's democratic processes, defiant self-reliance, and lucid yet ever-inventive music has made them a nation-state unto themselves, with no obvious peers, belonging to no school.
In addition to writing, arranging, producing, and performing their own music, they have taught themselves to engineer their recording projects in their solar-powered studio, which actually generates more power than is needed to run it, causing the building's electrical meter to run in reverse.
Heavyweight vinyl produced by RCA Records in 2022. Remastered by Patrick Olguin at Velvet Tone Studios.
