I'm mostly a hip-hop guy, but occasionally there's a rock band that'll blow me a way. I'll be the first to admit that my sense of rock culture is pitiful (remember: I am a child of the 80's!). Jerry's always trying to sway me to the ways of Punk with his plethora of punk "classics"...which I can appreciate, but they never leave me frantically looking for my next "hit" of punk sonic goodness.Once in a while, I'll be exposed to a bit of Rock that I instantly "get". Cake was one of those bands. In college, I heard their smash single "The Distance" and LOVED it's perfect take on the Rock/Rap mix. When my roommate picked up the second album, "Fashion Nugget", I was pleasantly surprised that the whole album was as good if not better than that first single.Unfortunately, none of Cake's subsequent albums live up to the brilliance of "Fashion Nugget". Their first album "Motorcade of Generosity" comes close, but is hindered by some shoddy production.Here are two of the better known songs off of Fashion Nugget: "The Distance" and "Friend Is A Four Letter Word". The whole album is amazing and will always be a gem in my limited Rock collection!The DistanceFriend Is A Four Letter Word
