Cake: Comfort Eagle
[purchase]
A broad condemnation of industry brandmaking and the material trappings of excess it brings couched in a bouncy, electro-poprock style reminiscent of Beck's Odelay days. One of my favorites from West Coast alt-rockers Cake, and a great example of their signature sound despite an utter lack of trumpet. And you just can't go wrong with lyrics like these:
There's no need to ask directions
If you ever lose your mind
We're behind you
We're behind you
And let us please remind you
We can send a car to find you
If you ever lose your way
We are building a religion
We are building it bigger
We are building
A religion
A limited
Edition
We are now accepting callers...
For these beautiful...
