Fashion Nugget [Explicit Lyrics]

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
The twisted cover of Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive" is a statement of intent, while the cool jazz riffs from the band's trumpet player are part of what makes tracks like "Daria," "It's Coming Down," and "Frank Sinatra" so original. "The Distance" is a funked-up jam with a Chili Peppers chorus. --Jeff Bateman --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.

it puts a smile on my face.......2007-06-25

This album really makes me happy. When I need to get a smile from myself or just about anybody else, I can just put on "I Will Survive." Truly, the entire album is big fun. Tons of great lyrics. Great horn. Groovy vocals. Just a really fun album.

Excellent.......2007-04-24

I tell you, to fully appreciate Cake, you need a decent pair of headphones or speakers. Fashion Nugget has awesome bass, guitar lines, and decent sound and a lot going on. It's easy to miss a lot of the details that make Cake so good, they pack a huge hit at times, but if you miss it, Cake isn't as good as they really are.

Enough of that, the music is great. There's country, jazz, rock, the band's sound is very unique. The horn is a great addition, as well as the drums, the many guitar lines, John actually sings, and the bass lines. Anybody who wants bass will like Fashion Nugget's basslines. The lyrics are pretty creative, but sometimes hard to figure out. Any creative lyrics takes a whlie to realize it's genius. No looking on Wikipedia or Arisfacts first, _______ cheaters!

Okay, I realize I can't do much after other people explained it better, but I think it's good. This one is sort of a gamble, try downloading a few songs (please buy, support the artist, you __________). Don't rely on sound samples on this one much, beacuse the sound will sound so much like _______, and you need good sound to do Fashion Nugget justice. Don't even bother with them, although iTunes has good samples, more than Amazon (ps iTunes is free). I'm stuck with amazon, because my internet _______ _________ _________. ________ AOL.

This is miles better than that bland waste Comfort Eagle. I might consider Prolonging The Magic (possibly the others).

CAKE.......2007-03-26

obviously reviews are based on personal opinions, which this will just be my own--but i personally love CAKE. continuing the trend of their sound, this CD will make you feel right at home if you're familiar with any of their other work. Def reccomend.

perhaps it's Abba, it's Abba, it's Abba.........2005-04-16

The song "Perhaps", which sounds like a collage of songs is actually half (gasp) Abba's Fernando! I'm wondering what other 70's treasures are hidding in this Cake..

great MUSIC!.......2004-05-26

Ok, we all know that Cake did not win any intellectual awards for their music...that does not mean that it will lower your IQ if you listen to it!! I love Cake because they are incredibly talented musically. Their lyrics are fun to listen to and make me laugh, but more importantly their MUSIC is superb and is not repetitive at all, unlike most bands nowdays! This is my favorite of their cds, I like every single song. Not only are the songs different from each other, but within each song are many different musical elements that makes this cd great to listen to! I definitely recommend this album. (I personally like the edited version...just my preference! :))

Another Great.......2002-02-17

I have all the Cake albums, and I think they are all wonderful. However, despite my partiality to Prolonging the Magic, I really like this album. The songs are the weirdest (with the most bizarre lyrics) out of the four albums, but the musicality can speak to anyone. I especially like "Friend Is A Four-Letter Word" because it's so lyrically simple, but musically complex.

Best CD in my collection hands down.......2001-05-01

You've probably heard the radio tracks: I will survive & The distance, for example. And they are great. But what this album offers is 10 or so other tracks that are genious...the horns, the lyrics, McCrea's deadpan voice...Cake's other two offerings are awesome, but this is the one that hasn't left my CD changer for 4 years. Not a bad song on the album. Check out Open Book, Stickshifts, and She'll come back...

Cake could not write themselves out of an open box.......2001-04-07

The lyrics to the song, the Distance make no real sense. They are cyphers for some non-human, hollywood-ized feelings. Don't kid yourself that there is any substance, angst or cleverness here. This is pulpy tripe all the way and if you buy it, you need a brain transplant 'cause you've got the creativity and wit of a dead cactus. These lyrics are as contrived as can be. You like this stuff?..., it follows that you're also a big fan of Survivor and Big Brother, and your cousin's been on Cops......twice!
