Cake's New (And Free) Album

In Music

So it's not actually new, as it came out last year. But if you're a Cake fan, B-Sides and Essential Rarities is really amazing. Visit that link to download all the mp3s free.

The album has several covers in it. I'm generally not a fan of covers, but all of Cake's are amazing -- yes, all. Think "I Will Survive" and "Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps."

In B-Sides, Cake really flaunts its range by covering "Strangers in the Night," "Mah Nà Mah Nà" of Muppet lore, Black Sabbath's "War Pigs," Kenny Rogers's "Ruby, Don't Take Your Love to Town" and Barry White's "Never, Never Gonna Give You Up."

UPDATE: As Kristen points out, you can't download the whole album free anymore. The album is still worth getting, one way or another.

Comments

I'm not able to dl the mp3's - any hints? (I might actually be tech-dumb today).
