Cake has pushed the parameters of pop music (of the alternative variety) since the mid 1990s. They define "sardonic."
The Sacramento group's blend of sarcasm and jangle rock hit big with radio hits like "The Distance" and "Never There."
Cake's sneering take on Gloria Gaynor's Disco chestnut, "I Will Survive" was another hit for the group.
In 1998, guitarist Xan McCurdy joined Cake. Xan had previously worked with ' 60s R&B enthusiasts, the Loved Ones.
The band's video for "Love You Madly" was a spoof on "Iron Chef," featuring celeb judges Rick James and Phyllis Diller. Find all your favorite Cake ringtones and Cake realtones below.
