CAKE by I Divorced Life
The very first thing my mother ever taught me as I was a child: if you're not THERE on Bandcamp Fridays, you're NOWHERE. Thusly I present to you CAKE, because what else would I do.
"CAKE" consists of a cover song and two b-sides.
"Only a John Doe" is originally written by Danish solo artist Decort, and I somehow ended up having to cover it for a competition back in 2008. He did not like my take on it. Sorry not sorry about that, buddy.
“Black Spaniel” is a previously unreleased b-side from the “Petting Zoo” sessions. It was intended as the tenth song on that album, but in the very end it didn't make the cut. Maybe the song got cursed because I played guitar on it, while none of the other PZ songs feature guitar at all.
“Aros XII” is an absolutely terrible title, but this song just never got a proper title. It's another b-side, this time from the “Thrive in Ashes” sessions. It features my dearly and missed old tank of a pump organ. It weighed an actual (not actual) ton and I still fail to understand how I managed to drag that honking, dusty monstrosity around with me from flat to flat throughout my twenties. Thigh slaps and foot stomps aplenty too in this song.
Happy Bandcamp Friday to all!
