Alright, I wanted to raise a few minor things before listing:
The article does not have a "band members" section that summarizes the past and present members in list or table form. (
Example,
example)
Looks a bit grotty, to be honest; what I really want to do in future is one of those swish horizontal timeline things we have for arbcom tranches and the like, but that'll need some free time.

I assume this band has received music awards and nominations in its time. If so, it would be good to include an "Awards & nominations" section that summarizes this. Again, can just be in list or table form. (
Example,

As far as I'm aware, they actually haven't (or at least, no big or notable or ever-going-to-be-bluelinked ones); they've consistently been fairly underground.

I just added an awards table. They've been nominated for one big award (the VMA in 2002) and a few minor ones (the California Music Awards in 2001). The list is thin, but it's there and sourced. Now they just need to get nominated for more awards...

Cake has a unique and distinctive musical style. While this is well noted in the article, it would be fantastic to include an audio clip if anyone is capable of doing that. Of course this isn't remotely required for a GA, just a suggestion. (

Otherwise, this article fairly easily meets the GA criteria. Swarmu |

I'd like to too; I'm going to give some Featured Sounds people I know a poke - we'll see if we can get something sorted.

Music influences
I'm personally a cake fan myself, but I'm a little confused about the influences. Most I can understand but
Iranian folk music Confuses me. Also, shouldn't that be linked to the main article instead of
Music of Iran? Sorry to ask about such a small subject. — Preceding
