像Primus和Barenaked Ladies他們一樣，Cake也總是小心地把握搖滾和搞笑之間的平衡。其頑皮，會讓人笑出眼淚的歌詞和偶爾設計誇張出眾的CD封面(如代表著成熟風格的《I Will Survive》)使的他們音樂風格常常接近於Dr. Demento的曲風。但是，相比你熟悉的那種新奇曲調，它的動人而又離奇的音樂又多了一些真實的東西。

Released in 2004, Pressure Chief marks Cake's tenth year with a set of sardonic, engaging alternative pop that shows the Sacramento band's economical sound unwilted after all these years. Chief features artwork and typography typical to the group, as well the familiar three-color print scheme and stiff cardstock paper. John McCrea's wit is as dry as ever, and his tongue has grown sharper with the addition of a social comment streak that occasionally goes quite cynical. Single "No Phone" decries the encroachment of technology, while "Carbon Monoxide" is an upbeat, Beatlesque number that nevertheless wonders cynically, "Where's the air?" Later, the wispily funky "Tougher Than It Is" encourages listeners to take it easy, because life's going to keep throwing curve balls anyway.
