about

REVIEWS "X"

"This music, for me, has a certain indescribable magic or charm that is lacking in so much music that I hear.>

The lyrics are clever, the vocals, rich and textural, the accordian...sounds cool again (did it ever?)...and it definitely has some lovely british swank going for it. "
CAVEDOLL

"The Budda Cakes make me happy, make me smile, make me wanna go tell the world about their alternative take on modern music. The Budda Cakes are just such a pleasure to partake of - their music is refreshingly strange, their sound is delightfully unusual, their lyrics are so beautifully 'normal'. Yep, I like The Budda Cakes muchly!!

'X' is The Budda Cakes' new album - a pretty stunning work that can sound glib and tongue in cheek yet it's amazingly original and thoroughly enjoyable. Just a three-piece maybe but with their armoury of instruments and accessories that most bands would leave in the second-hand shop, The Budda Cakes make a wonderfully intoxicating 'noise', they sound as if they really enjoy themselves and their enthusiasm is contagious.>

The Budda Cakes make great music, they refuse to be pigeonholed, they challenge musical normality and I love everything they do!!" TOXIC PETE

"Fractious and haphazard as a raging manic-depressive, “X” exudes a quirky sense of mystery from beginning to end. Loaded with frantic references to Central London and accompanied by a flurry of accordion-like harmonium notes....

Resting somewhere between giddiness and raving insanity, “X” is by turns both an irrepressibly hyperactive and eerily tender slice of experimentalism."
Faye Coulman / GLASSWERK
