Cake Recording Solar Powered Album

410w.jpg Cake - one of the most principled, enduring, self-reliant, and best-selling artists in post-alternative rock - are currently in the midst of recording their sixth studio album, with an entirely green twist: the new project is being written, rehearsed and recorded entirely with solar power. Rock Star Weekly reports.

Starting Oct. 13, the first of six ring tones based on brand new album tracks will be released through Cake’s mailing list. The first ringtone, titled “Long Time,” is only available for download to members of the Cake mailing list; to sign up, visit: cakemusic.com. Every six weeks, a ringtone for a new Cake song will be released via e-blast to all mailing list members up until the new album launch in Spring 2010.quotesmarksleft.jpg
