Product Description

For fans of The Clean / Chills / Triffids

“I cherish and covet this album in a way that I seldom do.” – Rockpool
“An unparalleled second album… Hard to believe there’s not one clunker on this release, but there isn’t”. – Alternative Press
“…introverted tension throughout, elevating miserabilsm into a near- chateric state and providing yet more pro of that the most fertile musical ground on the planet lies in [New Zealand].” – Jackpot
“In a year in which Nirvana has given garage bands everywhere hope of instant record-company cash, the Cakekitchen offers perhaps the truest alternative to the madness: great music.” – Chicago Tribune, 1992.

Multi-instrumentalist Graeme Jefferies is the given name of the fabled underground counterculture icon hailing from New Zealand, and his mainstay project, The Cakekitchen, has its roots firmly grounded in the pages of 1980’s New Zealand garage storybook which featured countless innovative artists, all of which huddled under the umbrella of labels such as Flying Nun Records and Homestead Records. After performing in the revered gothic punk act, Nocturnal Projections, and after the collapse of his previous Flying Nun group, This Kind of Punishment, The Cakekitchen emerged as an amalgamation of gloomy and introspective post-punk and indie, with a stronger focus on structured studio songwriting and thoughtful compositional approach – producing some of the most expressive and unique music to come out of New Zealand during the early 90’s.

Originally released in 1991 on Homestead Records, “World of Sand” is the second full length album by The Cakekitchen, highlighting the first live line-up of the band featuring the drumming of Robert Key (Expendables / Lanky), and Rachael King (3Ds) on bass. This formation existed for roughly two and a half years and these compositions were considered by many to be the height of the groups’ creative potential, with musical comparisons to the early material by This Kind of Punishment…pounding piano, maddening viola, numerous tape splices and oddball musical passages – along with several pieces recorded at home on a four track, lending a lo-fi, dark, and intimate feel to the album. Led by Jeffereies’ distinct baritone voice, the album is layered, complex, and darkly beautiful.

Long sought after by collectors and fans alike, “World of Sand” has been out of print and difficult to obtain since its original pressing in 1991. Dais Records is honored to reissue on vinyl in limited edition “World of Sand” along with the The CakeKitchen’s first LP (released the same year) “Time Flowing Backwards”, in remastered editions of 500 copies making these albums available once again to old fans while introducing these classics to new listeners.

Vinyl comes with a digital download code.
