Cut With the Cake Knife was recorded by Rose McDowall in 1988 and 1989 following the break up of her group Strawberry Switchblade. Produced with the aid of several musicians in several studios, the album features songs written for the fabled second Strawberry Switchblade album. More importantly, perhaps, it showcases the honest, direct, and life-affirming songs of one of the greatest unsung songwriters of the modern pop era at a tumultuous time in her career.Like the veiled melancholy of her former group’s hits, Cut With the Cake Knife hints at a darkness beneath the gloss, a darkness that saw McDowall delve into more esoteric territory with her subsequent recordings and collaborations. Cut With the Cake Knife serves as the bridge between the pop music McDowall had been making with her friends Jill Bryson, Lawrence from Felt, and Primal Scream to what became a more extreme, deep sound informed by neo-folk and post-industrial music.Today, Sacred Bones is excited to present the remastered edition of Rose McDowall’s bubble-gum infused record. Remastered by Shawn Joseph at Optimum Mastering, the album is now available on Red with Bone White Splatter vinyl with new artwork.
