It’s been a long time for CAKE: since the members founded the band in 1991, since “The Distance” ruled the alternative charts (1996), and since they last released an album (2004’s Pressure Chief). In January, they released a new album, Showroom of Compassion, to mostly warm reviews, with fans praising the return of their signature wordplay and talk-singing by lead singer John McCrea. On Tuesday, they played a sold-out show at the Music Hall of Williamsburg, and tonight, they’ll play a sold-out show at Terminal 5.
