Cant Believe Its Trudy

Apparently, before achieving infamy as Trudy Wiegel on Comedy Central's RENO 911, Kerri Kenney was in a 90s Alt-Rock outfit.
Enough said.
The only available track on YouTube from her band Cake Like boasts a traditionally bizarre 90s music video complete with shots of dolls clothes, electric waves atop TV wires, and an entire girl group semi-kinder whored. The song itself, however, does something slightly PJ Harvey and slightly Sonic Youth but its no wonder Kenney had to wait for fame. Her voice is unmistakably Wiegel and though she sings well enough, its hard for this generation to separate her from her television persona. I suppose when this video came out it wouldve been hard to separate her from the hoards of other similar acts - many of which were probably better, especially lyrically. For me, thats what sets 90s grunge apart from the music of other eras - the lyrics had more poesy and Cake Like doesnt seem to have achieved that. As far as my greatest 90s obsession, fashion: while I dont particularly like the look in the video, the two promo shots I could locate are looking pretty awesome. Light blue denim and black lace all around, and that, I can stand behind.

Anyway, just thought that was worth sharing/wildly amusing.
Thanks to Alex for uncovering this little gem.
