1997 also saw lineup changes; bassist Victor Damiani and guitarist Greg Brown both left, prompting speculation about the band’s survival; McCrea noted that “Musically, there was a really great symbiosis and I really felt that it (their departures, especially Brown’s) was the most stupid thing in the world”, and said that he had considered dissolving the band. Damiani and McCrea have not been on good terms ever since his departure. Brown and Damiani formed the “new-wave influenced” Deathray ; their places within Cake were taken by Xan McCurdy and Gabe Nelson , whom McCrea persuaded to rejoin the band.
