📌25 April 1988
The Sugarcubes
📀 Life's Too Good
#PostPunk #AlternativeRock #NewWave
35 years ago The Sugarcubes from #Iceland released their debut studio album.
This is a rare example of how an album and a band can be fundamental for the entire music movement of a nation and instrumental for promoting the country itself !
There were little news from Iceland, a country totally far from usual routes and general attention, #Sugarcubes... broke the ice!
Life's Too Good was recorded betweeen Reykjavík and London, where their first single "Birthday" (included in this album) had radio airplay in 1987.
The album was an unexpected success worldwide, in particular the eclectical and humorous attitude and amazing voice of the female singer was highly praised: her name was (and is) Björk!
In this album:
#Bjork Guðmundsdóttir – vocals, keyboard
#BOlafsson – bass
#SBaldursson – drums
#PEldon – guitar
#EBenediktsson – vocals, trumpet
