The Sugarcubes "Life's Too Good"

Life's Too Good was the first album by The Sugarcubes, which brought fame to lead vocalist Bjork. Through the first single, Birthday, the Sugarcubes received attention in Europe and the United States. Ammæli, afterwards released in English as Birthday, entered the charts outside Iceland, leading the band to put Icelandic music on the world map.

Birthday was chosen as Single Of The Week by both NME and Melody Maker in August 1987 and was also selected number 1 in John Peel's Festive Fifty for 1987. The album has been chosen as one of the 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.
