Review

Entertainment Weekly (5/28/99, p.144) - "...Sweden's sugar-pop stars dip into their catalog with the U.S. release of their first album..." - Rating: B

Title Note

This 1999 reissue of EMMERDALE includes a second bonus EP disc containing 4 tracks previously unavailable in the United States.

The Cardigans: Peter Svensson (vocals, guitar, piano, vibraphone, bass, percussion, bells); Nina Persson (vocals); Lars-olof Johansson (acoustic guitar, piano); Bengt Lagerberg (bassoon, recorder, drums, percussion); Magnus Sveningsson (bass).

Additional personnel: Magdalena Gratjova, David Ahlen (violin); Albert Eckerbom (viola); Anna-Maria Svensson (cello); Anders Nordgren (flute); Petter Lindgard (trumpet, flugelhorn); Tore Johansson (trumpet); Jens Lindgard (trombone); Ivan Bakran (piano).

Initially released only in the band's native Sweden, The Cardigans' 1994 debut, named after a British soap opera, is purely a pop delight. At first listen the songs sound as cheery and bouncy as the best in bubblegum pop, but there is an underlying melancholy never far from the music's perky surface. And as some of their titles might hint, songs like "Sick And Tired" and "Black Letter Day" are downright dark.

The album's highest point is the intoxicating, purely joyful "Rise And Shine," though the Cardigans' brilliant cover of Black Sabbath's "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath" is a conceptual masterpiece. This Minty Fresh reissue contains a second disc of highlights from the original Swedish version of LIFE, not found on the reconfigured US edition, including the delightful "Pikebubbles" and the nearly 11-minute multipart operetta "Closing Time."
