First Band on the Moon

First Band on the Moon marks The Cardigans' U.S. major label debut. The band's 1995 U.S. debut, Life (on indie label Minty Fresh) displayed The Cardigans' infectious mix of beatnik jazz and wistful '60s kitsch-pop, reaching #6 on the CMJ College Radio chart. This follow up shows the band fine-tuning their pop smarts and provides a strong argument that they may by Sweden's hippest export. First single/video: "Lovefool."
