dbo:abstract
  • Life's Too Good es el primer álbum de estudio del grupo islandés de rock alternativo The Sugarcubes. Fue lanzado en abril de 1988 por One Little Indian en el Reino Unido y Europa y en mayo de 1988 por Elektra Records en los Estados Unidos. El álbum fue un éxito inesperado y atrajo atención internacional, especialmente hacia la cantante Björk, quien pondría en marcha una exitosa carrera como solista en 1993. Conformada por veteranos de la cultura roQUera de los 80 en Reykjavík, la banda tomó elementos del sonido post punk que caracterizaba a la escena, con la intención de crear una interpretación jocosa del optimismo característico de la música pop, aspecto que se refleja en el título del disco. A pesar de nunca tener intención de ser tomados en serio y debido al éxito de su debut y obligaciones contractuales, The Sugarcubes lanzaron otros dos álbumes de estudio. (es)

The album was an unexpected success and brought international attention for the band, especially to lead singer Björk, who would launch a successful solo career in 1993. Consisting of veterans of Reykjavík's early 1980s rock culture, the band took elements of the post-punk sound that characterised the scene, intending to create a humorous take on pop music's optimism, which is reflected in the album's title. Despite never having intended to be taken seriously, and because of the success of their debut and their contractual obligations, the Sugarcubes went on to release two further studio albums. (en)

  • 《Life's Too Good》은 아이슬란드의 얼터너티브 록 그룹 슈가큐브스의 데뷔 정규 음반이다. 이 음반은 1988년 4월 영국과 유럽의 에 의해 발매되었고 1988년 5월 미국의 엘렉트라 레코드에 의해 발매되었다. 이 음반은 예상치 못한 성공을 거두었고, 특히 1993년에 성공적인 솔로 활동을 시작할 리드 싱어 비요크가 국제적인 관심을 끌었다. 레이캬비크의 1980년대 초반 록 문화의 베테랑들로 구성된 이 밴드는 이 장면을 특징짓는 포스트펑크 사운드의 요소들을 취했고, 음반 제목에 반영되어 있는 팝 음악의 낙관론에 유머러스한 시선을 보내려고 했다. 결코 진지하게 받아들여질 의도가 없었음에도 불구하고, 그리고 그들의 데뷔의 성공과 계약상의 의무 때문에, 슈가큐브스는 두 장의 정규 음반을 더 발매했다.

  • Life's Too Good is het eerste album van de IJslandse The Sugarcubes. Het is uitgebracht in april 1988 op het Elektra label. Het bevat grappige songs waar de excentrieke stemmen van Björk en Einar elkaar goed aanvullen. De song Deus wordt op liveoptredens ook wel als God gezongen, maar door de songtekst Deus/God does not exist kwam het als Deus op de plaat. De songteksten zijn overigens zeer speels en hebben op het eerste gezicht vaak weinig betekenis. In interviews zijn sommige van de songs wel nader toegelicht, maar dan gaat het vaak toch nog om fantasievolle dingen. De meeste songs zijn in het Engels, maar twee songs zijn in het IJslands (nl)
