The Cardigans will release their first “Best Of”

With a career spanning 14 years and over six million albums sales worldwide, The Cardigans are one of Sweden’s biggest musical exports. Now for the first time ever they are set to release all of their hits on one album.
“Best Of” will comprise 21 of the band’s finest moments from their six studio albums including their breakthrough hit Lovefool alongside Erase and Rewind, My Favourite Game, Carnival and I Need Some Fine Wine And You, You Need To Be Nicer.

The Cardigans (Nina Persson, Peter Svensson, Bengt Lagerberg, Magnus and Sveningsson and Lasse Johansson) had mainly Swedish support for their debut album Emmerdale, but their second album Life, released in 1995, made critics and music fans sit up around the world. A year later they were propelled to international superstardom by their track Lovefool (from the album First Band On The Moon) which featured in Baz Luhrmann’s blockbuster, Romeo + Juliet.

Best Of encapsulates a career in which no one’s foot has ever come off the control pedal. It brings together 21 gems from The Cardigans with a bonus limited edition double disc including b sides and rarities also available.

The 2008 remix of Erase/ Rewind by Kleerup (including Robyn) will also be offered as a digital download.

The Cardigans will release Best Of on Polydor Records on March 3rd, 2008.
