Product description

The Cardigans' third studio album, "First Band On The Moon," is a captivating journey into the world of Swedish pop, released internationally on September 17, 1996. This 11-track collection, spanning a concise 39 minutes, showcases the band's knack for blending catchy melodies with insightful lyrics. The album is perhaps best known for the international hit "Lovefool," which gained widespread recognition after its inclusion in the soundtrack of Baz Luhrmann's "Romeo + Juliet." However, the album offers much more than just this standout track. Songs like "Your New Cuckoo," "Been It," and "Heartbreaker" demonstrate the band's versatility and depth, while tracks such as "Iron Man" and "Great Divide" hint at their ability to infuse pop sensibilities with a touch of rock edge. "First Band On The Moon" is a testament to The Cardigans' ability to create music that is both accessible and thought-provoking, making it a memorable addition to any music collection.

This 2019 Reissue Remastered LP is housed in a gatefold, pressed on 180g vinyl.

  • Frustrating Album Packaging

    5 out of 5 stars
    KisgohUibgilvSeptember 30, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Oh man, what an amazing album / release. But why do they still use sleeves like this? It's like I need to be a brain surgeon to get that thing out without scratching the crap out of it, lol

  • Quality Vinyl, Minor Flaws

    5 out of 5 stars
    nyioramdyiaxatSeptember 11, 2025United States🇺🇸

    I'm awarding this vinyl 5 stars for its excellent sound quality and the overall quality of the pressing and packaging. I've always loved this album and got to relive it with this release, though it wasn't a flawless experience. My copy was so covered in paper specks stuck in the grooves that I had to give it a thorough wet brush cleaning before I could play it. Even after that, side 2 has a noticeable amount of audible scratches and a few tiny gouges that were distracting during the quiet parts. Apart from that, this is a well-pressed release that sounds fantastic. I would still recommend getting this one if you're a fan of this album, as my issues seem to be an exception.

  • Stunning Pressing Quality

    5 out of 5 stars
    WlintakJavgirdaudJanuary 24, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Good Lord, this pressing is absolutely stunning in every single way imaginable. Pressing: 9.7/10

  • Defective Copy Exception

    5 out of 5 stars
    YizbQazFilwikDecember 10, 2024United States🇺🇸

    I reckon someone else must've gotten a defective copy 'cause this pressing sounds amazing and blows the CD I wore out deliverin' pizzas in the mid-90s right outta the water. I've come across plenty of poor pressings, but this one's definitely not among 'em. Two thumbs up, would recommend!

  • Frustrating Pressing Flaws

    3 out of 5 stars
    wizimy767November 1, 2024United States🇺🇸

    Man, this sounds awesome, but those pressing flaws are so frustrating, on both sides even after I cleaned it with a wet vac and used an anti-static gun, gonna send it back

About The Cardigans

The Cardigans, a Swedish rock band formed in the small town of Jönköping in 1992, have carved out a unique niche in the music world with their eclectic fusion of pop, rock, and alternative influences. Originally bonded by a love of hard rock, the five-piece band—consisting of guitarist Peter Svensson, bassist Magnus Sveningsson, drummer Bengt Lagerberg, keyboardist Lars-Olof Johansson, and vocalist Nina Persson—quickly developed a sound that was both catchy and thought-provoking. Their music has evolved significantly over the years, transitioning from indie pop with a lounge vibe to the alternative sounds that defined the '90s. Known for their sugary melodies and insightful lyrics, The Cardigans have consistently delivered music that is both pleasing and memorable. Their official website, www.cardigans.com, offers a glimpse into their world, filled with personal touches and a love for endless creativity.
