The Sugarcubes
The Sugarcubes were an Icelandic rock-pop band formed in 1986 and disbanded in 1992. They received critical and popular acclaim in both the US and the UK. Albums include the following:
- Life's Too Good (1988)

- Stick Around for Joy (1992)
- It's It (remixes collection) (1992)

The band's sound was characterized by whimsical yet heartfelt lyrics, and the imploring, girlish voice of vocalist Björk Guðmundsdóttir, who later went on to great success as a solo artist.
Besides Björk, the band was made up of:
- Sigtryggur Baldursson (drums)
- Einar Örn Benediktsson (vocals, trumpet)
