Stick Around For Joy – The Sugarcubes – Audio CD – Pre Owned CDs (Arrives in 14days)

“Stick Around For Joy” stands as a luminous farewell from The Sugarcubes, the Icelandic collective that launched Björk’s singular voice into the world. Released in 1992, this album distills the group’s playful avant-pop and jagged rock sensibilities into their most accessible—and joyful—form. It’s a record that captures a band both sharpening their hooks and delighting in sonic mischief. Tracks like “Hit” and “Leash Called Love” swirl with infectious energy, as Björk’s vocals leap between exuberance and vulnerability, set against the backdrop of Einar Örn’s eccentric counterpoints. The production is crisp, allowing each quirky lyric and angular riff to breathe. For collectors, this is not merely a pop curiosity—it’s a crucial snapshot of early ’90s alternative experimentation, brimming with Icelandic spirit and personality. The album’s sense of play, unpredictability, and emotional honesty makes it an enduring listen, especially for those seeking the roots of Björk’s later innovation or a taste of a moment when indie rock dared to sound truly original. “Stick Around For Joy” is a vital keepsake from a band that made strangeness sound like a celebration.
