As reported on SDE back in April, The Cardigans will release a B-sides/rarities compilation – in two volumes – called The Rest of the Best. These covers some of the bands recordings released as B-sides on singles, soundtracks and as bonus tracks on Japanese, French and UK versions of their albums between 1994 – 2006.
These collections have been compiled by the band themselves and remastered by Ryan Smith at Sterling Sound. There are separate 2LP sets and also separate single CD editions (one 2CD set might have made more sense, but that’s just my opinion).
The artwork is created based on photos taken by the photographer Martin Bogren, who worked with the band from the very beginning.
Both volumes of The Rest of the Best will be released on 6 September 2024, via UMR.
