The Great Crossover Potential is the 14 track greatest hits album from The Sugarcubes, originally released in 1998. Emerging from the ashes of K.U.K.L., The Sugarcubes signed to One Little Indian in 1987. Fronted by Björk and Einar Örn Benediktsson, they gained international renown for the unique sound they cultivated, garnering fans such as luminary John Peel, achieving unprecedented success for an Icelandic band at the time and influencing the country's music scene dramatically.
Their debut album, Life's Too Good, was released in 1988, including the hit singles "Birthday" and "Deus," and was followed by Here Today, Tomorrow, Next Week! a year later, and their last, Stick Around for Joy, in 1992. After the breakup of the band, the members pursued their own careers, with Björk's solo endeavours achieving global success. The Sugarcubes re-formed for a concert in Reykjavik in 2006 for the non-profit label Smekkleysa SM. Hit tracks include "Birthday," "Hit," "Planet" and "Deus."
Heavyweight vinyl produced by One Little Independent Records in 2023.
