Album Description
Available in:
Super Extra Gravity is The Cardigans' sixth album. It was produced by Tore Johansson who last worked with The Cardigans on Gran Turismo and since then with the band Franz Ferdinand. The album was released in Germany and Ireland on 14 October 2005 and in the UK on 17 October 2005. A Japanese edition has since been released. The first single released was "I Need Some Fine Wine and You, You Need to Be Nicer". The second single was "Don't Blame Your Daughter (Diamonds)." It was said that "Godspell"—the lyrics of which reference a conservative religious mentality common to the band's hometown of Jönköping— was to be the third single, but plans for its release fell through.

User Album Review
Nina explores the ill-effects of too much alcohol on a raging jealous tongue with the...
Super Extra Gravity follows the lead of 2004's earnest Gone Before Daylight, but with slightly harder, more jagged edges. But whilst lyrically Gone... is set in a bubble of an intense relationship going right and wrong, SEG takes inspiration from farther afield. Religion is one theme; in "Godspell". While "Don't Blame Your Daughter" reads like a letter giving her ex-husband and children's father a damned good ticking off. Nina goes on to explore the ill-effects of too much alcohol on a raging jealous tongue with the best song title ever, "I Need Some Fine Wine, And You, You Need To Be Nicer".
But dysfunctional relationships are a common theme, with old song "And Then You Kissed Me" gaining a sequel here. There are no great departures instrumentally and The Cardigans continue their evolution into a serious, spacious indie group with polished songs.
It seems that the ironic, chatty Cardigans of Emmerdale are gone forever, but they're still sounding damn fine.
