The Cranberries Mark 33rd Anniversary Of Breakthrough Debut With Multiple Editions

(Reybee) When THE CRANBERRIES' groundbreaking debut EVERYBODY ELSE IS DOING IT, SO WHY CAN'T WE? was released on March 1, 1993, no one suspected that this unassuming band would carry a legacy that would extend three decades.

"We come from a small town in Ireland where things like that didn't happen, so it was fairytale material," says guitarist Noel Hogan. 33 years later, however, not only has their legacy lingered but it continues to grow.

On May 22, 2026, Island/UMe will release the special 33rd Anniversary Deluxe Edition of their premier album in seven configurations with assorted editions offering extra content, including completely new 2026 stereo mixes by the album's original producer, Stephen Street, track-by-track notes from the band, art notes from original designer Cally Callomon and photographer Andy Earl, assorted remixes, and exciting Spanish reinventions of "Linger" (featuring BRATTY) and "Dreams" (featuring ANASOF).

"It seems like it wasn't so long ago because we all have vivid memories of that wonderful time," says drummer Fergal Lawler. "We went through a few false starts before we finally got to begin recording with [producer] Stephen Street in a cozy little studio, Windmill Lane 2, just off Stephen's Green in Dublin. We knew Steve was going to do a great job of capturing 'The Cranberries sound'.

Having hit the No. 1 spot in both the U.K. and Ireland and selling over six million copies worldwide, Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We? spawned two Top Ten singles - the debut lead single "Dreams" and its mainstream breakthrough follow-up "Linger" which cemented the band's position within the rock world. The album highlighted the unique vocal stylings of Dolores O'Riordan (whose untimely passing in 2018 rocked the music industry).

Alongside new stereo mixes by Street and the dreamy remix of "Linger" by CHVRCHES' Iain Cook added to the expanded editions of the album are special Spanish mixes featuring two of Latin America's biggest buzz-making artists. The bedroom pop stylings of Mexican artist BRATTY transforms "Linger" into a Spanglish-inflected gorgeous ballad that pays special respect to the original. Oaxaca's ANASOF embraces the ethereal lushness of "Dreams" and reshapes it into a dazzling Latin tribute.

Punctuated by Dolores' unique and iconic vocals, Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We? created an indelible mark. Pitchfork hailed "every song on Everybody Else blazes a path towards catharsis... O'Riordan's recognition of her own emotional depths is affirming. Every matter of the heart is treated like a butterfly pinned under glass, a quietly complex entity deserving of appreciation for simply managing to once exist in this cruel world." Rolling Stone noted, "Over ethereal waves of sound, O'Riordan's enchanting lilt relays her innocent, autobiographical tales of love, lost love and more love."

Beloved by fans and fellow musicians alike (Michael Stipe once fawned "I couldn't believe that 'Linger' was the first thing Dolores wrote with The Cranberries - what a song!"), their initial popularity gained them opening slots for Duran Duran and R.E.M. Noel concludes, "Flying to L.A. to make a video and Michael Stipe visiting the set; sell-out gigs; limos collecting us from the hotel... we just soaked it all up. The rest of us were happy to hang out in the background, but Dolores really embraced stardom. Everybody talked about how at our early gigs she'd stare at the floor or the ceiling because she was nervous, but she very quickly learned how to fill the stage and work a crowd, no matter how big it was. Dolores had a wildness and an attitude - 'This is who I am, take it or leave it!' - which people loved." Pre-order here
