ABBA drops new album after 40 years hiatus
Agency Report
Swedish band, ABBA released their first studio album in 40 years on Friday.
However, fans hoping for more music in the future will be disappointed to hear this might be the last new venture by one of the biggest-selling bands of all time.
“I think the other three will say ‘this was the last time’,” Bjorn Ulvaeus, one half of the band’s song-writing duo who, with Benny Andersson, was responsible mega-hits like “Dancing Queen”, “Waterloo” and “Money, Money, Money,” said.
“I’m not saying never. There is always some open door somewhere. I hate to say this is it … I’m just saying I don’t think we will record any more.”
Formed by two married couples in 1972, ABBA have sold more than 385 million albums since their first hit “Waterloo,” topping the charts across the world until their break-up in the early 1980s.
ABBA Gold, a compilation of greatest hits originally released in 1992, recently passed its 1000th week on the UK Album Chart.
