Swedish~ Stereo~

It's a big week for The Ark as on Wednesday they release their final compilation of best hits "Arkeology" and appear on tv-event that has become probably the biggest highlight of their career (and maybe start of its end?) - Melodifestivalen.
As it was officially announced earlier band will be touring during this year promoting compilation and later will break up forever.
Undoubtfully compilation has become huge present for fans collecting all hits of The Ark and except single "Breaking Up With God" it has included another song "The Apocalypse Is Over" - warm melodic pop-rock track with sing-along chorus you can imagine being performed in company of good friends, probably the best desicion for a final track - to wave goodbye smiling and not leaving fan-army in tragedy but with a feeling of light sadness.
Thanx for the tips about track to Being Blogged.

One of the most popular bands in Sweden and the winner of Melodifestivalen-2007 - The Ark is finishing its existance next year.
Earlier last Autumn The Ark shocked their fans by news that in 2010 they will release their greatest hits compilation "Arkeology" on February 23rd containing two new songs "Breaking Up With God" and "The Apocalypse Is Over", will go on tour during Spring-Summer and will break up. Explanation of this solution was their wish to go further and make something new and grow more but apart. Vocalist Ola Salo currently doesn't have any plans for his future, recently becoming father he sees himself only in this role for now but he's not going to end up with music completely.
Tomorrow The Ark will release their single "Breaking Up With God" - nice pop-rock radio-track sounding like sharp and epic U2's "Beautiful Day" softened being painted with glam bright colours of The Ark.
