Voyage by ABBA

It’s a really odd experience listening to new music from Abba, when they are clearly a band from decades ago and honestly haven’t changed their sound at all. But it’s not a bad thing. It’s a bit of a rollercoaster of an album, dipping into many different genres, mixing up the tempos, and filled with optimism in places alongside what appears to be the depths of despair. A few tracks have stuck with me, including the lead song I Still Have Faith With You, but also Keep An Eye On Dan, which really feels like something we’ve not really heard before. They paint good pictures and keep up the interest, almost storyteller-like, I want to know what happens next. Good stuff!

This is a good opening album, it shows off their interesting harmonies and unique style. It’s a little bit dated at this point… but there are some highlights on there. Another Town, Another Train somehow got stuck in my head. Whilst I didn’t like so much Nina, Pretty Ballerina. But interesting to see what comes next!
