Love /The Ark ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ With a string of hit singles in Sweden, The Arks operatic glam rock sound has created a huge fan base since they broke out in the Autumn of 2000. Fronted by the flamboyant lead singer Ola Salo, The Ark burst on the scene in the aftermath of the britpop/shoegazing pop era. They arrived in a firework of flashy self-designed outfits, declaring open war to every written or unwritten law in the current Book of Rock. Their debut album "We are the Ark" was released in 2000 and spawned The Ark's National anthem 'It Takes a Fool to Remain Sane' as well as hits 'Let Your Body Decide' and 'Joy Surrender'. "In Lust we Trust" was released in 2002 and was the perfect follow-up, giving the world another slew of hit singles in 'Father of a Son', 'Calleth You, Cometh I' and 'Tell me this night is Over'. With their third album, State Of The Ark, one of Swedens most eccentric rock bands takes a surprising step in a new direction. The result is an album jam-packed with the kind of irresistible riffs, melodic hooks and energetic grooves most bands only dream of in short, its the difficult third album made easy.
