A-ha Lost Masterpiece ‘Echoes in the Attic’ Resurfaces After 39 Years
In a shocking turn of events, Norwegian synth-pop legends A-ha have announced the discovery of a lost masterpiece, titled ‘Echoes in the Attic’, which has been hidden away in the band’s archives for an astonishing 39 years. The album, which was recorded in 1983, has never been officially released and was thought to be lost forever.
According to the band’s lead vocalist, Morten Harket, ‘Echoes in the Attic’ was recorded during a particularly creative period in the band’s history, and features some of their most innovative and experimental work. “We were pushing the boundaries of what was possible with music at the time, and ‘Echoes in the Attic’ is a testament to that,” Harket explained in a statement. “It’s an album that is both nostalgic and futuristic, and we’re thrilled to finally share it with the world.”
The album features 10 previously unreleased tracks, including the hauntingly beautiful ‘Shadows on the Wall’, the upbeat ‘Lost in the Moment’, and the atmospheric ‘Ghost Town Lullaby’. The music is a perfect blend of A-ha’s signature synth-pop sound and the band’s experimental edge, with intricate instrumentation and poetic lyrics.
‘Echoes in the Attic’ was recorded at the band’s private studio in Oslo, Norway, and was produced by A-ha’s longtime collaborator, Ian Stanley. The album was initially intended for release in 1984, but was shelved due to creative differences and the band’s busy touring schedule.
The discovery of ‘Echoes in the Attic’ is a major coup for A-ha fans, who have been waiting decades for new music from the band. The album is set to be released on October 22nd, and will be available on CD, vinyl, and digital formats. A deluxe edition of the album will also be released, featuring bonus tracks, rare photos, and liner notes from the band.
A-ha has also announced a series of live dates to support the release of ‘Echoes in the Attic’, including a headlining show at the iconic Oslo Spektrum. The band will perform the album in its entirety, along with a selection of their greatest hits.
Fans are eagerly anticipating the release of ‘Echoes in the Attic’, and the band’s social media channels have been flooded with excitement and nostalgia. “This is a dream come true for A-ha fans,” said one fan. “We’ve been waiting for this album for decades, and it’s finally here.”
