So much excitement and anticipation brewed among fans and critics alike soon after the members of A-ha, whom called it a day (or two) in 2010, announced almost five years later that they would reunite albeit only for one album and a world tour. True to their words, A-ha eventually unleashed their most-awaited new album on September 4th. Entitled "Cast in Steel", it is the tenth studio full-length of the Norwegian trio.
"Cast in Steel" is yet another well-planned, well-written, and well-arranged masterpiece. It is steeped in melancholic poetry; cast in Pop, New Wave, and Classical sensibilities; and painted with catchy choruses and memorable melodies. The combined genius of Morten Harket (vocals), Magne Furuholmen (keyboards/vocals), and Paul Waaktaar-Savoy (guitars/vocals) has indeed returned, even if only for another short time, ready to uplift again the spirits of the fans they abandoned for five years. Through their highs and lows, A-ha’s loyalty to their style remains their strongest asset. The Norwegian sun still shines after all.
