Pop legends Abba have surprised and delighted fans by announcing their first studio album for 40 years.
Abba Voyage will be released in November, before a "revolutionary" set of concerts where virtual avatars will play hits like Mamma Mia and Waterloo.
The quartet, who split up in 1982, said they ended up back in the recording studio while working on the stage show.
"At first it was just two songs, and then we said, 'Well, maybe we should do a few others,'" said Benny Andersson.
In the end, they recorded 10 tracks - two of which were premiered during a globally-streamed press conference on Thursday.

Another one for that empty box of mine I think.
Odd thing, ain't it... you meet people one at a time, they seem decent, they got brains that work, and then they get together and you hear the voice of the people. And it snarls.

They're rehearsing for a concert in the restaurant district of London it's said.
The music is very loud. You can hear the drums from Nando's

Re: Mamma Mia!
As I have no street credibility on here music-wise I have nothing to lose, I actually like ABBA.
