"The Ark are really made to be enjoyed live. Calling Ola Salo charismatic is no way near enough; seeing him on stage has been described as a religious experience by the most unexpected people.



However, if you can't see them live, you can still enjoy Ola Salo's song writer skills, incredible voice intelligence and sense of humour on Prayer for the Weekend. The album is brilliant, with a little bit of everything for everyone. It actually didn't stick the first time I heard it, but the second time I fell so much in love.



My favourite tracks on this album are... nearly all of them. But don't miss



- The Worrying Kind - really, it's just one of those songs that puts a big smile on your face as soon as you hear the intro.



- Absolutely No Decorum - the first single from the album, and it's really the Ark at their best.



- Little Dysfunk You - definitely a favorite, largely due to the provocations in the first verse and a chorus that just sticks like glue immediately.



- Death to the Martyrs - serious in a way, but if you don't spend too much thought on it, it's hilarious.



- Gimme Love to Give - this one's pretty hard to describe because I don't know exactly what it is about it that gives me this warm, fuzzy feeling. It just does.



- Uriel - the album's only ballad, and I really didn't think it was all that impressive first time I heard it. But that changed somehow, now I cry like a baby every time I hear it.



Buy it, it's great!"
