Foot of the Mountain is the ninth and final studio album by the Norwegian pop band a-ha. It was released on 19 June 2009 and reached #1 on the German Album Chart and #2 on the Norwegian Album Chart. In its first week in the UK, the album debuted at #5, their highest chart placing in that country since Stay on These Roads in 1988.
Foot of the Mountain was a-ha's last full length album before their split in 2010. However, they did release a further compilation album 25 with their last single Butterfly, Butterfly (The Last Hurrah).
The album marks a return to the classic pop sound that made a-ha one of the biggest acts in the world. As keyboard player Magne F explains, “It’s an album that incorporates the key elements that first defined the band: soaring vocals, synth hooks, yearning lyrics and melodic melancholia.”
