The Visitors is the eighth and final studio album by Swedish pop group ABBA, released on 30 November 1981.
With The Visitors, ABBA took several steps away from the lighter pop music they had recorded previously and the album is often regarded as a more complex and mature effort. With Benny and Frida going their separate ways, the pain of splitting up was explored yet again in When All Is Said And Done. The major hit single on the album, One Of Us also depicted the end of a love story .

Listen free to ABBA – The Visitors (The Visitors, Head Over Heels and more). The Visitors album was one of the first records to be recorded and mixed digitally, and was the first in history to be manufactured on the new CD format in 1982 on Atlantic.
ABBA's final album was recorded during a period of major personal shakeups, principally in the decision by Benny Andersson and Frida to follow the same route to divorce that had already been taken by Björn Ulvaeus and Agnetha Faltskog. Both male members of the group would soon remarry, but at the time, despite all of these changes in their circumstances, The Visitors was never intended as ABBA's swan song - they were to go on recording together. That may explain why, rather than a threadbare, thrown-together feel, The Visitors is a beautifully made, very sophisticated album, filled.
