Swedish music group ABBA announced Thursday that they are getting back together - and they'll be performing as holograms on their next tour.

"ABBA ARE BACK with 'Voyage', a brand new album and revolutionary concert," the band tweeted. Two of the album's songs are available to stream today.

The pop superstars, famous for their hits like "Dancing Queen" and "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!," are releasing their first new songs since the 1980s.

In a streamed announcement, the band also announced it'll be returning for a concert tour in 2022 where bandmates Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson, and Anni-Frid Lyngstad will perform as hologram "Abbatars."

The ABBA announcement showed a clip of the CGI performers as young versions of the pop stars decked out in glittering outfits.
