"There was an earlier melodic rock band of this name in the late 1980s and early 1990s featuring Scottish singer/guitarist Dave Kelly and famed session lead guitarist Al Perkins. They recorded for Spirit(Sparrow Records) and won Album of the Year award for 'Ark the Angels Come in 1989."

Ark was a progressive metal band resulting from the friendship and musical collaboration of guitarist Tore Østby (Conception, DC Cooper, Giant's Playground, Hypose, Redrum, Headcrash) and drummer John Macaluso (TNT, Riot, Spread Eagle, Alex Masi, Yngwie Malmsteen, Powermad), who later joined up with singer Jørn Lande to record two acclaimed albums.

Lande, Østby and Macaluso were joined by Randy Coven (Steve Vai, Steve Morse) on bass and Mats Olaussen (Yngwie Malmsteen) on keyboards for their second effort.
