His Name Is Alive - Ft Lake - 1998 album cover
 Ft. Lake is an album by His Name Is Alive, released in 1998 by 4AD.

Work on Ft. Lake began shortly after completion of the Nice Day EP, with the same newly-stable lineup of leader Warren Defever on guitar, Chad Gilchrist on bass, Trey Many on drums, and vocalists Karin Oliver and Lovetta Pippen. Defever stated in an interview around the time of the album's release that he was trying to have less control, and focus more on being the main songwriter and guitarist. He even went so far as to work with an outside producer for the first time, recruiting Steve King, who had previously produced Aretha Franklin and George Clinton.

The album's recording also coincided with big changes at 4AD. During this era, 4AD co-founder and president Ivo Watts-Russell sold the label back to Beggar's Banquet, from which he had purchased sole interest back in 1981; 4AD's distribution contract with Warner Bros. Records in the USA had came to an end; and Vaughan Oliver and his V23 design firm (whose distinctive covers had virtually defined the label's aesthetic) announced plans to break away from 4AD.

Most importantly around this time, His Name Is Alive signed their first real contract with 4AD. Previously, Ivo had a loose arrangement with Defever to release what he was interested in, leaving Defever free to pursue many independent releases and side projects. With the new regime, the relationship between Defever and 4AD was now more of a traditional contract between a band and a record label, bringing with it increased commercial expectations. Presumably, these factors account for the more accessible nature of this album.

Recorded over 1997 and 1998 at Defever's Time Stereo studio, the album was released on 4AD (CAD8009 on LP and CAD8009CD) in the UK in late June 1998. Due to 4AD's reorganization and their finding distribution in the USA, the CD was not released in America until November.
