    Given Seventh Degree a fair few listens now. Seriously disappointed. Clive's atmospheric keyboards have mostly been replaced by generic 80s metal guitar parts. Hopefully their next album will A) redeem them and B) not take six years to release.

    @MetalDinner - Arena's "classic" album is The Visitor, although Immortal? and Contagion are also cracking albums. Better than anything by Pendragon imo.

    Being quite a big fan of Pendragon, I want to get into Arena as well. So far I've only heard the first album, and good it was, but it didn't do it for me the way Pendragon does. Which album should I listen to?

    The prog melodies of 'Contagion' are contagiously addictive.

    I'm loving the new album too... pretty dark atmosphere! Maybe not too proggy but still amazing!!

    I'm loving the new album more and more. Very intense. Different from the old albums, though. Even got some "cheesy" moments - which are great, too. And new singer Paul Manzi has its own voice, still he perfectly performs the old songs live.
