Okay, thanks to Andy posting a YouTube vid the other day, I’ve been checking out some Arena stuff and like what I hear. I know absolutely nothing about them. - Just wondering if any fans of them out there can recommend 3 albums to start me off? What should I look out for? Best tracks and suchlike…

Well, like you it’s thanks to Andyboy that I got to know Arena.
For some reason my favourite’s “The Visitor”.

The Visitor is a great album. Try “Inmortal” too. But I think, the best way to start is with Pride and Songs from The Lions Cage.
Tracks?:
Jericho
Solomon
Medusa
Fools Gold
Sirens
The Hanging Tree
In the blink of an eye
The Butterflyman
Moviedrome

Thanks for the info. Three albums arrived today, so I’ll have a good old listen this evening. 
Which Albums did you get? Thoughts?
My personal favourite is their most recent - The Seventh Degree Of Separation. Pepper’s Ghost and The Visitor are close seconds.
The drummer’s not bad, is he? 
Edit:Just discovered they’ve released a new album - anybody given it a spin yet?
Yes and I think its the best album they’ve done in a while, it took a while to get into, but I love it now.
Well worth a purchase.
So? Which ones did you get @Arcade and what did you think ?

Oh, I plumped for the first three studio albums Zaz. Thought it better to start at the beginning. - Up to now, I think The Visitor is my personal favourite. - Will probably buy the rest of their discography at some stage.
