3 stars This Arena EP is made up of unused interludes an a few good songs, most notably 'The Healer'. 'The Cry' is also a fairly good song and it links the band to the dramatic/sentimental tradition of Marillion's type of neo progressive. Most tracks are however more like electronic music with little guitar and vocals. The Ep does form a whole and offers a variety of atmospheres. I did listen to it for a while and I can imagine some others doing that as well. If you don't expect to much this little record just might leave a strong impression. Heavy dramatic neo-prog has become a bit scarce as of 2020, whereas a lot of it has become particularly poppy.
