Voted for Creature by the Tea Club. Also suggest Trojan (26:09) by Magenta and Conglomeration (or: The Grand Pathetic Suite) (26:54) by Shamblemaths.

Arena. It's not their best, but it's still better than 90% of other prog.
I also like Visions, but it's also not the pinnacle of Haken.

Nice that you changed the poll to include it, I already gave it a vote too. If you do like 70's Mike Oldfield, you should like this one too. It's not often that an artist can come back to his younger and most acomplished sound (at least as far as I'm concerned) so long after, but this album sounds like it could have come out right after Incantations and not sound out of place, nor be inferior to any of the other previous albums.

I do like his 70s work. I should probably return to his 1975 Ommadawn first, as that was a particular favourite of mine of his and it has been considerable years since I returned to it. Then listen to Incantations again, which hasn't been quite as long for me. Then Return to Ommadawn. I still have only heard, other than bits and bobs, his original Tubular Bells rather than the sequels that without looking them up I will call Tubular Bells 2: The Bells Strike Back (aka The Revenge) and Tubular Bells 3: the Return of the Bells. The bells are back and this time it's personal.

^^ I have to second Dellinger's view here; it really would fit around the Incantations era and it's an album which will bear repeated listens. Ommadawn itself is not an album I've heard in a long time, and I will shortly invest in a remastered copy for my collection. Presently reacquainting myself with the remastered Hergest Ridge (I used to live at the foot of it!), in between my love affair with Magenta.

I just mentioned in another thread that I'm so much of an album person it's hard doing these song polls but Frogg Cafe, Setna and Shamblemaths standout for me. Picked the latter.

I've become quite the Battlestations fan in the last few years.
