Arena is a very, very different album from its two predecessors, Aqua and Aria, and represents a definite transition from the hair-band screeches - that the indefatigable, though often execrated, John Payne was waaay too fond of - into a more mellow and melodic sound that reaches its peak with "Aura." I was able to download "Into the Arena" and "Arena" online, and they were good enough to convince me to purchase the CD.

Silent Nation is the ninth studio album by British rock band Asia, released in 2004. It was the last album with longtime vocalist and bassist John Payne, prior to the reunion of the original line-up in 2006.

Aqua är det progressiva rockbandet Asias fjärde studioalbum, utgivet 1992.
Albumet var Asias första med helt nytt material på sju år och gruppen hade en delvis ny uppsättning. Sångaren och basisten John Payne medverkade här för första gången, han skulle sedan komma att ha en central roll i bandet fram till återföreningen av originaluppsättningen 2006. Även gitarristen Al Pitrelli, som tidigare spelat med Alice Cooper, var ny. Steve Howe hade lämnat bandet, men återkom som gäst på flera av låtarna.

Aqua ist das vierte Studioalbum der englischen AOR-/Progressive-Rock-Band Asia, aus dem Jahr 1992.

Aria è il quinto album discografico del gruppo rock britannico Asia, pubblicato dall'etichetta discografica Bullet-Proof Records nell'aprile del 1994.

Aria is the fifth studio album by British rock band Asia, released in June 1994 in the United Kingdom by Bullet Proof Records and in 1995 in the United States by Mayhem Recordings. Unlike its predecessor, which was recorded with the help of several guest musicians, Aria features a stable line-up consisting of vocalist and bassist John Payne, keyboard player Geoff Downes, guitarist Al Pitrelli and drummer Michael Sturgis.

Aqua was released on 8 June 1992 in the United Kingdom by Musidisc and 15 September 1992 in the United States by Great Pyramid Records. The U.S. edition features a modified cover and different track listing, in which "Little Rich Boy" is omitted.

Aqua was recorded at Advision Studios in Brighton, England, and produced by Downes. The cover artwork was designed by Rodney Matthews, known for his work with Eloy and Magnum among others, and featured the group's logotype designed by Roger Dean, who had created the covers of all previous studio recordings.

In April 1991, original vocalist and bassist John Wetton departed from Asia, discouraged by the group's lack of success in the United States. He was replaced by John Payne, who accepted an invitation from keyboard player Geoff Downes to join the group. This duo would eventually lead Asia through to 2006. Although being in an official capacity, two other co-founders, guitarist Steve Howe and drummer Carl Palmer, were involved sporadically, as Howe returned during the sessions having just left Yes again, and Palmer would leave soon, committing to a reunion of Emerson, Lake & Palmer. The line-up was completed by American guitarist Al Pitrelli, who collaborated with Alice Cooper from 1989 to 1991. Several additional musicians were invited as guests, including drummer Simon Phillips.

Recorded live at the Moscow Olympijski Stadium in November 1990, the album includes versions of the King Crimson classics Starless and Book of Saturday.

Phoenix is the tenth studio album by British rock band Asia, released in 2008. It was the first studio recording with the original line-up after the reunion in 2006.

Omega is the eleventh studio album by British rock band Asia, released on 21 April 2010 in Japan by Melodious Frontier and on 23 April 2010 in Europe by Frontiers Records. It was the fourth studio recording with the original line-up and second after the reunion in 2006.

Then & Now is a compilation album by British rock supergroup Asia, released on 13 August 1990 by Geffen Records. It consists of two parts titled as Then and Now. Then comprises songs from the band's first two albums, Asia and Alpha, which featured the band's original line-up of Geoff Downes, Steve Howe, Carl Palmer, and John Wetton. Now comprises songs recorded by the band after Howe's departure (including "Voice of America" from the band's third album, Astra).

Aqua is the fourth studio album by British rock supergroup Asia, released in 1992. It was the first album with longtime vocalist and bassist John Payne.

Started in 1984, it marked the return of Wetton to the group after his firing in September 1983. He had been replaced by Emerson, Lake & Palmer co-founder Greg Lake, temporarily, for the concerts at the Nippon Budokan in Tokyo in December 1983. The opening night of these shows, highly advertised as Asia in Asia, was the first in the history of MTV to be broadcast via satellite transmission. Following a two-month stint, Lake had left Asia and soon Wetton had been convinced to come back. The latter agreed, but made it a condition to his return that Howe depart the line-up. By the time sessions for Astra began, the group had recruited Meyer, a former guitarist of the Swiss hard rock band Krokus. This personnel change marked a shift in musical direction for Asia to a more edgy, slightly arena rock and metal sound. Howe commented in The Steve Howe Guitar Collection (1993) that when the album was done he was asked to play on it but declined because he didn't feel the material was strong.
