2011, Haken's debut AQUARIUS was well-received by national media including Outburn, Decibel, Progression as well as webzines. VISIONS is yet another conceptual work encompassing science fiction-themes. The band has toured extensively in Europe highlighted by an appearance in Germany at the Night Of The Prog festival in support of Dream Theater. The band makes its US debut at ProgPower USA in September 2011. Haken marries bombastic over the top Prog Metal with elements of Symphonic Rock. VISIONS features the addition of a string section and audiophile production from Spacelab Studios in Germany.
