I haven't listened to the Scorpions since the early-mid 80's, but remember liking them.
Just out this last week, Sting in the Tail
They decided to return to their 80's tones and recorded at the same studio in the Bahamas. I was a bit surprised how good these guys still sound. Some of the songs are a little hokey and there are the familiar ballads, but if you liked them in the past, you'll love this album.

Humanity Hour I (2007)
Their concept album is brimming with modern tones and style, yet doesn't abandon the Scorpions' sound. I like this album more than the Sting in the Tail release for the overall feel and depth it has.
