Thirty years on from their multi-million selling debut; the original four members of Asia have proved that the blueprint that made the band so popular all those years ago can still sound amazingly relevant now. Is, as some are suggesting, ‘XXX’ the best thing that Asia have created? For me, not quite. However when you consider just how good the ‘Asia’ album was, and still is, the fact that ‘XXX’ runs it so close, is still a huge recommendation.
