From the official Asia website:
Geoff, Steve, Carl and John have been busy in the studio, adding finishing touches to their new CD “Phoenix”, the first studio album from the band’s members since 1983. Eagerly anticipated by fans all over the world, “Phoenix” contains an eclectic selection of songs bound by the unique Asia trade mark.
The band is pleased that after 5 months in the studio writing and preparing the album, it will be delivered to Frontiers on time, ready for an April release, though the world tour which starts in March will feature a couple of the new songs.
