Asia Releases “XXX”

Asia: XXXEighties supergroup Asia is celebrating their 30th anniversary with a new album entitled XXX. Featuring members of Yes, ELP, King Crimson, UK and The Buggles, the band’s current lineup includes bassist/vocalist John Wetton, guitarist Steve Howe, drummer Carl Palmer, and keyboardist Geoff Downes.

The new release is being hailed as their best since their breakthrough self-titled album.

“We’re very pleased with, and confident about, XXX,” said Wetton. “It encapsulates, lyrically and instrumentally, the essence of the band today. However, it is the very same four people that gave you the original, iconic album 30 years ago. If you loved it then, you will love it now.”

XXX is available in multiple formats, including Deluxe Edition CD/DVD set, limited edition vinyl and digital download (iTunes and Amazon MP3)
