I do not hate Asia. I do not love Asia. I am not torn by Asia; I am torn by how anyone can make a living writing about them. I’m just puzzled by Asia. Jackie Lomax’s first album was called Is This What You Want? arid title-wise, no one’ll ever beat it.

I do not hate Asia. I do not love Asia. I am not torn by Asia; I am torn by how anyone can make a living writing about them. I’m just puzzled by Asia. Jackie Lomax’s first album was called Is This What You Want? arid title-wise, no one’ll ever beat it. Asia might’ve called their album that; they might also have called it At The Mountains of Om or Beyond The Ring Of Saturnalia too, so let’s just be grateful they didn’t call it anything. Point is, Asia is exactly what America wants these days: 100% art-rock, with fat trimmed.
