Four years after the publication of "ThreeFour", a commemorative album created by retrieving from its archives recordings performed by Claudio Lorandi, the unforgettable founder of the group, Phoenix Again came back with a completely new album that included songs composed between 1982 and 1990 , somehow marks their new course.
Look Out is mainly an instrumental work which, unlike its predecessor, has the merit of investigating the musical subject with greater improvisation.
The Thorgersonian references of the artwork take an enigmatic tone in the cover image: a female figure sits turning her back to the observer, the scene is bare and the few elements present (an ancient epigraph and a kiosk with Gothic characters) describe a cloistered environment.
An overall multifaceted album, Look Out, born of material composed in a bygone era, here modeled by a heavily renewed formation. The excellent ideas it contains open up new horizons that Phoenix Again will certainly be able to explore and develop in future work.
