Phoenix Again 
An obscure (but brilliant) Italian rock combo PHOENIX were founded in 1981 (after the disbandment of a rock project named Gruppo Studio Alternativo) by the three LORANDI brothers – Claudio (lead guitar, voices), Antonio (bass), Sergio (guitars) – and Silvano SILVA (drums, percussion), all of whom had been remarkably influenced by 70s British progressive rock scene (e.g. Genesis, Pink Floyd, King Crimson, Jethro Tull, Gentle Giant, Van Der Graaf Generator). In 1986 they recruited Emilio ROSSI (keyboards) and their soundscape could get more symphonic. With the collaboration of many session musicians, they had recorded some material for releasing a medium, that had not seen the light of day until 2011.

PHOENIX were disbanded in 1998 and each member had performed in his own project. Upon April 15, 2007, a serious loss for them – the death of Claudio – started their plan of compiling previous material and releasing their album. Finally, “ThreeFour” could be released in 2011 under the moniker of PHOENIX AGAIN for the purpose of identification.

LogoS was born in 1996 as an italian progressive rock
cover band, playing mainly Le Orme and Banco del
Mutuo Soccorso.
The same year, the band grew to five people, starting to
compose its own music and making live performances.
Due to good feedbacks to its music, the band recorded in
1999 the first album, titled “LogoS, showing great songs
and lyrics, describing fantastic and unreal worlds, and
giving some philosophical points of view. Some classic
covers (King Crimson, Jethro Tull, Genesis) were added
and after some line-up changes, the band recorded the
second album “Asrava”, out in the 2001, that receives lot
of awesome and enthusiastic reviews.
After that, the band saw better days: it started to face
problem getting performance dates and audience places;
and some other line-up changes delayed the job on new
stuff. But, after all, the band carried on to produce its own
music and in 2010 Logos played to “Progressioni Sonore”
and “Verona Prog Fest”, opening for Biglietto per
L’inferno. In 2012, they played three times at Il Posto
Castello and opened for the well-known Genesis cover
band The Watch.
Out in the spring of 2014 for label Andromeda Relix,
“L’enigma della vita” is the third album and a Logos’
milestone: it has eleven tracks that take the band thirteen
years to wrote and record.
The album has received several good feedbacks from
reviewers and progressive lovers all over the world.
The band usually plays it live, reaching outstanding
performances at “Progressive Melody 2014” festival at
Giovanni XXIII Theater in Cusano Milanino (MI) and at
Club Il Giardino in Verona, an incredible SOLD-OUT
night!
These days, the band is pressing a vinyl version of
“L’enigma della vita” that should be available at January
2015.
