Omega is an excellent set of songs that continues in the same vein as its predecessor, with the majority of the tracks being happy to stay mid-paced, gently effective in execution and uplifting in lyric. This is the spectrum that Asia, of all incarnations, have delivered best in and with tracks as strong as "I Believe" or the anthemic "End Of The World" this release is no exception. "Emily" is a jaunty piano led pop rocker that sees one of many excellent vocal performances from John Wetton, who thankfully after his health problems, seems to delivering better than ever and with the atmospheric mid section is one of the most involving listens on Omega. "Listen Children" has trademark Downes/Howe interplay, as they continually jostle past each other for the limelight. Downes fires off some wonderful keyboard dashes, before Howe wrestles back control in a restrained, yet vigorous manner that only he can achieve and the chorus is the wonderfully layered textures we've come to expect from Asia.
