    Ironically, giving up their dreams has seen Phoenix Foundation trimming off some of the cosmic fat and becoming more focused--worldwide success could be in the offing.

    In choosing to move down a more percussive path, the Phoenix Foundation set themselves a challenge quite different than those they had previously faced. 80-minute double albums are usually tough to follow, but they've chosen to reconnect with the spirit of the band rather than try to top 'Fandango' in a self-conscious manner, and in doing so have redefined themselves.
