Selected parts of Phase’s insights through the time
Excrepts from the Interview w/ Mika Magazine

About the Greek Audience
Q: What about Greek music scene in general. How well are you received by Greek public as a band? It depends on the city, we can either pack places or count the attendants using our fingers. We are known by name in the alternative circles, but Greek audiences have some strange habits and deciding factors…
the Dark Wait
Q: It’s been 3 years since your first studio album was released. ‘In Consequence’ was kind of psychedelic, progressive piece of work.
