"Gravitas" is the thirteenth studio album by the British rock band Asia, released in 2014. It is the second album to feature the original lineup of Geoff Downes, John Wetton, Carl Palmer, and Steve Howe since their reunion in 2006.
The album showcases the band's trademark sound, characterized by melodic rock anthems, intricate instrumentals, and lush production. Songs like "Valkyrie" and "The Closer I Get to You" feature soaring vocals, dynamic guitar work, and powerful rhythms, while tracks such as "Russian Dolls" and "I Would Die for You" explore more introspective themes with atmospheric arrangements.
"Gravitas" received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised the musicianship and songwriting of the band members. While it may not have achieved the same level of commercial success as Asia's earlier albums, it remains a strong addition to their catalog and a testament to their enduring talent and musical legacy.
