These guys are a bit far out man. They play prog metal at it's most avant garde and technical but still with a semblance of melody. The production is very clean but not heavy at all. The vocals are surprisingly good for a Russian dude. The music is very strange indeed. It's very proggy with passages of odd music galore. Like for instance in this song you have a section from 3:40 onwards where you have some very cool and odd sounds from the keys. Becareful though there are some growls but not in a very annoying way though they are a bit pointless IMO. This is prog metal at it's most crazy. If you enjoy a challenge then Azazello is for you! I can't even say who this band sounds like. If you can spot the influence then tell us..

Hard to describe really, its so all over the place but in all the right ways. They don't forget the melodicism like some 'weird' bands. Plus the singer is much better than your typical Russian vocalist, granted that's not a very high bar to clear and he's certainly no Tommy Karevik but he's better than, say, the guy from Mechanical Poet imho.
