So this was billed as "Progressive/Gothic Metal", which piqued my interest. But I should have paid attention to their website's URL: art-band.ru. Then I probably would've figured out that by "progressive" they mean artsy-fartsy instead of what I would consider "progressive": adventurous and complex. But the base of their sound is "gothic metal", which really should be interpreted as "female-fronted metal", most similar to Nightwish. This isn't really bad per se, and fans of the style might find something to enjoy (if they aren't bothered that everything is sung in Russian). But there's nothing here that's even remotely interesting to me.This album is freely available from their website.

Are you saying I have bad taste in music??? They are progressive and a bit Nightwishy but still they're pretty good.
