Liked this one a fair bit (even though it would probably be a lot better overall in English). There's elements of industrial, prog-metal, even some melodeath...and, as others have pointed out, a liberal use of piano.
When it comes to metal for me, I look for something that's very definitive in a band's approach or sound. Sometimes that's an overwhelmingly good singer. Sometimes that's a crazy avant-garde level of variety. Sometimes that's really catchy songs. These guys don't really have the former or much of the latter, but if there's one thing they have going for them its a high level of technicality in the arrangements and more varied song structures than some of their ilk I've heard, with 'Masiina' being the closest thing to standout for me.
