I saw this band live at Prog Festivel ("Babooinumfest") in this month. The live performance was incredible as well as their debut album. This band deserves to have the page at Prog Archives as a symphonic prog band in the traditions of ELP and Triumvirat! But Shalash Band combines these traditions with elements of the Russian classical music and a sence of humor!

Hi felonafan, yes, it was wonderful concert in such unusual place (building of old, not working boiler) with incredible acoustic :)) and warm atmosphere! Thank you for the support during that concert and for your support here at progarchieves!

Here is video from that concert, I hope it will be interesting:
