Devil's Masquerade (Az Ördög Álarcosbálja) is the 1972 album by Hungarian prog rock band Syrius. This is taken from the 1993 CD pressing released by Gong.

Excellent underrated 5-piece progressive jazz/symph band which is equal to many of the classics from Italy and England in 1972. Syrius would eventually disband and some of their members living in Australia from Hungary. I only have Devil's Masquerade which an excellent nostalgic album from the glory days of prog. Musically it blends scenes from old Chicago (ala Terry Kath vocals), Soft Machine (ie, Syrius has a great saxophonist), Egg (sometimes using an organ similar to that of David Stewart), etc. Devil's Masquerade is unimpressive at first but this album (if you give it a chance) may grow on you in a big way. It did for me and is in the upper half of my favorite albums from 1972.
