After 3 releases in North America, "Where Broken Angels Lie", "Forward" and "Conflict", The Azoic grabbed the attention of the German label, Infacted Recordings. On February 2, 2004, The Azoic debuted in Europe with their release, 'Forward + Conflict', which sold out in 6 months! They quickly made a mark and moved up to the no. 4 spot on the DAC [German Alternative Charts] and no. 2 on the DUC [Dutch Alternative Charts]. In 2004, The Azoic released their fourth full-length CD, 'Illuminate' and continued to polish their trademark style, even adding a cover of "Obsession", the 80's Animotion classic, with guest vocalist Frank Spinath of Seabound.
After a video game release (featuring "Conflict (Turmoil Mix)" on Microsoft XBox's 'Dance Dance Revolution Ultramix 3' alongside vocal appearances featuring Kristy and several shows across the US and Europe, The Azoic continued to ascend. With 5 full-length releases, 2 EP's, 2 tours and over 50 shows, RMP chartings [US], 4 on the DAC charts + bullet on Native25 [Germany], 2 on the DUC charts [Netherlands], several magazine and webzine interviews (such as Zillo, Sonic Seducer, Side-Line, DNA Six, Industrial Nation, Gothic Beauty), a video, and appearances on numerous compilations, both nationally and internationally, The Azoic continued at the forefront of their genre.
Early 2007 brought a change in the Azoic's line-up, as Steve stepped down to pursue other projects. Kristy is continuing forward with new live members and shows across the US and Mexico. Their latest album, ‘Re:Illumination,’ immediately burst to the top of the electronic dance scene.
The Azoic is busy in the studio putting the finishing touches on a new EP, entitled "Corruption."
