I liked Frontline Assembly for a long time, especially when I was into industrial and found out about VNV Nation and was enthralled. I love the remix album "Rewind" that frontline assembly put out still, some great mixes of their pieces Not too much into that anymore because I found out it wasn't as good as other music (like IDM). Delerium however is still amazing, the female vocals are something I'd love to produce and with the vocalist I'm starting to work with I think we could pull that off in some ways. What do you guys think of Delerium? Songs like Innocente, Silence with Sarah McGlaughlin, Terra Firma, etc, etc |

ive personally never been so much into the front line side of things... somehow comes off really contrived and tacky to me. |
||||||||
|

| |||||||||
|
|
anyone who's ever seen them in action knows what im talking about... total cheese |
||||||||
|
|

|
Well yeah... but they're better than normal industrial That's like critiquing the music of gwar |
||||||||
|

the only industrial i was ever really into was puppy and crew, nin (at one time), ministry and their various side-projects, and soem stuff on invisible back in the day (pigface, dvoa, etc) |
||||||||
|

|
|
unless you wanna count stuff like the swans, but i think thats getting further away from "industrial" |

the only delerium i heard was the 'karma' album, which i thought was great. absolutely beautiful lineup of female vocalists they had there. i've got a hold of some other stuff, but haven't listened yet. |

Yeah, I'm not too fond of FLA anymore myself... NIN, Skinny Puppy, the guys who kept industrial going, they're amazing. I just like the contrast between the absolutely beautiful stuff from Delerium and the FLA albums |
||||||||
|

|
|
its kinda odd, the contrast... to quote glasse, it really gives off the "session-musician" feel a little bit. some of the earlier delerium was strange too, not at all what it became. |
||||||||
|

|
|
Definitly, it was weird watching the progression into mainstream sounds... and so many arpeggios... still, great vocal choices and lyrics |

I just went to the website and downloaded the single. Craptastic. Do they collaborate with DJ Sammy? |

I haven't heard their new album, the first couple, Karma and Poem, were good for what they were |

anyone else like delerium, i liked some of there earlier music. Whats there newer stuff like? |

Delerium has gone from more dark medieval ambient-ish sinisteresque moody stuff to pop radio. Which is not necessarily a bad thing (despite how that might sound). I can't relate much to their earlier albums, but Karma is my personal favorite because at the time, I was looking for music "similar to Enigma" and that hit the spot on a nice tangent. I found the consistency level of each track to be strong, not just the singles. Hummable tuneage too! Poem moved further away from that, and Chimera even moreso. I like a lot of Top 40 pop but the new Delerium just did not appeal to me much, despite tracks like "Eternal Odyssey" which was sort of a nod back to their sound in the late 90s. If I had to name a favorite song, it'd be hard but I like "Aria" for its odd yet catchy mixup of the ubiquitous Amen Break with Medieval Babes (really, that's their name). The melodies are magical and the video is classy too. |

i really like the track serenity off the latest album, seems like a good mixture of sounds from earlier albums. Is there any similar albums with this kind of music apart from Enigma? |
||||||||

Hm, well it's on a tangent but I'm a big fan of: Deep Forest - Deep Forest and Deep Forest - Boheme ("Marta's Song", with the ethnic singing and that violin solo is the BOMB) Later albums kind of cover different geographic regions but something in the tunes themselves wasn't as catchy to me. There was a list I found once called "Enigmatic artists" of similar musicians... BT and Sasha's unreleased "Warrior Song" is also very good. I've also heard praise for Amethystium, and let's see who else now... some Dead Can Dance, maybe? |

i LOVE dead can dance! |

The best from front line assembly is Noise unit's Drill. This album is fantastic... It seems bill leeb and them practically are their genre... and that album is the best example imo. |

i bought Delerium's Semantic Spaces for 2 dollars today at a flea market. it's a wonderful album. as good as karma? probably not. similar though. artists like delerium, deep forest, enigma, dead can dance, amethystium, adiemus, etc, often walk a fine line between interesting and cheesy. delerium and dead can dance less so than the others. |

dead can dance is fantastic; adiemus is at times, also. |
