fantômas - delìrivm còrdia

i bought this album today. 'tis great. it has a certain
dark and dreary horror movie-type feeling to it, but it is
still unique and somewhat indescribable. i really like the
feeling i get from the instrumentation and especially his
voice.. it gives it all a sort of intense eeriness, yet
light hearted, with an almost tongue-in-cheek feel mixed in
with actual seriousness. it goes from one extreme of
mellowness/spastic-ness to the other.
it.. reminds me of pink floyd, at times, for some reason..
probably, mainly because the bizarre atmosphere that seems
to inexplicably emit from the disc. at one point it sounds
like someone's fiddling with a keychain.

please give your thoughts on this album if you have some.

eep. i didn't know there was already a thread. i did
a search and nothing turned up. ah well.. this one has the
added "advantage" of the title's schmancy pronunciation
signs.

that's cool - there was another thread a few days ago as
well, but it also lacked the exact title.

on a semi-related note, does anyone know which language uses
the letter v in lieu of u/i> in a manner similar
to the text in the album booklet?

you've all got some good thoughts.

another weird thing is,
a few days before buying this at random, after only hearing
a few of their older tracks, i posted a track i made which
is really, really fucking similar to the music on this disk.
it's even got the same sort of congo/bongo type drum
playing.. and a bunch of reverberated ambient-y, possibly
surgical-type sounds. the similarity is a bit eerie.,
considering how infrequently i buy cds..it's strange that a
song i had made before would resemble someone elses so
closely.. i may have to abandon the song because it reminds
me of it too much, even if i did make mine first.
damn.

id be happier if it wasnt one big track, like atleast
individual tracks would satisfy me, thanks for not satifying

he probably just wanted to make it annoying and inconvenient
to find the place you wanted in the cd.

the whole cd is basically kool noises, nothing more

but when you pop one cd out at track 6
and you pop another cd in
its nice to be able to go back to the first cd and hit play
on track 6 again

now its like 70+ minutes, one track
kool yet still annoying

thanks mike

I should mention that page 9 off the debut is being used in
a Lynx deodorant advert over here.

the gruesome photos in this album's booklet add to the
overal "surgical" effect, but they seem to, in a way,
somewhat limit it to a "surgery concept album" ..
but it really has so much in it that doesn't fit into that
meaning/feel/vibe.. but much of it really feels like being
operated on.. or it's like you are blind and you are trying
to make sense of the sounds ocurring around you.
but the string-pullers are trying to confuse you..

anyone know what the title means, btw?
maybe.. insanity (or something) ________ ..
