Delerium’s Rhys Fulber and Bill Leeb lighten up their sound on Chimera, as the darker fixations of early records like Morpheus retreat yet further into the background. After Sarah McLachlan’s lovely turn on the single "Silence," and the massive success of 1997’s Karma, the duo have dutifully embraced their winning combination of ethereal female vocalists and ambient dance-pop. On Chimera, the formula yields a few worthy singles, such as the limber and catchy "Love" and "Run For It" (featuring Sixpence None The Richer’s Leigh Nash). And while the record too often settles for disposable, bland pop ("Touched" and "Magic," for instance), it also delivers potent hooks and moments of inspiration that will keep the band’s fan base happy.Review by Matthew Cooke
Delerium is easily one of my favorite groups. I have all their newer albums (Semantic Spaces, Karma, Poem, Odyssey: The Remix Collection) which I prefer to the gloomy darkwave of their melancholy archive days. And while their latest offering may not be their best, there's plenty of catchy tunes with beautiful female singing, making 'Chimera' (an imaginery monster made up of incongruous [out of place] parts) worth buying, whether a longtime fan or just a casual listener.
Null It may not be their greatest effort but it's definitely not bad. After a short absence to work on his solo project, Rhys Fulber returns (but for how long?), bringing with him his love of Middle Eastern music. It's also nice to see Kristy Thirsk come back with a soaring performance to close 'Chimera' with. It's songs like "Fallen", "Truly", "Eternal Odyssey", "After All" and "Returning" that make the merit of this purchase commendable. And like a lot of new releases coming out, this includes a bonus disc with a remix of "After All" by contest winner Andrew Sega and the amazing "Stopwatch Hearts" with Emily Haines, which reminds me of something you'd hear on Conjure One (ala "Center Of The Sun"). You can also view three of their music videos from your computer with the Quicktime player. On "Semantic Spaces" a man is wandering the desert sand dunes, and on "Silence" a man and a woman bind one of their hands with a rope, linking them together, running on a rocky seashore until they break free. "Aria" is the only video I really like though because it actually features all the Mediaeval Baebes.Review by Clarissa, Amazon.com
