Delerium’s Chimera album has become an instant favourite of mine. The single “After All”, featuring Jael of Lunik, is one song I can’t help but play over and over. It’s very catchy and a simply enjoyable listen. The entire album is on par with the duo’s other work, though it’s lighter than both the Conjure One album and Delerium’s last effort, Poem. The mixture of female vocalists has a great sense of balance, as each brings their own personality and vision to the songs.
The bonus disc is a nice addition to the package. The unreleased track, “Stopwatch Hearts”, and the remix of “After All” make it an excellent, if short, listen.
I really recommend this disc. I have a feeling it will enchant most of you as it has me.
