Title: Don't buy this CD.
Product review: I'm a long-time Delerium fan, actually since Frontline Assembly. I find it odd that this album has gotten so many positive reviews here. I consider(ed) Delerium among my favorite artists due to the seemless intergration of electronica, ethereal vocals and hypnotic rhythms--all tied neatly together with a bit of an experimental sounding edge. Chimera has none of these qualities. After playing the CD for the first time, I kept hitting the 'next' button, desperately trying to find a track that didn't sound like a prefab pop tune crafted for airplay. No such luck. The bottom line is all the songs sound the same; all of which would be right at home on the CD of the latest MTV pop drone. Please, please don't go out and buy this CD just because you loved Poem and Karma. Listen to it in the store or (gasp!) online first and then make your decision.
