Granted, mass appeal or even radio friendly Fantomas had never. Even her last (Master) work "The Director's Cut" was the madness as close as the genius, but where there more or less well-known film melodies were verwurstet skillfully so missing the listener while now present third album "Delirium Cordia" any starting points. This album could confidently place in the record shop under "New Music". Mike Patton's brilliant voice used here more than an instrument. Understandable Lyrics were deliberately omitted, here it's all about atmosphere. An album that takes time until it ignites, a lot of time. While occur Fantomas the accelerator is no longer so mercilessly by as on their last two albums, but just could cause confusion. Attention is needed if one wants to survive the almost sixty minutes or even enjoy. Music to the way hearing is not. But If you take a little time, then the monster soon developed into a true diamond. Hardly a CD has given me in recent times as much scaring as this opus. Even if for most of the album has the feeling that you listen to any band but only Mike Patton, the computer pushes knobs to your heart's content. My recommendation: The best in the dark with headphones hear only so unfolds the truly frightening mood. That was, however, only people with strong nerves recommended. Just like the view of the awesome designed booklet that dark and dramatic images of operations, the mood of the album successfully caught a (pity that the book were taken from the images, impossible or very difficult to obtain is). So, top rating, provided that the listener wants to get involved in experiments and has possibly already collected experience with "New Music" of the caliber Olivier Messiaen, Pierre Boulez and Karl-Heinz Stockhausen.
