4 out of 5 stars Spheres II: A continuation of classic Delerium.......2005-02-20

This is the second part to the Spheres' collection from Delerium and it delivers just as the first volume did. There are 6 songs all good length wise that continue the great journey that listeners started in part one. Again the 6 songs here would certainly make good music material for a sci-fic movie. This is Delerium at their best with Leeb and Fulber delivering 6 top-notch songs for the eager Delerium fans.

Pretty much the two standout songs on this album are Hypoxia with the intense industrial beats and Shockwave that sent delirios shivers down my spine. A must for any fan new or old of Delerium. Early Delerium lovers will enjoy immensely this classic CD.

5 out of 5 stars Delerium's finest point in it's musical evolution.......2004-09-18

The one point that I wanna stress here is that this is the last album that Delerium made before they sold out to Nettwerk... they were peakin'... Semantic Spaces was cool just for the fact that it was new to delerium... But for those of you who are shoping around and stumbled onto this page, and if you are a fan of music that was intended to broaden your horizons, don't hesitate to get this or any album before it by Delerium... each song on Spheres II was created with a crescendo that will blast you out of orbit... and you'll love the ride.

5 out of 5 stars My favorite Delerium album.......2004-03-12

I really feel that this album is getting a bad rap. I love everything delerium, and have almost all their albums. It seems that most people are rating based on the latest albums, which are no doubt good, but they are also rather conventional (for this type of music). Of course, being a tech geek, this may be biased, but spheres II is just the most hyper-space age album I've ever heard, and it is extremely relaxing and invigorating at the same time. I especially love the first few tracks on here, particularly Shockwave. The fact that this CD also has very few vocals appeals to me, since you can here ethereal female voices with many groups and genres. In short, I listen to Poem, Karma, and Semantic Spaces maybe every few weeks on my mp3 player, but this one several times a week. For space-age sound buffs and all techno lovers, this is definitely a great buy.

1 out of 5 stars moNOtoNOus!.......2002-11-18

A no no CD...
After the first track you feel you are wasting time with your ears/years. Bill Leeb & Rhys Fulber were still trying to discover themselves with their earlier works here - a well excused understanding. Being your fan you guys are forgiven. If you find this album at [Amazon.com] which says this CD is currently not availible consider it a wise move on [Amazon.com's] part or read the first sentence again.

5 out of 5 stars Classic Delerium.......2002-03-03

I wasn't particularly wild about "Spheres" but I was awfully curious to hear "Spheres vol.2". The songs on "Spheres" didn't strike a chord with me like on their more recent albums from "Semantic Spaces" to "Poem", then again I immediately loved the group's early album "Syrophrenikan" with its hypnotic African tribal beats. "Spheres" just didn't move me. The album isn't bad, it was just a bit too weird for me, and I love unconventional music.

The first time I listened to "Spheres vol.2", I was surprised to find myself enjoying this album immensely. The songs were the songs I was expecting to hear on the first "Spheres" album. There is a sense of cohension on this album without the songs sounding the same. Plus the songs are more melodic while maintaining that abstract ambient sound that can also be found on "Spheres". Now while the songs on "Spheres" were too long for my tastes, I had no problem sitting through the 5-10 minute long tracks. "Spheres vol.2" would be the ideal soundtrack for a modern science fiction film. That mysterious, haunting vibe permeates throughout this entire album. I'm glad I picked up this album when I wasn't really sure if I wanted to after being disappointed with "Spheres".
