a masterpiece forever.......2006-08-01

this album along with "Spiritual Archives" are true gems. anyone who has even a slight interest in true and thought- provoking music should listen to these. in my opinion, the song "Aftermath" alone is worth a 5 star rating for the entire album. sadly the more recent Delerium is a far cry from the sort of synthesis that took place 15 years ago. the music making is still high quality but the spirit of those years is hard to find. get this album -- it is the real deal.

Stone Tower [Cleopatra] ~ Delerium.......2005-05-06

This 1991 release from Delerium harkens back to the olde (yeah that was on purpose, just like Olde English 800) tymes of the band when they created heavy atmosheric music that is awesome to use when studying or for meditation. For the recent Delerium fan, it will sound very odd and not at all like their later releases, i.e., Poem or Chimera. Still this shows that Leeb and Fulber are very qualified musicians and composers in their own right and have the feel to be able to change for each new recording. This is a grand album that should be bought by fans of delerium and fans of great music in general.

Stone Tower Delivers.......2005-02-16

This release by Delerium definitely delivered to the bona-fida hard core fans of Delerium. The music is certainly hypnotic, delightful to listen to and has some catchy tunes to whistle to walking down the street. For me the music of Delerium has become a release from the stresses of everyday life. What I love to do at the end of a hard week of work is relax and chill out with a beer and listen to most of the early Delerium CD's that this one I am reviewing is part of.
This CD is my third favourite behind Spiritual Archives and Euphoric. The song Aftermath I which is track 4 of the CD is definitely a definitive catchy piece of ambience. The bonus track 7 called Embryo is also a well crafted rythmic tune. Definitely this CD should not be overlooked by any keen Delerium fan.

Nicely creepy.......2002-04-08

This is a very solid release. I've had it for several years now, and it's my favourite Delerium album. Early stuff, but not suffocating and heavy like Syrophenikan or Morpheus.

There are 10 tracks on the CD, the last 3 are sadly untitled, Track 10 being the most notable one.

I just had a weird experience which prompted me to write this... I was driving alone at night, it's VERY quiet (rented car, got upgraded to luxury for free), in a sudden snow storm, driving into a town with no one else in sight, totally deserted looking, and Track 10 was playing. Hehe, spoooooky.

For anyone who's played Fallout 2, it's very similar to the track that plays when you're walking around desert/ghost town type places.

Solid Early Delerium.......2001-05-13

This is yet another of the series of incredible albums which poured forth from the synthesizers of Bill Leeb and Rhys Fulber from 1987-1992 (one per year) as Delerium in the "early Delerium" period--as defined by yours truly. This disc is pretty average for early Delerium, but considering that early Delerium is superior by several orders of magnitude to the crap passing for music on the radio these days, "average" becomes a compliment. Stone Tower is also somewhat less scary than other Early Delerium releases, not nearly as sinister as Morpheus or Spiritual Archives. I recommend "Bleeding", with its glorious sound cascades and stigmata references, the bleak landscape of "Tundra", and the disturbing Darth Vader goes Scuba diving sound of "Spirit." "Aftermath" gets honorable mention for being a darn good song upstaged by a track of the same name on Spiritual Archives.
