Delerium - Faces Forms And Illusions - VINYL LP

Syrophenikan is the third studio album by Canadian ambient/electronic music group Delerium, originally released in 1990. While still firmly planted in the darker sound that defined early Delerium, this record also expands the influences with drones, heavy African percussion beats, and even hints of the future sounds of Delerium's Nettwerk era releases.

First released in the late summer of 1991, some see Spiritual Archives as a turning point album, a final of the of the band's origins before the beginning of the exploration to the newer sound. Possibly the darkest work in the Delerium catalog, with brooding melancholy soundscapes, and somber ambience.

Considered by some to be among the darkest of the early Delerium records, Morpheus is now considered a classic. Dark ambience give way to heavy beats, abrasive tones, trance-like rhythms and samples, ebbing and flowing, combining to weave haunting and disturbing audio voyage.
