Not just that Florian Ammon, probably best known for his work with U2 and Rammstein, overtook the production of this album -- this extraordinary work was also laced by the voice of Charles Edward, singer with Seraphim Shock, who contributed his expressive, versatile and sensitive vocals.
"Ancient Delirium" is a masterpiece of emotion of an incredible musical depth. As we have come to expect from virtuoso bandleader Carol Tatum, the album comes up with a grand variety of acoustic instruments, blending perfectly with the electronic elements. Still, handmade music always stays the main focus, not another mindless sampling attack - and that's just what makes Angels Of Venice so special.
Stylistically, the album is a voyage that takes the listener to the realms of gothic, medieval, rock, pop and new age -- a mix that throbs incredibly homogenous and convincing out of the speakers and, almost unbeknownst to us, ushers in the coming fall. The vocals of Charles Edward are far more than just an addition for Angels of Venice: The singer completes the sound of this spectacular formation. Together, they reach a spectacular level of artistic and technical brilliance.
Let's close our eyes to experience this musical work of art in all its depth -- an album that doubtlessly represents Angels Of Venice's finest hour. The album is to be release via Accession Records on 25th September 2009.
