Delerium finally making a DVD & a great one at that. Great picture and sound for all who like Delerium's new style with female singers. Now what we really need is a FLA DVD from Mr. Leeb and a long one please.
Overall this video is great - I've been a huge fan of Delerium et al. for more than 10 years, and this video does them justice (and is a nice look back at last year's tour/concerts - I went to one, and it was outstanding).
That said, I have one major complaint and one minor. The major one is that the video mostly just works in DVD players. I could only get it to work in one out of 3 computers I tried (2 PCs and 1 Mac). At least I got it to work on one so I could transfer the files to my computer to watch, but that's just inexcusable in this day of digital media.
The minor issue is just the production feel of the box - it feels slightly cheap. The cover art has pixelated images (as if the cover art designer didn't know how to design for print), there are no liner notes, and the DVD box seems like a generic box with just a sleeve insert. Of course, the DVD was a bit cheaper ($14) than mainstream movies, but even at that price, it doesn't really feel like a professional production. The DVD content itself seems fine (other than the issue mentioned above) - it's just the box that's not up to par.

Bill Leeb's crew does a magnificent job in putting together this excellent and entertaining musical extravaganza. Brilliant music that is expected from Delerium this is no different. Their live performance exceeds any recording in any album and just about all of the songs done here are better sounding. In using live instruments Drums, Guitar Base, keyboards in a live concert gives them a cut above over their musical counterparts in the same genre such as Engima.
Kristy Thirsk and her sexy good looks and moves along with her powerful and beautiful voice add to this performance in this DVD. Lea Nash the same. All of the songs here are excellent, favorites are "Self Saboteur", "Terra Firma", "Twilight", "Forgotten Worlds", "Incantation" and there are others. The only song that wasn't up to par as the original was "after all". Though Kristy did a fantastic job here I felt Jael was a little better. Still I gave this DVD from Delerium five stars and I'm usually a critic and hard to give five stars to anything. This one deserves it. The ambience, the beat, give it try you'll be hooked.
