Delica - The Chemical Rift

If I had to pick one album to be the official Radio-Active-Music.com "club" cd, it would be this one. One of the things I love about Toronto band Delica is their obvious joy in their musical creation. The enjoyment of life just seeps through their music, creating such thriving tunes.

Their latest release, The Chemical Rift, presents us with some of their best work yet. Taking obvious influences from such masters at Depeche Mode, they’ve also mastered modern technology to create some of the most stunning electronic songs heard yet. There’s nothing predictable or tired here; each song is a creative new beginning in electro rock.

Some songs stand out more than others, such as “Succumb” and “Wrong About Me”, which bookend this album and are also available for the fans on their myspace profile. But I have to say, far and away of everything else, “Millisecond” is my absolute favorite track and will take its place in my top 10 tracks of the year. With such pulsating sounds and relative lyrics, this song raises the bar of perfection in the electronic genres. Indeed, this album shatters stereotypes of electronic music, showing the full range of artistic expression through modern technology.

Suggested Tracks:
“Millisecond”
“Succumb”
“Wrong About Me”
