While I can't endure the industrial-mangled-vocal aspects of their output, such as FLA, the darkambientdub music is excellent. Ephemeral is very good, vaguely ethnic loops and huge space ambiences. Early Delerium is in the vein of dark ambient (or even industrial ambient), and recent Delerium is more pop oriented with various guest vocalists. 3
