Delirium

The Italian metal greats take the plunge into darker, heavier sound on *Delirium*. Lacuna Coil have mastered dramatic, symphonic metal—with their thick riffs wafting with synths and Cristina Scabbia’s siren voice. *Delirium* drifts into metalcore territories with double-bass drum breakdowns and throat-shredding growls. Songs like “The House of Shame” and “Ghost in the Mist“ reflect this shift, while “You Love Me ‘Cause I Hate You” and “Claustrophobia” brings out a new animal in Scabbia.
