This is one isn't one of my favourite POPOL VUH albums although it's still very good. The side long title track is the highlight here with it's medieval chants repeated over and over. Oboe eventually joins in as this continues until we get a change before 5 minutes as piano takes over. Acoustic guitar and sitar join in to help and this continues until electric guitar arrives after 9 1/2 minutes. A change after 16 minutes as the instruments become more pronounced until it settles down to end it. Quite a song. "Hore, Der Du Wagst" is pretty much piano melodies played over and over. It's a solemn tune. "Das Schoss Des Irrtums" is mainly acoustic guitar and piano throughout and it's brighter. "Die Umkehr" is mostly sitar, guitar and drums. I like the final minute the best when they lay off the sitar.
Worth buying for the title track alone. To confuse things more, there is another POPOL VUH record called "Nosferatu" (French issue) which is like a shortened version of the other album with the same name. They were even released the same year. Go figure!
