4 stars The most famous Popol vuh album, soundtrack of the Werner Herzog "Aguirre" movie.

Popol vuh delivers here a unique music, very contemplative, characterized by a slow and majestic progression, weaving a delicate, floating, ethereal atmospheric mood. Synthe layers help to build a spacey cosmic sound, while background vocals contribute to a grandiose and supernatural feel.

"Aguirre" offers a blend of repetitive and contemplative music, cerebral and lyrical, always inspired and original.

The SPV CD release, despite its average sound, features a good bonus track, actually the main theme's alternate track. A big classic from this essential german prog band.
