Somewhat true, they are worse than Amun Duul and Can but they aren't really going for the same sound.

Harmonia and Neu are more like that sound-- a sound that Popul Vuh are on about equal ground with.

If you knew anything about music you would know that its not just a simple pattern repeated for 3 minutes. Classical is much more complex and has been proven to stimulate the brain much more than the musical stagnation of the situation of the past century.

I read a bit of Tedlock's oral transcription, so it's a snapshot of a complex and living oral myth system. I don't think I finished reading it but I found the structure, its delimiting, both at the beginning and end, by the present, of the invasion of Christian mythology into their land, pretty interesting. iirc It begins with a prayer to Christian gods as much as their own. Akin, somewhat, to the Renaissance mingling of Greek paganism and Christianity. Much more interesting mythology than the Lusiads or Norse crap and the drawings are great as well.

The band is mediocre.
