** condition: VG- (some surface noise) / VG (small cut on front cover) ** "Settling down the partnership of Florian Fricke with Daniel Fischelscher that was started in the previous outing and, again, featuring Korean soprano Djong Yun on vocals, the fifth Popol Vuh LP also counted on sporadic contributions by Olaf Kübler on flute to follow the path set on “Hosianna Mantra” and “Seligpreisung”. A classic from the band's mid period -the most inspired-, the band keeps this simple instrumentation's formula without the use of "exotic" instruments. Overall more melodic than most others Popol Vuh albums, the music builds on drum and piano, shiny and expressive guitar solos. Some pieces are in a contemplative's vein thanks to quiet piano parts and Djung Yun's help on vocals, contributing to this trademark Popol vuh's meditative atmosphere.
The long eponym piece "Einsjäger & Siebenjäger" features energetic moments, repetitive and melodic developments with many breaks, changes and accelerations, lead by bright guitar with this slightly acid flavor, lyrical and virtuoso playing.
One of the best Popol vuh albums, from the golden era."
