I'm a krautrock maniac but I assume that this album contains really weak aspects. The musicians are good and the heavy rocking parts and psychedelic effects reveal some catchy moments, however the compositions suffer of poor ideas and some misplaced pseudo religious chants & harmonies. This last tendency doesn't work with the basic psych-rock weirdness in the background. "Inferno" is an aggressive heavy rock "trip" with Hammond organs and frenetic voices. The crying female voices added on it are out of place. The weakest part of the album. The best tracks are the melodic "Jemima" with its piano notes, stoned, desperate voices and a nice heavy-kraut groove, also the pastoral, meditative, acoustic & folkish "Du bist der eine Weg". "Engel des Todes" is a "stoned", aggressive, conventional heavy rock piece with weird crying voices at the end, crazy organs..."Folg Mir" is an other eccentric, dynamic rock excursion in the genre of Uriah Heep and Deep Purple. Mysterious, gentle kraut-psychedelica cut with touches of a wild heavy rock. Certainly not among the best but a few songs reveal impressive immersive feelings within a nice musical aesthetic.
