Starts off promising with the eight-minute Popol Vuh-like "Overture," and then continues with a few passable ethnic numbers, before devolving permanently into unmemorable, over-produced muzak. Once it's over, you will probably feel like playing the first track again, while asking yourself where the momentum went.
