Actually, 3.5 stars....

(3 out of 5 stars)

"First let me start off by saying how very disappointed I am with this album... After hearing the amazing "Lullaby" through my 'Elevation 3' compilation from Earthtone records, I had high hopes and was anxious to hear what else Chorus Of Tribes had to offer for I did and still do find "Lullaby" to be an exceptional new age/world song. But now that I actually own 'Myth' in its entirety and have listened to it on numerous occasions, I am wearily defeated and have given up all hope of it growing on me. As I was doing some cleaning the other day, however, I popped 'Myth' into the CD player and found it to be extremely relaxing to listen to while exhausting my energy.



For the most part, songs like "Into Morroco" and "Inception" flow hypnotically with sound-waves of peaceful serenity, but on songs like "LoLo" and "Rain Song", the tempo becomes exalt with subtle trance beats and African tribal singing.



I absolutely adore "Marakesh", "Myth", and especially "Hiyahiyahey", but compared to "Lullaby", the rest of this album was a sad disappointment.



'Myth' by Chorus Of Tribes wasn't a total waste of money but when it comes to buying new age/world music, I'd much rather recommend 'Boheme' by Deep Forest, whose sound is in a similar but more accomplished style."
Powerful, Upbeat Blend of World Rythms

"My expecations were set very high for this musical release with all of the comparisons I had read of to Enigma and Deep Forest. Suprisingly I was disappointed to find this group did not sound a lot like Enigma or Deep Forest, but rather had an incredible sound of their own drawing on different world music styles. I felt this group was very sucessful, and this disk immediately became one of my favorites. If you don't believe me go to Napster and check out the music there, then buy this disk. 5 stars out of 5, 10 stars out of 10, you have to check this disk out."
