From the Holy Mountain website:
The Davis Redford Triad is the solo vehicle for occasional Faust guitar-player Steven Wray Lobdell. His previous album, The Mystical Path of the Number Eighty Six was hailed as "a limber sonic attack that sounds like 1,000 chattering meth-soaked bats being chased through the caves of Sun Ra's Atlantis by a litter of ax-wielding Chihuahua vampire pups, who just need some lovin'." The unique, distortion-laden guitar-playing on this album has endeared Mr. Lobdell to many who revere him as an untouchable "liquid bitch." This is not just some guy with a guitar and a talent pedal.
Ewige Blumenkraft's six tracks, especially the epic, 18-minute alpha state of "Plum Village," make up an exciting, new psychedelic chapter in the little known tradition of Carnatic rock. Other entries might include Ustad Bismallah Khan, Clark-Hutchinson Band, Sun City Girls and U. Shirivas, among others. Somewhere in a Las Vegas hotel penthouse, behind the security of dependable guards, deep beneath the quick of a reclusive billionaire's fingernails, this record has been described as "indispensable." It is time to admit your plane can't fly. How about your carpet?
