Oregon's psychedelic outfit
Plants
(basically the duo of guitarist Joshua Blanchard and multi-instrumentalist Molly Griffith-Blanchard, plus friends)
debuted with
Photosynthesis (Strange Attractors, 2007).
The duo explores some interesting ideas, from
Photosynthesis
(organic, slow-motion music for flute, electronic and percussion that feels
like a soundtrack for a documentary on blooming flowers) to
the country-ish guitar shuffle Tumbleweed, from the
cello-driven droning raga Roots
to the gentle seven-minute carillion A Hidden World Exposed that slowly decomposes,
but none is fully developed (and only the last one is really original).
Psychedelic folk is an abused stereotype. It takes a bigger effort than this
to carve one's niche inside a crowded genre.
