Organ swells interact with angular tones and propulsive pulses throughout, as the duo Le Fruit Vert cast intricate, vocal-led narratives that develop into a unique form of unearthly baroque-pop experimentalism. Passiflore reflects two artists engaged in a dynamic synergy with a singular vision and a deep understanding of their craft. Originally released in 2013 on cassette via Montreal based label Los Discos Enfantasme, Passiflore raised intrigue as an album steeped in sedated vocals, layered electronics, and field recordings. Portrayed as the "priestesses of melancholy", Andrea-Jane Cornell and Marie-Douce St-Jacques have since released their follow-up record Paon Perdu through three:four records (2017). Passiflore was recorded at home in Montreal, Canada between January and May of 2013. The new edition has been remastered for vinyl at Grey Market Mastering by Harris Newman (Godspeed You! Black Emperor, A Silver Mt Zion). "Honourary enchantresses-de-Montreal, Andrea-Jane Cornell et Marie-Douce St-Jacques, raise our gaping eyes to a misted sonic eclipse while slowly uncloaking their sounds of the witching hour at the pace and shade of pitch itself." --Nick Schofield, Weird Canada
