Miriodor - Cobra Fakir (2013)

Montreal avant-proggers Miriodor begin the leadoff track of Cobra Fakir, their 2013 Cuneiform album, with arpeggiated acoustic guitar from Bernard Falaise; it's a somewhat surprising turn from the electric guitar master, and "La Roue" is not the only track where he unplugs. Falaise participated in Conventum 2012 -- an André Duchesne-led trio that revisited music from the late-'70s landmark folk-prog outfit -- and it might seem that the younger guitarist brought some Duchesne/Conventum sensibility to Miriodor this time around.
