FLEUR DE FEU - Weep

In the Great Night is the first single from Weep, Fleur de Feu’s second album to be released on March 7th, 2025 through P.O.G.O. Records (CD) and Off Records (digital).
The song evokes a shamanic journey undertaken by Owl woman, a Cheyenne medicine woman who lived in the 19th century.
The track was recorded, mixed and mastered by Déhà (Wolvennest, La Muerte…) and it features special guest Matthieu Safatly on cello.

Fleur de Feu offers an intense, spiritual journey of epic proportions that spans a wide breadth of psychoscopic sounds. An array of traditional instrumentation conveys meditative explorations of the divine, while remaining grounded in its core message – the cyclical nature of life. In its presentation of expansive soundscapes cut with soaring, celestial vocals, it’s an album of not just personal introspection, but universal. 

The music of Fleur de Feu is a soothing, esoteric mix of guitar loops and primal rhythms layered with soft and spoken vocals, accompanied by the spacious guitars of Teuk Henri, the melancholic cello melodies by Matthieu Safatly, synths by Raphaël Rastelli, and James De Backer’s haunting lapsteel guitar. The percussion created by multi-instrumentalist Déhà brings the audience into a dream-like state which enables them to leave linear time in favour of “the sacred, non-linear time”.

Fleur de Feu was conceived of, and curated by Dominique Van Cappellen-Waldock, whose British grandfather was a member of the Ancient Order of Druids.
Dominique is the founding member of the Belgium based post-punk band, Baby Fire. 
The collective's debut album was released in 2022 via One Little Independent avant-garde subsidiary Caliban Sounds, recently launched by punk pioneer Penny Rimbaud of Crass. 

Weep, Fleur de Feu’s second album, was chiefly inspired by writings by Owl woman, a Cheyenne medicine woman who lived in the US in the 19th century. The album is a tribute to our ancestors, including a homage to Dominique’s father who passed away in 2023.
