The For Carnation - Reincarnation

The For Carnation in six years (1995-2000) only released two Eps and one full-lentgh album. Promised Works (Touch And Go Records, July 2007) is a compilation of the two Eps, Fight Songs (1995) and Marshmallows (1996).
I purchased the same compilation years ago but with a different cover. It was released by Runt Records (runt30), the same label who released Dear Sir the debut album from Cat Power in 1995. My surprise is that I can't find today any information about this label and that recording. I think Runt Records doesn't exist anymore... Anyway, I am happy that Promised Works reached the hands of Touch And Go Records.
The music from Brian McMahn (ex-Slint) is warm and mysterious. The guitars are moving in dark spaces. The For Carnation and Slint were among the most important slowcore and post-rock pioneers. I let you enjoy the extracts below.
