For Against- In the Marshes (CD)
Signposts: New Order, Durutti Column, Cocteau Twins, This Mortal Coil. In the Marshes is Minneapolis record label Words on Music's third in a series of album reissues by Lincoln, Nebraska's post-punk pioneers For Against. The record represents the darkest and most experimental period in For Against's nearly 25-year history. Primarily recorded on 4-track in 1986 during a break from the recording sessions of their debut album Echelons, six songs were eventually culled together to comprise the EP later released by Independent Project Records in 1990 for their 10' Archive series. Two exclusive bonus tracks are included on this CD reissue. In the Marshes is awash with faraway vocals, heavy coats of reverb, and Jeff Runnings' angular, growling bass to which Harry Dingman's Factory meets 4AD Records guitar noise is anchored. In the Marshes is reissued in a six-panel digipak designed by two-time Grammy nominee Bruce Licher (Scenic, Savage Republic).
Tracklist:
- Tibet
- Amnesia
- The Purgatory Salesman
- Amen Yves
- Fate
- In The Marshes
- Amnesia (Studio Version - Bonus Track)
- Amen Yves (Original Version - Bonus Track)
