Additional notes
The band, which was inactive from 1991 to 1998, is a natural successor of experimental/avant-garde group In The Woods.... The most recent line-up was dissolved on August 22, 2007. Although Tchort will continue to write for the project, there will be no more live activity from Green Carnation.
