Green Carnation - Journey To The End of Night

[MajestikMøøse]

This album rules. Everyone praises Green Carnation for Light of Day, Day of Darkness (which I feel is well composed album) but it is not the defining moment of their career. Their newest album, also well done, isn't their best work either. This title belongs to their (comparatively) little known debut album.

Journey to the End of Night quick background:

Formed by Tchort (Carpathian Forest, Ex. Emperor, Ex. Satyricon) and the Botteri brothers (In The Woods...),
Green Carnation draws fresh blood into the Doom Metal Scene with their concept album, "Journey to the end of the night".

A musical crash between Candlemass and early Pink Floyd - Psychedelic Doom Metal.

The lineup on this album features X-Botteri and Christopher Botteri of In The Woods... which automatically should have put it on the radar for you ITW... fanatics out there when it was released.

it is great, but I still prefer LoD, DoD.. by a little bit

 

[Dev]

It's the best because it's the closest to In The Woods...

 

[J.]

I like it, but someone needs to tell that female singer to shut up. LODDOD is the better release.

 

[Papa Josh]

I sold this album because I found it to be boring and pretentious as fuck.

 

[Demonspell]

Decent first effort, but no match for Light of Day or any of the ITW releases. The ambition is definitely there but I don't find it as memorable as the best moments from the above.

I feel sad that no one feels the same sentiments that I do.

I'm sorry, if it's any concilation, I do love LODDOD.
