	Carnation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus) is a flowering plant native to the Near East and has been cultivated for the last 2,000 years.
		The carnation is also the symbol of the Portuguese Carnation Revolution.
		Green carnations are, or were, worn by homosexuals as a semi-secret sign of their homosexuality; the allusion was to Green Carnation, a lyric from Bitter Sweet by Noël Coward:

	Green Carnation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Green Carnation is a Norwegian progressive metal band formed in 1990.
		Green Carnation is the creation of former Emperor bass player Terje Vik Schei (aka Tchort).

		Green Carnation's "Light of Day, Day of Darkness" is one such song, although those intending to engage the song in such a manner should ensure that a solid hour of one's schedule is left completely blank for this period.
		Unlike Green Carnation's previous album, which was a collaborative effort, Tchort was the sole creative force behind the current album, leading him to describe 'Light of Day, Day of Darkness' as a solo album reflective not only of his life, but the realization of his own desires as a composer.
		While the name Green Carnation does seem to fit well with the band's current direction, it struck me as a rather odd choice for the band given that it was selected in 1990 during the band's original incarnation as an out-and-out death metal group.

	Green Carnation - Satan Stole My Teddybear
		Green Carnation is actually the project of bassist Tchort, who replaced Mortiis in Emperor and appeared on the landmark album In the Nightside Eclipse.
		Green Carnation, though some exceptionally brilliant songwriting, has created a song that magically flows from beginning to end as a resolute journey and completely seamless transitions between passages and movements.
		However, for Green Carnation's third effort, Tchort and his merry music makers seem content to cast aside unorthodox methods to release a very standard and quite unimpressive run of the mill rock record.

		To be fair to SOM they probably expected something in the vein of Light of Day when signing Green Carnation in the first place, and I know they were quite shocked when releasing the master of A Blessing in Disguise, which kind of collided with their plans for promotion and stuff.
		Green Carnation works a bit differently than most other bands I know, as the band members make their own complete preproduction of new songs instead of jamming them with the rest of the band.
		Well, as you probably know, Green Carnation started as a death-metal act in the 1990, and when figuring out the name, the early members put the meaning of rotten flesh into it; Green as in rotten and carnage as the human flesh.

		In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, a green carnation and a red tie or neck scarf signaled the same-sex interests of the wearers.
		The green carnation was particularly associated with the Wilde circle and provided Robert Hichens with the title of his 1894 satire, The Green Carnation, published just a year before Wilde's catastrophic fall.
		The colors of the original flags were hot pink for sexuality, red for life, orange for healing, yellow for the sun, green for nature, turquoise for art, indigo for harmony, and violet for spirit.

	Transcending the Mundane: Interview with Green Carnation
		It makes me feel very privileged because Green Carnation is very fortunated to have the blessing from both its fans and media, and it also allow me to think freely about experimenting and trying new stuff with the band, because it all is so very well accepted.
		I think its important to me to keep the distance between the bands I am involved with and going in a progressive style is very far from what I am doing with Blood Red Throne or Carpathian Forest, because it makes no sense to me to have 2-3 bands playing almost the same thing.
		Green Carnation is about experimenting and trying new paths that I haven’t walked before, as a musician and also as a song writer.

	Green Carnation - 'The Quiet Offspring' review @ into-obscurity.com[enter the underground]
		A few years ago, Green Carnation put out a masterpiece album with "Light Of Day, Day Of Darkness".
		To follow it up, Green Carnation have written "The Quiet Offspring" and it is quite far from this last disc.
		I don't think that Green Carnation could have, or should have, done another in the same vein as "Light Of Day..." because that album is one-of-a-kind.

	GREEN CARNATION Blessing in Disguise reviews and MP3
		Sure, green carnation is listed as a prog metal band but regarding most of the songs featured on this album I would not agree unrestrained.
		I was dubious whether Tchort and Green Carnation would ever be able to even match, let alone top Light of Day, Day of Darkness, the most universally acknowleged epic dark symphonic progressive album of the year, maybe the decade.
		The original music of Green Carnation, including splendid female vocalists and melancholic guitar riffs and effects, is almost gone in this album and virtually absent in the last one.

		That’s why people are saying that this is not Green Carnation no more and stuff like that, but those who are open-minded they will still listen to Green Carnation.
		So, when we started the band in 1990 we had Green Carnation in our minds like green flesh or green meat… which is sounded like a death metal band.
		When we reformed the band we thought that the name didn’t fit us any more but on the other hand we had in mind the first meaning of Green Carnation and we thought that I was very special and that’s why we kept the name.

	Green Carnation Reviews
		While it does have flaws, as a whole the song is unique, and original and very entertaining for those of us with long enough attention spans to appreciate the music.
		However I was fortunate enough to get an early copy of this album, which after just one listen had my ‘awed meter’ going damn near insane, and it helped to fully recharge my interest in the band.
		The Green Carnation of 2005 is however slightly different from the Green Carnation I heard back in 2001.

		In the last few years Green Carnation have developed into one of the most emotionally complex and intense bands around.

		I think Green Carnation will always be evolving as a band in constant search for something new.

	Blistering.com Review: Green Carnation - The Quiet Offspring (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		Led by the ubiquitous Tchort (also of Blood Red Throne and Carpathian Forest), Green Carnation has churned out a far more comfortable and accessible album than 2003’s A Blessing In Disguise.
		With better songs and arrangements, combined with a greater emphasis on immediacy, The Quite Offspring almost betters 2002’s Light Of Day, Day Of Darkness, but still resonates as a stellar display of AOR metal, if there is such a thing.
		By association, Green Carnation will forever fly under our metal banner as long as Tchort stays associated with his other projects and continues to release albums with The End.

		Green Carnation will still play the two confirmed shows on October 2nd (Lost Souls Festival, headliner, Kristiansand) and 8th (Tribute, headliner, Sandnes), with Tommy Jackson on drums.
		Green Carnation's new album will be released in early through The End Records in the U.S. and Season of Mist in Europe.

		Plus it's quite hard for being Green Carnation with the double bass drums and fast picking on the guitar and so on, mixed with extreme and melodic vocals.
		And he's a big fan of Green Carnation, so when there was the opportunity of stepping in, he was the first in line.
		Actually, there will be a new album from Green Carnation later this year, in connection to our 15th anniversary this year, but we don't talk about this yet as we don't want to put The Quiet Offspring in the shade of yet another album.

		While countless former fl metal artists are trying to create music that is operatic in its scope and sound, GREEN CARNATION actually succeeds.

		While dark metal as a genre is falling apart due to repetition and sub-standard bands getting signed by big labels, The End Records and GREEN CARNATION may be end up being two of the scene's saviors.
