Listening diary 7th March, 2021: Green Carnation - Journey to the End of the Night (progressive metal, 2000)

I suppose if you twist your head a bit, you can hear glimpses of what would immediately follow this, a masterwork of long- form songwriting and modern progressive metal. But really, it's quite amazing how they managed to complete Light of Day, a 60-minute song, only a year after this, which makes most of its 10-minute songs feel like 60. Musically, this has some good moments, and it's got a nice gothic atmosphere which doesn't really come back as potent on any of the band's further releases. But it's just too long, and too repetitive to really justify it.

5.4 (2nd listen)
