12. september 2026 (!) feirer Green Carnation fullbyrdelsen av bandets episke albumtrilogi A DARK POEM, med en helt unik tre-timers konsert der alle tre albumene vil bli fremført i sin helhet, kronologisk og med en rekke gjesteartister, inkludert Kristiansand Symfoniorkester, på scenen.
Begivenheten markerer Green Carnations retur til Konsertsalen i Kilden teater og konserthus, hvor bandet gjorde sin store avslutningskonsert i deres comeback-år i 2016, hvor de fremførte deres legendariske album «Light of Day, Day of Darkness» i sin helhet, foran besøkende fra 14 ulike land i salen.
Bandet ønsker å informere tilreisende til Kristiansand om at hele helga vil bli fylt med en rekke arrangementer relatert til A Dark Poem. Mer informasjon om dette vil komme på et senere tidspunkt.
Experience Green Carnation performing their album trilogy, A Dark Poem, Part I, II and III in full!
Green Carnation will celebrate their epic album trilogy A DARK POEM with a once-in-a-lifetime 3-hour show where all 3 albums will be played in full with numerous guest artists and Kristiansand Symphony Orchestra on stage!
The event will mark their return to the main hall at Kilden Performing Art Centre in the band’s hometown of Kristiansand, Norway, where they performed the triumphant last show in their comeback year in 2016, presenting their legendary album «Light of Day, Day of Darkness» to a sell-out crowd consisting of people from 14 different countries.
No matter how long or where the journey has taken them, Green Carnation have always sought to climb the highest mountains. While founded by Emperor’s former bassist Tchort in the early ’90s, the Norwegians quickly amassed a cult following while blazing their own trail through fields of symphonic doom, hard rock, acoustic plucking and progressive metal.
Had they never returned from hiatus during the mid-2000s, the band would’ve been remembered for completing one of the most ambitious individual epics in metal’s vaunted archives. And yet, one mighty tale – or three, to be exact – continued to elude them. That is, until now. Two decades removed from its initial conception, Green Carnation have finally completed their masterpiece. A Dark Poem.
