Norwegian progressive metal outfit GREEN CARNATION have teamed up with PROG magazine for the premiere of their brand new single titled “The World Without a View”. Composed, arranged and recorded during the Covid-19 lockdown, the band has dedicated their new single to their fans. Listen to the track HERE.
Vocalist Kjetil Nordhus comments: “This is a big day for Green Carnation, being able to share a new song that wasn’t planned at all before Covid-19. We managed to compose this in the strictest lockdown period in Norway in 2020, and then record it in the studio this autumn. The music video is made by Costin Chioreanu, and is a wonderful art video, showing how he made our cover art. We would like to thank Costin for his amazing work. The song and the video are both big bonuses this year for us, and hopefully also for our fans.”
2020 was going to be a big year for the band, releasing and supporting their first album for 14 years via Season of Mist in May and celebrating their 20th anniversary as recording artists. Approaching the end of a devastating year for the live music industry the band is happy for the opportunity to release new material much earlier than planned.
“The World Without a View” is a near 10 minute epic and is a digital release only. The recording has been financed by the band and is available for purchase via the band’s Bandcamp page. “The World Without a View” is recorded and mixed by Endre Kirkesola in DUB Studio, mastered by Maor Appelbaum Mastering. Cover design by Costin Chioreanu.
