Green Carnation Opening for Opeth

Green Carnation are carefully plotting their next step. The Norwegian progressive metal band are beginning the preparations for the follow up to Leaves of Yesteryear, which was considered among the best albums of 2020 by Heavy Music HQ, Angry Metal Guy and Metal Injection.

Their new album promises to be another dark and poetic chapter in a story that’s now lasted more than three decades. In the meantime, the band is honored to announce that they are opening for Opeth!

“This year, we are concentrating on writing and recording new music”, vocalist Kjetil Nordhus says. “But when an invite comes along to join Opeth for a concert, you don’t refuse!”

Green Carnation will join the mighty Swedes Summer Sojourn in Copenhagen on June 26 for a sold-out show at Amager Bio. 

“We are looking forward to the show in Copenhagen” Kjetil continues. “We hope to meet up with fans both old and new”.
