Actually, me neither. What's the best GC album to go onto if you like this one?
The first one, "Journey To The End Of The Night" is certainly the most similar, and while it's good, it's nowhere in the league of LoD,DoD. That's another reason for the "Lord of the Rings" comparison: Peter Jackson had done a few things before LotR, but nothing that would have predicted what he was able to do with those films.
After LoD,DoD, they turned into a normal band, and while those two albums (plus an acoustic one) are good for what they are, it's a completely different approach and style.
However, Tchort was talking about some sort of ideas he had for LoDDoD parts II and III in the last couple years, and now that the band-form of Green Carnation has been destroyed, maybe he'll go back to the solo composer mode again. There's probably no chance of them living up to the original, but it's the best hope we've got right now.
Otherwise, yeah, I generally recommend ItW's "Omnio" as the next best thing.
actual singing i think by the in the woods chick
Yeah, and she of course is also the one doing the wailing on LoDDoD. To me, it sounds almost exactly like the wailing she did on In the Woods...'s "Mourning The Death Of Aase", and I absolutely love that song, so I guess it was natural for me to like the part in LoDDoD too.
