Building on the sound they forged on 'A Blessing In Disguise', Green Carnation's fourth album, 'The Quiet Offspring', sees them expanding on both of their strong points: ultra-catchy straightforward metallic rock songs (the kind Metallica should be writing!) and spacious, melodic prog-metal tunes that are epic and beautiful. Another fine piece of work from one of Norway's leading bands in the progressive metal field. "The musical world is blessed to receive the gifts bestowed by Norway's most ambitious rock band, Green Carnation" - 9.5/10 (Terrorizer)
