anybody own this on vinyl? was considering getting the wax boxset, but it wouldn't be worth the price if they went el cheapo and just faded the song out and in at the ends and starts of the sides.

Never seen the box, have you got a link?
https://shop.prophecy.de/product_info.php?info=p725_GREEN-CARNATION---The-Trilogy--6LP-Box-.html
also available at https://www.grau.cd/ for a lesser price (though i dunno how their shipping price compares).
it's apparently limited to 333 copies.

That looks pretty special.
Everyone else, except Wolfking is wrong.

Last time I listened to this song was in May while waiting in line for Symphony X. Gonna have to give it another listen soon.

One of my favorite riffs of all time is at around 21:40.   :metal :metal
In high school my buddies and I built a Van Der Graaf generator.  You know, to get girls.

The only issue with this song is that when you listen to it you only get one scrobble on last.fm, whereas listening to other albums nets them 8-10, so Green Carnation gets less credit compared to other albums.

Wolfking actually sent me this song in my roulette, which is how I discovered them.  Now I own it.

Hey, check this out, I've done a cover of the guitar solo for kicks.  Pretty difficult to emulate perfectly.  It's not perfect but an attempt nevertheless. 

I still find myself listening to this song on a weekly basis.

Epic bump! I have just listened to Light Of Day, Day Of Darkness, and, wow. What a gorgeous song/album. As my fourth Green Carnation song, I am extremely positive that I will furtherly explore this band!

I was about to open a thread named "Green Carnation v. Light Of Day, Day Of Darkness", then I decided to give a sense to the existence of the search tool.  :laugh:

This is one of my favourite pieces of music by anyone, period. I love the atmosphere, and the buildup over the part from 33:00 to 38:00 to that awesome, awesome guitar solo is truly a thing to behold.

Still havent checked this out.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

good timing on the bump!  I just listened to this last night.  Awesome song.  Although "song" doesn't really do it justice.  It's a work of art.
Winger would be better!

Nice bump.  Definitely one of the greatest tracks of all time.  You guys have inspired me to have a listen to this again tonight.
