Rough Translation:

With their last album "A Blessing in Disguise" landed the Norwegians a giant success, not only in this country, and by the press and the fan highly were naturally celebrated. Green Carnation, which volume, which admitted musicians in such a way such as Tchort or Kjetil Nordhus resident, which created the break-through naturally also in their other formations long, wants it 2005 of the world to again show in form of its new Studioalbums "The Quiet off-jumps" that one lost nothing now also after over 15 years long in the business however at gloss. Since the last album in the year 2003 some has itself done in the camp of the Norwegians. Except solid route programs and DVD photographs, one filed also strong at the LINE UP. Which one did not change however, the studio was, under the direction Terje Refsnes ' the new disk was brought in. The fact that the man understands something about his handicraft is reflected in all 11 TRACKS of the new Green Carnation disk again. If one compares the last two disks with each other, one will not come despite everything on a denominator. "The Quiet off-jump" more complex and more multilayered failed, one acted now clearly more aggressively and harder, does not let however the there-melting, melancholischen arrangements not out of the framework fall. Therefore one will advance toward the first two TRACKS of the disk something with suspicions. At the latest with the driving "Just you think it's safe" and the slow piece of "A place for ME" then one the Norwegians will in such a way recognize, as they played themselves into the hearts of their fans. If one lets the album progress further and further, one will find ever more favour at the dynamic and melodischen Songs, which win more and more at complexity. "PUR-POLARIZE Door, pitch Black" is thoroughly equipped with dominant factors guitar passages, on the other hand one becomes with pure nordischer melancholy in "Childs Play - part I" confronts. This Song is an example for the contrast wealth, which the Norwegians present us here acoustically. Also one will find it at the melodischen "Pile OF Doubt" favour, falls nevertheless into the typical universe for Green Carnation with its in-usual guitar passages. The last two TRACKS are not despite all anything for weak nerves, because the two Balladen "When I which You" and above all the pianounterstuetzte "Childs Play - part II" press strongly on the tear glands. Nevertheless one should not be able to be irritated from the beginning of the disk. With progressing play time developed "The Quiet off-jump" active dynamics and might the last Zweifler nevertheless surprise. Whether one overtrumps thereby however the last plate, may decide everyone for itself. Fact remains that those can to still celebrate volume after 15 years music, which drags along and can emotions cause.
