"A Blessing in Disguise" is the third full studio album of the Norwegian Progressive metal band, Green Carnation. The album was released two years after their previous album, "Light of Day, Day of Darkness". This album was a stylistic shift for the band, creating some more "live-friendly" hard rock songs as opposed to its sixty-minute-long predecessor.
