In the Court of King Crimson - The King Crimson Education/Review Thread

2008-01-22 01:25:49 by Seltzer in Music Banter
 
...Crimson is truly a dinosaur of progressive rock. As a band which is constantly changing its sound, progressing and innovating, they are the very definition of a prog rock band. King Crimson's sound has evolved over time and is darker than that of their peers. While King Crimson is undoubtedly incredibly skilled in the technical department,...

2008-07-21 20:30:52 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
...Crimson King has become not only one of the most important albums of King Crimson but also one of the quintessential albums that spawned the progressive rock movement. Often quoted as the birth of prog rock, the album certainly encompasses all of the characteristics of the genre that we have grown to love: weird, jagged guitar licks,...

...Crimson King and the roughly congruous In the Wake of Poseidon, King Crimson couldn't stay in one place for too long, whether because of the fact that they're a constantly evolving band, or because of drastic lineup changes... the Giles brothers departed along with Greg Lake who went on to form Emerson, Lake & Palmer. Gordon Haskell (from...

...Crimson. Now while it is arguable as to whether King Crimson's In the Court of the Crimson King was the first pure progressive rock album ever, it is certainly the most important album in the creation of the genre, and is the earliest progressive rock album I have ever heard. King Crimson created progressive rock and propelled themselves...

...Crimson Glory to legendary Warlord. I recognise that where Warlord were more epic this Crimson Glory are more Metal. But to the end the difference are all here. Another distinctive point of force of Crimson Glory is the mythical voice of Midnight that Jon Drenning's words, could scream to the neighbourhood dogs to every acute. I do not know...

Crimson Tertiary College of Highly Strung Arts 3 v Conformity High 2 Perhaps one of the most focused of all the Crimson releases post 74's 'Red' this certainly sheds some of the adipose tissue that caused the 80's cadets to stumble their way over three particularly sadistic obstacle courses designed by Sergeant Fripp. His and our reward is an...

KING CRIMSON - Starless and Bible Black (1974) [rated 3/5 by Finnforest]

2008-01-12 16:49:48 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
 
...Crimson titles the last few months but the experiences have been decidedly different. Whereas Lizard was a joy all over again and a masterpiece in my eyes Starless by contrast is emotionally indifferent and a tedious slog for repeated play. Its not that the album doesnt have some cool moments, it really does and I appreciate them. But there...
