Episode 220: King Crimson (Pt. 2)

This week we're discussing every remaining album by legendary prog rock band King Crimson. This episode tackles 1981 - 2003, where KC mainstays Adrian Belew and Tony Levin first join the group. Despite some moments that are a bit dated (specifically in the production), Robert Fripp and company continue to surprise us with their sheer audacity in their songwriting. Maybe these albums aren't perfect, but they sure are impressive.   Intro/Overview 00:00 Discipline 11:13 Beat 27:15 Three of a Perfect Pair 36:39 THRAK 50:18 The ConstruKction of Light 1:11:34 The Power to Believe 1:26:42 What are they up to now? 1:39:13   ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   Patreon https://www.patreon.com/everyalbumever   Merch https://pandermonkey.creator-spring.com/   Mike's EP: Pander Monkey on Bandcamp, Spotify, Apple,   Mike on Instagram @pandermonkey Alex on Bluesky @octatron3030 Tom on Instagram @tomosmansounds   History Tom's stuff: Music on Spotify, Apple Podcast on Spotify, YouTube Substack Website   ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   Mike's Picks: Discipline (1981) -- Best Album THRAK (1995) -- Personal Favorite The Power to Believe (2003) -- Worst Album, Least Favorite   Alex's Picks: The ConstruKction of Light (2000) -- Best Album, Personal Favorite Beat (1982) -- Worst Album, Least Favorite   Albums we discussed this episode...
