Pretty neat title track. But otherwise meh. Least favorite so far

Okay, interesting, but not unexpected. Lizard is usually the most confounding and divisive from what I've read. Fripp himself has said for the majority of his career since making that album he's never understood what its fans hear in it, up until like just a few years ago now. For me it clicked really well right on arrival but I've cooled a little bit on it since, as it's actually not quite as weird as I thought it was when I first heard it.

 

It is really weird though.

I did read Fripp's entry where he called Lizard lovers 'very strange' lol, but I do understand the reason to love it, I'm just not one of those people who loves that specific thing. Not a big jazz guy, ya know?

I mean, I will say it’s very weird in general and it’s not just the jazz going on, most of which is most obvious in the title track actually. There’s a quality about it that feels like the album is being played by musical circus performers.

Islands - Album by King Crimson | Spotify

Now I really wanna know your thoughts on this one. Most fans seem to rank it pretty low, but it’s one of my absolute favorites.

Not really sure right now if I like it more or less than Poseidon. Maybe I revisit that later today, but I enjoy it, its a delightful record

Well I'm glad you like it! A lot of folks don't know what they're missing!

Its definitely more tasteful than Lizard or Poseidon, which I can certainly appreciate.

Paramore - All We Know Is Falling

Within Temptation - The Heart Of Everything

 

Within Temptation is currently opening for Maiden in North America. I think these are the biggest shows they've ever done here. I don't remember them ever being on any US festivals or opening for anyone too big here before.

Oh I know! That’s a bit why I played it, I’m still thinking about seeing that when it comes through DC. I might not l, but if I do I figure I should at least know one album

Is that the first time you've listened to them?

I adore this album. This is the end of the fantasy saga they started with, and generally speaking the end of an era for them. How did you find it?
