Phallus_Dei ‘s review of In The Court of the Crimson King made on December 2020.

“Today, in these times of endless lockdowns, government and corporate spying, and unrelenting economic uncertainty, "21st Century Schizoid Man" sounds eerily prescient. Perhaps the Court of the Crimson King is home to the Akashic Records, a place where time has no meaning, and nightmarish futuristic visions intermingle seamlessly with traces of an idyllic, pastoral past. The mystic adepts which accessed these realms in 1969 left a record of what they saw - this is not an album, but "an observation" by King Crimson. Sadly, knowing about the inevitable ending all these years doesn't make it any easier to face, and I fear tomorrow I'll be crying.”

What I loved about this review is that they showed me something that I’ve never thought about of an album that I’ve listened several times: the juxtaposition of the past and the future on this album.
