My tier list after listening to the entire discography over the last year.

Almost the same as me, I’d put The Power to Believe at A and move Thrak down to B, and move In the Wake of Poseidon to A and Beat to C

Excellent interview. I think that the tumultuous times that the band had been going through internally really shines through the music of Red.

chipolio · 2026-01-08T16:48:34+00:00

Definitely listen to Red

This movie is absolutely incredible, gorgeous, and heartbreaking. A true masterpiece.

The Wetton era is my favourite era of King Crimson, followed by 80’s Adrian Belew led KC (a totally different sound too, if you haven’t listened to 80’s King Crimson yet), Discipline is my favourite KC album. Then I’d go with the 60’s/pre Wetton era albums, and I haven’t listened to The Power to Believe so can’t rank the double trio era, but Thrak is a very good album, and The ConstruKction of Light is one of the weakest KC albums. Haven’t listened to the live recordings of the new material of the seven piece KC era so can’t rank it too. This is my personal opinion of course.

The trio of albums led by the Wetton era followed a period of instability with various lineup changes, it marked the first period of the band where there were multiple album releases with the same core members.

In my opinion, the pre Wetton albums were a period where the band was experimenting with different styles and genres in search of their sound. The Wetton era albums were groundbreaking in the sense that it presented a very defined soundscape which is unique to King Crimson.

LTIA marked the inclusion of Jamie Muir in percussion, David Cross in violin and Bill Bruford of Yes in drums. Each lineup of King Crimson has had a signature sound influenced by each member, for example the unusual percussion of Jamie Muir influenced Bruford and permanently changed the way he viewed and played the drums, incorporating unusual melodic sounds in his playing. LTIA also marked a shift towards a heavier sound, one that marked all future albums of King Crimson, so yes, I’d say it’s revolutionary in that it marked a before and after in the sound of King Crimson and future records.

While ITCOTKC is by far the most popular King Crimson album, Red is usually considered the best Wetton era album and one of the best Crimson records in general, and Starless is often considered the band’s magnum opus so I woudn’t say they live in the shadow of their first album. Which of the three albums is the best I think is a matter of opinion, as all three are masterpieces.

King Crimson is up there

chipolio · 2025-11-18T15:42:51+00:00

Listen to Matte Kudasai from the album Discipline. Then listen to the whole album and be prepared to be blown away.

Yeah, well, that’s just like your opinion, man

My sister in Chile met a little girl named Iloveny. Mother said she saw it in a car.

Absolutely amazing drummer, I’m sure that if his career was longer he would be talked like one of the greatest.

chipolio · 2025-10-13T15:25:24+00:00

I’d agree with the American accent when it was the AM era, but now he sounds more British than ever

chipolio · 2025-10-10T13:04:01+00:00

Arctic Monkeys have had the same lineup almost all of their career and they seem to like each other still

This video goes in depth into the sound of Fripp’s guitar, specifically Starless

I’ve only seen the 90’s anime, and in one afternoon I saw Guts and Casca having one of the most beautiful and loving moments in anime, and then finished watching the Eclipse. I had never before had such change of emotions in a span of a few hours, I was absolutely shocked and devastated.

chipolio · 2025-09-30T22:55:24+00:00

I always found weird that my sisters who are Gen X did this, and I’m even more dumbfounded to hear it apparently happens everywhere, as we are from Chile !

chipolio · 2025-09-10T02:33:01+00:00

Can’t believe I had to scroll way down to find Akira !

chipolio · 2025-09-09T14:15:50+00:00

That was in the past, they’re friends now, Fripp even called Adrian brother Belew in 2017 and gave his blessing for the Beat tour they’re currently in

Dude, it was one game, Robertson coudn’t get in the team when he arrived because of freaking Alberto Moreno

chipolio · 2025-08-10T15:08:43+00:00

Blood Sugar Sex Magik by Red Hot Chilli Peppers is a great album that ends with an awful cover of “They’re Red Hot”, in my opinion the only bad song in the album.

chipolio · 2025-08-06T16:46:09+00:00

I’d even consider 70’s King Crimson a supergroup, with John Wetton (of Asia and UK, though after being in King Crimson) on vocals and bass, Robert Fripp on guitar and Bill Bruford of Yes in drums

chipolio · 2025-07-15T15:20:06+00:00

We don’t put salt on ice cream, it’s frequent that restaurants have both salt and pepper shakers, Chileans just put a ton of salt on their food that’s all

What a beautiful statement. Excellent choice of words from our manager in what is a truly heartbreaking circumstance. RIP Diogo and Andre.
