KC. Genesis has never enthralled me like the good old King can.
Nothing to say here. Nothing at all. Nothing is easy.

The King gets my vote.... even though genesis is an amazing band with amazing music. but it's close especially considering how King Crimson is more about Fripps ideas then any other bandmember.... which as far as I know is not the case with Genesis...

Genesis is a great band. But the King is a monster.

Back in the '80s I kind of pigeonholed Genesis as Phil Collins's pop-rock band who occasionally amused with witty lyrics and had a history of making rather OTT abstruse stuff in the past. 

The Purveyors of Fine Pomp Pop: 'Would you like some prog with your cheese, sir?' 

In another poll they had KC vs Yes; that one made me vacillate for a while, but this one is easy: King Crimson

Both band has some highs, and some lows, but for me King Crimson has the more highs and the less lows.

Two of my favorite bands. I love them both, but Genesis.

Same issue for me as the other thread. Can anything by Genesis compare to In The Court? nope.

If bad albums/songs mean negative score, King Crimson wins

If only the sum of the good stuff counts and a song can't be worse than 0 points, Genesis wins.

I voted according to the first principle.

At least that's been his own
