Also the fact that you say you dislike In The Court but just said In The Wake Of Poseidon is one of the few Crimson albums you like truly makes no sense... Do you not see any similarities between those two albums at all?


Yes there are but I feel that In The Wake is done a tinny bit better but that's me,

Whether you like King Crimson's music is not important. If you seriously deny they have any importance in relation to prog rock as a whole you are truly a fool or a troll, if not both.


I could they same about Rush and how they practically gave birth to Prog Metal but I won't, yes they did, King Crimson weren't Metal enough

I'm not denying their importance I just don't see why they are so great, that's all

that's all Moonchild is it's only minimalistic drivel baffles my mind that that album is regarded so highly, and Epitaph and the Title Track sound the same, I could really start to go off again but I wont. I like King Crimson a little, for Larks Tongues and In The Wake only

I actually don't like the Court that much either. But Lizard, Larks Tongues, Starless, and Discipline would be my choice over any Genesis album any day.

I don't get hurt by opinions. See, that would be stupid. If someone says that Brian Eno doesn't make music, I will ... "understand" that, but if that person starts rubbing it in on the forum, then it's a different story.

Not too tough for me. Genesis (pop albums considered and enjoyed). If we had this poll in `1970 and the choices were In The Court Of The Crimson King vs From Genesis To Revelations/Tresspass I would say King Crimson, but the Gabriel/Hackett days were phenominal, more than most prog bands could stand up to. I daresay my favorite band of all time Rush didn't produce the richness of prog in their hay day between Fly By Night and Motion Pictures(particularly the b-side of MP).

i figure a warning from a mod would do the trick, i mean the more we accept this behavior and just go "oh you, what do we do about you?" the more he'll think it's ok and continue to be condescending to other users
