 HugIt's Richard Wright, don't worry I used to get the two mixed up all the time, mainly on the cover of "Piper at the Gates of Dawn".Tongue  KC in fact does rule, I do find myself listening to KC alot more than Rush these days. It's just Rush turned me on to a whole new kind of music, and I'll always consider them my #1 band. If it weren't for Rush, I would not be here right now (on PA that is).

No, just expect a fight.   But there's nothing wrong with a little fisticuffs now and then.

that's not arrogance, Gaga, I wouldn't take advice from someone who gave Relayer 3 stars Ouch
Are you being serious right now?
He never is. Remember him and I had this one conversation that wound up its own a... well, the one that ultimately reached its cul-de-sac? Well, ... .

BTW, I don't like the Gaga. Never liked her, and probably never will.


listen to In The Court, Larks Tongues, and Discipline and then imagine this actually the same band", lol well of course it's the same lineup on all their albums,lol

I really don't think "To be Over" is underrated, Relayer has a very high rating here. Fantastic song though.

If the criteria is the same as for Rush, then we have:
In the Court of the Crimson King
Lizard
Islands
Larks' Tongues in Aspic
Starless and Bible Black
Red
Discipline
The ConstruKction of Light (yes I said it)
The Power to Believe
practically everything from in the court to the power to believe is gold to me (but these ones listed are gold gold gold).

Eh?

I really love In the Wake (4 stars) but I don't think it's something special because it's like In the Court with a few signs of what's to come (Cat Food).

I just made a major discovery about the Rush vs. King Crimson battle here on PA, I found that after the first 2 Rush albums(which don't really get much love here on PA) even though I find them excellent releases but not 5 stars by any stretch. The majority of people here on PA like Rush's music moreShockedShocked. You guys might say oh it's because they're more accessible(I don't think that that matters because Prog Rock is still pretty darn complex and the average person doesn't understand it) but the people's overall opinion matters most and they have rated Rush music a little bit betterShocked. Rush's music can stand with any King Crimson record, believe thatShockedShocked

"Hold that red star emblem so proudly high in hand"

Don't say that "ohh" King Crimson is not accessible, that's bullsh*t because in the end it's all Prog.


ITCOTCK and Red album are in the PA top 10, but no Rush album is.  

You can't turn around now and say that's because this site has a huge bunch of KC fanboys (and absolutely nothing to do with how good the albums might be), that's just bullsh*t because in the end it's all Prog.  Wink


Yeah but Red and In The Court don't really deserve to be there in my opinion, you are right in the end it's all prog


Height of contradictions.   You can't cite the popularity of Rush in one instance and then dismiss the ratings of KC albums in the other.  It's one thing to have your opinion on music and another to assault that of others.
