No I have not. I actually don't listen to any progressive music whatsoever and simply come on here to pretend I do.

Is there really a need to ask this? Obviously we have heard the song, otherwise we wouldn't be discussing it as if we have. Fact of the matter is I simply don't hear anything particularly heavy in that song.

The Musical Box and Giant Hogweed aren't that heavy honestly. Schizoid Man and Epitaph are much heavier in my opinion, and are from their '69 debut.

The fact that John Cage experimented and King Crimson also experimented doesn't make them John Cage ripoffs. And the fact that there are very few notes in "Moonchild" and "4'33''" is completely silent doesn't make the former a ripoff of the latter. And even if that one song were a John Cage ripoff, that wouldn't make the whole band John Cage wannabes. You don't like King Crimson. That's fine, and we get it. No reason to make ludicrous statements about them.

All I want is to have a say and a perspective and if you think the statements were ludicrous then my bad it's just how I felt/ feel and I didn't want to hold back. Dayvenkirq especially doesn't want to hear anything that I have to say because he thinks I'm slapping him in the face when I'm not, even though I have crossed the line but it hasn't really happened that much I think you should have a talk with him because he thinks that I'm a troll or that I've been "terrorizing the forum" when in reality I've just been somewhat strong on my opinions and have crossed the line(very little though), he went overboard as to saying that I am a terrorist when in reality I'm a fan just like all of you

Please. Isn't Crimson all about experimentation though, and John Cage experimented too??? are you gonna tell me that Moonchild is original?? Yes! Everybody who experiments rips off John Cage! No no no actually not everyone Are you joking or are you incapable of understanding sarcasm?

I guess incapable of understanding sarcasm???you didn't seem sarcastic it's hard to understand from an online forum

present yourself like a man,please I won't even get hurt by anything you say cuz I know I'm strong but I guess you're not, what I told u was not an insult it's just you're attached to it, is that an insult???no

Dayvenkirq wrote: ^ Yes, I completely forgot that it's all about the math. Brilliant deduction! How the bloody f$%k did I not think of that?!

Its all about math and I guess your attachment to it, whatever

It's not even close. Cage did not have much to say, but the Crims were saying much more than silence.

not really it's only minimalism and you don't even like it that much admit it, I saw review on that album and what I read was that you gave it a total 22/25 which means it's a 4 star album for you not 5 but of course you have to give in and say that it's a 5 star when in reality you don't even think that, sad
