I certainly hope the new SGM, Amaran's Plight, and Explosion in the Sky is on that list

Oh yes, considering how much metal youve reviewed. It's the most emotional metal release of the year. You also need Gazpacho and Symphony X

back on topic, The Great Deceiver shows the band being downright unsettling with their heavy jazz. IMHO the only band of the 70s that was any heavier was the mighty Sabbath.

LTIA Rules!


I love that album.....  does anyone have a problem with Wetton's vocals on that album in particular.  He is not the greatest vocalist ever.. but I didn't think they were bad on it.  I know Raff thinks they are subpar on that one.


I LOVE Wetton's voice!  He's great on Book of Saturday and Exiles, and pretty good on Easy Money.  His best is probably The Night Watch, One More Red Nightmare, or Starless, but he is still excellent throughout LTiA.

Lately I'm getting into Belew's voice. IMO he's always regarded to little attention as a singer, but I think he is outstanding.
The best you can is good enough...

I love Belew as well.  I've seen him in concert with the Adrian Belew Power Trio twice now and he's been great both times.  All three "Side" records were fantastic, and several of his albums with King Crimson are undoubtedly prog classics.

I'll admit that I'm not a particular fan of Belew, but eitherway I feel he has to go. He's been on the KC boat too long; I think it's time for a change of face.

Mike Patton Tongue

I don't know. I don't have anyone particular in mind. I wouldn't mind hearing a relative unknown in the spot. Bobby seems to have a knack for picking a good fit.

The only thing I think Crimson lacks are good lyrics. They never were the best.

Mike Patton, lol. I was actually more concerned about the absence of a second guitarist. The Mellotron doesn't get much attention anymore; they need a second guitarist to keep up the soundscapes. The days of Red are over.

I really liked the two guitar approach, but again I feel it  has begun to stagnate a bit. Bring in a woodwind, brass, or string player instead I say.
