LARKS' TONGUES IN ASPIC

This album introduces a new era of King Crimson's music: Some heavy metal and a great experimental rock are found, without a care of made erudi themes. Lots of rock improves and with only a few symphonic elements.

Basically, the music is built on two instrumental lines: The line of chords. With guitars, bass, pedals and a violin. And the percurssion line, with master Brufford on drums. The harmony between them and inside them is really complex, a great instrumental work!

The song "Larks' Tongues in Aspic" is the most experimental and it is fractioned in two parts. In this song, sometimes, Fripp plays on achords - in all the other songs we found only solo and arpeggio. Actually, this album has lots of exciting guitar passages.

"Book of Saturdays" is beauty and also has electronic distorcions... an interesting idea. "Exiles" and "The Talking Drum' haven't great ideas but they are nice.

"Easy Money" is just the albums best song! Its instrumental part and its outcome are incredible, really ecstasy moments! It is pure Rock'n'Roll with such a great instrumental work!

An excellent addition!
