Red is too fusiony... Actually with the exception of Starless, I really dont like any of it.

Most deffinatly IN THE COURT OF THE CRIMSON KING!!

It was first, and it shall be the last,or..what?

I can strangle a canary in a tin can and it would be really original, but that wouldn't save it from sounding like utter sh*t.

Red is great, but In the Court of the Crimson King beats all.

Actually Thrak might be their best album for me today.

But i think the polls on which KC album is better should be put into groups since Discipline and Starless and Bible Black are just too different to be compared.

In the Court of the Crimson King. I hate to say that a certain album defines a band, though. Not one album can define such a diverse band as King Crimson

^ I agree, Red is a tad bit overrated.

I'll vote for:

Larks

ITCHYCOCK.

I think Red is a bit overrated- 4 to 4.5 stars at the most, but not 5.

Out of those choices it would have to be Red.
One likes to believe
In the freedom of music
But glittering prizes
And endless Compromises
Shatter the illusion
Of integrity

In the court of the Crimson King is gorgeous. It's so gorgeous it is one of the rare songs in this world that can make me cry. Or thereabouts. Truth be told I'm only just getting into it... I've been encouraged to check out KC for a while now, namely by Odysseus. Now my boyfriend has finally given me some of their music. I have that particular album and I'm loving it
