A full run through the King Crimson discography: Part 15 (THRAK, 1995)
Now I’m in an awkward position. I wonder if fans felt this way around 1995 when THRAK came out, because it absolutely makes the previous year’s EP VROOOM…
A full run through the King Crimson discography: Part 17 (THRaKaTTaK, 1996)
Oh no, it’s THRaKaTTaK. This album seems to be a bit obscure these days — as with a few of Crimson’s more minor releases and certain old live albums,…

A full run through the King Crimson discography: Part 5 (Islands, 1971)
These guys keep you guessing, don’t they? After the Lizard lineup of King Crimson fell apart, the band reformed now with singer/bassist Boz Burrell (later way more famously…
A full run through the King Crimson discography: Part 11 (Discipline, 1981)
After three collapses and three reformations, this fourth collapse of the influential and successful Wetton-Bruford (and Cross and Muir) brand of King Crimson in 1974 was the final…
A full run through the King Crimson discography: Part 12 (Beat, 1982)
For the first time ever, a King Crimson lineup would completely hold together long enough to record more than one album, a true miracle. Beat is also one…
A full run through the King Crimson discography: Part 16 (VROOOM VROOOM, 1995/6, 2001)

A full run through the King Crimson discography: Part 14 (VROOOM EP, 1994)
Note: VROOOM seems difficult to track down either online or in physical form. But given that most of it’s already on the following full-length album, it might be…
A full run through the King Crimson discography: Part 2 (In the Court of the Crimson King, 1969)
Oh yeah, it’s the progressive rock classic, if there’s a single one that deserves that title. Debut albums aren’t usually considered career peaks — typically the artist or…
A full run through the King Crimson discography: Part 18 (The ConstruKction of Light, 2000)
I’ve really slowed down on the full* King Crimson run since I started, haven’t I. It took me less than two months to get all the way through…
A full run through the King Crimson discography: Part 7 (Larks’ Tongues in Aspic, 1973)

A full run through the King Crimson discography: Part 8 (Starless and Bible Black, 1974)
Man but these guys could be inconsistent. After producing the excellent Larks’ Tongues, the band went on tour, losing their percussionist Jamie Muir (who went off to join…
A full run through the King Crimson discography: Part 13 (Three of a Perfect Pair, 1984)
By 1984, the Belew/Bruford/Levin lineup was still together: the longest-lasting version of Crimson to date, though apparently things were getting pretty rocky during the Beat sessions. Good thing…
A full run through the King Crimson discography: Part 3 (In the Wake of Poseidon, 1970)
I did say King Crimson changed their sound a lot throughout the years and decades in that first post in this series, but this album is an exception.…
