Title: Not very good....for King Crimson!
Review: This is better than their last CD,but where has the fire gone in the music? The "songs" are much better than the forced sounding dismal ones on the last release,"Construction of Light",but the instruments never "ignite" into the passion that is the trademark of the best of Crimson.Are they trying too hard to fit into their new found "prog-metal" nich?(Much respect was shown towards KC by a Black/Death Metal fan friend of mine in a recent conversation.)Only Fripp knows.But this Tony Levin /Bill Bruford-less Crimso is a flat firecracker so far,as far as I am concerned!(NO BANG,just one long fuse...!)The Pre-CD EP,"Happy With What...",kicked this to PIECES!Ah well....I'll hope for better next time.
