An innovative album that marks a new beginning for King Crimson
This album marks the beginning of Crimson's third period. With new members centered around Robert Fripp (guitar), it marks a departure from their previous album, Earthbound.
The opening track, "Larks' Tongues in Aspic, Part One," is an innovative fusion of various musical elements, including jazz, classical, free improvisation, and heavy metal. Jamie Muir's unique percussion style and David Cross's violin playing also contribute greatly to the album's distinctive sound. This album remains a milestone in progressive rock and is loved by many music fans to this day.
