THRAK

I bought this album just because I wasn't able to find anything else from this band(that I didn't already have) and ended up to be my personal favorite of all the Belew-era albums. A mixture between odd,nearly industrial sounds that are a trademark of Crimson's newest sound and melodic but also quite strong musical composition. There is something majestic on Inner Garden's vocal lines for instance, or the near-perfect One Time that got me stuck on this album for a quite long time. My one and only doubt is the lyrics. It has always been hard for me to understand the meaning behind Belew's lyrics, but I always believed that there is something there that I don't really understand. But lyrics like those of the (really great track-though) People seem to disappoint me a bit, especially when thinking of Sinfield's unique works of art and surrealism that dressed Crimson's songs back in the glorious past. Apart from this, I seriously recommend this album to all progressive fans out there.
