IN THE WAKE OF POSEIDON

Too inspired by the first album (In The Court Of The Crimson King) to be totally good, even it has some good moments. I really love The Devil's Triangle, 11 minutes-and-so of pure terrific, frightening music. But Pictures Of A City seems to be the new 21t Century Schizoid Man, Cadence And Cascade, the new I Talk to the wind, In the wake of Poseidon the new Epitaph...And the three parts of Peace (the first one is almost unlistenable because it's so calm and silentful) are nice but fillers. Cat food is a mess. If King Crimson didn't released In The Court Of The crimson King, if this album was their first one, it would be a masterpiece. But it's just a nice-but-useless follow-up. Too bad. Really too bad. Nice sleeve.
