4 stars Review #149!

A cruelly underrated KC record. Discipline was too artsy to most for commercial, despite its efforts. However, although it still got overlooked, Three Of A Perfect Pair was an overall better dive for the mainstream, not necessarily a better album. The band didn't aim for less complex than Discipline, instead they aimed for more catchy. And boy, is this catchy! Songs like the title track, 'Sleepless', "Industry', and LTIA III are perfect examples of King Crimson being accessible, but whilst losing none of their original wacky charm. It's really something that should be treasured instead of under shadowed or blatantly hated by KC fans and the general public. It's a gift! Man, I could really go for a Jello mold right now. (Ha!)
