I love the run of KC's '80s albums. My favourite of the three is Three of a Perfect Pair. But in this poll Discipline for sure.

Yes, same here, so it's 90125 for me too, and I agree with Silly Puppy that 1980's King Crimson sounds too much like Talking Heads for my tastes. Ouch

KC, by distances too large for humans to fathom.

To me Discipline is decent but way too derivative of the Talking Heads.

90125 is totally original and IMHO excellent.

Yep. In retrospect Discipline is rather derivative of remain in light in particular. Not that it's a total copy or anything and it's still good but I seriously doubt it would sound the way it did if it wasn't for RIL. I might just have to change my avatar after this doing this poll. LOL

I doubt you will be the only person to vote for 90125 over Discipline but you seem to be the first.

Discipline is a master piece and one of the best examples of a prog rock band reinterpreting the genre for a new era.

90125 is one of the better post-classic period Yes albums, but not the best, and inferior to Drama and arguably IMO, also The Ladder and Talk.

Neither band at the time intended to use their old band name. In the case of Yes they started of as Cinema. In the case of King Crimson they started off as Discipline.  Both are different and very much apples and oranges but both are 80's albums and because of the similar history I decided to do a poll on them.
