I'm not too fond of Talking Heads, but I still think there 'Fear of Music' surpassed Discipline a million times over. Never understood the praise Discipline gets, but that's just me.
It didn't seem to bring anything new or interesting to the table. The only good takes on Discipline were Matte and Sheltering Sky.
Oh yeah, the topic.. Discipline was an experiment, and best that it was only attempted once.

I always considered Beat and Three of a Perfect Pair to be Discipline 2 and 3. And the sequels are seldom as good as the original, although in this case the sequels are pretty good.

Intriguing possibility. I wonder how they would differ from the albums actually released.

Um, so it was an experiment in not bringing anything new to the table?

It was an experiment for King Crimson because they've never done anything like it before. Each of the Crimson albums had slight similarities, but Discipline was Crimson off their rocker. A completely different entity than what came before.

Not heard of a Discipline 2 and 3 before. Further and better particulars required I think. Yes, love to hear what this band conjures up. Love the others plus the live album(s) and anything '80s Crim really. (And the rest but this is the relevant era).
