this is the top review on the home page right now, but i thought i
would post it here because it will soon no longer be visible on the
front page..but ahahahahahahaha, best review ever. ../Progressive_rock_discography_CD.asp?cd_id=1903 - KING CRIMSON "In the Court of the Crimson King" Review ( ../Review.asp?id=58366 - Permanent link ) by Chinwag Shall We Posted 3:36:43 AM EST, 11/28/2005 
This is how DEATH METAL was born. Essential! Just when pop music became pop,
KING CRIMSON showed the world the true, brutal side of music. Many parents were
afraid to bring their kids to rock concerts, as the moshing was the new fashion in
the late 60's, and many who went to concerts never returned home. ROBERT FRUUP
AND FRIENDS showed the stupid, filthy hippies how real MUSIC should be played.
When it was trendy to sing like you are a pedophile, Greg Lake's tortured, distorted
vocals full of teenage angst exploded on the late 60's music scene.The first track, 21st Century Schizoid Man, kicks a lot of ass. Decades after true metalheads will discover this masterpiece and play even faster and heavier. Without this track, no DEATH METAL would exist today, in the same shape we know it. Forget BLACK SABBATH and LED ZEPPELIN, now this is HEAVY! This song is really cool, it has some really funny jazzy moments, I always laugh at them wehn I am stowned or drunk(like right nwo!). The second track shows what every METAL band should sound like: diverse and unpredictival. First they explode DEATH METAL bands, and then they play the FLUTE or maybe MELLOTRON(it's the same thing, right?). OPETH and FANTOMAS would later adapt this innovative iddea by fusing the brutal and the beautiful side of musi together. This isn'y rrally DEATH METAL, but without this song, the HEACY genre wuld be boring and every song wouls doiung the same. The third song makes the listener fall asleep. I think it was FRUUP's intention to fall asleep the listeenr. If it is your bad time, then go to bad and turn it on, but if it isn't, skip the tracxk and listen to Epitaph. Epitaph is very emotional and depressing. Without it, OPETH and AGALLOCH would never exist, if they did, it would be in some boring METAL shape, properly. I try not to listen to this song too much, it makes me cry, so I usually just skip ot track number 5 straight after I Talk To The Wung. The last song is a masterfecei!!!!!! It combines ROCK and maybe METAL with SYMPHONIC elements(like BACH and STUFF). This is cool and innovative! While Beatles(tupid hippys)were wasting heir time doing dtugs and Yes were w**king their instruments, KING CRMSON and ROBERT FRUUP fused HEAVINESS and SUMPHONICNESS. EMPEROR, THERION and ETC. would later adapt this idea. IN OTHER WORDS DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME IF YOU LIKE METAL YOU MUST BUY IT IT CREATED MUSIC GOOD MUSIC IM EAN ------------- I begin to wonder if the points of all the ancient myths are solemnly di-rected straight.. at.. meeeeeeeeee! |

Humm 21'st centure schizoid man is the only track on there that could have been remotely "heavy" either he is obsessed with death metal or is just trying to be funny |

http://www.progarchives.com/Progressive_rock_discography_CD.asp?cd_id=1903 - KING CRIMSON "In the Court of the Crimson King" Review ( http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=58403 - Permanent link ) by AP Russo Posted 5:51:30 AM EST, 11/28/2005  I found the latest review of ITCOCK by "Chinwag shall we" exhilarating... as if the greatness of this record should be measured on the impact it had on "AGALLOCH".... he he, Fripp may be really proud of this one About the "stupid, filthy hippies" (I seem to perceive a slight hint of anthagonism towards left-wing politics here, probably Emperor's fans are not exactly illuminated socialists...) that have been taught by Mr """""Fruup"""""" how to play real music, just grow up man, and listen to some more music of the same period, just like the latest Beatles and the Beach Boys (oh, I forgot, they probably taught nothing to the likes of MESHUGGATH or IMPALED NAZARENE). here, now I'm depressed by having to submit my first review on this piece oh history of 2oth century music just by aswering another one. Long live King Crismon. And, oh, by the way, I thing that Lizard and Red are even better. And someone has replied too

This was the best part IMO: " then they play the FLUTE or maybe MELLOTRON(it's the same thing, right?) " Essential stuff. |

Plastic Man. Looks like maybe you have not seen this thread: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13082 - http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13082 The notion that only threads in the Prog msuic lounge is misguided and wrong. Some of the most popular threads are in other sections. If you use the "Active topics" facility, the section the thread is in becomes irrelevant to the reader. |

"Many parents were afraid to bring their kids to rock concerts, as the moshing was the new fashion in the late 60's, and many who went to concerts never returned home." Blimey - whose concerts were those? And who is this Robert Fruup guy? |

| STUFF was one of the most famous composers of the late 18th Century. Rober Fripp has often cited him as a major influence in the work of King Crimson. |

Thanks. I never saw that button. That's the kind of functionality that I always wished there was on the forum but I never knew it existed.

My favorite part was "I Talk to the Wung" By the way EL, I'm an indirect descendant of the great composer Stuff. It's about time he got the recognition he deserved. He was almost as great as the Chinese composer So On. ------------- I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you? |

I liked the way the review just got progressively worse..., it was
almost unreadable by the end. I can imagine him sitting their,
swigging on his bottle o' Bud and feeling merry, whilst typing this
claptrap. "I Talk to the Wung" that was a classic, I may have to use that sometime... Is Wung a relation of So On and Stuff? -------------
