5 stars The o so hard second album. Especially if your debut was one of the best albums that had ever been made so far (and still is in the eyes of many)! On top of that: the band was falling apart.

Still King Crimson put out one heck of an album. Many people rate this not so highly because it's basically a copy of "In The Court Of The Crimson King", and while this is mostly true, isn't it a real accomplishment to make a great copy of one of the greatest albums ever made?

This album also contains one of my favourite KC songs "The Devil's Triangle", a dark and hypnotic song that I never seem to be getting tired of!

As pointed out before, this album, just like their debut, also has a weaker song. In this case it's "Cat Food", a far too poppy sounding track for this album.

Nevertheless, this is so underrated but I do recommend this to all. One of my KC's faves!
