Our Take

KING CRIMSON's "Cat Food" gets a fresh lick of paint with this 50th Anniversary Edition. Purring into our ears with a timeless blend of prog rock and jazz influences, this album is a feast for the senses. From the meowing synths on the title track to the purring basslines on "Groon," every track on this record is a real treat.

Robert Fripp's guitar work is as sharp as ever, cutting through the mix like a feline through a ball of yarn. And let's not forget about Ian McDonald's saxophone, which adds a touch of class to the proceedings. Adrian Belew's vocals are a real highlight too, injecting a dose of whimsy that keeps the album from taking itself too seriously.

The remastered tracks sound crisp and clear, showcasing the band's technical prowess in all its glory. But it's the bonus tracks that really make this edition worth picking up. "Peoria" and "In the Wake of Poseidon" offer new insights into the band's creative process, shedding light on how these musical maestros crafted their sonic masterpieces.

Whether you're a die-hard KING CRIMSON fan or a newcomer to their music, this 50th Anniversary Edition of "Cat Food" is a must-listen. So grab your headphones, pour yourself a glass of milk, and let these purring tunes wash over you like a warm, fuzzy blanket. Meow-sic to our ears.

About the artist

King Crimson

King Crimson, the enigmatic British progressive rock band, is a veritable chameleon in the music industry. With a career spanning over five decades, the group has continuously pushed the boundaries of rock music, blending elements of jazz, classical, and avant-garde to create a sound that is uniquely their own. Led by the visionary Robert Fripp, King Crimson has seen a revolving door of talent over the years, with each iteration bringing its own distinct flavour to the band's sound. From the haunting melodies of "In the Court of the Crimson King" to the experimental sonics of "Larks' Tongues in Aspic," their discography is a testament to their commitment to innovation and evolution. But what truly sets King Crimson apart is their live performances. Renowned for their improvisational skills and fearless musical exploration, the band's shows are a sonic spectacle like no other. With intricate arrangements, complex time signatures, and mind-bending solos, King Crimson never fails to captivate audiences and leave them in a state of awe. Despite their cult following and critical acclaim, King Crimson remains a somewhat elusive figure in the music industry. With a mystique that is as captivating as their music, the band continues to defy categorisation and challenge the status quo. Love them or hate them, one thing is for certain – King Crimson will always be a force to be reckoned with in the world of progressive rock.
