Our Take

KING CRIMSON's "Red (40th Anniversary Edition)" is like a fine wine - it gets better with age. This reissue of the prog rock classic is a must-have for any music lover with a taste for the avant-garde.

Robert Fripp's guitar work is as sharp as ever, slicing through the mix like a hot knife through butter. The title track, "Red," is a masterclass in tension and release, building to a fiery climax that will leave you breathless. And who can forget the iconic "Starless," with its haunting melodies and intricate instrumentation?

The remastered audio on this edition is crystal clear, allowing every note and nuance to shine through. It's like hearing the album for the first time all over again, but with the added bonus of four bonus tracks that only enhance the overall listening experience.

Whether you're a longtime fan of KING CRIMSON or a newcomer to their music, "Red (40th Anniversary Edition)" is a must-listen. So grab your headphones, pour yourself a glass of wine, and immerse yourself in the sonic landscapes of this timeless classic. You won't regret it. Cheers to another 40 years of KING CRIMSON's musical genius.

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.
