Our Take

A sonic rollercoaster of prog-rock goodness, King Crimson's "Starless & Bible Black" gets a stunning Steven Wilson remix that takes this classic album to new heights.

From the hypnotic rhythms of "The Great Deceiver" to the mind-bending time signatures of "Fracture," this album is a masterclass in progressive rock experimentation. Wilson's mix brings out the intricacies of each instrument, allowing the listener to truly appreciate the genius of Robert Fripp's guitar work and the otherworldly vocals of John Wetton.

The title track, "Starless," is an epic journey through a musical landscape that is both haunting and beautiful. Wilson's attention to detail allows every note to shine, creating a listening experience that is both immersive and captivating.

With tracks like "Lament" and "We'll Let You Know," King Crimson showcases their ability to seamlessly blend jazz, classical, and rock influences into a sound that is uniquely their own. Wilson's mix only enhances these elements, highlighting the band's unparalleled musicianship and songwriting abilities.

Overall, this Steven Wilson remix of "Starless & Bible Black" is a must-listen for any fan of progressive rock music. With its impeccable production and timeless compositions, this album proves once again why King Crimson is one of the most important bands in the history of rock music. Sit back, relax, and let the music take you on a journey you won't soon forget.

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.
