80s Classic Albums (Featuring: King Crimson)

[Orbert]

This is my favorite King Crimson album primarily because of Bill Bruford hitting a crazy gear.

That too!

[LudwigVan]

Fantastic Album. When I first heard Discipline in college (bought it as soon as it waa released), I thought it sounded like the Talking Heads on steroids. Kinda disappointed that none of their subsequent albums came close to matching this one.

Definitely my favourite KC.  Maybe a three way tie with Red and TOAPP.  Fantastic album.

Probably my favorite KC album other than Red.

And to argue from the other direction than Outcrier has in these threads, while this is certainly a fantastic album that came out in the 80s, I don't think of this as an "80s classic" like the other albums discussed in the thread.

But that's cool.

Discipline is often one of the examples I use of albums I thought sucked the first time I heard it, but I grew to love.

Exactly this. These songs mean so much to me now that I'm shocked at how much I disliked this album at first. Especially Thela Hun Ginjeet...it seemed like a cheap Talking Heads ripoff at the time but now I love it.

Great album!
