About This Blog

This blog is dedicated to exposing new and interesting music to people who otherwise might never ventured outside of the realm of popular music, or their preferred genre. The music I will try to review a mix of all different types of music, with a focus on genres I like (metal and experimental music).

I encourage everyone reading this blog to give each of the albums I review a listen, even if you don't think you'll like it, and try to open your mind to new sounds and consents. It might be very rewarding.

King Crimson - Larks' Tongues in Aspic

        King Crimson is a classic 70s progressive rock band with a unique jazzy sound that makes their music very fun and interesting. If you have heard of King Crimson at all, you probably at least know of their first album, In the Court of the Crimson King , and its popular song, "21st Century Schizoid Man". Although that album is undeniably great, I actually prefer this album, Larks' Tongues in Aspic .          The first song on the album, "Larks' Tongues in Aspic, Part I", begins with a peaceful soundscape made by the sound of wooden wind chimes. Eventually, this transitions into the sound of frantic fiddles. The tension slowly builds as the fiddles get louder and some guitar and improvisation on what sounds like a found object drum kit is added in. Suddenly, a loud, sludgy guitar riff blasts through, completely taking you off guard. Like a lot of king Crimson songs, this one is full of interesting experimental jazz and improvisation.         Ano
