What Sucks About This Artist? King Crimson

If I have to tell you who King Crimson is, you should really reconsider how you've been spending your life. Anyway, what sucks about em?

everything ive heard from them has been fan-****ing-tastic so im gonna pass

I think that the slow intro to Starless could've been cut without maiming the song.

More of a fault of their marketing/fanbase, but I wish people knew about more than Court of the Crimson King.

That's about it though. I used to think that Fripp was an overrated guitarist before I realized that he's an understated monster.

They don’t exist.

yeah i guess you could say it sucks that their catalogue gets hidden behind one behemoth of an album

like dont get me wrong CotCK is great but it’s also a bangin’ introduction to a world full of awesome weird ass tunes

COTCK is corny as hell

I'll have to think about that one for a while.

Oh right: Matte Kudasai.
It's not bad but a bit boring and lame and disrupts the flow of every 80s concert of theirs.

I'll assume that this is from the perspective of corn being the most epic thing that you've ever tasted.

I'm most familiar with Discipline and that only has one good song on it. Don't know if that applies to their whole catalog, but that's certainly what sucks about that album.
