Live Performance of 'Lark's Tongue in Aspic Pt. IV' by Tool & King Crimson
In the summer of 2001, King Crimson was riding the wave of their ambitious musical comeback. The live performance captured at Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall on August 8, 2001, showcased the band alongside Tool, unveiling a powerful synergy of sound. Before this unique collaboration, King Crimson had released "The Construcktion of Light," an album that cemented their innovative spirit in the modern progressive rock scene. This 2000 record marked a significant moment as it was their first studio album in over a decade, experimenting with complex rhythms and textures, much like the intense energy displayed in the live recording of "Lark's Tongue in Aspic, Part IV." Fans noted the electrifying blend of both band's styles that night, re-igniting a fervor for progressive rock and solidifying King Crimson's legacy as musical trailblazers, ever-evolving and never quite what you’d expect. What an exhilarating moment for both the artists and the audience!
