King Crimson

In July 2017, King Crimson delivered a powerful live performance of "Larks' Tongues In Aspic: Part One" at the Teatro Metropólitan in Mexico City. This show came during a period of vibrant activity for the band, marking their return to the stage after a significant hiatus. Just prior, in 2016, King Crimson had released "Radical Action to Unseat the Hold of Monkey Mind," which showcases their ongoing evolution and willingness to experiment with progressive rock. This live recording captures not just a moment in time but the band's remarkable chemistry—especially with three drummers creating a polyrhythmic prowess that’s become their signature sound. It’s fascinating to think about how these seasoned musicians blend the energy of their early work with contemporary sensibilities, making each performance an unrepeatable experience. Having influenced so many genres—imagine a world without their innovation!—King Crimson’s live shows continue to mesmerize audiences, proving they’re anything but done.
