King Crimson

In July 2017, when King Crimson performed "Devil Dogs of Tessellation Row" at the Teatro Metropólitan in Mexico City, they were riding a wave of renewed creativity and experimentation. This period followed their acclaimed album "Radical Action to Unseat the Hold of Monkey Mind," released in 2016. This live recording showcases the band's signature blend of complex rhythms and intricate melodies, a hallmark of their progressive rock style. It's interesting to note that by this time, King Crimson had reformed various times, yet they maintained a unique ability to reinvent themselves while also honoring their legendary past. The performance is notable not just for its technical prowess but also for the deep emotional connection the band fosters with the audience, echoing a commitment to live music's transformative power. Seeing them in a venue like Teatro Metropólitan, steeped in history, only amplifies that experience, don’t you think?
