The Crimson ProjeKCt, the King Crimson offshoot formed by three members of the legendary prog rock pioneers, have announced that they will be releasing a new live album in the new year.
Featuring the talents of King Crimson guitarist/vocalist Adrian Belew, bassist Tony Levin and drummer Pat Mastelotto (with the able talents of Markus Reuter, Julie Slick and Tobias Ralph completing the band’s lineup), The Crimson ProjeKCt came together to focus on performing King Crimson’s 1980s to mid-90s material, drawing from classic albums like 1981′s ‘Discipline’, ’84′s ‘Three Of A Perfect Pair’ and ’95′s ‘THRAK’.
The band themselves had this to say about the release:
‘The Crimson ProjeKCt is happy to announce the release of their first official CD “Live in Tokyo” via Inside Out. Performances of classic KC pieces were recorded at Club Citta’ in Tokyo, Japan in March 2012 and represent the sonic power of this unique band. They were meticulously mixed and mastered in pristine sound quality by TCP guitarist Markus Reuter and his award winning ‘Unsung Productions’ team.’
The track listing for the record has also been revealed, and it’s enough to make any fan of latter-day King Crimson giddy with excitement. Here it is in full:
