King Crimson

The standard-bearers of prog rock. Together with Van der Graaf, the most obscure and the most oriented towards transcending the genre when it was unfortunately in decline (after having literally made it legendary) through a mastery that few can match. ItCotCK remains an absolute masterpiece, and they have even repeated themselves time and time again, especially in the trio consisting of Larks', Starless and Bible Black, and the brutal Red. Simply marvelous is the new wave interlude of Discipline, where Master Fripp is more inspired than ever.
