Product Description

King Crimson's sophomore album, "In The Wake Of Poseidon," is a captivating journey through the progressive rock landscape, released on May 15, 1970, under the Discipline Global Mobile label. This 52-minute masterpiece seamlessly blends art rock, symphonic rock, and psychedelic rock, showcasing the band's innovative spirit and musical prowess.

The album opens with the serene "Peace - A Beginning," setting the stage for the intricate compositions that follow. Tracks like "Pictures Of A City" and "Cadence and Cascade" highlight the band's ability to weave complex arrangements with melodic finesse. The title track, "In The Wake Of Poseidon," is a standout, featuring lush orchestration and dynamic shifts that exemplify King Crimson's signature sound.

"Cat Food" and "The Devil's Triangle" offer a mix of wit and technical brilliance, while "Peace - An End" brings the album to a reflective close. The album also includes a single version of "Cat Food," along with the B-side "Groon" and a guide vocal version of "Cadence And Cascade," providing a deeper look into the creative process behind the music.

With its rich instrumentation and thought-provoking lyrics, "In The Wake Of Poseidon" is a testament to King Crimson's enduring influence on the progressive rock genre.

  • King Crimson Reissue Triumphs

    5 out of 5 stars
    rindxvlqi21 December 2025United States🇺🇸

    Amongst all the albums in this collection, this one, along with the others, stands out as the finest King Crimson reissue yet, both in audio quality and presentation. The main sound difference is the boosted highs, but it's handled tastefully (not like that German Stateside pressing) and enhances the overall enjoyment. Thus, we have the most authentic-to-the-original reissue at a mere fraction of the original cost. Kudos to DGM - two thumbs way up!

    5 out of 5 stars
    Qivizuub6 November 2025United States🇺🇸

    Truly a fantastic pressing at a great price. I owned an original UK copy, but it was in such poor condition, so it's tough to compare, but to my ears, this one sounds really good.

  • Dolby Atmos Audio Excellence

    The Dolby ATMOS sound is absolutely amazing. Maybe even the greatest audio mix I've experienced in this format. Every channel is utilized to produce some genuinely breathtaking effects.
