A King Crimson Snob thinks it's great.......2007-02-22

OK, I'm a snob (or an old fart) and I own every Fripp/Wetton/Bruford Crimson disc. I love the mid seventies Crimson, but this disc rocks! It's awesome in every respect. Anyone who enjoys intense, improvisational, electric music will be impressed by this disc. A must have!

BRILLIANT.......2003-06-23

THIS IS MY OF MY FAVORITE SONGS FIVE STAR EVER SUNG.

FUNKTASTIC!.......2001-08-10

Funktafied is the MASSIVE comeback single from the UK's premier soul band FIVE STAR! With mellow, soft and sensual vocals from ultra fit Denise Pearson and her siblings, this song is sexy, laid back and completely "Funktafied" deserves the success it is achieving, and so much more! Go buy it!...

25+ Crimso..........2006-12-21

I have been a huge Crimson fan since the late 70's.
I love most of their releases. Like most of the rest.
Construkction of the Light and the Projekcts were the 1st real dissapointments. But then Heavy ConstruKction put everything right again.
...and then there was this. Sadly, this is where I jump off. Aweful.

Can't believe they opened for Tool FOOL.......2005-08-31

Great live album that features Construction of Light which is an improvement over the studio version. There are also several songs from the great Power to Believe cd. The Deception of Thrush from the Projekts cd is absolutely spine tingly. Pebonr, Crimson should always be the opening act-get real you Tool lover.

Happy KC.......2003-09-11

I beleive this is some of the most surprising music KC has put out, as far as being 90's or 2000 and beyond material. The Projekcts are very interesting. The 90's albums Thrak and Construction of light, are ok; not the best this band has done. Very disciplined music, but different than the 80 s material and obviously the 70's.

What can I say, the songs are very good. Deserving 5 stars each (except for construction of light). They played very well on the Tool tour; this cd is proof of that. Adrian Belew, Fripp, Mastelotto and Trey Gunn keep on surprising w intersting music (as opposed to boring).

I highly recommend this. Buy it : )

The fifth incarnation has moved to Level Five.......2002-07-15

...Is it worth it though? I would say yes. I loved Heavy ConstrucKtion, but the version of ConstrucKtion of Light on Level Five is superior for a few reasons, the most important of which is that Pat Mastelotto's drum kit sounds like more of an acoustic drum kit. Like I said, Heavy ConstrucKtion was great, but at times I tired slightly of what sounded like a purely electronic kit. This is a welcome change, and makes King Crimson sound infinitely heavier (more appropriate for the tour with Tool from which the tracks on this album are taken).

Dangerous Curves and Virtuous Circle (tracks 1 and 3) sound like improv to me, and King Crimson never disappoints with their improv. They seem to be creating a more ambient, melodic mood with these 2 tracks than other live improvs. Level Five (track 2) is the new structured composition, and is the most worthwhile track on the disc. Dark and brooding, heavy and lurching, it shows why King Crimson is Tool's daddy, and why father and son decided to tour together (I heard that Danny Carey even sat in on Red and Frame by Frame some time on tour, it would have been amazing to hear that on this disc). That being said, the track Level Five sounds (to some small extent) like a synthesis of some of the ideas explored in Larks' Tongues pt. IV and FracKtured. Still sounds good and surprisingly fresh though.

A great version of The Deception of the Thrush appears here as well (my favorite is on Disc 3 of Heavy ConstrucKtion though), which benefits endlessly once again from Pat's new drum kit. A nice bonus improv at the end as a pleasant surprise.

Ultimately, I would say that the best reasons to buy this album would be to hear Pat's better sounding kit, and Trey Gunn's Warr Guitar (which is FINALLY balanced nicely in the mix to the point where you don't have to strain a little bit to focus on it). Robert Fripp and Adrian Belew are in top form as well. The band seems to have moved to the Level (Five) of synthesis between songwriting and instrumental chops appropriate for King Crimson's fifth major incarnation.

FANTASTIC LIVE LEVEL FIVE!.......2002-06-01

Great document of live King Crimson performances. Three new and two old compositions from "TCOL" and "ProjeKct's Four" -"The ConstruKtion Of Light" and "Deception Of The Thrush" are in new and interesting interpretation's. But new compositions are absolutely fantastic. this is One of my favorite live KC cd.
All tracks are superb, but especially my favorite
is "Dangerous Curves"."Level Five" is complex and show's us how heavy KC is. Mr.Robert Fripp, my favorite guitar player ever and how old he is and and what a cool kind of music he
plays:)),when other musicians geting older, Mr. Fripp i can say is- forever young.That
is a distinguishing feature of Fripp among others (One of the necessary thing i
think). Fripp is guitar genius and band prooves his status: GREATIST BAND IN THE UNIVERSE. with the geniune musicians
like adrian Belew, Trey Gunn and Pat Mastelotto, this line-up is match to King Crimson's
millenium's music.Hey someone,(lover of music) if you still dont know about this fantastic "Level Five" cd,put aside your other cd's and listen! I guarantee smile on your face and delight.
