KING CRIMSON
BIOGRAFIA
O King Crimson é um grupo inglês formado pelo guitarrista Robert Fripp e pelo baterista Michael Giles em 1969. O estilo musical da banda costuma ser categorizado como rock progressivo, mas a sua sonoridade carrega vários estilos, como jazz, música erudita, new wave, heavy metal e folk.
O nome King Crimson foi sugerido por Peter Sinfield, sendo uma alusão a Belzebu, princípe dos demónios. De acordo com Fripp, Belzebu seria uma forma ocidentalizada da frase árabe “B’il Sabab.”, significando “o homem com um objetivo”, apesar de muitos sugerirem que a palavra vêm do hebraíco Ba’al-z’bub, “senhor das moscas”.
Uma parte considerável da história dos Crimson consiste nas várias mudanças que foram ocorrendo na banda ao longo dos anos, sendo Robert Fripp o único elemento consistente do grupo, embora ele diga que não se considera o líder, e que para ele os King Crimson são “uma forma de fazer coisas”, e a consistência musical que tem persistido ao longo da história da banda, apesar da rotação dos seus membros, demonstra bem este ponto de vista.
