    About this album

    Beat is a taut and inventive King Crimson album that translates the band’s prog ambitions into a leaner, more modern sound. Released in 1982, it was the group’s second studio album after their 1980s reformation and the first to follow Discipline, with Robert Fripp, Adrian Belew, Tony Levin and Bill Bruford pushing intricate musicianship into sharper, more rhythmic territory. Inspired in part by the Beat Generation and American literary culture, the record balances complexity with a newly clipped intensity on songs such as Neal and Jack and Me and Heartbeat. It stands as one of the most distinctive chapters in King Crimson’s long catalogue.

    Genre: Pop & Rock
