  Barnes & Noble.com - Music: THRAK, King Crimson, CD
The only progressive rock band from the '60s to be making new, vital, progressive music in the '90s, King Crimson returned from a ten-year exile in 1995 with THRAK, their first album since 1984's 3 of a Perfect Pair.
The mix is very dense, overpoweringly so at times, but careful listens will reveal that each musician has his own place in each song; the denseness of the sound is by design, not the accidental result of too many cooks in the kitchen.
Sometimes, as in "THRAK," the two trios are set against each other, in some sort of musical faux combat.

 The Lore Merchant: Adventure Journals
Anyway, after Thrak and his mother had a bit of alone time to have their hugs and hellos and console each other, we were invited in a served a bit of lunch while Thrak told his mother a brief summary of what he had done and seen since he left home.
Thrak almost didn't get to finish his story because we weren't there for even an hour before there was a knock on the door.
Thrak even mentioned after we left that hall that he had never seen that other troll in his life, so he was certainly someone who had come into the village seeking some sort of power to have gotten to be the elders right hand troll in less than half a year.

Even today it is a rare event to glimpse a sea thrak in the open water in Darkstone Bay or in the area of Teras Isle, an area once teeming with many varieties of sea thrak including the mighty and now extinct blotchy sea thrak.
During the historical signing of the Elanthian Sea Thrak Protection Treaty, the thrakers filled with krolvin sailors still sail the migritory routes of the blue, scaled and bellowing sea thraks.

 Ground and Sky review - King Crimson - THRAK
The music on THRAK sounds like a mix of the sonic assault of the Red-era band and the guitar interplay and "pop" aspects of the 80s Crimson.
THRAK saw Fripp updating the classic King Crimson sound a bit, and was generally received well.
THRAK has been described well enough above as a mix between the mid-70s and early-80s versions of King Crimson, so I'll go ahead and give my opinion on it.

 King Crimson: Double Trio
THRAK is the most “complete” sounding album since Discipline or Red, take your pick, even if it doesn’t ascend to the groundbreaking heights of either.
Undustrial improvs from various “THRAKs” in the fall of 1995 are welded into a suite of five pieces, bookended by the polymetric main theme at the beginning and end of the disc.
Given that the “THRAK” improvs tended toward a harsh mayhem, this artificial extension of the process is a strenuous listen.

 Tentative Review by The Christopher Currie: King Crimson - THRaKaTTaK
THRAK (summer/autumn 1995), King Crimson nightly embarked on group improvisations in their performance of the middle section of the album's title track.
This was easily the most unpredictable aspect of the show, with all six musicians engaging in a level of sonic experimentation not permitted by the rest of the setlist.
THRAK, wherein the "doubled" nature of most instruments created problems for any audients wishing to identify particular performances with specific individuals (although some pieces were obviously more difficult to determine than others).

As to THRAK itself, this was one powerful recording when it first arrived 8 years ago, and its power has not diminshed over time.
Some of it actually is spot on, and because of that the sheer genius of THRAK is underscored.
True to its definition, the title track is a study in barely controlled chaos, a simple two-note riff pounded into the ground in a maniacal fury of alternating time signatures.

 The Thresher Online: Brother Cane, King Crimson show that hard rock lives (September 8, 1995)
THRAK is a great example of how much a band can experiment while still remaining in the hard rock genre.
The result is a sound that's a little foreign to radio-tuned ears because it is challenging and not always pleasing.
THRAK opens with "VROOOM." A brief string quartet-style ditty explodes into a hard rock instrumental, alternating between pulsing metal and a quieter, tension-building refrain.

 Elephant Talk: THRAK   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-26)
THRAK is an exciting album on many levels.
Leaving aside the Vrooom calling card, then, one has to be wary of one's expectations of Thrak, given the pattern created by past precedent, and also by virtue of the astonishingly good products of the Sylvian/Fripp collaboration.
"Thrak gives the impression that it was hurriedly 'filled up' at the last moment with sundry odds and ends.

 The Daily Vault Album Reviews : Thrak
The best album of each King Crimson phase has been the first one -- In the Court of the Crimson King, Larks' Tongues In Aspic and Discipline -- so it's no surprise that THRAK is an excellent disc introducing the 1995 incarnation of King Crimson, which had now been turned into a double trio.
Still, this album proves that Crimson was still branching out and making vital music after 25 years in the business, far beyond their contemporaries that had gone pop, broken up or become oldies acts.
It may not be a perfect album, but this is not a band that wants to be popular or famous -- it's a band that does music their way on their terms, and on that level THRAK succeeds.

 Channel4.com - SlashMusic - Thrak
And with THRAK, Fripp and King Crimson have created their most compelling synthesis of art and noise, a thrashing suite made up of contrasting, interconnected motifs.
This groaning beast of an album is fabricated from the roiling roar of dissonance and classic power riffs and animated by a complex series of rhythm changes, opulent lyric contrasts, heady contrapuntal interplay and stunning solo flights.
In rethinking his concept of King Crimson, Fripp has reconstituted the band as a double trio, in which Fripp teams with Stick virtuoso Trey Gunn and drummer Pat Mastelotto, while lead vocalist-guitarist Adrian Belew answers back with bassist Tony Levin and electronic percussion innovator Bill Bruford.
