One of the few truly "unique" bands out there. King Crimson has a darker tone than most other progressive rock bands from the 70's/ 80's, and their style is almost unlike any other band before them or since. Featuring some truly mesmerizing and wildly creative guitar riffs (thanks to the amazing lead guitarist Robert Fripp), dark and unusual yet not overly pretentious lyrics, and a whole string of different influences ranging from jazz to classical music, King Crimson is the definition of Progressive Rock. They're still releasing new albums to this day, but the only remaining member from the original lineup is lead guitarist Robert Fripp.

Get the King crimson, it just works mug.The definition "King Crimson" is used in the anime and manga "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure". It refers to a "Stand" by the same name. Although people usually do not get the Stand's ability, it is very easy: King Crimson is able to skip forward into time, and be able to see the outcome of the battle the Stand user is in, to an extent. The user can also use its other semi-stand, known as "Epitaph". While in this zone where they can see the outcome, the user can then go to a different spot and attack the enemy, or stay where they are.
Oh, yeah, and also King Crimson is a band. They also made the song "Epitaph".
