Sum41 probably single-handedly got me into music.

Discipline doesn't sound like any of those albums, that isn't a guarantee that you'll like it but it's worth a shot. There's no mellotron, flutes, saxophones, violins or stuff like that so it's more stripped down in it's arrangements than previous albums. 80s Crimson has strong influence from bands like Talking Heads, XTC and Pere Ubu but combines that with the technical musicianship they are famed for.

Early Sunsets Over Monroeville is a good fucking track.

Well if you really liked Court and want something close to that I recommend In The Wake of Poseidon which is pretty much the same style and Lizard, which has the medieval vibe but it's more out there, if you really liked Red and want something from that same lineup try Larks and Starless, though those are more experimental and inaccessible.
If you want something completely different from those two albums then try Discipline. And if you really like that one also try Beat and Three of a Perfect Pair. My personal preference ranking is like so Court > Red > Discipline > Lizard > THRAK > Larks > Power to Believe > Starless > Three of a Perfect Pair > Wake of Poseidon > Islands > Beat > ConstrucKtion of Light But COL is the only one I'd consider mediocre let alone bad. Overall their discography is probably the most consistant I've heard from a band with that many albums. And just because you hate the two albums I (and many KC fans) rank the highest doesn't mean you won't like the ones ranked below them because most of these albums have their own unique sound and feel. |

I'll stick with the familiar King Crimson first and when I've exhausted that move onto stuff like Discipline. I'll get Poseidon next I guess. I do remember you telling me that I might hate Lizard because it's got a jazz feel to it |
