I’ve never really listened to anything by Adam Ant apart from the big hits. I like Prince Charming but mainly the cover Xiu Xiu did with Larsen.
I was expecting a recommendation, not a cancellation. I guess the mixtape I was going to make of all King Crimson’s best live performances (1969-74) will not be received well, then? 😞

A bit later on but this one is unreal

You should have known better! Ah God, what to say about Adam Ant...

If you want to hear the early punk stuff go with the BBC Sessions, it's probably the easiest to find across the few singles and loads of
demos that exist from back then. They had a good sound and a big following but barely released anything at the time.

If you want the post-punk stuff go with the first album, Dirk Wears White Sox, it's very recognizably a 1979 post-punk album, without sounding specifically like anyone else.

If you want to hear the pop stuff start with Kings of the Wild Frontier, 1980. Of course the thing with Adam is, the "pop" stuff is probably the most out there of all of it: John Barry themes backed by Glitter Band and Burundi drumming, mixed with acres of Mick Ronson inspired feedback that suddenly shifts into spaghetti western solos. Like, it's not the standard recipe for pop success!

Go on then!
 
This is probably the best cheaply available single cd intro, although it's as bewildering as anything else

While I’d definitely go see them if they came here, the modern KC sound less and less like a rock band and more like a guitar tech trade show. Loads of mannered technical proficiency but none of the power or danger of 70s Crimson.

Could listen to Dave all day. Love his voice, he is really serene and talks with great clarity.
Dave has long been better known as a noise artist. He also talks about his reworking of FEAR OF GOD material near the end.

FEAR OF GOD first 7" 1988 (Zurich) the grindcore gold standard record IMO.

AFAIK Adrian who runs the Emocaust channel made this late 80's / mid 90's Spanish noisecore documentary which is also awesome. I got into this scene towards the end of the era covered.
