Matt Pelletier of The Hypno Rings joins the program as the first face-to-face interview of the sorta-post-pandemic age of Bands, Beers & Buzzwords. He joins our host Johnny Pags in the newly designed top-secret Redefining Records research facility to discuss the weirdly accessible and accessibly weird King Crimson album, Discipline. Released in 1981 by E.G. Records and Warner Bros. Records, the fearless dictator Robert Fripp led an all-star cast of prog-rock greats and new wave trailblazers into creating music that masterfully transitioned the band from the 70s to the 80s. It’s got freaky instruments, guitar solos that don’t sound like guitars, lyrics that don’t rhyme, a member who leaves the group to become a monk, and rules that are made to be broken! This one’s a doozy in the best way possible. Grab a drink and play along, sip a beverage (responsibly) whenever Matt says a buzzword!
