Album of the Day

A Non-Obvious Ride, by Indiscipline (1994): While listening to this one today it occurred to me that I have two albums by bands named after tunes from King Crimson's classic Discipline that sound nothing like 80s Crim. One is Michigan's Discipline, which worked in the symphonic prog vein with a side of VdGG-like lyrical intensity. The other is this French-Canadian band ("Indiscipline" is another track on the Crim album - my favorite one, to boot) which, thanks to crunchy guitar and a heaping helping of violin, does bear some resemblance to the mid 70s version of the band. It's better than I remember it being, too.
