Post Description

In November 1997 King Crimson began a series of projects (or ProjeKcts) by fractals of the six members King Crimson existed of at that time. In October 1998 the third fractal was born, which was ProjeKct Four. It was assembled by Fripp, Levin, Gunn and Mastelotto. The first release from this projeKct was "West Coast Live" which was a part of the box set "The ProjeKcts".
This release is subtitled "The roar of P4" and that"s just what it is. It was recorded on November 1, 1998 at the 7th Note in San Fransisco. The album opens with "Ghost". It starts with a spacy sound, but this is soon supported by a fast beat and extensive soloing by Fripp. An energetic track. This followed by "Heavy" and "Light ConstruKction". While the first is a good metal like tracks the latter lacks direction. These two tracks were previously performed by ProjeKct Two (they can be found on the album "Live Groove") and were later performed by ProjeKct Three (on the album "Live in Austin"). The track "Deception of the Thrush" was later adopted by KC. This version is well done but doesn"t really spark. "Seizure" can also be found on the improve disc of the triple album "Heavy ConstruKction". Again a very dynamic track, not much melody but mainly rhythm. The album closes with "Ghost 3", which is a slow and heavy track and "ProjeKction" that resembles the space sound of ProjeKct Two.
