Great KC album! The next logical step for someone who's absorbed ITCOTCK.

I agree with Fischman. A pìty that this album of the day only received one comment. Its influence in the prog metal and grunge scenes is undeniable.

After many inside debate, I state that Starless is the best KC song and one of the best songs ever created. However, IKOCK is still a better album than this one in my opinion.

One of those albums I always feel a certain amount of excitement for when I press play, even today. Red has always been to my ears proto-prog metal and a direct influence on everyone from Dream Theater to Tool to Nine Inch Nails and beyond. One of the flat out most interesting albums I've ever heard.
