Summary:
"Thela Hun Ginjeet" (King Crimson, Discipline era) is a high‑energy progressive/new‑wave rock piece built on interlocking, rhythmically precise guitar lines, a funk‑driven low end (Chapman Stick/bass), and intricate Bruford-style drumming. Modal (dorian) harmonic material and tight syncopation create an urgent, nervous urban mood, often undercut by a spoken-word vocal delivery. Expect polymetric accents over a primary 4/4 pulse, short instrumental interludes, and call‑and‑response textures between vocals and guitars.
