Remove ads
Vrooom (stylised as VROOOM) is an EP by the band King Crimson, classified as a mini-album due to its length. It was released in 1994, as a prequel to the subsequent full length album THRAK (1995). It is the first King Crimson release to feature the “double trio” of guitarists Robert Fripp and Adrian Belew, bassists Trey Gunn and Tony Levin, and drummers Bill Bruford and Pat Mastelotto.[1]
Most of the tracks on VROOOM (with the exception of "Cage" and "When I Say Stop, Continue") were re-recorded for the THRAK album the following year.[1]
A collection of instrumental improvisations and works-in-progress from these sessions was released in 1999 by the King Crimson Collectors Club as The Vrooom Sessions.
