The Chinese band, Swarm, popped up on the internet recently expressing their admiration for King Crimson.
When asked about the band's influences, Gao quickly cited '70s British prog rockers King Crimson. "I didn't like them the first time I heard them," he recalls, adding: "They were like nothing else I'd come across before, and seemed weird to me. My friends liked them though, and kept playing their songs. Before long they began to grow on me. What I once thought was weird about them quickly became exciting and even a bit naughty or dangerous sounding. They seduced me like old devils!"
