It
is the first of two studio albums to feature the "double duo" line-up
of Adrian Belew, Robert Fripp, Trey Gunn and Pat Mastelotto. It is the
group's longest studio album and the only one not to chart in the United
States.
In the late 1990s, drummer Bill Bruford and bassist Tony
Levin left King Crimson, ending the "double trio" era documented on
THRAK. For the first time in the group's history, Robert Fripp was the
only Englishman in the lineup.
The Construkction of Light bears a
sound similar to the "rock gamelan" 1980s incarnation of King Crimson,
with Mastelotto primarily playing electronic drums and Belew, Gunn and
Fripp often playing sophisticated, interlocking parts. However, the pace
of these interlocking parts is often slower than it was in the 1980s,
with Belew and Fripp often trading single notes back and forth in
hocket.
The album also contains two sequels to instrumental pieces by
1970s incarnations of the band. "Larks' Tongues in Aspic – Part IV"
continues the series of pieces started on Larks' Tongues in Aspic and
continued on Three of a Perfect Pair. "FraKctured" began as a fifth
entry in the "Larks" suite, but was renamed after being judged as more
reminiscent of "Fracture" from Starless and Bible Black.
