... as a huge prog rock fan I would have to say that Genesis' music and King Crimson's couldn't be farther apart.

And Crimson literally launched the genre with 1969's In the Court of the Crimson King.

And that while I have great respect for Peter Gabriel, Genesis was never in King Crimson's league at all.
