"Frame by Frame" is a song performed by the progressive rock band King Crimson. The song appears on the 1981 album Discipline as the second track. It is 5:09 in length. The time signature in the chorus is 7/4 and the guitar/drum rhythms can also be considered polyrhythmic to each other. At 4:21 Belew and Fripp are playing in 7/8 until one guitar plays in 13/8 starting at 4:31. The guitars line after 91 beats.[1] This song is well-known for the very fast riff (16th notes at 155 BPM) that Robert Fripp plays at the beginning and after each chorus.
