It is unfortunate that the music world lost the talented Bill Rieflin. This is a wonderful album for those searching for something different from very talented musicians.

Same analytical reasons the title of the album is very conservative, and incestual psychopath like "This is what happens when you do not deserve it". A theme across ruins that attempt to be cultural? or Shrodinger´s electrons (below them) attempting to be cultural, or, Lacan on the degree of maladaptability of humans etc.

Highly imaginative instrumental & improvisational album featuring King Crimson guitarist Robert Fripp, Chapman stick player/Crimson member Trey Gunn & multi-instrumentalist Bill Rieflin, who prior to this played drums for Ministry and The Blackouts, then later went on to tour and record with R.E.M. and in 2013 joined King Crimson.
From the "All Music Guide" by Jim Brenholts:
The Repercussions of Angelic Behavior is a rock CD with atmospheric timbres. It is by Robert Fripp, Trey Gunn, and Bill Rieflin. The liner notes are sparse. In fact, they're nonexistent, so listeners have to tackle this disc with no "graphic interference." Fans of Fripp looking for a sound similar to his work with King Crimson will not be disappointed. The disc is loaded with hot guitar riffs and freaky dissonance. It is not pleasant and it is not unpleasant -- it is Fripp and it meets expectations. It is a new kind of avant-garde.
From "All About Jazz" by Glen Astarita:
"This 1999 release precedes the excellent new recording from perennial prog-rockers King Crimson, titled The ConstruKction of Light. Yet with The Repercussions of Angelic Behavior, electric guitarist and Crimson founder Robert Fripp, touch bassist Trey Gunn and hard hitting drummer Bill Rieflin mesh gears for some truly energetic interplay! Spearheaded by Fripp’s signature style attack consisting of loops, EFX, and sinuous lead soloing along with a keen (if not legendary) sense of the dynamic, the trio pursues booming, driving rhythms and abstract themes amid fiery improvisation and otherworldly effects. Throughout, touch bassist Trey Gunn displays the synergy and intuitiveness exhibited on recent collaborations with Fripp in King Crimson and elsewhere. - However, there are no track listings or credits while it is stated on the CD that – “random play is required for full effect”! And while Fripp and Gunn are well known for their improvising ways which has been documented on a rash of recent King Crimson offshoot recordings known as “Project X” or “Project I, 2 and so on, this release falls within a similar format. Hence, The Repercussions of Angelic Behavior is an engaging and electrifying presentation."

Another stellar release from this long-lived ensemble. Though the King Crimson influence is obvious & that comparison unavoidable, these guys have made many great recordings that can't be categorized as 'mere copies'. The perfect balance of aggressive riffing and serene soundscapes. Stephen Roberts

If I found a magic lamp, and a genie popped out… one of my wishes would be to have these three master musicians creating in a group together.
Sounds like music that comes from a planet or country that doesn’t exist, at least as far as we know. Alien space grooves, tastefully cooked up in the hot sweltering touch guitar kitchens of Trey and Markus. Is there a better drummer on the planet than Pat Mastelotto? I don’t think so. Highly recommend. Raleigh Kathman
