Thrakattak (written with consonants capitalized as THRaKaTTaK on the album cover) is a live album by the English progressive rock band King Crimson released on 21 May 1996 and recorded during their 1995 THRAK tour of the United States and Japan.
Each night the band would perform a collective improvisation in the middle of the instrumental piece "THRAK". This album presents an hour-long version of the piece, created by editing many of these improvisations together, bookended by the "THRAK" theme.
