Cover of King Crimson's "Twenty-first century Schizoid Man"

Japanese trio rockers Ningen Isu do a remarkable cover of a classic King Crimson song. The middle instrumental part is amazing.

Death seed, blind mans greed;
Poets starving, children bleed;
Nothing hes got he really needs-
Twenty first century schizoid man!......BAHNNN DA DA DA DAN DAN DAN ...BUUUUUNH BUUUUUUUUNH BUUUUUUUUUNH!

Fripp should be proud-

Yeah, I should have included the schizoid lyrics, stark poetry;

Cat's foot iron claw
Neuro-surgeons scream for more
At paranoia's poison door
Twenty-first century schizoid man.

Blood rack barbed wire
Politicians' funeral pyre
Innocents raped with napalm fire
Twenty-first century schizoid man.

Death seed blind man's greed
Poets' starving children bleed
Nothing he's got he really needs
Twenty-first century schizoid man.

I love this band so much -- I mean, the original band, King Crimson, but the Japanese band that covers it is amazing, as well. Prog rock continues to maintain a number one spot for music in my head, and In the Court of the Crimson King is close to ze top of that list. I listen to this song every day.
