Three Japanese bands, in their own ways, do 21st Century Schizoid Man total justice. Here's the string orchestra Seasons, with their impossibly gorgeous arrangement of the King Crimson classic that I can't stop watching. Below, a punk band named Z.O.A. and a rock outfit called Ninjen-Isu both take the original up a few notches. I don't know what it is with the Japanese, but they really, really get this song. Maybe their culture is even more fucked up than ours. A video of the King Crimson version can be found by clicking on the label below.
