King Crimson's Epitaph lyrics, from 1969, sing:
Well, knowledge is a deadly friend, when no one sets the rules. The fate of all mankind, I fear, is in the hands of fools.
I knew these wasn't going to well when I used Epitaph to see Trump winning re-election, King Crimson can't skip me past the next four years...
Jojo references aside, I should listen to more of that band; Court of the Crimson King, which I listened to in order to try to better understand Diavolo's character, was pretty damn fire
Oh, King Crimson is the finest wild ride ever. They did things that couldn't be done anywhere else. However, I don't know anything about Jojo. I just started listening to KC in the 90s, when they were producing their last memorable original works. They are truly amazing. My favorite albums are the one you mentioned, Discipline, Lark's tongues in aspic and Thrak, though, Red is highly praised by most people. Also, if you can watch them live, even these days with the band getting old, they are an absolute delight.
Have you tried Necrophagist's Epitaph? Technical death metal is a much more appropriate genre for these trying times.
