Japanese extreme progressive metal/rock band. The band romanizes "五人一首" as gonin ish which is technically incorrect. The proper romanization would be gonin isshu (ごにんいっしゅ).Their name translates to "Five people, one verse", a reference to the classical Japanese Waka (和歌, (Japanese) poem) Anthology Hyakunin Isshu (百人一首).
