Pearl Jam, R.E.M., NIN Seek Guantanamo Torture Playlist They've enlisted the NSA to uncover records detailing how loud music is used as an interrogation tactic. Previously unearthed documents suggest NIN, Drowning Pool (they're flattered), and RHCP were blasted along with the Meow Mix jingle. More here.

Whiney bitches. I feel tortured when I have to listen to anything recent by Pearl Jam, NIN, or R.E.M. They don't seem particularly concerned about my ears/feelings.

If the Gitmo wardens really want to torture their prisoners, they should dig up the Toys R' Us in-store radio tapes I had to listen to when I worked there over the holiday season in '89. Talk about inhumane treatment.

These bitches make me sick...if they are so hardcore "human rights" they should go the route of Jesus, St. Francis of Assisi, Mother Theresa or at least Fugazi. All of these assholes gladly participate in the 'corpoate system' as it makes them a shitload of money, but then pouser up and claim bullshit when regular folk use their likeness for more bullshit. WAWAWAHHH!!!

Typical Liberals...big mouthed narcissists who have a total inability to put their money where their mouth is.

Seriously...fuck off Vedder...fuck off Stipe...fuck off Reznor...you are all full of shit, maybe you should write a song about that.

Wow, the assholes are really coming out. I know that I wouldn't be happy if something I created was being used to beat people into submission. I don't blame them for being mad.

Come on guys, buck up. Quit livin in the past. Gitmo is closed; torture is over; Iraq war is done; we aren't picking any new fights; peace, love, and handshakes are in the air. Right? I fell asleep in January and just woke up so I assume all of this has happened.
