    After reading about one of the ways the good old USA torture people, by blasting repetitive music at a person very loudly for a very long time (barney song, guns and roses etc), i came up up with a short list of bands that would get me spilling the beens in no time. It go's as follow's:

    1 Savage Garden
    2 james Blunt
    3 the thrills

    They were the main three that came to mind,

    So my question to you, is what would music would make spill the beans.

    One man would strike fear into the hearts of all who heard his voice. So much so, that I dare not mention his second name:

    Ronan (Second name withheld)

    I was watching a Channel 4 recreation of Guantanamo Bay torture techniques a while ago and was very amused to find that to torture the prisoners they were playing "Subhuman" by Throbbing Gristle which I had had on repeat earlier in the day and was enjoying immensely.

    Oh and personally I'd give up all my secrets at the thought of someone playing Guns 'n' Roses at me. Axl Rose and James Blunt = two whiny *****.

    I have to say that song 'lemon tree', that was out a good while back used to raise a cold sweat on the back of my kneck. Especially as it was on loop for about 6 months when I was working in Dunnes!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,459 ✭✭✭Heathen

    james blunt

    Anything that fits the 'trendy singer songwriter, grow your hair long and messy and wear brown chords' genre with flat with flat toned vocals. I hate for example Athlete etc.

    COLDPLAY, they'd make me do anything in less than 10 minutes of repeating.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,161 ✭✭✭samo


    That song by the Black Eyed Pea's (My hump or something like that??) is particularly evil and liable to make the strongest of wills break under regular exposure :D

    everything else is bearable

    Wasn't there some old fella in Germany a few years back who got charges dropped against him for smashing up his neighbour downstairs' stereo because the 12-year-old daughter had gone out for the night and left Whitney Houston "I will always love yoooooooou" on repeat, and full volume....? IIRC the judge ruled he was justified on grounds of "intolerable something-or-other"! :D

    most of those tunes are designed to be liked though.... if i were going to torture someone with sheer evil mind shreddign disorientating music i would put on music designed specifically for that...

    probably some 300 bpm gabba-death-speedcore, anything on record labels like Bloody Fist, Evol Intent, Killing Sheep, Ghetto Safari, Black Monolith Breaks, or Outbreak Recordings, Rotterdam terror Squad...

    that would have them spilling the beans in a day or two... for an illiterate peasant who's probably never heard any music other than panpipes and goatskin drums to be subjected to a barrage of chainsaw samples and distorted kickdrums sped up chipmonk hip hop vocals and random screams sampled from the goriest of horror movies.... easy. hell, most people i know who actually like that stuff cant take it for more than 18 hours nonstop before their nerves get shot and they have to find silence... i can only take it in VERY short bursts
