It's true, they're going to metal'em into submission

In the past  psi ops of the US forces have played sound recordings of various vehicles and weapons within ear shot of enemy troops to psychologically undermine them, believing they're grossly out numbered, they to surrender.

However psi ops have discovered that metal music has the same effect-
They played metal none stop outside General Noriaga's gaf until he gave himself up.

Now the recording of choice in Iraq is AC/DC's Back in Black..  I kid you not.

AC/DC? I reckon Celine Dion would be far more effective in making them surrender.

"Na na na, na na NA NA! Angus!"

Nah.. Macc Lads gotta be,

They don't like it up 'em you know

IRON MAN by Black Sabbath anyone ?

or "A Little Birdhouse In Your Soul" by They Might Be Giants on a loop will sure do the trick.

Ed

Master of Puppets.
or
anything by the brilliant Megadeth

Q.  Where does Saddam keep his CDs?

no, don't do it!

In Iraq!

BOOM-BOOM!

I'm still musing on the surreal nature of trundling along in a half-track in the middle of a sand storm
with a speaker cone strapped to the roof the size of a small house pointed in the general direction of Bagdad.

" ..THAT'S THE WAY I LIKE IT BABY- I DON'T WANT TO LIVE EVER!!  THE ACE OF.. " etc.

Dear Bart, If they played Genesis or anything by their crappy baldie drummer ( doesn't matter what, its all the same) that would soon drive em mental i would me

Think that would put them to sleep more than anything else. For truly psychological damage, you need something like Disciples of Annihilation played at ear-bleeding volume...

np: Ministry - Supernaut

One of Swans' early albums would scare the living bejesus out of them.

From experience, the first Fantomas album at full volume is good for making people leave their homes. :)

Nope nope nope, all far too cool, just give em britney etc & radio 1, make their ears bleed from 10 miles.

'Nope nope nope, all far too cool, just give em britney etc & radio 1, make their ears bleed from 10 miles.'

You could, but I think that would be considered a war crime.

In the original version of the Gulf War* I understand that, with a complete lack of irony, the US troops insisted on playing The Clash "Rock The Casbah".





* the 1991/92 version. It had slightly more justification for the characters actions but the special effects and computer technology weren't as good

++Nah.. Macc Lads gotta be,

They don't like it up 'em you know++

Unfortunately using The lads from Macc is banned under article 273 of the Geneva Convention

Sir Jimmy Shand on a loop, turned up to 11, poor conscripts would go radge (The following in Iraqispeak of course):
 
'It's not the waiting... Its the damn polkas Caruthers,i can't stand it!! I'm going over the top!'

'Get down sir ,they'll see you!'

'AAArgh'

'Looks like he copped it, 'e shouldn't have been wearing that British uniform and 'ed be alright, Fancy a Canadian barn-dance anyone?'

Radio 1, yes possibly, Sara Cox would make them grind all their teeth out. But for a true massacre you need adverts. Give 'em Northsound, when the adverts start, mass suicide I tell you!!

Avril Lavigne. Max volume.

War won. General confusion.

He he, that's it, kill them with teenage angst and gloom :o)

Of course master of puppets is deliciously ironic too.

How about an endless loop of celebrity loser Chris Evans whining?

Evans? I wouldn't wish that twat on anybody.

Evans should be forced to watch his piss awful new prog on C4... forever.

I always get the impression that Evans, in true Larry Sanders style, rushed home to watch himself on telly anyway.  Him, Danny Baker and Gazza all sat on a sofa laughing at the show and moaning about what bastards the media can be.

But I'm probably wrong - he's probably a nice quiet self depricating bloke in private.
