I like the devil voices...Part of the so called gitmo torture was forcing them to listen to speed metal at high volume for many hours.....

They used metal in iraq to intimidate the opposition, and I was told we were played a few times, which is awesome! They use big crazy speakers that somehow direct the soundwave to a point, so it can travel crazy distances, all mounted on a Hummer.

Something I guess they picked up from their experiences in WW2 with the Japanese and later in Korea from the Chinese. I'm told the original use of sound in warfare was used by the Turkish Janissarys who used cymbals to intimidate the enemy.
The Scottish troops used to scare the German troops in both world wars with the War Pipes and drums. The Scottish troops were known by the Germans as The Ladies from Hell due to the kilts and pipes.
