Musicians Fight Guantánamo Playlist

After learning that their music was played at loud decibels to torture Guantánamo Bay detainees during questioning, several artists are banding together to close the American naval base prison. Among the musicians joining the National Security Archive's campaign are Pearl Jam, R.E.M. and Trent Reznor. It has already been revealed through public documents that the torture playlist included Britney Spears, AC/DC, Marilyn Manson, Drowning Pool and the Meow mix cat jingle. A spokeswoman for the Joint task force Guantánamo maintains that loud music has not been used on detainees since 2003. [Yahoo!]
