Varför hörs någon vråla SÅÅÅ HÄÄÄR HAAAR INTEEE MARIIIAAAANNE FREDRIKSSOOON DEEEEEET i det lilla vita huset i Bromma? Hur kommer det sig att Björn Skifs har blivit yngre än Martina Haag?

Do you think it’s natural to listen to percussion instruments with a guy talking about drugs, violence, and depravity? The tribalistic war drums tap into your instincts to condition you into a life of idiocy. It isn’t music.
