Reports came out that the CIA used the music of the Red Hot Chili Peppers for torture in 2012:

According to Al Jazeera ... the report says Abu Zubaydah was shackled by his wrists to the ceiling of a secret prison site and forced to listen to one of their songs on a loop -- among other torture methods. No word on which song.

Drummer Chad Smith is not happy at all about that news, and who can really blame him?
