Washington Post reports that FBI agents witnessed possible mistreatment of the Koran at the military prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, including at least one instance in which an interrogator bragged to an FBI agent that he had forced a prisoner to listen to “Satanic black metal music for hours,” then dressed as a Catholic priest before “baptizing” him, according to bureau documents released Tuesday, Jan. 2.

Some of his work splices this interview. Century Media was gracious enough to hook up an interview with him in lieu of the forthcoming Dark Tranquillity EP.

Ilia Badrov from The Fading wrote many of these questions – The Fading is considered to be the next Israeli band that’s going to break internationally, so consider yourselves warned.

Old news and we didn’t hear anything more about it, but according to their official web site blog, the Portuguese metal band is currently working on arranging dates in Poland, Spain, Portugal, Turkey, Greece and Israel. More details will be announced soon.
