From an album called «The Cult Of Ray». It’s a fucking bad ass tune. It has that sort of Theme from Knight Rider feel to it. It’s mysterious, dark and repulsive. Perfect for driving.

Hard one again. It must be something creepy again.

Wow, that’s absolutely my favorite thing to do in the world! Playing ping pong! Perfect tune for it would be «Liquird Sword».
