Not much. Laibach is a group that purposefully "over-identifies" with the regime in power in order to illustrate and expose the hidden "arbitrary power" (SuperEgo) behind the more "neutral" frame of ideology... in this particular case, it was from the post-Tito regime in Yugoslavia, which was modelled pretty closely on the model of "Stalinism".

DAMN IT! I HATE voices yapping over music. What a disgusting IRRITANT. GHASTLY!

Nothing wrong with the Russian national anthem, but there is EVERYTHING wrong with TALKING while it's being SUNG.

I am a proud FANATIC on the subject of music. It's been THE most important influence in my life. I REVERE it.

When music is playing, SHUT UP and LISTEN!!!

Especially when there's a "contrast" and anamorphoses.
