Canadian rock band Skinny Puppy has asked the American government to pay them for using their songs to torture inmates at Guantanamo Bay.

Founder Evin Key told the Phoenix New Times that they heard through a "reliable grapevine" that their music was used on at least four occasions, the Mirror reported.

The 52-year-old rocker asserted that the band never supported those types of scenarios because they make unsettling music and can see it being used in a weird way.

But it doesn't sit right with them so they thought that it would be a good idea to make an invoice to the US government for musical services, Key added.
