I'm going to venture a guess that the version of #19 you're referencing here is "Rossiya" by Laibach. seems like something you'd do.
i can't believe i'm the only one who got 10 or 14. speaking of assimilate, apparently it's in the set list on the current tour. now repeat after me, DEATH DEATH DEATH DEATH DEATH DEATH DEATH DEATH DEATH!!!!!!!!!!
