Rage track angers Asda customers
Asda customers have complained to the retailer for playing a Rage Against The Machine track over its speakers.

The 1992 track 'Killing In The Name' - containing the lyrics "F**k you, I won't do what you tell me" - was played in the entertainment section of the supermarket chain's Preston branch.

Shopper Nicolas Gahagan told the Lancashire Evening Post: "All they needed to do was switch the stop button.

"I spoke to another woman who had a child - I would be surprised if other people have not complained. If I was watching television I would not have to put up with that."

An Asda spokesperson acknowledged the complaint, saying that the song should not have been played in the store.
