No music, no images... two things that have defined Human culture for millennia. The Taliban must really love leading a miserable existence.

Just wait for the exceptions for "spiritual leaders" and government officials.

Well, I know less about music, but iconoclasm is a pretty traditional feature of Islam. That's why they have all the crazy geometrical art everywhere.

And the Afghans have had music and art since forever, well after their conversion to Islam. The taliban are freaks.
