Swedish Satanic Rock Band Begins US Tour This Month

[wa3zrm]

Yep. When I was in 6th grade, they gathered the entire grade in one classroom (Catholic School) and played Stairway to heaven backwards. All of the kids going "OMG, Did you hear that, its says Love Satan, Live for Satan". Girls running out of the room crying, guys saying they were going home to break all of their rock n Roll records. Me, I was like, Rock On Dudes. This is BS. lol. Just funny how it has all changed now.

Sounds like we are about the same age. I also went to a catholic school... but all they did was send letters home to our parents warning them that the devil was at work. I also remember when I was in 8th grade and they showed us an abortion movie - totally graphic. People were puking and passing out all over the auditorium.

Hell... before Ozzy, Alice Cooper would chop-up baby dolls on stage with fake blood in them. He also did some really strange shit with snakes. I even remember when they said if you played Beatles records backwards you would hear satanic stuff. Personally, I think it's all marketing and overly active imaginations.

If you really want to see the devil at work, just check out PP's posts... there's something truly unholy going on there!

Ozzy was the devil that bit heads off of bats in the mid 80's. Now they are so accepted they sell products nationally. Oh how times have changed.

I totally agree.. Iron Maiden kicked ass. I'm just saying the uproar is similar from the religious nuts ha.

A little off topic here. I find it funny how many national companies are using songs to advertise their products that were "devil music" and "evil" when I was listening to them as a teen. Crazy Train selling a Minivan. Judas Priest selling a mionivan too I believe. My mom would take those cassettes away from me if she caught me with them. lol.

Here's Alice Cooper's take on Black Metal, from the documentary 'Metal: A Headbanger's Journey'. Wilth Alice Cooper being a pretty dedicated Christian, I always expected him to really be mean to them. Not so...

In fact, Iron Maiden continues to kick ass.

Edit: Now that I've watched the video, you guys can leave me at home for the Ghost concert. Let me know when Gorgoroth comes over.

Haha. I have been listening to Ghost a bit because of their music.....it is not horrible....but the subject matter is pure cheese. Cheddar I believe.....maybe Havarti.....definitely not Gouda.......like I give Edam.

No offense to Satan or Satanists......their delivery is cheesy.

I hope Satan likes cheese.

I do.

Satan eats cheese made in Hellam, PA.

I would go see Ghost....just to see it.

Hang out with the fourteen year old fans......

No line at the bar.

Cheese.

What was I saying?

[truthwolf1]

I always thought HIP HOP came directly from SATAN.

Pretty funny, these religious fanatics. I feel bad for them too, in today's digital age, finding records to burn isn't as easy as it used to be.
Seriously though, Ghost seems like pretty weak sauce to be satanic. The satanists nowadays really need to step up their game.

[EricHill78]

Yeah, but Iron Maiden actually made great music, didn't claim to be satanic, & weren't a bunch of poofters. (Not that there's anything wrong with that.) Just sayin!

Just like the 80's with Iron Maiden's 666 for example.

The voice of that man is bursting of satanic power

:^D

Yup. I liked KISS when I was little. That's exactly what it is. Kid stuff :^)

I have a certain appreciation for black metal. It's too loud for me to listen to much, but I appreciate it. The schtick they use I find kind of annoying though. It comes off as being a clown show, and not music centric. I'd prefer they just played the music, and dropped the dumb stuff.

Kiss makeup? I appreciate it someway too. When i was younger i used to listen to black metal 90% of all music. Got over that stage now. Still some good bands out there
