How about we just get it all out in this thread about the music issue. There are good and bad forms of music. In earlier days there were probably bad sorts of music but today, modern music very much can have expressions of anger and sentimentality. Not always is there music in our day that is harmless to pious ears.

I like music, I accept that some is bad for me, and perhaps gets the bad part of my nature stirred up. I try to avoid it, and sometimes I indulge.

I have to say though, sometimes just the sound of violins can induce passion. It's not necessarily a matter of classical = good / modern = bad

I have noticed since I have "grown up" so to speak. Music doesn't interest me nearly as much as it used to. I rarely listen to my CD collection anymore.

Your right Clare. Heavy Rock/Metal tends to be satanic. I know because I listen to Metal. :headbanger: The music (if you can call it that) isnt demonic in my opinion, but the song becomes demonic when the singer begins roaring out blasphemous,immoral, sinful lyrics. Then the song becomes demonic. If the music (regardless of genre, classical etc.) excites any sinful passions or desires ( I exclude anger) then it is satanic and must be put away.

True enough. There are obviously demonic acts like Deicide, Upside Down Cross, and Marilyn Manson.

I once read an interview with the singer from Deicide. Sick.

Then there are other bands like Slayer and Sepultura. Are they demonic?

Not a problem for me, because I don't like that kind of racket anyway!

Sepultura and Slayer? Totally! All you have to do is look at the cover for their new album!

Hey, JS, how did you break your pop music addiction?

When I was at college (a good 15 years ago) there was this lad who was a Slayer fan, and he kept asking me out!

I declined.

Smart choice.

"Music disposes the soul to virtue or vice."

Those who are addicted to modern so-called music, much of which is merely noise that accompanies lyrics ranging from banal to filthy, will make any excuse to justify their habit.

Here is a link to part one of a video of a talk by Mr. Michael J. Matt on music and culture. It's pretty good. You can find the other five parts of the talk on youtube as well.
