http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLSUQYzqXZ0Anyone here listen to black metal? A lot of it seems like it would be right up your alley.

[Cantarella]

As an ex - black Metal fan I say that this "music" genre "Ain’t Got Nothing On Us".

This music is cartoonish and a sad caricature of an ill - perceived Christianity. All forms of darkness worship can’t keep up with the Catholic Church. And yes! we are into the macabre and not a bit scared of it. Christ has conquered Death.  "What a satanic music scene can only snatch at in its limited imagination, the Catholic Church builds churches out of".

" I say to you, if the all-out, Satan-worshipping disciple of Black Metal manages somehow to avoid the terrible mercy of God, he will find himself damned not for his mockeries, his darkness, or his demonic, skeletal art, but for his Pride, just like the white-collared, straightedged, “Christian” next to him".

I went through a phase of listening to ambient dark techno and also death metal, but it didn't last long. I found its rythms and sound effects to be like a sugar rush where you just want the next sound effect, but Now I just listen to Gregorian chant which has no sound effects, but instead has true atmosphere and gives goosebumps, I want to replace all my library with Gregorian chant now. After a while you get tired of sound effects. And another thing, they are always mathematical, the drums or sound effect beat in the back ground is always in intervals of 4, or 8. That fails because it gets old because you predict it.

Gregorian chant is fine, but it kind of falls flat on my ears after I listen to it for to long. IMO there is enough Black Metal/Music out there that it prob won't get old.


I wonder if it's possible to have a discussion on this forum about music without bringing up Gregorian chant. lmao

God allowed us to create these genres so why should I not enjoy them?

Fine, listen thou to black metal, but mark my words... when the apples on the tree grow sour, and the days become short, and the leaves on the tree change colour, then, and only then, after one hath tasted the poison fruit, thou wilt realise the fruitlessness of thy ventures, and thou wilt feel within thyself an unholy void, and a longing for meaning, and thou wilt no longer look to be cool, but instead to be psycho, and thou spurning the world will no longer refer to thyself as a "dude" but to a "man" who takes a stand for tradition, and who is "not cool".  Then people will say to thee when they hear pious words from thy lips, "dude not cool", and you will be uncool among men, but you will be cool with God, and thou shalt become like unto myself, who is a square, and who is cool because he is not cool.

I sometimes listen to all kinds, but it gets old and all I want now is chant. the rest gets old but chant has been round for 1000's of years, and it never gets old. so much for my opinion anyway.

The problem is not the music much, but the lyrics. Everything that comes through your senses matter.

"Anxious mourning
Anxious mourning, unmeasurable rage
Plaintive desperation, filled with (being imprisoned?)
Apathy with no end and sad life
Whole of crying, anxiousness and torments
Aching heart, which lives in obscurity
Tenebrous corpse on the point of leaving
I have, with no worry, continuously
And if I can't cure myself, nor die." - Peste Noire - Dueil Angoisseus

How horrible.

In a nutshell, the problem with enjoying these genres is that this type of music  not only tends to be at least somewhat addictive, it is designed to steer you away from your interior life while in the process it leads you toward sin.

Anything can become addictive though.
Everything in moderation.

Anything can become addictive though.
Everything in moderation.  

Usually true, but when it comes to popular music, listening to it even in moderation is usually enough to completely kill your interior life. This is not by chance, this is by design.

The problem is that pop/rock/metal/etc. music affects some people worse than others - but it does affect everyone. It certainly affects the young folks and teens most of all. More often than not, the music itself is every bit as bad as the lyrics.    

If it was like anything else, you'd think that after hearing the same songs a zillion times that you'd be so sick and tired of them that you'd never want to hear them ever again - but music doesn't really work that way.

Rather, the more you hear a song that you really like, the more you want to hear it - if that song has impure or implied impure lyrics or drug use or anti-parents/anti-authority or etc. lyrics, it gets pounded into your brain and helps to shape the young person's thinking and attitude after hearing the same words matched up with the same beat over and over and over again - usually  for years on end -  yet for some, for the most vulnerable (teens they only need to hear it a few times (aka "in moderation") as they hum, sing or think about that song a millions times more often than they actually hear it.

Either way, it is something that is far better for the interior life, the life of your immortal soul, to be avoided completely.
