Right, so death metal draws out the Satan in us?

Honestly, I get more violent ideas when I see a Beyonce clip (because her blatant lack of talent enrages me so I'd like to strangle her with pianowire or something) than I do listening to Death Metal.

And their lyrics do not necessarily promote violence (or they don't necessarily talk about violence either). I mean, just look at Amorphis...

They are proud of their northern (and probably Odinist heritage), but are their lyrics about violence? No they aren't.

As for the person whou said Death Metal is only about intensity, he couldn't be more wrong. Again, look at the example of Amorphis. Those men are just extremely talented musicians.

Oh, and btw. Supermetroidfan, i took a look at your last.fm top bands list :-) Man, you've got some darn good taste in music :-)

I'm not saying that all Death Metal is promoting violence, I'm justsaying a lot are. Are all rap promoting sex and drugs? No, but again, a lot are. I haven't heard Amorphis so I wouldn't know; but from what I do know,musicthat areindulging the idea of violence and the such is a no no.

Uh-huh funny. Think about it. Why do so many young people resort to weed? Because they are running away from there problems and it's "cool". Music has promoted this. I'm not saying if you listen to Metal you're going to kill. It's the message they're promoting that gets me. Look around the society today. Do we want more violence?

some one was is the debate club..:P

to answer your question, no we dont. But I think its ridiculous to say think things like " music drafts satanist" and I'm not refering to you

Yeah, funny, jokes on you, there is no debate club at my school!

Anyways, I'm not saying music drafts Satanist. And I already said, Satanist is not Devil worshipping people. It is a testiment to the Satan in us, the natual want for sex and such. If you choose to follow it, I'm fine. Just don't confuse it with Devil worshipping. I on the other hand study all religion and look at the values that attain. But enough about me...

I'm an athiest,music lover.. my life story

How very interesting!

Good point....But its a scape goat...... I dont care what the context of music is, if it sounds good to me, I love it...But what does my voice matter, I'm nothing but a hypocritic athiest....Sense the sarcasmAoki__

If it sounds good you'll listen to it? No matter the lyrics? Think about it a little.

Think about. Why do you like to listen to death, killing, violence, murder and the such? Why would they like that kind of music? Slow conversion I tell you.

Religion is a form of brainwashing? Just like how the government is corrupt? It's the people behind it, not itself. Think about it. Buddhism like all religion for example, tries to exert morals and ethics we should follow. It tries to teach us something.But it's the people that make it corrupted.

I think more people should choose there music like you DejaVu. Nowadays it's all about violence and drugs; not the true art behind what makes music special and important.

That's all I have to say.

[QUOTE="DejaVu72"]I don't even listen to Rock every day...DejaVu72

No don't get me wrong; there's noting wrong w/ rock. Heck, I think rock is awsome; I'm leaning towards more of Death Metal etc.

Art is subjective...

I know, but to me a large majority of Metal (Not ALL) cares more about intensity than quality. Quality should be the first priority in Art in my opinion.

What if intensity is quality to them? Hard to believe (and trust me I can't stand Death Metal and the such) but it'sapealing to some. I think music should hit the emotion cords towards happiness, sadness and the positive things we can relate to.

To me, it is much more difficult to create a piece with high compositional craftsmanship, a piece you KNOW the composer put his heart into, than to turn up the gain on the amp, and play fortississimo with Prestissimo the whole song.

I can listen to a higher quality at andante with mezzo-piano style to it.

Sounds like you know about music dynamics. What kind of music do you listen to?

[QUOTE="whos_next000"][QUOTE="MichaelSoft"]Seriously but this is a really bad prblem, kids can be influenced by this because of their connection when they were little and the music can swing moods. For everyone who listens to those may I ask y? Would be good if someone responded.whos_next000

Look, violence, sex, anger, jealousy; it's allnatual human behavior. Going to floss your teeth isn't up there. (Although hygiene is; flossing doesn't conjure emotions out of us.)

Violence and love are strong emotions. However, which do you think is easier to do? Love music can make you more calm and relax. Ones that promote violence? Doesn't take a genius.
