Rock music gets its notoriety from hard rockers like Eddie han Halen, Slash, Marilyn Manson et al, but those are not just the guys who do rock, there are decent rock artists such as Avril Lavrigne. You need to hear the lady's songs and listen to the lyrics. they have positive depth.
If Rock music as the poster presumes is demonic, then Rap is satanic (which i definitely know is not true).
I got hooked into Rock as a life long Michael Jackson fan, i have since moved on to listen to other main stream rock artists and bands and my life has never remained the same A trial will convince you all.
here is a challenge to the poster and the anti rock guys on the thread. Tell me your favourite foreign artist, and i would tell you at least one rock/pseudo rock song from that artist.
Rock music is like football, it is beautiful but the beauty depends on the skill and approach of the players.
Rock rocks

Re: Rock Music Is Satanic? by spikedcylinder: 4:50pm On Apr 11, 2008
Its obvious the original poster is ignorant. When people like him/her see something that is foreign to them, they immediately call term it demonic. . . .thats why pastors dupe so many people by telling them that they think so and so is demonic. undecided

Re: Rock Music Is Satanic? by SignorZax: 12:17pm On Apr 12, 2008
Does that mean that people like Rod Stewardt, Sting, Bryan Adams, Kelly Clarkson, etc are all agents of the Devil?

Please! RETHINK! next time before you go to press. Ignorance, now I know is really a disease.
Re: Rock Music Is Satanic? by omoolomo2: 5:44pm On Apr 13, 2008
Punk Rock and Metal and which ever type of rock you guys you guys call demonic isn't anything like that. I actually have a friend who used to be in a punk rock band. He was the "yeller" for the band, from what he said, it's all just fun.

It's goes back to the whole concept of not trusting what we don't understand, and that's just part of what makes us human.

For those of you that think rock is satanic, try this experiment. I picked one of those satanic bands, System of a down, that always have lyrics that make sense, and I ordered a few of their songs from the least "satanic" to the most "satanic"

Listen to these songs in succession and try to follow the lyrics:

Lonely day:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYKPyjH2sVQ
Radio/Video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIDzPUt20F4 (made up video)
Question:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yijKdC8kESA
Aerials:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwNXvQ2OK_k
B.Y.OB.:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3Az7JPZ6ZA
Chop Suey:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdRd3k4CIAg
Violent Pornography:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1YQ7_XhbeOA
Sugar:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOA8QT-sk4M

hopefully some of you'll like the songs. I didn't like this type of music before always, but after I heard a lil boy singing along to Radio/Video in a car, so I had to like the song and the group.

By the way, I don't believe in God, so words like satanic and demonic don't have any concrete meaning in my dictionary.
Re: Rock Music Is Satanic? by miguel647: 5:56pm On Apr 13, 2008
hello my name is michael martins and i want to begin a rock band, please whoever is interested in joining a rock band should reply this message. BUT the priorities are:

My brother these people you mentioned are soft rock musicians, the babies of rock. When we talk of satanic rock, you should be mentioning:

- Marylyn manson (his name is derived from a real life serial killer)
- Metallica
- Guns n Roses
- Iron Maiden
- Black Sabath (ozzy Osbourne's band)
- Slayer
- Van Halen
- Motley Crew
- Judas Priest
- Deep Purple
etc etc

Now you know what we are talking about. Just by the names you can tell.
Re: Rock Music Is Satanic? by franksowo: 1:38pm On Apr 14, 2008
how can someone possibly say rock music is demonic?thats totally bizzare, songs should be judged by the message they pass across,there are thousands of beautiful rock songs out there, thats why we have different genres of music they musn't all appeal to everybody,so u take ur piece and leave the rest alone,
Re: Rock Music Is Satanic? by onmyown(m): 3:15pm On Apr 15, 2008
been a musician on the side all my life. this is my take.
*rock music is very expressive, raw and is not avowed to make overs as in some genres
*due to this all forms of emotions are expressed there in. hate, frustration, misery, sexuality, sensuality, confusion, realities of life
*these expressions can be taken to be demonic as their origins are deep from within unfiltered
*those that perpetuate the sounds you hear have lifestyles that you may not be proud to invite to dinner with your granny
*the instruments and sounds can be produced from a diff spirirt with diff results

finally check the greats, they are either sexual pervs, drug addicts name it. i must confess that the sincerity of the lyrics does catch me. unfortunately they offer no solutions.

Not so fast, Albato. You say that "just by the names you can tell." Perhaps a bit more examination is in order, my friend.

While Marilyn Manson took his last name from a serial killer (Charles Manson), he took his first name from a very mainstream actress (Marilyn Monroe).

"Van Halen" is, if memory serves, a rather common surname in the area from which Eddie's and Alex's family comes.

"Motley Crue" (sorry, but my computer doesn't do umlauts) is derived from a rather common phrase (motley crew) suggesting a non-uniform group. Nothing satanic there.

"Deep Purple" is a rather lovely colour!

"Guns 'N' Roses"? Well, consider that just about any country that is free became that way through its military might (guns). And, even "The Bard" wrote of roses!

Indeed, some of the hardest rocking bands had rather innocuous sounding names: MC5, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Frijid Pink, Tankard--the list goes on. Pehaps nomenclature isn't a particularly good determinant after all. wink
Re: Rock Music Is Satanic? by javalove(m): 8:12pm On Apr 15, 2008
ROCK MUSIC IN NOT DEMONIC BUT MAJORITY OF SATANISTS AND MASONS ARE KNOWN TO BE ROCK MUSICIANS. HAS ANYONE LISTENED TO THE SONG OTEL CARLIFONIA, ? EVERYONE IN DAT GROUP IS A SATANIST AND THE CHURCH OF SATAN IS ON A STREET CALLED CARLIFONIA STREET IN CALIFORNIA, IF U LISTEN TO THE SONG THEN U WOULD UNDERSTAND. I USED TO STUDY SATANISM AND MASONRY 3 YRS BACK AND I STILL HAVE SOME OF MY RESEARCHES INTACT,


ROCK IS NOT DEMONIC BUT MOST OF THE ROCK MUSICIANS ARE. THEIR LYRICS ALWAYS PRAISES ANTON SANDOR LAVEY (FOUNDER OF THE SATANIC CHURCH) AND A HOST OF THEM

Re: Rock Music Is Satanic? by justkunmi(m): 2:46pm On Apr 16, 2008
I have said I wasn't going to reply to this topic but I read something that made me change my mind

Albato mentioned some names and said they were devil inclined!!. How can anyone in this day and age say something like that? Really baffling. . .
Slayer, Judas Priest and Deep Purple are all bands that did their music to the level at which their fans labelled them gods. .
They did justice to Rock music and they were loved!!

Cos a genre of music is loud and its performers look weird does not make the music devilish!!!!. . .
The devil can be on any song. He doesnt need guitars and loud drums before he wraps himself around a song.

Most songs of the occult are slow and tends towards the folklore genre. ..Does that make Enya, Dido, Yanni and even Norah Jones devil worshippers

Let us remove sentiments from everything we do and appreciate songs. . .if you do not like Rock music, stay away from it and let the fans enjoy it. . .
Or are you now saying Mercy Me, Jars of Clay and Switchfoot who are hardcore gospel Rock artistes are devilish?

Think again people, think. . .

IGNORANCE, KAI,NA BAD TIN OH! WHY DONT U TRY LISTENING TO D LYRICS FIRST.

I BELEIVE RAP MUSIC HAS MORE NEGATIVE INFLUENCE ON YOUTHS THAN ROCK,JUST LOOK AT THE LIFE`S OF THE ARTIST AND THE WAY THE LIVE,AND YOU WILL SEE THAT RAP ENCOURAGES MORE VICES THAN ROCK,THE ONLY TIN ABOUT ROCK IS THEY SPEAK THE TRUTH AND THE VICE THEY COMMIT IS DOIN DRUGS AND AS WE ALL KNOW ITS A COMMON TIN ABROAD.

we have people singing bout all sorts of crap in all genres of music. so it would be unfair for anyone to say that rock music is demonic.
it all depends on which artist u are listening to and what their philosphies of life are about.

Making generalizations like this one regarding Rock music being Satanic is quite narrow minded and dumb,need i say more.Accept that some Heavy metal bands are indeed weird but an out right generalization is just absolutely retarded.

Gosh no wonder my people perish because of lack of understanding.
