Music: Spiritual Effects of Rock/Metal Music

[Monica]

Hi there, I absolutely agree that the music of the 60s and 70s was authentic.

OK

To further illustrate my point I'd like to point out that all forms of media are being used for brainwashing.

OK, I'll agree with that...with the clarification that not all content conveyed in said media has been manipulated.

Here is an excellent article written by David Wilcock (under the name art aqua) back around 2005.

I haven't read that one yet...but I have read a lot of DW's opinions. I offer the alternative suggestion that, rather than assuming that all those movies, tv shows etc. have the same agenda, maybe it's simply that these themes are in the mass consciousness, and movie producers are picking up on that.

We've all experienced suddenly thinking of something (a song, a book, an idea, whatever) then suddenly seeing it several times over the next few days. It's just the thoughform floating around in the mass consciousness.

Having said that, I do agree that there's manipulation going on in the pop music industry. Not to be confused with genuine artists! I just read the article about Christina Aguillar and was horrified! Yes, I agree, it's quite clear that the imagery and symbolism used are intentional, and I doubt it's from Christina's creative mind. I found it all very creepy! (But then, I tend to find most pop music creepy anyway, for various reasons.)

These pop stars aren't genuine musicians, or if they are, their creativity has been largely suppressed, in favor of manufactured syrup with little or no musical value, in my opinion.

Genuine artists, on the other hand, write their own music, injecting their own passion into it, and it shows.

I don't pay attention to pop music. There is too much authentic music out there to waste time on manufactured pop.

(This is just my highly biased opinion on music and not intended to offend anyone - music is highly subjective and as a serious music connoisseur I readily admit to being very opinionated about it!)

It would behoove anyone into pop to investigate this info, as I could tell just from that one article you posted, that there does seem to be some blatant manipulation going on, using magickal symbolism etc.
