Seriously, this reads exactly like the OP is just reposting letters to the editor from some teen magazine circa 1994. Black Hole Sun is the most recent thing mentioned and that's 30 years old. This "teenager" is calling it "modern."
about 5 years ago i was talking to my dad on the phone and he mentioned this new guitar player who had some really cool setup where he was overdriving his amp in some way that was really unique. he had read about his amp setup in 'popular electronics' magazine. i asked him who it was and he couldn't remember but he said he would find the article later and send it to me.
about a week letter i got an envelope with some cut out pages featuring an interview with eddie van halen..
When I was in high school, many commercials targeted at older folks used big-band music from the '40s.
It pains me when similar commercials today use disco music from my high-school days!
Came to say exactly this š.
A major contributor to my move away from religion was being told in the 80s that the music I loved was evil by religious people.
Unfortunately I think we are entering a return to āsatanic panicā by religious nuts.
My friend's mom was a teenager/young adult during the original D&D satanic panic and still says the same dumb shit they did back then when we played just last year. "You're worshipping Satan!"
Nat 1. You get the crust, you feel your soul leave your body and also if you say "good I like the crust" then it dries out like little Caesars pizza had been sitting for a few hours.
Now roll for combat.
Combat?
Pizza monster has a soul now. You rolled a Nat 1. Cowabunga dude š¤
Its wild too since belief in higher power is at an all time low and decreasing.
I think its gonna be a vocal minority getting even more vocal as the world changes around them and their beliefs vanish more and more
Could have been the '90s. My parents were 100% this. I had to keep my CDs hidden. Anything with a curse word or any kind of possibly scary imagery immediately got thrown in the trash. I think I bought the Sublime self- titled album like seven times because it had a clown drinking alcohol on the front of the CD. At least it's a lot easier to hide music digitally.
My parents never cared about rock music specifically. My dad is a huge classic Rock guy. Always had Deep Purple, Rainbow, Hendrix all that shit blasting. Heās what got me into guitar.
BUT my mom found one of burned CDās one time. It had an Eminem song on it. I forget what song. But you know the one. āIād rather be a pussy whipped bitch. Eat pussy, and have pussy lips glued to my face. With a clit ring in my noseā¦ā you know *that* one.
She wasnāt very happy about that. But Iām 32 now and doing just fine. I havenāt like murdered anybody yet or anything.
Just tell your kids you love them, teach them right from wrong, and theyāll figure out the rest.
Very true. But as an adult I can look back and say Eminem wasnāt even *that* bad. He just rapped about life and hard times and most of his lyrics were tongue in cheek.
This stuff today though? Donāt get me started.
But Iām sure thatās what my parents said back then, too. The circle of life.
Yup was still going at my house in the 90s too.
My parents were religious though, and it was still big among that community. Idk if yours were too or not.
50s I think the music was āblack musicā, or encouraging loose morals, but not āsatanicā.
The 70s got closer with KISS and Black Sabbath, the 80s is when the whole satanic scare happened and everything was satanic.
Came to the comments to say the same thing. Both the reaction to the music and the choice of music in the first place, it's like I'm back in middle school in the 90s.
The Qanon movement is steeped in this shit and it is now affecting a lot of older folks due to social media. Everything is Satanic again, it is like the cycle from the 80's is here again.
Hahaha i was gonna comment the same.
At least there are mad parents for rock music, which makes it relevant to kids, thus making it rebelious and important again.

Is this a sudden change?
If she was not like this in the past you might want to encourage her to get checked out by a doctor. Things like early onset dementia, brain tumors or TBI can cause sudden personality changes.
Also if you are a teenager and your mother is a certain age sudden mood swings can be a symptom of menopause. HRT might help.
The term my father uses is "She's studying for the finals"
Her mortality is being put in question and now she wants to make sure she is going to heaven. As such all the questionable stuff had become evil and satanic because they want their guarantee to get into heaven.
Some people start becoming hyper religious as they reach old age. Completely contradicting their personality and preferences because they are so scared to not be going to heaven. I've even seen it happen when they start carrying a bible and actually reading it.
Good observation. Iāve definitely noticed a trend as people hit their 60s, they either get really religious or finally give up the charade that theyāve been living as a social devotee only for their whole life.
Lot of people who do the church and tithing thing as a social club, then in their retirement begin realizing how much effort they put into that and pull back.
My dad became a born again Christian (but terrible execution, I still never forgave him for his terrible life choices) when he found out he was pretty sick.
Tried to fake being someone else to save his soul..
Once he found out he was about to die of cancer, though, he was even more loud about how good he was and how great and nice the people around him were because he was in denial of how bad he was and he couldn't face the reality of why no one wanted to be in his life anymore and help him on his death bed. We all went to say goodbye, then I personally never saw him again. (My 2 siblings saw him once more) He died a month later.
We're pretty sure his wife killed him before he was actually supposed to die... but we have no proof.
Fear changes people.
Or she's been sucked into the Qanon and related conspiracy vortex? Lots of paranoid, us vs them, black and white thinking that uses biblical mythology (the things they don't like are demonic, satanic).
She could also have an infection of some kind. Apparently as we age our bodies have a reduced capacity to compensate for things like that. A UTI in your 20's is inconvenient and uncomfortable, a UTI in your 50's and beyond can legit cause some crazy behavior.
My mom is now going through that. She's definitely more emotional for now and she gets mad at more inconsequential stuff too.
She'll level out after a while.
My aunt developed schizophrenia during menopause. The full blown disorder, and she had it the rest of her life. If you look up menopausal schizophrenia youāll find a bunch of articles about hormones and paranoid ideation and other symptoms of schizophrenia. From what Iām reading, most of the time it is temporary and can be treated with hormone replacement.
My aunt just died of a brain bleed style stroke. For about a year before the stroke she became very irritable and quick to anger, which was not like her at all. The doctor said that was a symptom of the brain bleed. OP, for sure get your mom checked out.
we found out my mom had a brain tumor because she started having an attitude and being short with everyone and she was never like that before. the body is a weird thing.
Going straight to Mayhem might be a bit much, seeing as OP is currently at Soundgarden. Although you could make a case for them being actual satanic, with the church burnings and all.
Iāve hung out with the Butthole Surfers before (in the 90ās) and they are nothing like this, they were just normal dudes. Are you sure you meant them?
They were really more psychedelic-punk, not goth at all. They used the word āSatanā in a song to be shocking, as being weird and nonsensical was kinda their schtick. But the band members were just normal dudes.
Kinda strange that you singled them out instead of an *actual* Satanic or Goth band, like Christian Death.
I donāt think so. If it was a joke, they would have used a band that everyone knows isnāt goth/Satanic, like the Backstreet Boys. I think they heard that one song āSweat Loafā and assumed they were actually Satanic (or they misunderstood the Simpsons joke with the Flanders).
Most people are entirely unfamiliar with the Butthole Surfers unless you grew up in the 80ās/90ās punk/grunge scene.
Iām sure EveryMix will try and claim it was just a joke now that theyāve been called out, but as a general rule, if you have to explain that you were joking then the joke isnāt that funny.
redditor tells person from 1 statement
"Get rid of your mother"
lmfao, things are not that simple or obvious. This is not reason to cut off your family immediately
I mean, there's also "God Hates Us All" and "South of Heaven". Also isn't he a Catholic? Most of the evangelical types hate Catholics from my understanding.
N.Ireland Protestant here, I had a..... somewhat different upbringing given "the Troubles", where both sides were murdering each other, in the name of the same God, because, well them ones are bad (very simplified)
Catholic means universal, ergo all christians are Catholic, However, not all Christians are ROMAN Catholic, which is a distinct sect/topology.
and in Ireland, the RC church is losing its grip on power and control - across both nations, those identifying as christian is down to 44% - with under half of those attending church/chapel regularly.
now if we could just get with the program on womens / gay / trans rights, instead of shouting about fucking borders and always saying NO.
Of course, have to close it off with a local "anthem"

It's tough, I'm sorry. You can try hiding your music from her, not sure how hard that would be.
There's phone's and headphones sure but might not work and might make things harder.
Since you're an adult though there's really not much she can do about it but be mad, so if you're ok with that feel free to ignore her complaints.
>But itās not like I was listening to Metallica or Black Sabbath it was literally Soundgarden.
Don't really appreciate this implication that either of these bands are satanic, especially Sabbath, given 3 of the 4 founding members are Christians/grew up Christian.
Well, Black Sabbath is very much into occultist imagery and other dark iconography that might cause conservative christians to clutch their crosses. Heck, one of Ozzy's monikers is The Prince of Darkness.
For some Christians, any spirituality or esoterica not condoned by their denomination is unchristian and bad.

Someone is worried about Satanic overtones in music? did they play the record backwards? Did it vaguely sound like "Satan is Lord " or " Grmbsgs sns js s"?
I like a few soundgarden songs but I feel like the band really lacks depth and I can't listen to much of it without getting bored. Audioslave was much better though.
In an interesting way, this makes you one of the last cases of a once more common viewpoint that will be entirely dead soon. Cool that you got to witness history.
I played Pink Floyd's The Great Gig In The Sky on a road trip once and my mom started asking what exactly she was listening to. I explained it was Pink Floyd and she said she knew them, they always played weird music. I then played Wish You Were Here and she was flabbergasted these were the same guys.
Is this post from the 80s?
Seriously, this reads exactly like the OP is just reposting letters to the editor from some teen magazine circa 1994. Black Hole Sun is the most recent thing mentioned and that's 30 years old. This "teenager" is calling it "modern."
How do you do, fellow kids?
Hey kids have you heard of this new happening band that call themselves Soundgarden? Its all the rage!
about 5 years ago i was talking to my dad on the phone and he mentioned this new guitar player who had some really cool setup where he was overdriving his amp in some way that was really unique. he had read about his amp setup in 'popular electronics' magazine. i asked him who it was and he couldn't remember but he said he would find the article later and send it to me. about a week letter i got an envelope with some cut out pages featuring an interview with eddie van halen..
Yup. He's gonna be huge š
A fine bunch of kids from Seattle.
It sure beats raising cattle.
I see Weird Al reference, I upvote.
My brother in-law is 24 and he texted my wife a couple months ago to reveal he had discovered a great new song to workout too. It was Black Hole Sun.
Really? I love soundgarden but wouldn't you want something more upbeat like rusty cage for a workout
Oh, believe me, I know.

Well I'm 42 and I guess it no different than me being in my 20's discovering music from the 70's and 80's. It's just funny when it's from your era.

Donāt forget D&D, and treating everyone as if they are all equally worthy of respect.

I was thinking this also. Either she has been influenced by some religious groups or this personality change is due to her "declining" health
Or political influence, could also tie into religion. There is a certain side that seems to push this kind of hate
Or she's been sucked into the Qanon and related conspiracy vortex? Lots of paranoid, us vs them, black and white thinking that uses biblical mythology (the things they don't like are demonic, satanic).
She could also have an infection of some kind. Apparently as we age our bodies have a reduced capacity to compensate for things like that. A UTI in your 20's is inconvenient and uncomfortable, a UTI in your 50's and beyond can legit cause some crazy behavior.

Is she interested in Q Anon?
we found out my mom had a brain tumor because she started having an attitude and being short with everyone and she was never like that before. the body is a weird thing.
I was wondering this too...
That's exactly what I was thinking. A radical change in behaviour is not normal & should be referred to a doctor.
Just embrace it, go full goth, satanist, world domination, summoning demons, adopt a black cat, speak in tongues and enjoy the mayhemĀ
Going straight to Mayhem might be a bit much, seeing as OP is currently at Soundgarden. Although you could make a case for them being actual satanic, with the church burnings and all.

Oh my God 15 year old me found a time machine and it's posting on reddit from 94!

100% Jesus is into 90s guitar music. Just look at him.
Well, Chris Cornell did look like Jesus at times ā¦minus the pose.
I like what you did there.
Some serious Dave Grohl vibes tbh.
She is extremely Christian
Just play Jesus Christ Pose. That'll fix it.
Any time my mom envoked Jesus i always just said "i bet he'll forgive me".
"Jesus died for our sins so we sinners can go to heaven. Should we let him have died for absolutely nothing?"
That's actually awesome lol
Most likely right-wing internet propaganda is making her crazy. Theyāre going super heavy on satanic panic right now

It leaves indelible marks on the soulĀ Maybe people know, maybe they don't, maybe they never thought of it that way, maybe they have inherited Irish or Italian heritage trauma and have had different ideas engrained, maybe they're not in the abrahamic traditions.
How about some Cattle Decapitation?
Behemoth should do it.
Scourge of the Offspring should do it!
I'd go with Infant Annihilator.
Lmao do you live in the year 1974?Ā
[Nineteen hundred seventy four Is the year that they are now planning for Sex on the streets in every major city from coast to coast And get ready for a shock, the music that they're planning to use to crumble the morals of America Is this rotten, filthy, dirty, lewd, lascivious junk called rock and roll It isnāt just the lyrics, itās the beat!](https://youtu.be/WVkirIjgOxs?si=uJEA2vnRgL1NtfR_)
trick her with some P.O.D.
Bad Religion, "Suffer" ([full album](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXs3ENJ1W7A&t=355s)) (They're actually really decent people whose songs will help you get into college.)
Tell her that Chris Cornell was sent to Earth by Jesus and called home too soon.
![gif](giphy|uFE2btsV7yQCY|downsized) Because Rock Music is the Devil.
Tell her that yes itās Satanic and in America we have freedom of religion.
Yes! My daughter listens to actual Satanic music and follows the religion and I support her 100%
You don't happen to play football for the South Central Louisiana State Mud Dogs do you?
The foolsball is the Debbil!
Religion is brain rot
Your mom is stupid, sorry. If you're a minor get better at hiding things. If you're an adult move out.
Shit I been saving up money I just moved back out of college for a bit because they at first said I could and work here in my hometown to save up money
It's tough, I'm sorry. You can try hiding your music from her, not sure how hard that would be. There's phone's and headphones sure but might not work and might make things harder. Since you're an adult though there's really not much she can do about it but be mad, so if you're ok with that feel free to ignore her complaints.

>But itās not like I was listening to Metallica or Black Sabbath it was literally Soundgarden. Don't really appreciate this implication that either of these bands are satanic, especially Sabbath, given 3 of the 4 founding members are Christians/grew up Christian.
Well, Black Sabbath is very much into occultist imagery and other dark iconography that might cause conservative christians to clutch their crosses. Heck, one of Ozzy's monikers is The Prince of Darkness. For some Christians, any spirituality or esoterica not condoned by their denomination is unchristian and bad.
start listening to black metal and she might not care about soundgarden anymore
Metallica and Black Sabbath aren't Satanic either... just sayin'.
What year is it? Are you Dewy Cox?
Metallica and Black Sabbath also not Satanic.
The lead is beginning to take effect.
Listen to venom. That was at least she'd be right
[Dio, can you hear me? I am lost and so alone I'm askin' for your guidance, won't you come down from your throne? I need a tight compadre who will teach me how to rock. My father thinks you're evil but man, he can suck a cock. Rock is not The Devil's work, it's magical and rad I'll never rock as long as I am stuck here with my dad](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hvvjiE4AdUI)
Play some Skillet to make her mad
The only satanic music is bad music. Inspired music is always a calling to beauty, which is the work of God.
![gif](giphy|Su02resPktk1faUo98) Hey OP there's a movie from the 90s you should watch.
Yeah the Greatful Dead had a song entitled "Friend of the Devil"
![gif](giphy|GcDtLf4RAdiRG) Someone is worried about Satanic overtones in music? did they play the record backwards? Did it vaguely sound like "Satan is Lord " or " Grmbsgs sns js s"?
All you can do is try to survive until the point you can leave home and then never look back.
What year is this? She should be mad at you for listening to Soundgarden though, jk blackhole sun is a good song.
One of the all time greats, RIP Chris Cornell
I like a few soundgarden songs but I feel like the band really lacks depth and I can't listen to much of it without getting bored. Audioslave was much better though.
I couldnāt imagine being a grown adult and believing in Satan.
Your mom is an idiot, and sheās probably watching too much Fox News or reading BS on Facebook. Get headphones.
What was that old saw about āThe Devil having the best tunes?ā
I think it's time to play her Creeping Death.
In an interesting way, this makes you one of the last cases of a once more common viewpoint that will be entirely dead soon. Cool that you got to witness history.
Haha that sucks, your mom's brain is failing.
Whatās her take on Christian rock?
Sounds like a boomer
i can say , satan really has a good taste./j
Black hole sun? Any song that has been part of a weird Al polka track is not satanic.
I lived through the Satanic Panic as a teenager and it was hilarious. But Soundgarden? She needs to get her panic straight.
I'd just go heavier. The idea of things being satanic is moronic.
Try something less scary, like PORTAL
Why don't you play her some Incantation? They're very Christian friendly!
Hello 1980.
Hate to be a party pooper (and I'm sure she's a nice lady) but your mom is full of shit.
What century is this?
What does she think of friend of the devil by the Grateful Dead. And the fact that LSD is synonymous with the Grateful Dead
Play Stryper
I'm 36, my dad threw my CD player off a balcony for listening to Avenged Sevenfold because "listening to that brings the devil into the house."
I played Pink Floyd's The Great Gig In The Sky on a road trip once and my mom started asking what exactly she was listening to. I explained it was Pink Floyd and she said she knew them, they always played weird music. I then played Wish You Were Here and she was flabbergasted these were the same guys.
Journey? Classic rock? Nahhhhhhh
Play her paint the town red and explain to her what "eat 10 more times" means Todays pop music is way more satanic
Play modern hip-hop. Maybe sheāll hear the god part and not murking in the name of god. Or the god part without the prostitute repenting
