Music as weapons of war and torture ChristopherBlackwell, Fri Jun 8 6:33pmOkay folks, now a chilling thought, what kind of music could the government use to break you down and drive you insane? In my case I was thinking polka music, those mindless teeny bopper love songs... more
Abominable, but greenman, Mon Jun 11 4:32pm...it reminds me of an episode of a very funny British comedy from the '80s called A Very Peculiar Practice. There were serious undertones (pun intended) in the episode "Bad Vibrations," which had to ... more Oh Oh Oh! I Know I Know!!!

Actually, that might be a realistic pattern in the stars ... Clawson, Tue Jun 12 10:01am...but few composers would want to copy the random moise of machinery operating. Sometimes it is done for special effect as a small part of some larger background for a stage performance. To me, music is mostly just noise... macsj, Sat Jun 9 11:48pm...and using noise for torture is nothing new and unique.

I don't smell much of anything any more ChristopherBlackwell, Sun Jun 10 6:12pmmacsj, My sense of smell is all but gone. I don't even smell the incense I use in my ceremonies, frankincense. Now the upside is I miss some bad smells. I am progressively more deaf. So I don't hear... more
It's just one of those things Truthteller, Mon Jun 11 7:31amI do my best work with music playing and have all my life.

Yeah, J-Pop is pretty hard to take. Poppet, Sun Jun 10 7:39pmNot fond of J-Pop , but a lot of folks arfe probably more likely to gouge out their ears over dubstep . And of course there's always extreme noise, like Merzbow . Music as weapon? Oh, I'm just... more
And there are always the classics greenman, Wed Jun 13 5:25pmhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dYtzNl48F60 ;) Anything by Rush. Most definlitely the most overrated band. (nm KR, Fri Jun 8 6:52pm
LOL! greenman, Wed Jun 13 5:27pmMy wife would physically kill you for that commment. But I have to agree that, especially in earlier albums, Geddy Lee was perhaps the worst rock vocalist I've ever heard. Like a fingernail on a... more Too many big words? Glenn, Mon Jun 11 7:26pmI'll stack Rush lyrics against anything you want to put up, intellectual maturity-wise 8^p
