The 27 Club - Did These Rock Musicians Sign Satanic Contracts?
78The 27 Club - Did These Rockers Sign Satanic Contracts?
I got all this information from websites and one book. If this was a term paper, I'd be expelled for plagiarism! But it's not a term paper, so here's the nitty gritty without proper documentation.
I'm sure most rock music fans have heard of this phenomenon. I believe I first heard about it on some television special on VH1. There was a weird occurrence of many famous rock star musicians dying at the age of 27. Some of these include the most famous rockers like Jimi Hendrix, Brian Jones, Janis "Pearl" Joplin, Jim "The Lizard King" Morrison, and Kurt Cobain. However, the origins of the 27 Club actually go back further than you might think. Most of you might say of the 27 Club, "It's only a coincidence. Many people die at the age of 27 all over the world." To that, Cobain and Hendrix biographer Charles R. Cross wrote, "The number of musicians who passed away at 27 is truly remarkable by any standard. Humans die regularly at all ages, [but] there is a statistical spike for musicians who die at 27."
What would you say if I told you that the first member of the 27 Club was initiated in 1938? Here's some comments made regarding this "founder" by writers and famous musicians of our time (and our parents' time).
The Founding Member of The 27 Club
Considered by some to be the "Grandfather of Rock 'n' Roll", his vocal phrasing, original songs, and guitar style have influenced a broad range of musicians, including
Muddy Waters, Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones, Jeff Beck, Jack White and Eric Clapton, who called [him] "the most important blues singer that ever lived".
When Keith Richards was first introduced to [his] music by his band mate
Brian Jones, he replied, "Who is the other guy playing with him?", not realizing it was all only him playing on one guitar.
Clapton described [his] music as "the most powerful cry that I think you can find in the human voice."
Eric Clapton, a frequent proclaimant of the immeasurable significance of [him] to all music stemming from his generation, admits he "did not take to him immediately... He frightened me."
"[Him], to whom we all owed our existence, in some way."—
Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin, on NPR's Fresh Air, recorded in 2004.
[He] is an enigma and an amalgam elevated by white rockers to the pantheon as a mysterious folkloric hero. When alive, [he] was never the King of The Delta—just a talented minstrel—but his influence makes him the grandfather of rock.
An assorted collection of artists who have covered the songs of [him] include (in no particular order)
The Rolling Stones, Canned Heat, Cream, the Blues Brothers Band, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Ry Cooder, Eric Clapton, Cowboy Junkies, John Hammond, Peter Green, Cassandra Wilson, the Radiators, Fleetwood Mac, ZZ Top, Freddie King, Elmore James, Asylum Street Spankers, George Thorogood & the Destroyers, Keb ‘Mo’, Walter Trout Band, Lucinda Williams, Rocky Lawrence, Rory Block, Pyeng Threadgill, John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers, Chris Thomas King, the Jeff Healy Band, Pussy Galore, White Stripes, Foghat, Status Quo, Johnny Shines, Roy Rogers, Led Zeppelin, Muddy Waters, Bonnie Raitt, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Grateful Dead, and Widespread Panic.
Recorded very famous and influential set of 29 songs that influenced many famous musicians after him. yet his music helped father rock & roll.
Rosedale did figure in the lyrics for one of Johnson’s most famous songs, "Traveling Riverside Blues". "Lord, I’m goin’ to Rosedale," he wails, "gon’ take my rider by my side." "Traveling Riverside Blues" had a huge influence on rock-n-roll, and was remade as "Crossroads" by Eric Clapton — which mentions Rosedale with the same phrase [he] uses. It was also covered by Led Zeppelin (whose more well-known "Lemon Song" famously steals a lyric from that same tune of [his]: "You can squeeze my lemon ’til the juice runs down my leg").
Here is the haunting origin of rock music...
The guy all these men are talking about is (the [his] and [he] of the text above) Robert Johnson. Robert Johnson was an African-American bluesman. He was born and raised in Hazlehurst, MS and Memphis, TN. He tried to mimic a popular musician in his town, but failed at it because he simply was not born with a musical skill on the guitar. He really wanted to be famous and good at playing the guitar like his role model Son House, and he says "someone" answered that request. Maybe some of you have seen "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?" with George Clooney where the African-American character Tommy Johnson sells his soul to the devil for musical prowess because he said, "I wasn't using it". He was representing this Robert Johnson. "
Late in life, Son House remembered Johnson as a boy who had followed him around and tried very unsuccessfully to copy him. He then left the Robbinsonville area, but later reappeared after a few months with a miraculous guitar technique. His boast is entirely credible."
"Robert Johnson sounded primal, sang with lived passion about dark meetings at crossroads, love in vain and hellhounds on his trail, and died from poisoning under strange circumstances. The legend went that Johnson, not blessed with guitar talent when he first began playing professionally, yearned for overnight success that would put him in league with the other guitarists on the circuit. One night, he heard a voice that told him to visit the crossroads by Dockery's plantation at midnight. There, he was met by a large black man who apparently was the devil in disguise. The big man took the guitar from Johnson, tuned it, and returned it to him."
"Johnson was giving mastery of the guitar and the devil gave him back his guitar in return for his soul. In exchange Robert Johnson became able to play, sing, and create the greatest blues anyone had ever heard.
"Johnson's improvement on his instrument was swift and amazing (although historically, it took him about a year to become great). He earned the instant recognition of big name guitarists like Son House, who championed his cause. However, Johnson was tormented in his dreams by visions of the devil, and hellhounds on his trail. In his waking hours, Johnson played the role of bluesman hero, chasing women, drinking, behaving arrogantly. In 1938, during a show, he was poisoned (possibly by a jealous husband of a woman he had been putting moves on). The poison had him foaming at the mouth and talking babble, he died within days.
He wrote songs about his experience with the devil with such titles as "Hell Hound On My Trail" (utilizes another common theme: fear of the devil). Six of Johnson's blues songs mention the
devilor some form of the supernatural. In "Me And The Devil" he began, "Early this morning when you knocked upon my door/Early this morning, umb, when you knocked upon my door/And I said, 'Hello, Satan, I believe it's time to go,'" before leading into "You may bury my body down by the highway side/You may bury my body, uumh, down by the highway side/So my old evil spirit can catch a Greyhound bus and ride."
His last words were 'I pray that my redeemer will come and take me from my grave.' He died at age 27.
"The Blues has always been the Devil's music. Music that glorified drinking, womanizing, gambling, dope, violence, and depravity, blues was an easy target for ministers and pastors of the South, who countered with sermons forbidding the congregation to listen to it. Many god-fearing churchgoers heeded this message, establishing Gospel as the safer alternative. Even some bluesmen were convinced; legendary blues picker Gary Davis usually refused to play blues after he was ordained as a reverend in 1937. Ultimately, he relented just before his death and recorded a historic session of blues (secular and gospel) in 1971. He died soon after."
The Most Popular Members
Here are the most popular five members of the 27 Club a.k.a Forever 27.
Jimi Hendrix was pioneering electric guitarist, singer and songwriter for
The Jimi Hendrix Experience and Band of Gypsys. The day of Hendrix’ arrival, his guitantics wowed members of Britain’s musical cognoscenti and he found himself a girlfriend who had previously dated Brian Jones of The Rolling Stones and Keith Moon of the Who. Eric Burdon of the Animals who was present that night recalled later that, "It was haunting how good he was." Jimi Hendrix’ performances became erratic during the last two years of his life. He complained that fans came to hear his early hits and watch him play guitar with his teeth. While vacationing in Morocco, most likely the only vacation of his life, an old fortune-teller with a Tarot deck drew the Death card. The card could also mean rebirth, but Jimi freaked out. A few weeks before his death, he told a Danish journalist, "I’m not sure I will live to be 28 years old.I mean, the moment I feel I have nothing more to give musically, I will not be around on this planet anymore." Jimi Hendrix died from asphyxiation on vomit after overdose of sleeping pills.
Jim Morrison was poet, lead singer, songwriter and video director for
The Doors. Jim was lauded as a mysterious Greek god. The official cause of death was heart failure. Morrison apparently did heroin the night of his death, and there are several conspiracy theories surrounding his death (i.e. did he really OD in the bathroom at the Rock & Roll Circus?). Jim Morrison's official cause of death was listed as "heart failure" but since no autopsy was performed, the actual cause remains mysterious. It is said it was probably heroin overdose.
Brian Jones was
Rolling Stones founder and guitarist/multi-instrumentalist. He died from drowning in a swimming pool. Brian was true rock royalty and in the early days, the only bad Rolling Stone. Jones picked up an acoustic guitar and became infatuated with rural bluesmen such as Blind Lemon Jefferson, Lightning Hopkins, Ledbelly Leadbetter—and the mysterious Robert Johnson.
Kurt Cobain was lead singer, guitarist and songwriter for
Nirvana. April 8, 1994, an electrician found Kurt Cobain with a self-inflicted shotgun wound to the head. According to the coroner’s report, Cobain died April 5, 1994. He was 27 years old. For those interested in learning more about the conspiracy theories surrounding Kurt Cobain’s death, be sure to read Love and Death: The Murder of Kurt Cobain. Kurt's sister said that as a kid, Kurt talked about how he wanted to join the 27 Club.And unfortunatey he did join by suicide.
Janis Joplin was lead vocalist and songwriter for
Big Brother and the Holding Company, The Kozmic Blues Band, and Full Tilt Boogie Band. Janis Joplin was said to have died of a heroin overdose.
There are some disagreements about the criteria of who should be included in the Club. Some say only these five above-mentioned people are in the club. The Club was started when people noticed an unusual number of prominent musicians within a ten-month period. Jimi, Janis, and Jim died within a 10-month span of time. Jim and Brian
died on the same date two years apart. Kurt Cobain was included perhaps due to his fame and his death occurring at the height of his career. Either way, in the height of their rock careers, their young lives were snatched from them in ugly ways. There are more musicians that died at age 27 that I will list at the bottom.Did They Sign Demonic Contracts for Fame, Fortune, and Skill?
This next paragraph is from a woman claims to know part of the answer to the mystery surrounding the 27 Club.
This woman did not want to share her name, but we'll refer to her as Lisa. Lisa used to practice Satanism. She said rock music was a carefully devised and executed plan of the devil. When Lisa became a high priestess (a high rank in satanism), she got to meet the famous rock stars of that time. She said they had all signed a contract to the devil for fame and fortune in rock. Lisa said that these rocks stars are teaching untold millions of youth to worship and serve Satan knowingly and unknowingly. She had attended special ceremonies at various recording studios throughout the U.S. for the specific purpose of placing satanic "blessings" on the rock music recorded. She and others did incantations (satanic "prayers" or curses) which placed demons on EVERY record and tape of rock music sold. At times they also called up special demons who spoke on the recordings - especially in the various backmasked messages. Also, in many, many of the recordings, the satanists themselves were recorded in the background (masked by the over-all noise of the music) doing chants and incantations to summon up more demons every time one of the records or tapes or videos is played by the purchaser. As the music is played, these demons are called into the room to afflict the person playing the music and anyone else who is listening. To all the rock fans, she recommends that you read the book The Devil's Disciples - The Truth About Rock by Jeff Godwin.
If this is true, I always wondered if these people died at that age because their contracts with the devil ended at that age. He gave them what they wanted -- skill, fame, and fortune -- and then time was up. Even the famous ones who didn't die at that age might have signed contracts, according to her. She actually said all famous rock stars at her time (around the 70s and 80s) signed contracts for fame and fortune and perhaps more talent. I wondered if this was true about other rockers. There are many who are said to worship satan liked Kiss, Black Sabbath, Ozzy Osbourne, Venom, King Diamond, etc. etc. However, many of them are past the age of 27. How do they decide which ones get to die at age 27 and which ones get to live on?
3 6/Triple 6/666 Mafia
I even heard that 3 6 Mafia a.k.a. Triple 6 Mafia are involved in satan worship. I'll admit they used to be one of my favorite rap groups if not my most favorite of rap groups because I was raised in Memphis at the time of some of their most popular records. I even met one of them. But I had to stop listening to them because when I did, I'd find myself feeling violent, bad, sexual and such. Look at how famous they have gotten! Imagine them with a Grammy. I listened to one of their songs slowed down, and you could hear them saying strange things in the background and in the chorus. I don't know for sure what it could have been, but I did begin to wonder when I heard this next statement. I heard that the man with the one short arm in the group (Project Pat?) was mad at God because God made him with a abnormal arm so he decided to serve Satan. I don't know how true that is though, but here are some names of the songs: Pimpin' and Robbin', We Shootin' 1st, 44 Killers, Two-Way Freak, D*** Suckin Hoes, Dis B****, That Hoe, Tongue Ring, Weak A B****, Sippin' on Some Sizzurp, and "They Don't F*** Wit' Us. I remember when my sisters and I would play this music in high school and college, and we and other teens and colleagues would almost lose our minds! It felt like something raising up inside of you, and we would act a fool when hearing this music! So many fights would break out to their songs. What was I thinking being a preacher's kid listening to a group called Triple 6 or 3 6 Mafia? 666! There's no other way those numbers would make sense! But I was not cautious, and I fell for it.
Here are some of the other members of the 27 Club. I have never even heard of these people, but some of the group names sound familiar to me. I'm sure you rock fans know these people. Some are not even involved in rock or blues. These people could have just died because it was their time to go, but they were listed on either Wikipedia, the 27 Club official website, and another website talking about a book written on the 27 Club. Here are 32 more members.
- Jesse Belvin. February 6, 1960. Car wreck. R&B singer and songwriter.
"You know what you get when you play Twisted Sister's 'Burn in Hell' backwards? 'Go to church and pray on Sunday.' " Jay Leno, Comedian
I'm sure everyone is not familiar with subliminal messages. This is one way that rockers are said to get satanic messages through to impressionable and unexpecting minds. An example of a way this is done can be found at movie theatres. While you are waiting for the previews to end and the movie to begin, they may flash "Drink Coke" or "Eat Popcorn" for mere milliseconds. It'll be too quickly for you to know consciously, but your subconscious mind will see it, and pretty soon, you'll feel hungry for popcorn and thirsty for Coca-Cola. And it all happens without you even being aware on a conscious level even though your brain clearly got the message.
Well it has been suspected and said that when satanists "bless" rock music, they put subliminal messages in there saying, "Your parents are stupid. Commit suicide. F*** the police. Do drugs. Have sex." This is what some teens who listen to rock music tend to do. People believe that many teens start a descent after listening to rock music because of these messages. I used to like System of a Down, but as weird as they are and as quick-talking as the lead singer is, I don't know what in the world they could have been talking about at a conscious level OR subliminally!
"Some people believe that these subliminal message are not consciously heard by the listener. They further believe that repeat playings can influence their thinking and lead them to uncritically accept Satanic or Occultic beliefs. They view subliminal messages as a form of brainwashing."
"You can reach your own conclusion. Among the most famous example is a passage from "Stairway to Heaven." If you have a player that can handle the .wav format, listen to the passage forwards and backwards. Some claim that, played backwards, they can make out the sentence: "I will sing because I live with Satan"."
In 1990, Judas Priest, a rock band, was on trial for allegedly placing a subliminal instruction "Do it" in one of their songs. They were accused of triggering the suicide of Ray Belknap and the attempted suicide of James Vance.
Some messages are purely intentionally like the following:
"The music is reversible but Time is not. Turn back, turn back, turn back." Electric Light Orchestra, "Face the Music" at the start of the song "Fire on High."
"Congratulations. You have just discovered the secret message. Please send your answer to old pink, care of the funny farm." Pink Floyd, "Empty Spaces," at the end of "Good-bye Blue Sky."
"Messin' with things you don't understand," Iron Maiden, "Piece of Mind" at the start of "Still Life."
From what I get from "The music is reversible but Time is not", they are saying that you can listen to the music either forwards or backwards, and it will get a message sent out both ways. And whatever you do as a result of the music can't be undone. That's just my personal interpretation, but I could be wrong. Why would someone put hidden, secretive music in their music? What's there to hide?
Here's the information, and it's up for you to decide. Many Christian churches preach against rock music for obvious reasons, but what about the undercover and subliminal reasons? How do you tend to feel and think after listening to some rock music? Do you really know everything that they are saying in the background? All I know for sure is, there is no amount of fame or fortune or skill that would make me sell my soul!
Mark 8:36-37 - "
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?"

really good information,it's preventive for future generations
If only more people would actually take these messages seriously! I used to listen to a lot of different bands, some time just because all I wanted was to be rebellious etc. the music actually effected me so much that I knew that if I wanted to get myself into that mood then I would just have to listen to the various bands and that would be all.
In all honesty though, it's not about what backtracked, or even what the lyrics themselves say, my personal opinion is: does the music I listen to bring any glory to my God, Jesus Christ, in any way whatsoever, and what effect does it have on my emotions, my actions, my mannerisms, my attitude?
I agree with you Matthew! When I feel tempted to listen to R&B, rap, and soul classics, I know I won't go to hell for listening to it, but I have to ask myself, "Why listen to this music? I need to lay down every way that so easily besets me from God's way."
backwards masking is total nonsense and is proven to be useless. Christianity is a blatant rip off of Mithraism, Kemeticism, and Zoroastrianism so let's not even go there.
PEACE AND LOVE.
Awesome info. The demons at work in music is tremendous in our time. Thanks for your writings of Truth. Jesus Christ, come, anxiety is strengthening in us for your return, it's getting rough down here. Amen.
The choice is yours, you have heard the word. You know the truth, but you still don't wanna change. Is the devil worth dying for, when someone died for you so you might live forever? You don't have to burn in hell for the devil's sins. Come to Jesus now.

To She Loves G-d, Thanks for even knowing about me.

hahahaha. You guys are foolish. The majority of people successful or not in the modern world have listened to this "Satanic" music, and it seems to me that these people are more free thinking and open minded individuals. Not really violent, quite peaceful, quite moral. They just like good music. Seriously I'd rather be in hell at least that's where all the free thinkers are. Haven't met any Christian with an ounce of critical thinking in his body. God gave us the ability to use our mind, why don't you?
you know what I get from "The music is reversible but time is not"? I get that you shouldn't waste your time on pointless shit like finding god damn messages in songs and, oh I don't know, maybe get a life? you crazy fanatical zealots are really annoying and guess what? One of my favorite songs is Highway to Hell does that mean I'm a satanist NO!
I know that we are in the endtime,only hope that a lot of people come 2 da realization of the devil's plan 4 mankind,his greatest trick is 2 make all of you supposed free thinkers feel he doesn't exist..Millions end up in hell only 2 realise that they were foolish when they coulda repented..
The Devil has always been such a good Master. Blessed be His many names for all eternity.
the music wasn't writen backwords you idiots.Those are just coincidences.
goodfight.org my friends
if u have any doubt bout this kinda stuff u gotta see
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00W93kE-ZE0
people are so concerned with such things, but in reality, the music whether there or not, all of you would act the same, and why i am saying this is, the way that God wants us to live life, died almost within the time of Abel and Cane, because people are still not worshiping God, they are rather worshiping their own self ego's, all the so called civilized countries are responsible for so many death and the cause of third world countries, and your concerned about "do it" in a song
demoralization has long ago occurred, even before music came out and the technology to inject messages into it
pornography rules the internet and tv, our children have no respect for education, religion or God, not to mention how many of those children are born out of wedlock,
the devil is long gone on holidays, and it is you people who are doing his work, and you still wonder whats wrong?
haha, its not about them anyway, its about their beautiful MUSIC they are so lucky to create! Loss of sight going on here.
"Holy Shit !!!" some people actually beleive this...wow talk about ignorance and superstition...
ALL YOU WHO HAVE EARS PLIZ RETURN TO GOD PLIZ AND PLIZ
this is directed specifically to;hahaha,i hate fanatical zealots,Old scratch, poop head, Sarah and old monk.you are the ones that are ignorant and narrow minded not to believe in the world of good vs. evil ,well except for old scratch,who is clearly a devil lover. So serial murderers were free thinkers? How about Hitler?I think you watch too much Dexter.I don't think anyone is lucky to create music.Anyone can create and make music. It is the people that run the music industry that decide who has "beautiful" music. Christianity is a title given to all religions that believe in God and or God and Jesus Christin one way or another.They are all Christians.Catholics,Muslim,Jewish Faith.God,Allah,Jehovah."CHRIST"ians. They're a lot of open-minded, free thinking Christians, do some more research instead of listening to Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh.If you're still rolling your eyes within your cloud of ignorance and defiance check out Youtube search-illuminati.Or better yet google Illuminati.All I'm reading is negative close minded thinking towards something you're trying to understand and comprehend, but you won't. All you're doing is defending them,him or yourselves.Self loathing it almost seems.She Loves God is full of faith and belief. These two words are associated with Christianity because you need them in you to see through it all.She has a brave soul to even talk about these things on a public forum.You sh/ all take your darkness to the back corner b/c that's where you belong.pcenlov my brothers n systers. May God hv pity on you and hope that you see what is real...
All religion is BULLSHIT. But weak people believe in it and sometimes those people come into power over us. Thats all we have to fear from “god“.
I'm a blues musician, and I can say that you do feel a force of good and evil on this world.. The capitalist government is ran by satan, they're little old wrinkled puppets set out on profits and dont care who dies getting it. I used to play guitar for a church, and yes, I even tried to sell my soul, why? because I was a poor depressed stray cat of the streets, who, already a talented blues musician, didn't want fame, or anymore talent, just 100 million dollars lol, that whole night after the "attempt" I had this very strong burning sensation on my chest the whole night, which made me immediately devote my love to God, who is all forgiving (except towards people like Hitler, but what do I know? I'm but a student here on earth). So here I am, a firm believer in the good graces of God, because I have felt the greatness of God and I have felt the evil of the devil, and I can say this, good always outweighs the evil, and in the end, the evildoers will get exactly what they didn't want here on earth. The people who try and control the people are the people we should fear, and God of course, because in the end, that's who we face first. 33rd Parallel Blues.. Ridin' down the line.
This is all false... Trust me.
There is no Satan, there is no god, just a lot of weak minded peole who need someone to tell them how to act and what to believe. Isn't it obvious that we should just be kind to each other!!!
Maybeeeeeee, you should listen to your own soul's desire, your God given soul and conscious. The only truths in life come from within, not from outside. Therefore, perhaps it is God who inspires great musicians and their intentions are in God's name. We should not focus too much on image because God asks us to refrain from judgement... yet you send musicians to court (IN FRONT OF A JUDGE) because of "JUST DO IT." Wake the fuck up people, Nike made that their slogan. We have music, along with education because "evil" controls our minds through our physical world. I believe it is more important to find good inside of messages from people who sacrifice their Earthly bodies in attempts to give you knowledge and wisdom. Knowledge is power and not enough people have it.
It does not matter what you call yourself, satanist, atheist, believer... Sometimes words have no meaning. The divide between good and evil is real no matter who you think you are, you are on one side or the other. If you want to know what side you are on, listen to music, discover the nature of things, become educated, DO NOT take things for granted. I speak for myself as well as many others when I say this; There is a better world that is denied by hatred and disbelief. We just have to remove the blindfold that is over our eyes for our own good. I would like to think that music, film, education, family, and such are good, but I am inclined to think that God must present the gift of "good" through our faith and connectedness to Him.
I don't go to church but I am a strong beleiver in god I also love rock, Jimi Hendrix, Rolling stones, The beatles, and Nirvana are among my many favorite artist's. Does listening to rock make me some crazy devil worshipper, sinner etc. NO!!! I assure you I do not feel any desire to worship the devil, the music doesn't influence me in any way to do such a thing. Im going to say it and some of you may flip out but the song "Sympathy for the devil" yea the theme song, or whatever for the church of Satan is a damn good song. I understand what it is and when I listen to it I don't have any urge to worship satan, I respect the song for what it is and I respect the artist for their musical ability's. So what i'm trying to say is people cant jump to the conclusion that rock is the devil's music, God created us and we created rock and he loves us for who we are so he must respect rock.
No the club 27 was a pact among musicans that they would kill themselves/die so the band would get attetion when k cobain dided everybody knew nirvana and nirvana sales shot thru the roof
How can you not believe it????? Take the time to actually listen to and digest the message of most of these rock songs (not just limited to rock) and you can't help but arrive at the blatant truth...there is something a little off. A lot of their messages have some kind of tie to the devil or hell or drugs. Why is that??? Why are the messages mainly so negative? You don't even have to listen to the songs backwards..pick up a Manson cd, listen to Megadeath, Metallica..what's positive about their songs? NOTHING. Who are they hating on?? Christ and Christians. Why is that? Because they serve a different master. Granted, some of the songs have AMAZING beats and are super catchy, but that doesn't mean that they are not satanic. People just don't want to believe there could be any ties in their beloved classic rock songs with the lord of all evil. C'mon! Who's being ignorant and not using their mind? Just look at the art work, read the lyrics, do some research on the band members and you'll see the sad but true reality behind some mainstream songs. To quote slayer in their epic song "Hell Awaits":
"Jesus knows your soul cannot be saved
CRUCIFY THE SO CALLED LORD
He soon shall fall to me
Your souls are damned
Your God has fell to slave for me eternally Hell awaits."
REALLY????? How can anyone not see the link?? Those of you who still choose to deny that there is one are just trying to trick yourself and dig your heads deeper into the sand.
All of the rock stars in the hippies days were disgusting some of the rocker guys were sexy but theye were disgusting worshiping the devil yuck that realy bad i mean sexy Kurt cobain was a satan worshiper and hes in hell for that now so you might want to believe in jesus before its to late you say Jesus thank you for dying on the cross for my sins i believe you paid it all for me and rose again on the third day I welcome you into my heart in jesus name amen
Hooooboy. People still believe in that backwards-masking nonsense in this day and age? You can't play an MP3 backwards.
More than half the comments here read like they were written by blindfolded, retarded teenagers. "Like omg I h8 yoo saten wurshipors!!1!"
And the other side isn't much better. Just because you aren't Christian (me either!!1! Omg lets act like we're smarter than those silly people who believe in something I disagree with!) Until we can talk to each other about our differing opinions and beliefs, we'll never be more than dogs barking at each other through fence cracks.
Viva Illuminati
Amen!! Share it to your friends and tell them everything.. God loves you all.. Know and get closer to the Lord before it's too late..
Oh, that's original . . . Christians are weak. Christianity is a crutch! Wow! What an original thought. But I guess when you walk alone, critical thinking skills aren't necessary. Looking over the comments I can see who has integrity (Christians)and who are in need of some. (Hope that 'integrity' isn't a dirty word for some of you. But then again, dirty words seem to be your forte.) As Jesus said, "Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man." I'm glad I'm not alone and my saviour walks with me. I have self respect, integrity, values, and morals. Thank you Jesus. Something foreign to the defiled people here. Sad! Btw...Random Guy, don't be a foolish virgin, or a double-minded man. Can't get into the kingdom that way. Do research on rock and roll origins, research how music effects the mind, soul, spirit, and body. Then sincerely repent, if you truly love the Lord. He truly loves you. If you don't, you'll only be hurting yourself brother. I'll pray for you.
No one in their right mind would ever choose Bipolar Disorder or Chemical Dependency. The research shows that it takes an average of 15 years to properly diagnose and adjust the medications for bipolar disorder just right to each ...person's body before sufferers can achieve any kind of consistency. It's usually diagnosed at age 25, so most people have already experienced a lot of suffering until they reach middle adulthood. This also explains why the several artists who were bipolar died at age 27 like Amy (Kurt Cobain, Jim Morrison, etc.) Artists lives esp are very chaotic, even for those who don't take drugs, and esp for those who went from "rags to riches" in a short time, like Amy, so I'm not surprised they didn't get the help they needed in time, like many people do. I took several neuropsychology courses at UC Irvine, where they specialize in this, and the brains of bipolars, those with chemical dependency, and even gay individuals are very different. I'm hoping that the experts continue to educate society so that we can all have more understanding and provide better support. Love saves people, not pointing fingers.
If you are stupid enough to "sign" away your soul to something beyond your understanding - you will surely carry the consequences - even if unintended.
Life's too short to be living it to someone els' standards...
I am a Christian who was a rocker for most of my life. If someone said music was evil I told them how stupid they were. Well turned out I was wrong. To those who think all Christians are closed minded you may be partly right. But from some of the comments on this page I would say its at least a two way street. I don't think there is much if anything to backmasking. I also think satan can do his work without needing that. Stats don't lie, the 27 year old thing holds water. If you don't think so you need to do your home work.
I totaly believe in that crazy shit, only because if it were true i wud join the club. and dont get me wrong because i love nirvana but kurt kobain was not very talented at all and the motherfucker made millions hmmmmmm i wonder how that happened and no u dumbass nirvana was famous way b4 he died so ur wrong
The theory that robert johnson sold his sole to the devil for musical abilities , fame and fortune is ridiculous. If the person who wrote this had done proper research they would have learned that johnson's music was not popular nor did it gain fiscal greatness till the 60's long after hiis death. As far as the religous aspect, i am not touching that dish.
Oh and statictics lie all the time. Any stats teacher will prove that to you on the first day off school.
Good info.
I would go further and say that many pop musicians get their music directly from demons. They channel it. Many musicians actually admit it.

I DONT THINK ITS A SAFE ASSUMPTION THAT ROCK MUSIC IS ALL "THE DEVIL'S MUSIC". I KNOW A LOT OF CHRISTIAN ROCK BANDS... AND A LOT OF RACK STARS THAT DON'T RECORD FOR A CHRISTIAN LABEL, BUT CLAIM TO FAITH IN GOD. THAT DOESN'T MEAN EVERY ROCK STAR IS GOING TO BE CHRISTIAN... BUT THE MUSIC AS A WHOLE, CAN NOT BE CATAGORIZED AS "SATANIC", ONLY CERTAIN PEOPLE WHO CREATE THIS MUSIC. THE 27 CLUB SATANISIM SUSPICION, IS INTRESTING, BECAUSE I CAN FIND NO RECORD OF ANY MEMBER, SO FAR, WHO BELIEVED IN GOD. BUT ROCK MUSIC IS ONLY ENTERTAINMENT, AND PEOPLE INTERPERET IT AS THEY FEEL IT CAN BE INTERPRETED TO THEMSELVES. I LOVE ROCK MUSIC, AND I DONT FEEL ANY NEED TO WORSHIP SATAN WHWN I HEAR IT. I ACTUAL FEEL THAT I WANT TO SPREAD THE MESSAGE OF GOD TROUGH IT MYSELF.... CAN'T BE TO SATANIC IN MY OPINION...
I am 52years old. I believe i jesus and that he is the savior. Backward masking is bull.i love rock music. Some. Bands have sold there soul i believe. So dont listen to the evil ones
infelismente essa e a realidade
e bizzarro sabe que voce ta ouvindo uma musica e tem um demonio te observando
Great article.
I'm currently working on my term paper which somewhat shares the same topic as this article. The only difference is that I'm writing on Satanism and the Popular Music of Today.
I'm no fan of rock music in terms of performing/playing them, but I'm very interested in doing research on topics revolving around this genre.
I personally think that stuff like this (the relationship between music and satanism) doesn't only exist in rock music, but also in other genres (stuff like those by Lady Gaga or Beyonce in today's popular music stream). I guess it's just how we want to view things. There's always going to be the good and the bad point to everything that exist.
As for the 27 Club concept, a similar idea also appears in the classical music realm. There was this thing going on where the great classical composers (such as Mahler) would die after they wrote their 9th symphony. It was regarded as a curse back then, that whoever who writes up to the 9th symphony will die right after. The first person to write up to the 9th symphony and still lived to write after that was Shostakovich.
Watch videos by the musicians that know the truth like Professor Griff from Public Enemy! There are the record companies,heads,owners that are into Satanic rituals etc who have tricked,then forced musicians into joining their order, through blackmail to commit murder.
Hear it from TuPac,Michael Jackson,and Professor Griff.I watched X Factor and saw Simon,Paula and another person walk out on stage to a known satanic hymn..Ave Satana! Paula was dressed in blood red satin...the lighting hit the curtain behind them and met together,forming a quick Pentagram! There is some depth to it. As for the HELL bull, read your Bible properly and see that today's modern evangelists are telling you fairy tales.Because they are controlled and are part of an evil sect! Yahuwah Bless you all and open your eyes!
If you add up all the numbers of the scripture
the...
Mark 8:36-37 - "
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?"
8+3+6=17+3+7=27
The 27 club

Curious & Believers are invited to East Ghost . Com where topics such as this are pursued extensively, positively, sanely, critically and politely, always with open minds, always with the goals of truth, understanding and enlightenment.
Many comments seem strangely Hell-bent against what's all around us. For those seeking deeper and more critical info: Search youtube for SOLD THEIR SOULS FOR ROCK AND ROLL. Read Dave McGowan's excellent research into "Inside Laurel Canyon". Rear Dr. Len Horowitz' astounding MUSICAL CULT CONTROL, which reveals how all modern music is corrupted and bent towards evil as a result of the musical scale itself being set against humanity by military goals and Rockefeller power - all backed up by dozens of specific sources. See on youtube G. Craige Lewis' TRUTH BEHIND HIP HOP to learn how the rap culture is meant to corrupt. Search for "michael jackson corybantes" and prepare to be blown away as ancient texts describing evil spirits very specifically describe the King of Pop. Then watch MJ tell you himself how, in his "room of mirrors", he summoned the spirit of Liberace and slept for days in twilight, attempting to commune with spirits for lyrics and music, a situation directly tied to his death. Watch in their own words, as MJ and thousands of other performers talk about "channeling" - such as Eminem's "SLIM SHADY", Joni Mitchell's muse named "ART", the demonic spirit frequenting Ozzie, the demon fifth-member of Black Sabbath, named Black Sabbath, and how it delivered their first three albums of content. Don't miss Carlos Santana explain how the spirit named METATRON spelled out exactly what he was to do and how his 2000 album SUPERNATURAL would come to propel an unholy agenda. Watch, listen, and read their own words, get the direct sources, and finally sign off as the true idiots and disinfo agents who seem to have overwhelmed the comments on this post.
See also vigilant citizen . com for fantastic analyses of the outright and overwhelming Luciferian (Freemasonic) agenda behind Amerika today and the long-sought New World Order, pinnacle of Hell on Earth.
Search youtube for "yes we can backwards" and listen to Obama himself say "Thank you Satan" - loud and as clear as day, with various intonations. THOUSANDS of songs contain backmasking. It's much, much more prevalent than wikipedia indicates. Search for "jack black satanic prayer" and watch a major dude at the industry's major event lead a prayer to Satan. The incredulous and those who keep themselves willingly blind and deaf because they refuse to see and hear, well, we can only hope you'll take the growing challenges to open your minds using any or all of the various sources listed.
In a very real way, it doesn't matter if you DON'T believe any of it, because the people working against for these very dark forces, DO believe it. And eventually, without your care and stake also, the darkness will grow to the point of finally affecting you and everyone else. Let's hope more minds and hearts open before that can happen.
Are you kidding me? You can hear ANYTHING if you're listening for it. This is all total bullshit. You can hear it if you're told to hear it. I believe in the Devil, but this is ridiculous. Music exists as a vessel for creativity and entertainment for others. And yes, I believe it's a possibility that some artists try to convey a negative message, but no one is forcing you to listen to anything. Much of the world today is corrupt, especially entertainment. Music, TV shows, movies. That DOES NOT mean that Satan is behind it. It means that human kind itself is perverted and twisted. And how do you know for sure that the sounds you're hearing (say, if a song is turned backwards) weren't altered in any way? You people are paranoid yips and you look too much into lyrics. Instead of blaming the Devil, how about blame yourselves?
As someone who has been heavily into rock music for most of my life since age 11 when I first got into Iron Maiden,acdc and played inbands of my own and recorded music I can testify to losing myself on stage and not remembering anything aboout the performance which some start testify to..I recorded some music by myself at home for which I seemed to be under a spell and would shut myself in a room compulsively recording and mixing some dark gothic music which I posted on vampire freaks....now after watching they sold their souls for rock n roll and all the other illuminati documentatries I have come to realise I was conned and can relate to being unconciously manipulated like so many.I have recently delted all such satanic music from my mp3 and uploaded some christian alt rock which aint half bad,and repented to Jesus....this stuff is real and is serious..I used to be one of the people going on about ignorant christians and theres no harm in the music....do your research man...its all out there and decide ....what have you got to lose in the end but but your soul.
want to at this juncture commend you for your effort in bringing this life saving truth to the fore.Many so called free thinkers are indeed blind.It takes extra human spirit for anybody to understand this, so God should open their spiritual understanding . That is my prayer.
acordin 2 my undastandin.. God created christ n satan 2 simply show yuu that the is light in2 yuu n darkness...take yuur emotion 4 an example when yuu angry we c the bad side of yuu, but when yuu smilling is the good side...
I just have that since i started to lisen to rock all i think about is bad just a lot fear and darkness i opened the door to im really freaked out now cuz in my sleep ill be reapting the lyrics to rock music and having nightmares and a voice telling me to search for more darkness trying to pull me away i need God the Lord Jesus Christ pls other believers pray for me
Ok...I read a number of these comments. What I saw were two extremes. It seems to pretty much be the ultra relegous and the ultra non relegous. Now if I had to pick a group, I think I most identify with the first group. However.....people who are truly influenced by music are weak individuals. Plain and simple. As far as different people over the years who commit horrendous crimes and blame it on the music.... come on! It's a defense strategy, plain and simple. Music is to be enjoyed. You don't live your life due to the "message" in the songs. Hell, most of the musicians don't either. If you don't care for Metal, don't listen to it. You don't need to justify your dislike by searching for spirtual reasons why you don't like it. Change the station. I love all kinds of music, though my favorite tends to be heavy on the guitars, drums, and screams. That's my personal choice. If I choose to listen to Marilyn Manson instead of the Vienna Boys Choir, that's my choice. I'm not an evil person. It's entertainment. Sorta like a horror movie with music instead. As far as those who kept talking about how close minded Christians are.... I'm a Christian. I'm quite open minded. I have noticed during my life that those who claim to be the most open minded often turn out to be extremely close minded with anyone who doesn't agree with their OPINION. If I offended both of the extremes, I did what I set out to do!! :-)
An interesting fact is that in numerology, adding 2+7=9, and 9 represents infinity. My theory is that if the artists' intention in being part of the 27 club was for their name to live on, maybe that has something to do with it.
I BELIEVE THAT GOD, SATIN, AND MUSIC ARE ALL LIKE ONE BIG SANDWITCH. YOU ONLY HAVE TO TASTE IT TO KNOW WEATHER IT IS INFLUENSED BY GOD OR SATIN. NOW, A BUNCH OF ARTISTS DYING AT THE AGE OF 37, THAT'S ALSO MUCH LIKE A SANDWITCH. BUT IT IS SIMPLY TOO LENTHLY TO DISCUS HERE. YOU WOULD HAVE TO POSSESS THE SAME INTELECTIUL FACULTIES AS MYSELF TO UNDERSTAND.
Random Guy " Sympathy for the Devil " is inspired by the book " The Master and the Margaretta " , it isnt about worshiping Satan it is about something else , it is about comunism and stuff .
nirvana's drummer dave groul believes in GOD and believes if u killed yourself u will go to hell. kurt cobain was a christian as well he was also baptize
Hello i would like to say this was an interesting read but i must say it is a little bit one sided. As a avid listener of rock since I was 5 (i am now 15) I must express my feelings on this. I am a christian i believe in God and do not nor have i ever wanted to worship satan. I also am morally stronger than most people me age. I do not believe in sex before marride doing drugs and or drinking. I also have never had a desire to cause physical harm to myself or anyone else. I feel like this entire article was almost used as a way to chastise the rock genre. It might have just been my perception of it but it was as i stated near the begining of this post very biased. I respect your opinion on this subject since everyone is entitled to their own but i just had to also express mine in a very non gramatical disoriented post.
