I have a relationship with Jedi Mind Tricks that makes me a little uncomfortable. They sound good. I really like their sound but when you listen to their lyrics it is really awful. Lots of anti-gay, hateful and other stuff that is really not what I am about. I have settled into just listening to the music because it sounds good and ignoring the lyrics but it gets hard. I don’t worry that the music is going to sway me to that viewpoint… I am not that weak willed. Really I just wonder how others deal with music they enjoy the sound of but feel uncomfortable about the meaning behind.
Ouch, that’s disappointing. I know about Manson these days but in the early days of Korn, I was still watching Saturday morning cartoons and didn’t even know they existed yet. So I missed them getting called out. I guess the moral of this story is, kill your idols.
Fully agree
