I downloaded the song, opened it in Audacity (an audio editng/recording program), and selected the entire track, and made it reverse the entire track. There's a million (free) programs that can do it now.Quote:

Empty Spaces backwards message: "Congratulations. You have just discovered the secret message. Please send your answer to Old Pink, care of the Funny Farm, Chalfont."
Very Satanic.

Step one, slit my throat. Step two, bathe in my blood. Step three, cover me with bloody sheets and run laughing out of the house.Quote:

I watched some program on the Judas Priest backwards song court thing. They were let off as it was discovered they did not put backwards messages in their songs. They claimed that yes, you would hear messages if you wanted to. To prove a point they played a bit of music and asked the jury if they could hear anything. The jury said no. (Maybe it wasn't the jury...it was someone though...) Then they played it again, saying, ah, but there is a message, it's "Dogs go bark" Or something. It may not of been that, but it was something in that vein. Anyway, thats what the jury heard, thus proving that people are suggestible idiots who believe stuff.
Or something. The program put it a lot more eloquently, but basically it's all tripe.
Chaos
If you think about it christians are actually creating satan in music. They lead others to believe he's there essentially contaminating rock with all this satan crap.
It's not all bad. Franz Ferdinand's Michael has a backward masking that says 'Call your mother, she misses you.'
And who says rock and roll can't be a force for good?
not all christians
ultimately it's up to you what kind of message you see in music or any other form of art/entertainment
Why, I do believe they're right! ROCK IS EVIL AND CONTAMINATING OUR INNOCENT IMPRESSIONABLE YOUNG MINDS!
Thats it!! I'm forming a satanic cult of EoFFers!! We can sacrafice each other and listen to rock for 48 hours straight on weekends!! Whoever wants to join has to slit their wrists and record one backmasking!!
the articulations of speech aren't the same backwards and forwards, so it only sounds normal one way or the other. However, your mind takes in sounds it hears and tries to match them with sounds you've heard before, so if you think you hear a message when playing something backwards, your mind can help fill in the rough edges.
Yep, I heard that one. :DQuote:

Marilyn Manson has stated a number of times he's not a satanist.
The best example I can think of right now is at the beginning of either Get Your Gunn or Wrapped in Plastic on the portrait CD. I can't remember which right now but listen and you'll hear.
Edit: Okay, so it was neither of those. Try track 4 :) It had been too long since I heard that CD.
Never trust any Christian propaganda preaching about how 'evil' or 'anti christian' something is. It's always just a bunch of stupid conservative christians doing what they do best: mindless bitching.
:angel: :shoot:
Heh Heh... :radred: = Mr.Crowley
I remember someone telling me that satanism in rock n' roll probably hailed from people trying to get people not to listen to black music.
Actually, I think it was my mum.
Nevermind then.
