DeadlyFred says,
I have to wonder what these people would think if they ever heard some real "horrorcore". Does the implication of violence make one a murderer? Guess it depends where you draw the line between art and a preemptive confession.

While I'm sure most people who make and listen to this sort of thing aren't given to any kind of action over it, that doesn't mean they can't be.

You know, I heard about this rapper a while back.. He rapped out this song how much he hated this guy and was gonna go knock on his door, beat his butt up then kill him..

Well, rappers like to pride themselves on talking about real life, so emote icon Hahaha. At least none of the crazy individuals in any death metal band has ever claimed to be "keeping it real", they're just strange and somewhat sick.

I was thinking more the likes of Cannibal Corpse, Carcass, Napalm Death and w/e emote icon ... I swear I think they just copy forensics/mortuary reports rather than writing lyrics sometimes.

Sufficed to say, if fans of THAT acted out more often we'd have a lot more "interesting" news to rag about, that's for sure.

ok, its one thing to say that music doesn't influence peoples actions (which i don't believe, how do you think they brainwash someone?) but it's another when your friends or family member start to put up songs like this randomly.. i think id check it out right away, it would seem strange to me and i'd wonder why. I'd probably call the police just to do a welfare check which they are happy to do.. but that's just me.
