Discovered recently that Electric Wizard were kinda dicks back in the day. “At the time, we were pretty bad people. I got arrested for arson of a car, outside a police station. Tim [Bagshaw] went to nick a crucifix off a church roof so we could use it onstage…”
R. L. Burnside killed a man “possibly at a craps game.”
Varg of Mayhem Burzum burned a couple churches and killed a bandmate.
I could list other examples, but would like to hear from other people and other music genres.
I was fairly partial to “tie me kangaroo down, sport” as a child of preteen years. Not to mention Gary Glitter songs.
Being bought up in the [UK] seventies comes with a lot of that kind of trauma these days.
I’m having to re-evaluate my life choices as a ten year old regularly in 2020s civilization.
