But maybe Led Zepplin was guided by Satan, to say certain things that would say what it says when it is played backward. <p>I know that sounds crazy, but you never know! : %) <br></blockquote><br>Even if I believed in satan, I wouldn't think he would have any reason to 'guide' bands like that to no ultimate purpose. Personally I think the whole "___ band is SATANIC!!!!!" is extremely stupid and ignorant.<br>Take Slayer for example; heheh, they could be interpreted as extremely satanic, and that's their intention. Shock value. Sure, it may be kinda stupid, but it's their image. Do you think they are REALLY 'guided by the devil'?<br>As was previously mentioned, Iron Maiden could be wrongly interpreted as satanic. Black Sabbath could also be interpreted as such... Along with any number of other bands you can think of, if you WANT to see satanic messages in them.<br>Even if old bands like Led Zep did put satanic messages in their songs, my guess would be they're laughing at the people who actually believe it.<br>I have no problem with religeon; it's ridiculous assumptions on behalf of it and/or zealotism that get to me. Note I'm not specifically accusing anyone here. :p
