Rock Urban Myths Needed!

[Xzyliac]

Supposedly, if you play the original cut of Dark Side of the Moon during the Wizard of Oz, starting from the second roar of the MGM Lion on to the credits, the album runs perfectly in sync with the movie. My uncle says he did it, I tried it with my CD and it didn't work. My uncle explained to me that it is because the CD and record have been edited differently and actually have different run times. Alas, he sold his record to a collector...

Woah. That's a good one.

something about the big Mayhem incident maybe? or if Kurt Cobain's suicide could've been murder.

[Akaymay]

The whole Judas Priest incident where if you listen to one of their songs enough, you'll be driven to suicide due to hidden subliminal messages. There was a whole court case about it.

that is not a urban myth. during "Better By You, Better Than Me" (which is a cover song by the way) if you play backwards you can hear the words "do it" but the band said this was meant to mean buy more of our records. talk about your all time backfires....also during "beyond the realms of death" if you play it from the ending backwards the first thing you hear is "I took my life"

pretty sick to hear about but wat did dead's (singer of a band called mayhem) suicide note say. ppl have told many tales from "sorry about the mess" to longer essay style notes. plus the band taught it wud be cool to photo this and use it as a bootleg album cover (Dawn of the Black Hearts) i wud put a link to it somewhere but wud be afraid of getting banned for linking to offense material so look it up yourself if you want to, warning not for the light hearted

heres a pretty common one nobody has mentioned yet. Brett Meisner was at jim morrison's grave when somebody took a picture of him, when they had it developed morrison was seen clearly in the background behind meisner. ever since the guys had bad luck with unemployment, losing his wife, and all over horrible luck. heres a pic http://home.att.net/~chuckayoub/Jim_...on_ghost-2.jpg

think you got a few things wrong there
in court there was no conclucive evidence that it said do it and the band said (paraphrased of course) telling our fans to kill them selves would be counter productive if we were gonna have a subliminal message it would be something like 'buy your records'

[hardter]

well you learn something new every day. i just kno that cause my mate is the biggest judas priest fan i kno and he never shuts up about them. cant wait to throw that in his face that he was wrong now and he may finally be quiet

They say that you can hear the scream of a woman being murdered during the bridge of Roller Coaster of Love.

I heard a faint scream, but I doubt that that's what it is.

[Eastwood]

Plus it was done during a time when everyone in the band was screaming... the alleged screamer was killed in the studio with guiatr wire, though...
