I have a googlephonic stereo with a moon rock needle. It's okay for a car stereo; I wouldn't want it in my house



Illegal Music just sounds better

Posted by Anonymous

I recently accidentally overheard some Illegal Music being played, and I was overwhelmed by the depth and emotion in the sound.  Some people say Illegal Music is the same as any music that is approved for listening by government and industry, but I beg to differ.  There is just something about Illegal Music that you can feel in your chest.  It moves you.  I'm not sure how to describe it, other than that it really just sounds better.

I think it might have something to do with the taboo factor.  It is a forbidden fruit.  Perhaps there are illegal bits in it, which add power to the music or something.  All I know is, it was exciting to hear this secret, subversive sound coming from the speakers, and now that I have a taste for it, I want to hear more.

I don't think the cops were on to me, and I hope I escaped the RIAA Illegal Music taser-squads and their fines and jail-time.  Luckily, this country doesn't have the death penalty, so I know that if I hear something that breaks the law, at least they won't kill me for it.

Are there other types of forbidden music that might also induce this type of excitement?  Are there Terrorist Tunes?  Are there War Crimes Chants?  Music that is criminal is one thing, but is there music that wears furs or clubs baby seals?


Yes, Illegal Music is BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BADB AD BADB AD BAD B BAD BAD BAD BADB ADB ADB ADB ADB BDA BAD BADB ADB ADB B ADB ADB ADBAD BADB ADB BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BADB AD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BDA BADB A BAD BAD BAD BAD BADB AD BADB AD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD, but it sounds sooooooooooo good!  If you have the means, I highly recommend picking some up.  If you get busted, tell the cops that while you did let some of it get into your ear, you didn't listen it into your brain.


PS. I heard that if you play Illegal Music backwards, the devil will come through the walls and sue you.

I guess I could point out that this is an obscure commentary on the term "Illegal Music", which I've seen capitalized on forums like that. People seem to talk about it like it's a well-defined physical thing, and is toxic or something. Don't touch it! Leave it to the RIAA guys in their HazMat suits to deal with. In fact don't even think about it. Yes, Illegal Music is untouchable... Mission Accomplished RIAA! But what does it even mean? Do people even know, or are they just afraid of what they think RIAA will do to them? It's treated as if "I paid for it = legal" is the main point, and that there are international, inalienable laws governing it. Is it still not a violation of copyright law in Canada to make copies of music for personal individual use? Who knows any more. Collectively, we base our knowledge and our emotional response on what the industry tells us, rather than what the law or our own common sense tells us, because of those 3, industry has the biggest interest in steering how we think. And in some countries, while law is still based on common sense (which is good, because we don't all want to always be thinking for ourselves), there is increasing pressure to give more power to industry.
