...where metal music was not allowed in their house? Like, it didn't matter what the lyrical content or anything was at all, but no matter what, metal was forbidden from the household? I was just wondering...

I never have, but I did come across someone who has a mom who listens to stuff like AC/DC, The Ramones, The Misfits, etc., who won't allow country music in her house.

I think it's ridiculous to properly deny any genre of music in a house hold. There's just no basis for it.

Oh yeah...a couple. I had a couple of friends who came from very religious families that didn't allow ROCK at all!

Does she have any children?
Does she allow other non-conformist/aggressive music (like rap and punk) in her house at all?

my father in law would never allow it in his home. not because of religion, but because he thought it was to noisy.

When I was a kid and it was premiering on TV, my parents did not want me to watch "Kiss Meets the Phantoms of the Park". I saw it at a friend's house instead. Seems really silly now, but I guess my parents had their reasons at the time.

My mom wasn't real fond of George Thorogood either. "All he ever sings about is drinking!!"

I knew many people like this from churches I have attended. I went to a
church one time that disallowed any heavy metal at all but they were ok
with rap, rock, etc. They would bring in guest like Mylon Lefevre and
Daniel Band, but when they found out I was in Ultimatum, they wouldn't
even allow us to hang us a flyer for a show we were doing. I have a
tape of the pastor saying that all heavy metal, including Christian
metal, is nothing but incantation. He urges parents to go home and
destroy their kids heavy metal album. He also says, "Christian metal?
Bullcorn!!! There ain't no such thing!" It actually would be pretty
funny if I didn't know he was serious. Sad thing is, I know some
parents who went home and destroyed their kids music collections. The
trouble it caused was unreal. It was a totally STUPID thing to tell
people to do. What did these parents think their kids were gonna
do? "Oh thank you mom, I am no free from the bondage of that heavy
metal music." Mad

My wife oft tells the stories of growing up in a household where "secular" rock was frowned upon...and how she used to record over her store bought Christian cassettes with mainstream metal and rock...to listen to them in her walkman.....

I was lucky as my parents were not to judgemental in what I listened to...

Fortunately my parents really didn't worry much about what I was listening to growing up. Even when the famous PMRC hearings were on the 6 o'clock news and my brother and I were going "I have that! I have that! I have that one too!" for virtually every album cover Tipper and her friends were holding up as examples of the "Filthy Fifteen," they were like "Well, we assume you're smart enough to know the difference between right and wrong," and they didn't buy into the "Heavy music makes kids evil" nonsense at all. Thanks, Mom and Dad! Smile

I happen to love music, to me its not only the greatest art form in the world but IMo it single handedly keeps this world from becoming boring and mundane. to not allow any genre to be played anywhere is just plain dumb. whatever......

My best friend got kicked out of his house at 17 for owning a Van Halen album. He lived with me for a year before joining the Marines. He is now a sucsessful father of 3, guess he survived the "devil music".

I've heard a few horror stories like that too. As if the parents thought ther kids were going to "straighten up and fly right" once there were no Motley Crue cassettes in the house?? If anything, the kids are going to become even angrier and more resentful... if that had happened to me (thankfully it didn't), I would've been like "You thought you had teenage rebellion BEFORE? Well, it's ON now!"

I already told this story in another thread but I once was asked to leave my Sunday school class when the teacher started spouting all the classic B.S. stories about AC/DC standing for "Anti-Christ/Devil's Children," that KISS stood for "Knights In Satan's Service," that Ozzy killed puppies on stage during his concerts, etc., etc. The following week I went back with my Motley Crue "Allister Fiend" t-shirt on and they didn't find that very funny either. I guess I was just a bad seed. Smile

In 9th grade, my mom refused to let me go see Bryan Adams because of all the "pot heads".

Yet, she'd drop my brother & I off at the colusiem to go to wrestling matches.

lol!

One of my old schoolmates had parents who were anti rock music. The usual, rock is satan junk. I thought it died out in to 80's finally, I was wrong.

Never encountered something like this, but I'm sure I will. I guess you could say I already have because any Metal is not really allowed in school. I have to listen to it in secret, Suspect

My family was like that; they were the same way with hardcore.

I had to sneak all my old albums in. In fact, when I was a Christian teen, I had to tell my mother that I was doing "research," like Bob Larson or something. Sometimes, I would have to come up with creative ways to convince my mother that the music was "Christian"--like telling her that Suicidal Tendencies ministered to those suffering from depression, or something like that. It occasionally worked, if the album art was tame enough.

I think there are really two issues here...

1. I don't think anyone should have to listen to anything that is annoying or offensive to them in their own home; it's an invasion of privacy and noise pollution. And parents do have a legal right to make some descisions for their children. Ironically I had to lay down the law when my elderly parents were living in my home; I had to ask them not to watch certain TV programs that I found offensive. I told them that my peace and quiet was too valuable to be polluted by Oprah talking to some quack psychic or something...and needless to say I used head phones for my metal when the old timers were there. Just recipricol courtesy.

2. Parents trying to exert complete control over their childrens minds and lives...that's a different issue. If I had kids I would just tell them I thought the music was stupid and why, I don't want to hear it, and to go listen to it at their friends house or something. I think trying to exert complete control over media consumption (even outside the home) is a losing battle; and usually results in rebellion rather than conformitiy.
