My mom threw all of my cassettes away after getting a tape from her church telling of the satanic messages subliminally added to the devil's soundtrack.

Ironically, she listened to the very same music decades later in her golden years. I'm assuming Jesus had had sufficient time to strip the messages out of the music.

Oh man, I am sorry about that! My mother did something similar: she threw all of her old vinyls away. I loved them as a kid! Jethro Tull, a couple of Dio records, Guns n Roses and lots of samplers with hair rock. Ironically I became a metalhead years later and still listen to black metal from time to time. Ha!
