hating as it gets, their name says it all. Their brand of death punk/garage metal has gained some notoriety and a small following. Sadly, they will never be taken as a serious musical entity because of their very critical message, and of course their blasphemous moniker.
Rock music is a music of rebellion. It is critical of the authority that is present at the time and is persistently trying to start a revolution against the powers that be. These powers are sometimes called "The Man," and this all powerful man tends to be a white, Christian male in a position of power such as CEO of a large company or has a place of status in a governmental organization. Rock music is constantly attacking this man and Devil Music is of course attacking one aspect of "The Man," his Christianity. This of course is why it is almost impossible to find rock music that criticizes other religions such as Islam or Buddhism.

Depending upon the person, rock music will always benefit or plague Western society. Much to the dismay of many people, the brand of rock that is openly critical of society's deepest beliefs, its religion, is gaining more and more popularity. Provided that Westerners have freedom of speech, they will have to deal with messages that they don't always want to hear, that is the essence of free will.
