Sound is Dangerous!

To me, it's all a load of Bollocks...!

"Woodward claims that binaural sounds are similar to getting high on marijuana, cocaine, opium, and peyote. He also claims that children are buying a 40-page instruction manual that instructs them on how to locate and get high off the droning tracks. He also claims that the "digital drugs" will take children down a dark path of self destruction and harder drugs!":salute:
 
What was that? I can't hear ya ... oh! wait, I'll turn down the sound ...

There ...


Actually sound is dangerous. I was a DJ in a Rockers Bar for 4 years and at this time in my life I am now tone deaf, and have such a severe case of tinnitus that sometimes I can't think.

Addictive? Oh my yes! Nothing like the good old sounds of 70s classic rock ... very very addictive!
 
If they would've said you could get high off of Pink Floyd, I would say maybe.
Pearl Jam...meh...there's a reason why Binauaral never went Platinum. Yawn...listeners fell asleep before they got to the end of Track 2. :)

I listened briefly to the link to "Gates of Hades".....

Geez, a few minutes of that, and I could easily see someone going bonkers!

"Sounds" like something Bender from "Futurama" would do... :icon_lol:
 
Yes yes sound can be dangerous, going deaf from listening to REALLY loud music, not waering headsets when flying ( I wear a noise canceling set BTW, one of the best investments I have ever made!), and of course a myriad of other deafing ways to destroy your hearing...


...but this? The 'digital dosing' or what ever a 'bad' thing? I thought people listen to music sometimes to feel good....

"Binaural sound, first discovered in 1839 by Heinrich Wilhelm Dove, indeed has a profound impact on brain waves. However, in the past this impact has shown to be generally positive, with side effects such as reduced anxiety and pain relief."


.....Oh right yeah, like that really sounds like a bad thing!


I love listening to Staind's "Its been a while", or Creed's "Faceless-man" Always makes me feel 'high'. Then again so goes pushing the throttle wide open on take off in a C-172 or BE-95.

What next? Are they going to ban anything that gives a good old adrenaline rush? Or better yet, will they not allow young people to date because of the good feeling it may cause? Because of course those things could lead to drugs!


My comment to those politicians is, clam up, GTHO, (Get the heck out), and get a freaking life!

Now I'm off to blast some Zekes and Listen to some Rise Against, and I'm planning on getting an adrenaline rush!
