Why Do Some Christians Consider Certain Music to Be “evil” but Aren’t Afraid to Watch Horror Movies?

Question by wiz@debian:~$ whoami : Why do some Christians consider certain music to be “evil” but aren’t afraid to watch horror movies?
Hi I listen to a variety of music. Anything from metal to country. I like bands like Metallica,Megadeth, Pantera and ect. Dave Mustaine who is the frontman of the band Megadeth is a Christian! There was a show somewhere in Europe I think where this Death Metal band who uses satanic imagary and lyrics wanted to tour with Megadeth. But Mustaine refused their invitation, saying he did not agree anything they stood for. But yet some are still critical of them. Metallica wrote a song known as “Creeping Death” which was based on the movie “The Ten Commandments” It is off the album Ride The Lightning. If you read the lyrics it will be confirmed! Why is some stuff labeled “evil” or “satanic” when it isn’t? And why is some stuff like television violence acceptable? Metallica’s “Master of Puppets” is a song about drug addiction meaning that drugs kill! And another one off the same album “Leper Messiah” meaning the money savior. A song about crooked evangelists. Nothing satanic at all!
