Summary:An examination of the alleged links between rock music and Satanism. Christian fundamentalists claim that subliminal messages in many records are causing teen- agers to commit suicide. Rock musicians, including Judas Priest, denied these accusations, claiming that a serious issue is at stake, namely the attacks on their artistic freedom and first amendment rights. The programme looks at other cases of censorship in the USA and asked whether we are witnessing a new cultural McCarthyism.
