Cameron recently tagged along to a metal concert headlined by a band that flirts with satanic themes. But there's a reason the word "satanic" appears in scare quotes in the title. Is this a sincere conviction on the part of these musicians? Or is this a clever marketing strategy to scare parents and get the attention of their kids? And what does it say about our supposedly secular society that a band like this gets top billing? (And what band are we talking about? Listen to find out.) Here, Nathan and Cameron explore the strange and deeply spiritual terrain of pop culture, consider some of the double standards, and try to make sense of what happened in that concert venue.
