Some of these old blues songs were straight up demonic

Yeah it’s something demonic about the Blues cause I was just watching a YouTube video the other week and learned that it was a thing for Blues artist back in the day to claim they sold their souls to the devil
expression of emotions was associated with demonic possession

the devil only exists to those who believe in him :ehh: a weak person way of running away from their own self created evils

blues never hit to me for the most part

on-topic lyrics don't surprise me

they were living that life too

skip james was a bootlegger and pimp during the depression. he just moonlighted one of the eeriest blues singers ever on the side

geeshie wiley killed her husband and went on the run

Did she cut his throat?!

:picard:

Blues music gave Heavy metal, shock rock and gangster/horrorcore rap a style to run with:ehh::mjgrin:

Whats crazy is that if you sped it up, removed the repetition and expanded the vocabulary a bit, a lot of them would be horrorcore. Some of them was straight up rapping

:ohhh:

See My Face from the Other Side
“Their sisters behind bars were singing while they were in Grafton, just as they surely had been when L.V. was incarcerated as a teen and when Geeshie allegedly put a knife in her husband’s neck one year after their recording trip.”
