Is headbanging really bad for the brain?And who started the whole headbang thing anyways?

probably the metalheads began the headbanging..it is bad anyway, because metal music is full of negative waves ( blah blah) and it affects the brain by this chaotical movement...it feels good anyway..people do things that harm them anyway so if you bang your head it's nothin.. \nbang on &#92;m/

It's the Emperor's New Clothes syndrome.  Of course the Emperor is naked, but do you want to be the one to say it?  Gangstas are idiots!  People who buy the music are mindless sheep.  The people who profit from selling the music to our youth are murderers.  I believe they will all pay a precious price for their acts.  But be realistic, a lot of people are getting rich, and money makes the World go around.  There I said it.  Happy?  I'm glad you are awake.  I often feel like I live in a land of zombies.

This is analogous to asking if bumping your head on a branch can kill you as you are falling 1000' off of a cliff...\n\nPlease check yourself into a program and throw Tina out...

The mind is indeed a terrible thing to waste.  If you read through a few questions on this site you will see a tremendous amount of waste. Once you drop down below the idiot and moron levels it's pretty much an unrestrained freefall, and here is where they end up.\n\nJust read the two answers right above this and you will see good examples of rampant, runaway waste.  Then look at the spelling of the word 'terrible' in the answer just below.  Soda, burgers, and TV do not create mindlessness as much as chat rooms, video games, and iPods.

I once drilled a hole in my head...to let the pressure out. but you have to be careful or else it will kill you. The song had been in my head for 3 years all day.

Unless you have suffered brain damage in the past then youare already using 100% of your brain.\n\nThe idea that people only use 10% of their brain is an urban myth. It was popularised up by hippies in the 1960s to support their beliefs in mystical new age energy, telepathy, auras and other psuedocscience.\n\nAll normal humans use 100% of their brain. People who claim otherwise may have suffered brain damage and be using less. It would explain a lot.\n\n\nRyu said "Erm, it is not possible to use 100% of our \n>>>>> brain. For normal person, he will only have used about \n>>>>> 4 % of his brain until the day he died. People who can \n>>>>> operate their brain untill 5 % and above we call them >>>>> genious\n\nErm, putting it politely that is Grade A bullshit. There is no scientific basis to your claims whatsoever. \n\nGeniuses use exactly the same amount of their brain as everyone else: 100%\n\nSee the link blelow if you want to know what actual scientists have to say on the matter.

yes, I thrash to Slayer, and it helps me clear my system of all aggression. If I am driving then I usually run over a couple of squirrels, whilst thrashing away..rock on and relax dude.

sure to a point.  i think rock/ hip hop music helps for a better workout.  i think easy listening helps with a stressful day but i don't think heavy metal or gangster rap causes someone to shoot and kill another human being.  those evil thoughts were already in their minds before the music started.

Oh wow. yes.  NIN's "Head Like a Hole" from "Pretty Hate Machine" is an incredibly powerful song, and as I recall the original video was equally as powerful.  Who says Music isn't good propaganda?  I think that song is awesome.  I'd use it, if I were you.  Hehe.

I don't think that music affects people's minds.  I am so tired of people saying that music affects the way we think.  People accuse music for all the bad things that happen in society and don't bother to look at the real reason as to why things are done and why they happen.  Music is an enhancement to life and is a stress reliever no matter what type of music is listened to.  Music helps people.

Yes, but sometimes I seem to get a bit out of control. I love music so much && I get into it && start closing my eyes when I sing the really sensative && amazing parts of the songs. Or when I listen to hard rock I sing along and bang my head which is a really bad combo but, otherwise I love it!\n&& I hope you do too.

Possible.  Smoking is bad for your health all the way around.  It has been known to restrict the arteries, thereby decreasing the bloodflow to the heart and brain.  So, I'm saying, yeah, sounds right.  I'm guessing he told you that to make sure you never start smoking, and I hope you never do.  Terrible, nasty, expensive habit (I know, I smoked for 11 years) that will only kill you early and painfully.  Don't bother with it.

That 10% story has fallen to Urban Myth status.  New medical imaging techniques can now show which parts of the brain are in use during particular functions, such as speaking, reading, listening to music, etc.  Turns out that your brain uses many differnt parts to do most functions, but certiain functions TEND to concentrate in particular areas.\n\nWhat remains of the myth, though, may actually help understand what I said in the last paragraph.  Many people who have hade severe brain damage and loss of many functions, can sometimes regain at least some ot those functions when the brain learns to use other, undamaged parts to do what the damaged parts used to.\n\nYeah, a vital organ.  An artificial heart can keep a person going, but with no brain, even a beating heart runs in an empty shell.

Fist isn't bad. I also believe another band goes by that name. I wonder if these guys know that. Too bad that they only have 12 days to get the band together. I would love to hear what they could come up with if given more time.\n\nAnswer: Goldie Lox Box or maybe, Bashing Skulls.

No, its a rumor. I read his autobiography "Long hard road out of hell". He gave the guitarist of nine inch nails a blowjob on stage one time. And somehow the other rumor got started.
