Clamshell's weekly journal

[Shannon]

Anything you hear enough times, whether it is directed at you personally, will affect your subconscious "program". That's one of the biggest problems we have in the United States: some of what is allowed by freedom of speech in musical terms is terribly negative programming, and it shows up in how the listeners think about the world around them. It depends heavily on what the lyrics are of course, but don't think it isn't affecting your thinking just because it isn't directed at you personally.

And as to your question, no, it won't damage your speakers.

Your family sounds a lot like mine -- addicted to negativity.
