How can heavy metal be used to combat porn?

A group of Headbangers who want to obliterate pornography with the ultimate form of music... Metal!

    I'd be interested to hear some ideas from this group.
     
  2. Listening to Evanescence helped me for a certain period to stay strong, cause I felt this music kind of contrary to sexual pleasure, it was like changing the feelings. But it didn't work when the urge was to strong. I could fight some slight urges by listening to Evanescence. For strong urges I prefer some other techniques.

    I agree that some types of metal have higher degrees of sexual elements than others, I think that the mental state you're in when you make music is really important, if your head is filled with boobies then your chord progressions will reflect that, even if the lyrics aren't bad. Also agree about the strong urges, you need something more compelling to prevent relapse in those situations:

    Maybe it would help if a new wave of metal came around that had bands that embraced abstinence from masturbation, were anti-porn, and encouraged fans to chase real women instead of sexual fantasies. Sounds lame on paper but metal has always been about rebellion and right now the system wants us to jerk our dicks to porn and not have any kids! Food for thought, I guess.

    I don't know if this will help but Master of Puppets is a song about drug addiction, but it almost describes porn addiction, well to me.

    I find sometimes, that listening to Metal while I have strong urges, it buys me some more time to collect myself and take myself out of that immediate urge. I haven't tried it as much as I'd have like to now that I'm looking back, so next time I have an urge, I will put on a metal song, and then go do something completely else.

    I would think maybe try and find a really complex metal song, one which takes a lot of your attention, then go do something else without thinking back. I find the times where I do overcome urges, are where I am basically minimizing the time for my thoughts and keeping my mind absorbed in other activities.

    If you want really complex metal songs, start looking into progressive metal, e.g Opeth, Queensryche

    I heartily recommend Opeth's Blackwater Park

    EDIT: Granted, if you don't mind the growling vocals on it

    I'm listening to this song of primal fear, because is in frequency with my situation of abstinence. I quitted P and I need to be healed of my mind.
