KMFDM - Professional Killer

Perhaps, the point is not in the personality of the composer and not in his music, but in how the powerful people of this world position it? For manipulations with the consciousness of the masses, music is indeed a very convenient tool, since it does not carry anything specific in itself. The perception of music - or rather, the ability to it - depends on the individual characteristics of the personality, its cultural level, emotional makeup, character, even subjective associations. In light of the latter, it becomes especially clear why Wagner’s music can cause a negative reaction among those who went through the horrors of the Nazi regime, World War II, and concentration camps. But after all, the music of the USA anthem, created by A. V. Alexandrov and for many became the symbol of the Soviet regime, is exactly the same - yes, to prove the absurdity of such an approach to musical heritage,I will have to give this example! - may offend the feelings of the victims of the Stalinist camps.
