5. In your opinion (always a great start) do emo/death/suicide type songs actually have an influence on people ?
In my opinion, such music certainly could have an influence over the people --- actually the brain, because sound waves definitely do have an effect on the brain. The effect appears to be compounded when there's both music and words.
For example, I always find 'Danse Macabre' somewhat disturbing to listen to. Liszt is always enervating, and Mozart is simply beautiful. Kieren Fahy and Brad Prevodoros are 2 of my personal favourites, with their instrumental Celtic music, and the latter intersperses the guitar with sea and other nature sounds, which is just Sublime !
