Alex Jaffray, music columnist for Télématin, shares his passion for music, which allowed him, as a child, to communicate with notes rather than words.

Metal Mania (1989) boldly exposes heavy metal's satanic agenda targeting youth. Bob Larson interviews bands like Slayer and Laaz Rockit, revealing demonic lyrics, backmasking, and occult imagery designed to corrupt souls—contrasted with authentic Christian metal as the godly alternative. From the 80s satanic panic era, this isn't neutral concert footage—it's urgent media discernment calling believers to reject hellish rock rebellion and protect the next generation through faith-filled music. Powerful wake-up call against cultural poison.

Based on their book, “Why Knock Rock?”, and their church lectures, Dan and Steve Peters examines how rock music's obsession with sex, drugs and suicide is dangerous to young people. Since the dawn of Rock and Roll, there has been ministers howling about its evil affects. Ministers would tour the country's churches and college campuses with sermons and slide shows illustrating the Devil's influence on the rock music. In this film we certainly see that rock stars aren't the best role models for kids and teens, but the Peters brothers often miss the musician's point – especially with some of the lyrics. Dan and Steve do however seem to take a delight in presenting some of the 1980s more perverse album covers to young people.
