For a while it seemed as if devil worshipping was quite popular in the music community.

I should have qualified my question with "apart from the fact that all rock is about devil worship." Btw, no offense or anything, but except in a 'punny' sense, Mr Roboto is not even close to heavy metal, IMO. In fact, Styx is more like bad broadway theatre (and bear in mind I was in a cover band that covered at least 10 Styx songs, so I know whereof I speak) than it is like heavy metal, but I digress.
When I was a DJ we had these cool turntables that you could play backwards and, having nothing better to do with my life, I spent a number of hours listening to certain Beatles tunes for "Paul is Dead" and to certain Rolling Stones songs for anything to do with the devil. I never heard any of it. I could never find anythign close to a message in any of this stuff.
