Songs deemed unsuitable for society in the 1980’s & other Satanic Panic relevant media.

Re-visit the 1980’s Satanic Panic with various era relevant media clips & see the music videos accused of being too explicit for society- deemed “The Filthy 15 List” by the PMRC, who tried and failed to have them censored

In the mid 80’s, a group of women (consisting mostly of US senator’s wives) attempted to (unsuccessfully) wage war against heavy metal & pop music.

They made a list of 15 songs (“The Filthy 15”) deemed inappropriate for society’s consumption, mostly based upon their own dimwitted interpretations of what they believed the songs to be about, to use as a weapon in their war against freedom of speech in the arts/music.
