Sorry if I posted this in the wrong section (maybe it’s the right one though). Well in any case, if I did, I’m sorry, but can you answer me this:

Is it a grave sin to listen to music that blasphemes or rather uses the theme of angels/demons/hell in a song, but for the wrong purposes.

What I mean is for example, in Kurt Cobain’s “Lake of Fire”, there is a lot of religious vocabulary used (for entertainment). This is an extract of the lyrics from the song (Lake of Fire):

"Where do bad folks go when they die? They don’t go to Heaven where the angels fly. They go to a Lake of Fire and Fry!! See em again till the forth of July! I know of a lady who came from duluth, she got bid by a rabid’s tooth, she went to her grave just a little too soon, flew away howling on the yellow moon!"

So obviously my question is whether these types of lyrics are considered satanic and whether it’s a grave sin if we listen to it.

How could it be a grave sin? So what you’re saying is that if someone died after listening to this song that they would be eternally damned? It is not a grave sin to listen to songs such as this.
 
Thank you both of you! Yes I am aware that the question was probably silly, but I just simply wondered about whether it’s a sin to sing about hell,demons etc…
I haven’t been a real catholic (definately not in practice) for probably 10 years at least, so I need to get back on my feet.
But YES, once again thanks. One of my many questions have been answered, and everything related to it as well as a result :). Your comments were greatly appreciated.
