Résumé : |
Is rock music wrong? Is it dangerous? Does it really have its roots in pagan Africa? Does its beat incite immoral behavior? Can there be such a thing as Christian rock music?
Contemporary music, especially rock, continues to stir deep feelings and hot tempers. Steve Lawhead considers the nature and image of rock music, seeking answers to these emotion-packed questions. Lawhead peels away the image rock musicians project to get to the real issues—the music itself and the message it carries. He researches the roots of rock music and the thesis that rhythm excites our baser instincts. And he calls all listeners to be responsible for applying the standards of good art and examining the messages of rock music before passing judgment on it. |
