Backmasking
Backmasking is a technique artists use to add hidden messages to their music which can be discovered by listening to music backwards. This is rumored to be the only real way of finding messages from Satan himself and the Colonel's secret recipe of 11 herbs and spices. Perhaps this is the only good way of listening to modern music.

Notable examples[edit]
The practice was popularized by the Beatles in their 1966 album Revolver. After listening to one of their songs backwards, if someone isn't praising Satan (e.g. non-Jew), there is something morally wrong with them.
Since then other artists such as Pink Floyd have done this for the lulz, Queen, Iron Maiden and Judas Priest also tried but failed. Queen's attempt was nothing more than a simple message about smoking weed.
