The power of the music you listen to over one's action cant be overemphasized. Still the naivety of some people marvels me. Musicians should be mindful of what they sing or their lyrics because there some people gullible enough to practice it.
Truman Edley, who was just 15 at the time of his death,
hanged himself in the hallway of the family home in Rotherham after he had been
listening to the violent music.
A coroner refused to name the band he was listening to or
publish the extreme lyrics which formed part of the evidence at the inquest in
Rotherham.
The official also noted that Truman had been suffering
from a number of problems, and his mother said that he had 'self-esteem'
issues. The teenager, who was named after American indie band
Trumans Waters, frequently listened to death metal through headphones.
She discovered his body at their home in November 2011,
two months after she had found him sobbing in his bedroom wardrobe. On another occasion, she found scratches on his arm - he
said that he had done it while messing around in the woods, but two friends
asked him to visit a youth support service, fearing he had been self-harming.
Mrs Edley described her son as 'loving' and said he was
fiercely protective of his loved ones.
'He was one of the most kind, loving and caring people,'
she said. 'We told each other that we loved each other every day.
'He became a stereotypical teenager, like the Harry
Enfield character Kevin. He was more interested in spending time with friends
and took increasing pride in his appearance.'
