Frank Sinatra, Judas Priest & Billie Holiday: Songs That Kill?
About this episode
In this episode of Tape Spaghetti, Blake and Scott dive face-first into music’s weirdest death rumors and darkest true stories.
There’s the tearjerker blamed for a wave of suicides, a karaoke tune so deadly it practically needs a warning label, and a funk song with a scream that allegedly captured a murder on tape. Fun!
They unpack the infamous Judas Priest trial, where lawyers tried to prove metal made teens pull the trigger.
They explore SoundCloud rap’s tragic body count, AI-generated TikTok horror tracks, and the age-old human need to blame anything but ourselves.
Music, mayhem, moral panic... It’s all here.
So put on your headphones, dim the lights, and maybe don’t sing Sinatra in public. Just sayin’.
