Get Psyched!: Scientists studied the effect of death metal music on people’s emotions/whether it desensitizes fans to violence. Turns out if you’re a fan of this style of music, it can make you feel better. It also does not appear to desensitizes fans to violence. This was measured by having people look at images and seeing if they were drawn to the violent image. The result was the same for metal fans and non-metal fans.
