Well I mean more like music is used heavily to influence people. Make someone emotional with a song and it makes you far more susceptible to manipulation.

Even the "Christian music" genre you see now days. What do 99% of them songs do? Do they really praise? Do they really worship? If so what? Given the results of it id say they simply make people emotional and open to manipulation.

Beyond that alot of them songs use specific frequencies as is done in eastern mysticism.
