Geocache Description:

The next cache in the MM series. This one explores a little the messages behind the music.

I like songs with good beats, catchy tunes or just a strange or interesting hook. But those I remember and go back to and listen to again and again more often have a message behind the music. On creating the puzzle for this cache I found myself going and watching the Phil Collins Song In The Air Tonight with the gorilla playing the drums. Not only is it a good catchy song and an awesome video but the theme behind the lyrics makes me shiver every time I hear it. There are a great many Metal bands that have a message behind the music and whole albums are based around a theme such as Rust In Peace By Megadeth. No problem seems to be beyond comment to a Metal band. Seeking or wanting justice is a big theme but just as greatly sung about is a striving for freedom from tyranny and oppression of all kinds.

A small puzzle based on themes and justice will get you the proper coordinates.

6 Songs are listed (1-6) and 6 Bands Placing the number listed with the song in the scales so that it balances will correspond to the numbers required for the true coordinates from the band that sings the song. Read from the scales top to bottom, Left to right.

Cache is at S 43 38 _ _ _ E 172 21 _ _ _

1. War Pigs. A song no well known I would hope. The lyrics detailing the end and punishment of warmongers, those who profit and revel in conflict.
2. Hook In Mouth. The theme of censorship, especially to do with music and the fight against the few who think they know what music should and should not be listened too.
3. Biotech Is Godzilla. The dangers and problems that come with genetic and biological engineering that one day could spell disaster in the form of plagues and the creation of viruses that may end the human race.
4. And Justice For All. This one should be easy. The corruption of the Justice system where money rules and those that can afford the price can get off almost any crime.
5. Mine. War or more specifically religious war and the taking of land through war because they believe they have a God given right. In most cases the opposition also believe the same.
6. Frozen Asleep In The Park. The homeless but also the way many just turn a blind eye or sweep under the carpet the social problems of the modern world such as drugs and mental problems.
