Nick Cave has a lot of songs that go down this road

WARNING: don't play this with kids in the room. Or your grandparents. Or your pastor. (about the baddest-ass criminal in town and his penchant for shooting people and making epic threats)

(About planting a bomb in a hotel and blowing a bunch of people up, all the while thinking of your girl)

Night Prowler was originally written about sneaking in your girlfriend's bedroom window while her parents were sleeping for a romp in the sack. A Satanic psychopath serial killer named Richard Ramirez misinterpreted the lyrics and this was allegedly the tune that set his rampage off. He murdered at least 30 people and most likely more breaking into their homes while they were sleeping. He knew they were home and inside sleeping the whole time. It was not a accident for a break-in and having to kill them when he was discovered to keep from getting caught. It was his plan from the start. Malcolm and Angus Young were disgusted just like everyone else. This is the real deal people. A cool Blues/Rock tune that is forever associated and tainted with this REAL case. Or in other words a true story. Richard Ramirez - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NB5_N-D5sv0 - A bit fictionalized, but basically about Charles Whitman's shooting spree.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DL0NayV2PVg - A relative of a member of this band was apparently at Columbine.
