This is the great debate amongst the old school Devils Horn music circles .
There is substantial evidence that ...get this ...George Clinton and Parliament -Funkadelic was rockin' the Devil Horns way back in the early '70's .
Personally , I like the P-Funk mobs ...cool music indeed....
Oh yeah Coven
However, beating Simmons and Dio as rock n' roll cornuto originator is the psychedelic-occult band Coven. In 1969 Coven not only posed for the back of their album Witchcraft Destroys Minds & Reaps Souls making the "sign of the horns" (the "correct" way, not the Karana mudrā), but they included a poster of them at a Black Mass making the gesture as well. Also on the Witchcraft Destroys album: a 13 minute recording of a full-length "Satanic Mass." And so we come full circle to the Illuminologist claim of the sign of the horns gesture being a promoter of Satan (even though the mano cornuto, as well as the Karana mudrā, was supposed to repel demons instead of glorifying them).
