I definitely agree with what you said there.

Jimmy Page as well as others over the decades seem to know how to market themselves the right way so that myths can spring up about them based on hearsay and misheard stories which then gives them and their work even more attention.

Take Slayer for instance.

One guitarist is fascinated with military history and writes songs to point out what some may not know, such as the song "Angel of Death" being about Josef Mengele's atrocities or "Unit 731" on a recent album to raise awareness of the unit of the same name from the Japanese side of the war.

Another guitarist and the band's main songwriter is an atheist who writes songs about how stupid religion is, how all religions are cults.

The bass player/vocalist is a Catholic who writes about killers such as Ed Gein and others because he's interested in them and how their minds work.

For some reason people thought they were Nazi loving devil worshippers and for a time, they denied it vigorously but never exactly distanced themselves either because they knew it would generate interest in their music and didn't care if people loved or hated them as long as people knew who they were. I think they even got into trouble for releasing the song "Jihad" back in 2007 because the song was about the 9/11 attacks from the terrorist's perspective but they argued that they like to write songs about things that interest them and the whole subject needed a little balance instead of being about how great America was.

Did any of them sell their souls? Well no because one's Catholic, one's atheist and the others don't generally care one way or the other as far as religion is concerned. I think the atheist member (Kerry King) even said that since he hates all religion and Satanism is a religion then logically, he'd hate that too rather than be a part of it.
