Fearful Harmony — an error on the PlayStation 1 that occurs when a pirated or damaged (scratched) disk is inserted into the ps1.

Description
If the conditions are met, it will just be the same startup screen at first. Then the menu will pop up, and after that the menu closes and the startup screen will show the following options: BIOS errors and stop screen. Then, after a few seconds, there will be a ringingsound, which will increase until the disk is pulled out of the console. Sometimes the details of the logo will go to the front layer, then the back.

Models that may have an error
This bug is exclusive to PlayStation 1, not PS One. If you test the error on a compact version, the ringing will play as usual, but there will still be screen distortion.
