I would like to address you on the war of the dragon that is being waged against the seed of Light on earth. Today it is the sons of Satan against the sons of Christ and the sons of Sanat Kumara, the Ancient of Days. This war is being waged against our youth in the form of rock music. We must tackle this dragon head-on.
We the people of America are at the point of the initiation of our Christhood where we must descend with Archangel Michael into the astral pits of Death and Hell for the binding in the name JESUS CHRIST of the foul spirits who prey upon our children and teenagers. Therefore, Keepers of the Flame, here is my exposé on "Rock and Roll in America":
Rock music was forecast in Revelation 9 as the first woe which was to come upon the earth. I choose to preface my lecture by giving you Mother's teaching on Revelation 9 - a startling prophecy of the coming of the fallen angels with their rock music and drugs - recorded 2,000 years ago by John, the beloved disciple of Jesus.
1- And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit.
With the sounding of the fifth angel, Archangel Raphael, John sees an angel fall from heaven who is given the key to open the bottomless pit. This sounding of the tone of karma keys the cycle of a planetary reckoning of the perversions of the Fifth Ray (including mankind's misuse of the science of sound in the third eye).1
As it is recorded in Revelation 12, certain angels called Nephilim2 were cast out of heaven into the earth by Archangel Michael for their misdeeds before the throne of God and their blasphemy toward His Son. Upon taking embodiment midst the people of earth they went forth to make war against the remnant of the seed of the Divine Mother by way of carrying out their agenda of revenge against the Ancient of Days and His servant-Sons in heaven who had decreed their banishment from the heavenly courts. Their Absolute Evil carried out in the antediluvian epoch evoked upon them and their followers the LORD's judgment and the ensuing cataclysm, the Noachian Deluge, i.e., the sinking of the continent of Atlantis. Therefore, these spirits of Antichrist who perverted the sacred life-force of the Mother on Atlantis were bound by the Archangels and cast into the bottomless pit and here they have remained by edict of the Lords of Karma for approximately 11,600 years.
This judgment of the fallen angels was to afford the Children of Light and the Sons of God renewed opportunity to rise in the dominion and the mastery of the Mother flame (the ascension flame) in the seven chakras. And it was decreed that in that hour when the Lightbearers should once again have the full teaching of the Divine Mother, the Universal Christ and the Ancient of Days through Moses and the prophets, Gautama Buddha, Padma Sambhava, Confucius, Lao Tzu, Lord Jesus Christ and his apostles (as well as the instruction of the enlightened ones and the world teachers who appeared on every continent) and when they should have, by the Great Law, attained to a certain mastery on the path, these rebellious angels would be loosed out of the bottomless pit.
It was the intention of Elohim that the fallen angels should be given the opportunity to undo their evil deeds which had caused the sinking of a continent, and that if they would not repent of their deeds, the Lightbearers themselves, having the memory of their destructive misuse of sound, energy and technology, would prevent them from wreaking the same holocaust in this age.
Therefore, by 1939 at the beginning of World War II these fallen angels, bound since the days of Noah, were allowed to reincarnate and they came to their maturity in the sixties. And what they unleashed through their rock music and drugs were the momentums of the last days of Atlantis.
Many parents and teachers of the sixties failed to set an example of a path of Christhood to their sons and daughters and were themselves corrupted, although they had had 12,000 years to pursue such a path - unto this twentieth-century day of reckoning when the people of earth should be called upon to challenge once and for all the destroyers in the earth.
And therefore, when the angel fell from heaven and opened the bottomless pit, having the key to unloose both the fallen angels and their karma, all vileness erupted. As of old, they corrupted the physical plane through the rhythm and the sound of rock, and the youth followed the fallen angels - the rock stars that had long ago fallen from heaven and beguiled the sons of Jared to descend the mountain of God to the valley below.3
And the youth had no shepherds and they accepted no spiritual leader and they did not hear the voice of Mark Prophet crying in the wilderness, giving to them all that they needed to overcome Death and Hell and to get beyond what was unleashed to their destruction as a karmic retribution on the earth.
Therefore, the prophecy is given concerning the angel who was given the key:
2- And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit.
We have been told of the opening of the pits of Death and Hell under various areas of the planet, not one but numerous interconnecting focuses of the bottomless pit - like a labyrinth honeycombing the earth. The unlocking of the bottomless pit has allowed the fallen angels who had been sealed there to come out of these pits to take embodiment midst the people of earth. Hence, the darkening of consciousness through the rock rhythm and through marijuana, which is the smoke of the pit, the clouding of the mind through Cannabis sativa and cocaine, their hedonism and existentialism - and then the cloning, the programming, the penetration unto the seed of God of the genes of the Fallen One.
These rebellious angels are referred to in verse 3 as `locusts':
3- And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power.
Therefore, we have seen a plague of rock musicians and rock groups, and all of them venting the sounds of Hell sounding veritably like the sinewy whine of an oncoming swarm of locusts. Of the Seven Archangels who sound their seven trumpet judgments, five had sounded their tones prior to the opening of the bottomless pit. And the fallen ones have responded defiantly with their synthetic sounds and their strident tones from Hell. And those who align with Light align with Light, and those who align with Darkness align with Darkness.
And so there is a rallying of forces and there is a polarization and there is open warfare in the earth by the seed of Darkness against the Children of Light. And the Sons of God must come to their rescue before it is too late. But where are the defenders of youth? The plague of locusts is covering the earth with the Martian-originated agitation, apathy and atheism4 of rock music and of the fallen stars and their fans. And the resonance and the reverberation of their destructive vibration is shaking the very planet from its moorings.
4- And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.
5- And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man.
You will notice that they do not have the power to kill those whose names are not written in the Book of Life but only to torment them. From this we conclude that those whose names are written in the Book of Life - the name I AM THAT I AM written in the threefold flame of their hearts (who have the seal of God in their foreheads) - cannot be touched by rock music and drugs. Or, if they encounter and even entertain the subculture of the fallen angels for a season, they are quickly healed when they are rescued by the legions of angels of the Fifth Ray who serve with the Beloved Mother Mary.
Therefore those who came out of the pit were able to rally to themselves all of mechanization man, the plastic people created by other higher-ranking hierarchies of fallen angels who were cast out of heaven and long ago took embodiment on planet earth.
But there were some who had light yet had not been sealed in their foreheads by the name I AM THAT I AM. For they had not received the Word of the Universal Christ through the servant-Sons of Sanat Kumara and therefore their third eye was not sealed with the consciousness of God and his Law. And so neither the inner vision nor the soul were protected. And these also responded, not to the true prophets teaching the way of the opening of the chakras by the eternal AUM and the soundless sound, but to the false prophets of Hell - the false gurus of the sixties and their false sounds and prophecies (the lyrics of the rock songs) - absent the internal harmony of Alpha and Omega.
Therefore the torment of the people who came under the spell of rock music was the torment of the perversion of the five secret rays, the five circles of light which cradle the heart chakra. And the torment is evident on films of early rock concerts - of young girls screaming, fainting, going into contortions, even orgasm. This takes place because the five secret rays of the virgin light of the Mother are violated and the youth are being stripped of the energy that is necessary not only for the protection of their chakras (most especially the heart), but also for the guarding of their life and of their entering in to the secret place of the Most High - which is their birthright.
Now, Scorpio is the sign of the piercing ray of the All-Seeing Eye of God. The scorpion is the lower symbol of this sign of the zodiac, the eagle being the higher. Those who have come up out of the pit purveying their rock music and drugs carry the scorpion's sting in the third eye through the perversion of sound and of the science of the Word in music. The elixir of life and the sweet nectar of the crown chakra (as well as the life-force in the base-of-the-spine chakra) are violated through hallucinogenic drugs which stimulate by the scorpion's sting, which is the sudden release of the light of the chakras by chemical induction.
6- And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.
Out of the pit, then, comes the Death-and-Hell vibration of the fallen ones who themselves desire to die. But they do not die. They cannot die, for they have never lived ... 5
And therefore we hear the rock groups singing about death, desiring death, calling for death, calling to Satan, and yet they die not. The candle of selfhood may have been extinguished by the blasts of their blasphemy, they may be the hollowed-out ones revived each Hallowe'en as children put a candle in a pumpkin to remember "the grateful dead" - but they still have a physical existence. They desire to be no more, to cease to exist. So until the final blackout they sell their wares of death to innocent Children of Light or other empty heads like themselves.
7- And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men.
The crowns of gold can be taken to mean the technology used by the rock musicians. This, taken literally, could be a radio headset microphone or, more figuratively, all of the technological paraphernalia - from amps, keyboards, and computers to elaborate lighting and stage equipment. And though they are devils they have the faces of men. For when they were cast down into the earth, they were cast in the mold of Homo sapiens. And this is the mask we have to tear off of them.6
8- And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions.
The fallen Atlanteans at the time of the sinking of the continent also had long hair and when they reincarnated they once again took up the custom of their long hair (for they had had no forward evolution in embodiment between then and now). Their hair is the sign of their rebellion against Christ. Long hair in the divine sense is a symbol - almost a badge - of attainment.
We see this in the story of Samson. When he lost his hair, he lost his power. Thus, the long-haired rockers, in keeping with their tradition of taking heaven by force,7 seek to elevate themselves to heights of mastery they have not attained to through service to Life. Only a man having the attainment of Christhood as Jesus did may wear long hair as a woman. And their lions' teeth signify their devouring of the light of their followers and their perversion of the throat chakra.
9- And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle.
Having never seen a rock star or his equipment, John the Revelator describes their guitars, drums and synthesizers as breastplates. He perceives that these fallen angels are misusing the power of their wings (their Gemini instruments) - that are of the air element and the sacred fire breath they once had from the Holy Spirit - in order to create a horrendous sound, electronically amplified, of "chariots of many horses running to battle."
If you were seeing this prophecy of twentieth-century Armageddon and hearing its sounds - seated in a cave on the isle of Patmos where John at the age of 94 wrote the Lord's revelation - how would you convey the awesomeness of this modern-day scene of Hell's angels?
10- And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails:
And their tail is the misuse of the sacred fire of the Mother, the base chakra. And therefore they sting by the misuse of the sexual energy or by needles pumping drugs into their veins. The sting of the sexual energy when perverted through the black arts is death.
10- and their power was to hurt men five months.
And that five months - as cycles of putting on one's Christhood through the Sacred Heart of Jesus - goes on and on and on until there is the conclusion of each individual's initiation in the five secret rays. And if one does not ultimately pass the initiation, his heart chakra is stripped (by his own self-abuse) of the five circles of light of Elohim, of Alpha and Omega.
The number 5 also relates to precipitation by the Elohim of the Fifth Ray whereby sound results in creation in the physical plane - "In the beginning was the Word ... and without the Word was not any thing made that was made. ..."8 The fallen angels are using the sound of the Word not as co-creators with God but as destroyers of the bodies, minds and souls of His own.
The power that is given to them to hurt mechanization man for five months is to turn and rend the people who are the godless (for they do not have the seal of God in their foreheads), that is, to turn upon them their own karma. In addition the fallen rock stars are given the power of the electrical energy without which they could not produce the sound.
It's tens of thousands of watts that are at the command of these `musicians' who are really nothing but hellions out of the pit! This is a multiplication factor of 20 million, if you consider a pressure of one ounce on a guitar string moving it 1/4 inch, as compared to 35,000 watts, a typical concert power level.9 Such an increase of power, or gain factor, is so large that it would make a bulldozer operator feel weak by comparison. Without this there would be no rock music, with the exception of the jazz and tribal African music from which it originated.
So rock music and the drugs that came with the fallen Atlanteans who have come up out of the pit are the first of the three woes10 which come upon the inhabitants of earth by reason of the trumpet judgments.
And this concludes my introduction based on Mother's teachings. Now I would like to expose these fallen angels so you can know them by their present-day fruits. Because they really are a woe upon the earth. They are not only a part of Death and Hell but they are a direct part of the International Capitalist/Communist Conspiracy. Without rock, Communism could have made no inroads into America. And without Capitalism neither rock nor Communism would have had the technological backing to fly.
Whereas the Sons of God and their path of individual initiative are "from above," as Jesus said, rock and Communism are both "from beneath"11 out of the bottomless pit, hence they have the same vibration, hence they are mutually reinforcing. They are members of the same team. This startling conclusion will be borne out as my exposé unfolds.
The coming of the forerunners of rock music, then, in the late fifties (pegged astrologically by Mother as December 31, 1959), was simultaneous with the coming of age of the reincarnated fallen Atlanteans. When you think about a generation of the seed of the Wicked One being confined on the lower astral plane in what is known as "the compound" and not being allowed to see the light of day for nearly 12,000 years - so evil was every imagination of the thoughts of their heart continually before GOD (Elohim) (see Genesis 6) - you can understand the pent-up anger they are unleashing against the seed of Christ and the revenge they would take against God and society.
And these are the very ones whose misuse of the science of sound, as well as of crystal12 caused the sinking of Atlantis, the very ones who have reembodied to destroy civilization. They have not come to change their ways, to bend the knee, or to confess the living Christ; instead of taking the opportunity to make good they have determined to continue their proliferation of evil and to bring this civilization to its knees.
Many think that young people with their rock bands are just going through their phase - lots of people have had bands and then they go on to other professions. It's kind of an accepted thing in this country that having a band or a rock band is just something you do at a certain age and then you move on.
Youth is not looked upon as being evil; on the contrary, parents of these rock stars are proud of their sons - they're successful, they're popular, they get on TV. "How can they be evil, they're such nice young men and women?" (though there are much fewer women in rock). This logic is a lie because these `musicians' are reembodied Atlanteans who destroyed their civilization the last time around; they've sworn enmity with God and they're likely to do it again, if we don't take a stand.
Tonight we'll be tackling three aspects of rock music. I know some have said that from a higher viewpoint it's not important to make distinctions between the types of rock. But I feel it's vitally important because rock is like a many-headed Hydra or like the dragon in Revelation 12 and we must identify each subgenre. By identifying it, we decapitate it and cauterize the stump so the Hydra cannot grow two heads in its place!13
Most importantly, this is war, and, as Sun Tzu said in The Art of War, "Know the enemy and know yourself."
So, first we have heavy metal. Heavy metal today bears little or no resemblance to its ancestors in the sixties and seventies - groups such as Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Uriah Heep, Black Sabbath, Blue Oyster Cult and others. It's a completely new form which has taken root since the early eighties and it's experiencing a great surge in popularity. Heavy metal is concerned with suicide, Satanism, a fixation with morbidity and death, and an obsession with nuclear war. You'll find all these things in almost every heavy metal piece. They're an integral part of it. There's no separating them. And I'll present my case as we continue.
Then there's political rock, which I feel is an important part of the conspiracy. Political rock is nothing new. It started in the early sixties. What hasn't changed about it is that it's anti-American, it promotes a one-world government, it's a satire and a mockery of the American way of life, and it's a transference of the responsibility for war and poverty in the world to America, away from the real source of the problem - the Soviet Union. One thing is certain, you won't find any political rock that is anti-Soviet.
So, on the political rock we'll cover several artists and I'll document each of the statements that I've just made.
The third aspect of rock that I'll be taking up is the techno-rock. Techno-rock is used for want of a better term because almost all rock today is produced electronically in a very sophisticated way. The `tools of the trade' have grown in sophistication in the last ten years - especially in the last five. It's a whole new ball game, and I'll be demonstrating some modern studio equipment later tonight.
The fallen ones are using technology which has been given to us by Saint Germain to control sound. Sound is the force of creation; and what you hear, the sound you generate, that is what you're creating. The whole rock revolution that's happened has been through the evolution of digital computers and particularly digital audio, which I'll also explain later.
The digital manipulation of sound gives incredible power to the negative lyrics which these bands are prone to write, which in turn provides a fascination for many youth who love technology and are drawn to the almost irresistible sounds that come from the studio today. They're so unique. I am sure most of you are somewhat familiar with the types of sounds I'm talking about.
Now, with this techno-rock there have also been albums which are designed more as an "experience" than just as a record. You know, you buy this album and it takes you somewhere. That's not really new - the Beatles did that too. But it's more intense now and it's almost a sexual experience or a narcotic high - that's the type of high that you might get from some of these albums. And the lyrics are all blatantly sexual with most techno-rock.
There are several types of heavy metal, as described by a 17-year-old metal musician:
There is hard core, which is a general term, and metal, another general term, and then we have all those stupid subtitles - death metal, black metal, speed metal (which is also thrash) and Christian metal which is not popular. There is metal core, which is pretty much what we are, the stuff that crossed over. Metal core is what metal people consider metal and what hard core consider hard core.
Black metal is the Satan stuff, silly Devil music. Death metal is pretty close to black metal but more doomy and less satanistic, the darkness-evil side, but not necessarily the Devil himself. Hard core is punk ... There's a fine line between hard core and metal. A lot of bands cross over. A lot of people do too.14
As we will see, most producers and consumers of heavy metal music are very young. People can't usually stand it past their twenties. They have a saying which you'll see on one of these videoclips, "If it's too loud, you're too old."
Dave Benser, the author of the above quote, began listening to the group KISS in first grade. KISS has been rumored to stand for Knights in the Service of Satan. I don't know whether there is any truth to that but it seems highly plausible.
I'm going to play a segment from ABC's 20/20 on heavy metal that aired in May. I think it's the best way to introduce the subject because their coverage is pretty thorough. Although I don't agree with most of the things they say, at least you'll get a chance to see some of these people in action and some of the bands. So we'll play that now. [ABC 20/20 videoclip "The Children of Heavy Metal" played]
Barbara Walters: When a form of music that our children like becomes linked with ghoulish images and violent theatrics, and even suicide, it demands our attention. Perhaps more to the point, the children need our attention. Hundreds of thousands of teenagers are locked onto so-called heavy metal music. Are they despairing? What are their common bonds? And, as Stone Phillips asks, is there a message that may be too loud for us to hear?
Dad [videoclip, to son watching heavy metal group on TV]: What is this garbage you're watching? I want to watch the news.
John Marler, Eyewitness News: Good evening. It was rock and roll turned ugly -
Stone Phillips [voice-over]: A rock riot in New Jersey tops the local news.
Marler: There were nearly three dozen arrests and a state trooper was injured.
Phillips [voice-over]: A post-concert fight captures the headlines. A parking lot disturbance at one arena leads police to mobilize an army at the group's next stop. At issue, the impact of this loud, raucous music, heavy metal music, played here by the supergroup Iron Maiden. Screeching guitars, flamboyant bands, lyrics obsessed with sex, Satanism and even suicide - this is not mainstream rock and roll, it's the music of today's teen rebellion. What's it about?
Mike Zakarian, Age 15: Togetherness, man, we got to stick together and fight, man.
Zakarian: Fight for our right, man, to listen to our music and party, man.
Phillips [voice-over]: As metalmania grows, so does the heavy metal debate.
Michael Konsevick, Teacher, Teaneck High: I think it's time, as Frank Zappa was saying, if your kid comes home with an album with a guy with a chainsaw between his legs, you better find out what that music is talking about.
Phillips [voice-over]: Critics say there's something seriously wrong with metal music, outrageous by design, that it may have contributed to a number of teenage suicides, like the ones in Bergenfield, New Jersey, March 11th. Four young people died in a suicide pact. A heavy metal cassette box was found at the scene. Later that same week, reporters were at the scene of another suicide case in Illinois.
Chris Bury [Alsip, Illinois]: In this case, music may also be involved. Her family says Nancy Grannan was obsessed by lyrics from the rock band Metallica, lyrics she wrote down.
Jim Davis, Brother: I have lost the will to live, simply nothing more to give, I will just say good-bye.
Phillips [voice-over]: This videotape by a Christian group criticizes a song by Ozzy Osbourne, linked to a 1984 teen suicide in California.
Announcer [videoclip]: Consider now for yourself the words to "Suicide Solution."
Ozzy Osbourne [words on screen]: Breaking laws, knocking doors but there's no one at home. Made your bed, rest your head, but you lie there and moan. Where to hide, suicide is the only way out. Don't you know what it's really about?
Phillips [voice-over]: The music has prompted pickets, record-burnings, even congressional hearings, where a call for record companies to print lyrics on album covers as a guide for concerned parents sparked a debate over censorship. Tipper Gore, co-founder of the Parents Music Resource Center.
Tipper Gore, Parents Music Resource Center: Parents should realize that we have explicit and graphic sex, extreme violence, suicide in lyrics that is going to children that are sometimes not even teenagers yet, and young teenagers.
Bruce Dickinson, Lead Singer, Iron Maiden: I mean, that's what annoys the hell out of me, that people are saying that we're a negative influence. I just wish people would get a sense of proportion about what's right and wrong, and who are the real people that are poisoning people's minds, and why are they doing it. We say things to people that mean something, I mean, you know, in our own little way, that kids can relate to.
Phillips [voice-over]: What are these heavy metal rockers saying to kids? And why are millions of teenage Americans listening? To find out, we went backstage at this heavy metal concert to meet Iron Maiden, and we went back to school to meet the kids who go to heavy metal concerts, who belong to the heavy metal crowd. Kids like these, with hormones popping, macho energy surging, kids who will be our guides into a world most adults are strangers to.
[on-camera] This is a high school in Teaneck, New Jersey, a school with a reputation for excellence. But like just about every other high school in America, Teaneck High has its own group of so-called tough kids, hoods or burn-outs - some into drinking or drugs, others who aren't into much of anything at all, except heavy metal music. [voice-over] It's against the rules to play music in the halls at Teaneck High, so it's hard to tell here just who belongs to the heavy metal crowd and who doesn't. But after school, Teaneck's heavy metal contingent is hard to miss. Meet Allen, Mike, Naseem and Melissa, four devoted heavy metal fans.
[interview] This is it, this is the hot stuff. Allen, turn it off for a second, so we can talk. Who is this?
Phillips [voice-over]: S.O.D.?
Chaloub: Storm Troopers of Death.
Phillips: Storm Troopers of Death, now, what does that mean - Storm Troopers of Death?
Zakarian: It calms me down. Like, you know, if anything's on my mind, I just go and sit in my room and play some music, and just sit down and think.
Phillips: And you can sort of drown out the world that way.
Zakarian: Yeah, you know, it calms me down.
Phillips [voice-over]: For the most part, these kids are not star athletes or straight-A students. Most don't belong to any high school clubs or hang out with the popular crowd. Often, they feel like outcasts, like they don't fit in, especially in the classroom.
Teacher [videoclip]: What do you want to do with your life?
Student [singing]: I wanta rock.
Group of Students [singing]: I wanta rock.
Jason Kalfin, Age 14: It's like, you know, some people don't want to go to college. They want to do something else. I mean, once you get out of high school, you figure that you've been in school long enough, you don't want to, you know, spend any more time.
Phillips [voice-over]: They spend their afternoons at the record store, flipping through albums, talking metal music with their friends. The music is what brings them together. It's their way of belonging, their rooms a retreat from school and from cliques they can't relate to.
Michael Chaloub, Age 17: They got preps in there, they got the nerds, and they got, you know, guys like us. The preps, they're the ones who always wear like they're in friggin' Hawaii or something, they wear those ten thousand, like, multi-color shirts. And, you know, like those idiots over there, they go and play frisbee in the middle of a field.
Phillips [voice-over]: Sheigh Crabtree might be considered a prep. She used to go to Teaneck High and always believed the put-downs from the heavy metal crowd were just a cover.
Sheigh Crabtree, Former Teaneck Student: Instead of people just ignoring them, saying they're heavy metal kids, they need some support, they need some people to inspire them, some people to look up to. I think being a teenager is a really lonely time. You don't know who to trust. Maybe when you grow up, it's the same thing, but right now, I mean, I've never felt lonelier. And I think a lot of teenagers feel that way.
Phillips [voice-over]: Lonely, she says, and worried, like a lot of teenagers, about things like nuclear annihilation. This song, by the group Megadeth, is about nuclear war. [rock music played]
Kalfin: Like, you talk about the future and everything, and like, there might not ever be a future, `cause they're still makin' all these weapons and everything, and I think about peace a lot.
Phillips [voice-over]: But make no mistake. This is not the summer of love. Folk music is not their thing.
Mrs. Gore: There is a group called Motley Crue that's very popular with kids. They have an album that has sold two million copies with lyrics like this, "Not a woman but a whore. I can taste the hate. Well, now, I'm killing you, watch your face turning blue."
Phillips [voice-over]: We asked the kids about that. They say parents pay more attention to the lyrics than they do.
[interview] Those kind of songs - you don't think it says the wrong kind of thing?
Melissa Gill, Age 16: Yeah, it does. You shouldn't say, like, you know, bad things about what women do, you know. It's just like putting them down.
Naseem Buddha, Age 16: It's like, not all songs talk about that, though. So you just avoid the music that you don't like, that's all.
Phillips [voice-over]: And it's the same with songs about Satanism and suicide. The kids in Teaneck said they were shocked by the suicides in Bergenfield, the town next door. But they still think it's wrong to blame the music.
Michael Chaloub: Why didn't we kill ourselves yet? - because we listen to the same thing. And if the music caused them to kill themselves, well, why didn't we?
Allen Chaloub: That song, "Kill Yourself," you know, I mean, it's just a song. You're not going to go out and do it, I mean, unless you got real bad problems and everything, you know.
Kalfin: It's, like, not the music that's going to kill you, it's yourself.
Phillips [voice-over]: Music journalist Charles Young has written about the heavy metal culture and believes it may be healthy in a way.
Charles M. Young, Music Journalist: Heavy metal speaks to the anger and despair of teenagers today the same way that the blues used to speak to the despair and anger of black people in the South. But without heavy metal there would probably be a lot more suicides, because metal and certain other forms of rock give teenagers something to believe in that they get no place else.
Phillips [voice-over]: Basically, Teaneck's metal fans feel adults just overreact to the music, don't understand it or give it a chance. Like the teenager in this music video, they feel themselves constantly colliding with the adult world.
Harvey Kalfin, Jason's Father: If it's too loud, you're too old.
Phillips [voice-over]: Take Jay's father, for example. He never shared his son's devotion to the music, never quite understood as Jay transformed himself into a heavy metal aficionado, at age five.
Harvey Kalfin: I kept telling myself that I had to appreciate his music, and I would listen to it and it lasted about 30 seconds, and then I'd yell, "Turn it down!" But seriously, I have no objection to what music he likes to listen to, and if -
Jason Kalfin: Would I turn it down? No. I'd turn it up, louder.
Sylvia Chaloub, Allen's mother: I don't know what heavy metal is really like. Could it be worse than -
Allen Chaloub: Can I give an example?
Chaloub: Can I give an example?
Phillips [voice-over]: Allen's mom tolerates the heavy metal culture, or tries to.
Mrs. Chaloub: If it's like the music that you listen to -
Phillips [voice-over]: And the music is mild compared to this. [music played] This is called moshing, a dance popular among the metal crowd. At times, it looks more like a contact sport. And what about this, stage-diving, a common occurrence at heavy metal concerts all over the country? Jay broke his wrist stage-diving a few months ago, but his fellow fans insist they look out for one another.
Fan: You don't want to get hurt. Everybody's got a little kind of brotherhood. No one wants to get hurt. Everybody keeps their arms down. It looks - I have to admit, when I first saw it, you know, I got scared, but it's not - I'm all sweaty, but it's fun.
Phillips [voice-over]: Still, some counseling groups say heavy metal is out of control and advocate a tough stance, with rules to de-metal kids, impose a dress code, tear down posters, and turn off the stereos.
Zakarian: If you come home late, they start bitchin' at you and everything, you know, clean your room or take the dog out or somethin' like that, you know. You can't go up to them and, you know, tell them to go to hell, so you keep all your anger in and stuff.
Tony Kingslow, Age 15: My parents are threat - I said, "Dad, can I get an earring?" He's like, "I'll kill you, I'll rip out your ears." It's like, he said, "I'll kick you out of the house and get your name changed to spaghetti" - and then I say, "What's so wrong about having an earring? There's nothing wrong with that. It doesn't mean anything, anything bad about it." [crosstalk]
He thinks, "He's a girl, he's a girl. Only girls wear that." Who says?
Phillips [voice-over]: Tipper Gore has written a book for parents in the eighties. We asked her where she thinks parents should draw the line.
Mrs. Gore: I advocate a system where people can make up their own minds according to their own values and their own assessment of where their child is on a developmental spectrum.
Phillips [voice-over]: And if your fourteen-year-old daughter wants to listen to this, will you let her?
Mrs. Gore: To heavy metal music? I'm not sure. It would depend on what group.
Phillips [voice-over]: [group cheering] The Iron Maiden group, one of the best-known among more than 1500 heavy metal bands, is a worldwide phenomenon. They've even taken their act behind the Iron Curtain, where their fans look and act the same. Rock promoter John Scher.
John Scher, Rock Promoter: What happens at concerts now is vastly different than the scene that surrounded concerts in the sixties and seventies. It's become an almost tribal [emphasis added] kind of a gathering place. It has a lot more to do with socialization than it does just the music.
Phillips [voice-over]: When Maiden played this year at the Meadowlands in New Jersey, we went with our group from Teaneck.
Young: When you're a part of a crowd, you're incredibly powerful. And there's no drug, there's nothing that can approach that feeling of exhilaration.
Phillips [voice-over]: When the concert was over, we took them backstage. They got autographs from some of the band members. And we got to talk to one of their idols, Maiden's Bruce Dickinson. We asked him what he says when critics accuse heavy metal of inciting outrageous, even sick behavior.
Dickinson: You mean like selling arms to Iran, or you mean like, you know, all these guys doing insider dealing, or you mean like all these companies dumping toxic wastes everywhere, you know? But because they wear suits and ties, it's okay. They're not sick. Where else can these kids go, where they - you know, they come somewhere, and they all feel a sense of, you know, this is our thing, you know.
Phillips [voice over]: Dickinson acknowledges though that heavy metal kids may be telling us something, about how they feel pushed out and put down, about their needs, and about how they're coping with the pressures teenagers face today, from family breakups to drugs.
Dickinson: And maybe if you listen, you might understand a little of what he's trying to go through, and then you might understand why he likes things, why he doesn't like things, and ultimately, you find out that he's a good kid after all.
Walters: You know, Stone, this is hostile music, and these are kids who seem to feel that the world out there is hostile to them. So much of it is a matter of self-esteem. But the music itself isn't what does them harm.
Phillips: No, even the critics that we talk to, among them, none says that the music alone is going to cause a child to commit suicide, for instance. I think the point is, talking to these teenagers who are into heavy metal music, that they're not necessarily looking for a heavy discussion with parents or teachers about the meaning of their music. But the point is, tune in and let it be known that whether you like the music or not, it matters, because the kids matter.
Walters: Oh dear. God, it's a tough time, and it's always a tough period for kids.
If you ask me, that's nothing but a whitewash. What this segment is designed to do is to put a human face on heavy metal in order to demystify it and make it palatable. By acting like the teenagers have chosen the music, the responsibility for its violence is transferred to the children themselves. It is never acknowledged that possibly the heavy-metal musicians have created their own market by taking unfair advantage of the vulnerability and natural rebellion of teenagers. Nor is the question even raised that the group members themselves might be tools of evil forces. It is denied that the music can have a negative influence and this Charles M. Young is sorely misguided if he thinks that heavy metal is something teens can or should "believe in."
The youth have been victimized and they don't know it. The battle is not about censorship or "saving children from themselves." It is about saving them from the likes of Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden, who lines his pockets with filthy lucre derived from the death of souls while pointing his finger at other elements of society.
Just because kids can relate to heavy metal and enjoy it doesn't make it a good thing. We do not allow heroin addicts to remain addicted just because it is their free will. Neither do we blame them for their continued craving for the drug. They have a "monkey on their back," and we should take a stand for them and against the monkey. The addict will hate us in the moment but thank us profusely upon regaining his senses.
Rock musicians will accept no responsibility for feeding America's metal habit. Instead, they are always putting down others. As you saw with Bruce Dickinson, he's doing nothing but transferring our attention, saying, "Over here. Don't look at me, look at them. Look at the government, look at the corporations."
This transference is the key to understanding the rock music plot because a lot of the political groups do the same thing when it comes to making the people blame America and blame our way of life for all the world's ills. It's a transference from the real source of the problem. And they're great at it.
These rock musicians are spokesmen for the seed of the Wicked One and they use their music and their beat to transfer the guilt for all the crimes of the fallen angels to the Lightbearers. This weight of guilt adds to the burden of the youth who are already bowed down with drugs and feel alienated from society. I won't deny that being a teenager is tough. But this just compounds the problem.
Heavy metal attracts the loners, as we saw in the clip. These are already the ones most likely to commit suicide. We heard mention of the girl who had the lyrics to a song with her when she killed herself. The group involved was called Metallica.
When I was going out to do the research for this lecture I went to a record store in Evanston near Northwestern. And when I first walked in, I said, "Hi. I'm doing research into suicide and Satanism." And the manager got real upset and he said, "There's nothing like that here. What are you talking about?" He didn't like me at all.
So I got into a conversation with a girl who worked there who was nineteen. And it turned out that this group was her favorite group. We got to talking about the suicide of Nancy Grannan and, of course, she didn't believe that that song had caused her to commit suicide. As a matter of fact she said, "It couldn't have. It's my favorite song."
So I asked her what she thought of heavy metal in general - and didn't she think that it was a possibility that music could at least have an influence on someone - maybe not a negative influence, but at least that it had the power to influence people. Well, she didn't really know. But then it came out later in the conversation that, well, she wouldn't really want her ten-year-old sister to listen to it. But it was OK for her.
We kept discussing it. She said she didn't think the words really meant anything, but that they were just an expression of emotion - that people were acting and the lyrics didn't really mean anything. And then she switched. She couldn't really defend that. So she said that the top 40 was as bad as heavy metal and that lots of kids listen to that and parents didn't care.
She cited the example of Madonna, claiming that Madonna had posed in the nude before she became a singer. I said, "Well, I don't think anybody should be listening to Madonna either." So she thought about it. And I think that she listened to what I had to say but she definitely wasn't converted by any means.
At one point she said she knew some members of a rock and roll band and she was trying to explain to me how they were just posing to look nasty but that they were really nice people. At this point the store owner came over and remarked that he expected that "a Northwestern student would be smarter."
So I'm going to play you the song which I believe caused Nancy Grannan to commit suicide. But first, I'd like to introduce you to some of the other music that this group has put out. This is a song about nuclear war - a familiar topic. I'm going to read the lyrics:
Do unto others as they have done to you
But what the hell is this world coming to?
Blow the universe into nothingness
Nuclear warfare shall lay us to rest
Fight fire with fire
Ending is near
Fight fire with fire
Bursting with fear
Time is like a fuse, short and burning fast
Armageddon is here, like said in the past
Soon to fill our lungs the hot winds of death
The gods are laughing, so take your last breath
So we'll play that now. [Excerpt of "Fight Fire with Fire" by Metallica played] So it goes on. That's about a third of it.
Now, this Metallica would fall into the category of "death metal." They're not overtly satanistic. Take a good look at this album cover. What do you think the object in the center is? It's an electric chair. So you have this group who is actively singing about death and they talk about suicide in their song, yet they have a song which is against the death penalty. You figure that out.
We have them criticizing the death penalty, which is the only way that a civilized society can deter murder, and yet they advocate suicide. In other words, they're saying to God: "You can't tell me by your law (the law of karma) when it's time for me to go, but I can take my own life (which is really God's life) anytime I choose. I'm better than you, God, and no one can tell me otherwise."
These are the lyrics to their song against the death penalty. It's called "Ride the Lightning."
Guilty as charged
But damn it, it ain't right
There is someone else controlling me
Death in the air
Strapped in the electric chair
This can't be happening to me
Who made you God to say
"I'll take your life from you!!"
Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flame
Wait for the sign
To flick the switch of death
It's the beginning of the end
Sweat, chilling cold
As I watch death unfold
Consciousness is my only friend
My fingers grip with fear
What am I doing here?
Someone help me
Oh please God help me
They are trying to take it all away
I don't want to die
Time moving slow
The minutes seem like hours
The final curtain call I see
How true is this?
Just get it over with
If this is true, just let it be
We'll play an excerpt from that now. [Excerpt of "Ride the Lightning" by Metallica played] This is supposed to evoke sympathy for this individual who is being killed, but I don't think they have too much sympathy for the girl who killed herself.
We're told that Nancy Grannan, nineteen, of Alsip, Illinois, had listened to "Fade to Black" and that she carried the lyrics with her - copied in her own hand - and had them on the dashboard of the car while she allowed herself to be poisoned by carbon monoxide. Days before the suicide she read them to her sister-in-law, remarking, "This sounds like my life."
Grannan was trapped. She did have problems. She was going through a divorce and she had some other personal problems. But it wasn't the end of her life. She could have been helped by a good counsellor or even by the violet flame. I'm sure there is someone she could have talked to. But instead, she turned to heavy metal.
It's interesting to note when you hear this song that it starts out kind of nice, you know, with the acoustic guitar - sounds kind of sweet. And this is what they do. The fallen ones always allure you with something that looks very good and very nice. And then when you've been caught, they show you what it's really like.
I think that this song is a prime example of that. I'm going to play the whole song - it's about six minutes long - because I want everyone to understand what this girl was up against and what all teenagers are up against when they feel the despair that my mother talked about in her commencement address on Sunday. It's just that - they have nowhere else to turn.
They feel alienated from their parents and they just turn to this music - almost for mother love. It becomes a surrogate mother, a pacifier and a security blanket - a shield from the real world, yet the repository of everything they fear most. And then the rhythm of rock - gentle and violent - neutralizes their fears of those things which they really ought to fear and then come to grips with in a mature way: sex, death, dying, suicide, and nuclear war. These musicians are the heroes of our children - like in Dungeons and Dragons, they lead them through the labyrinth of the underworld - but they don't bring them back. So here are the "Fade to Black" lyrics:
Life it seems, will fade away
Drifting further every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free
Things not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly lost, this can't be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filling me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me, but now he's gone
No one but me can save myself, but it's too late
Now I can't think, think why I should even try
Yesterday seems as though it never existed
Death Greets me warm, now I will just say goodbye
This stream of consciousness is nothing but a dictation from the suicide entity, Annihla. This is channeling right out of Hell. With their syncopated beat and the electronic sound that becomes a "psychotronic" manipulation, they are the open door to the mouthings of demons out of the pit.
Notice the passage "I was me, but now he's gone." How often do you hear people going from the first to the third person in the same sentence? By this statement, the vocalist (and anyone who sings along) merges with the suicide entity and loses his own identity. "I was me, but now he's gone" - who's he? The disassociated self. The person is saying, "I used to be me, but the me that I was - now he's gone." But it's the suicide entity that has now displaced the I that used to be the self; and the entity says now he's gone and only I am here occupying this body.
I believe it's important for us to place ourselves in the position to hear what these teenagers are going through. So we'll play it now. ["Fade to Black" by Metallica played] If we didn't have the Ascended Masters and their teachings, we'd feel like giving up after hearing that song. And that's just how she felt and that's just what she did - Nancy Grannan, bless her soul.
What really struck me about this recording is that at the end of it you hear a kind of scream going off into the distance. It sounds to me like the soul screaming after it's left the body and realized it's been tricked into committing suicide and what a trap it is.
Now, as bad as it is, it's not the actual suicide that is the core problem of this heavy metal and of rock music. Suicide is only the end result of a chain of abominations. It begins with the rape of the chakras by the rhythm and the sound. It becomes an addiction, and the false hierarchy of Satan is involved in this at all levels. And by the time suicide becomes the solution because it's the only way to get out of the grips of these toilers, the soul has been devoured many times over.
There is a parallel here to the account of Jesus casting out devils in the country of the Gadarenes. The devils spoke to Jesus through the ones possessed and said, "Well, if you're going to cast us out, at least let us go into the herd of pigs." The Master consented and no sooner did they go into the pigs than the whole herd, as it is written in Matthew 8, "ran violently down a steep place into the sea and perished in the waters."
The swine - a very intelligent animal - committed suicide. It was their only way out. They preferred death to demon possession. And they did not have the power to deliver themselves from the forces of Hell. Neither did the Gadarene demoniacs. And neither did Nancy Grannan. And neither do our teenagers today.
I stand before Almighty God and in the name JESUS CHRIST I charge you, Metallica: James Hetfield, Kirk Hammett, Cliff Burton, and Lars Ulrich with the murder of this soul, Nancy Grannan, and for putting a stumbling block in the path of this sister who was a Holy Christ Child and had the opportunity, as we all do, to make her ascension in this life. Her blood be upon you and all of your ill-gotten gains!
Let us take our stand now and give The Judgment Call "They Shall Not Pass!" by Jesus Christ. Together:
In the Name of the I AM THAT I AM,
I invoke the Electronic Presence of Jesus Christ:
They shall not pass!
They shall not pass!
They shall not pass!
By the authority of the cosmic cross of white fire
it shall be:
That all that is directed against the Christ
within me, within the holy innocents,
within our beloved Messengers,
within every son and daughter of God ...
Is now turned back
by the authority of Alpha and Omega,
by the authority of my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ,
by the authority of Saint Germain!
I AM THAT I AM within the center of this temple
and I declare in the fullness of
the entire Spirit of the Great White Brotherhood:
That those who, then, practice the black arts
against the children of the Light ...
Are now bound by the hosts of the LORD,
Do now receive the judgment of the Lord Christ
within me, within Jesus,
and within every Ascended Master,
Do now receive, then, the full return -
multiplied by the energy of the Cosmic Christ -
of their nefarious deeds which they have practiced
since the very incarnation of the Word!
Lo, I AM a Son of God!
Lo, I AM a Flame of God!
Lo, I stand upon the Rock of the living Word
And I declare with Jesus, the living Son of God:
They shall not pass!
They shall not pass!
They shall not pass!
Elohim. Elohim. Elohim. [chant]
Let us call to Archangel Michael to protect the souls of all teens who have committed suicide and to bind all demons of Death and Hell who have lured them to that fate. Together:
*Lord Michael before, Lord Michael behind,
Lord Michael to the right, Lord Michael to the left,
Lord Michael above, Lord Michael below,
Lord Michael, Lord Michael wherever I go!
I AM his Love protecting here!
I AM his Love protecting here!
I AM his Love protecting here!* (9x)
*I AM Presence, Thou art Master,
I AM Presence, clear the way!
Let thy Light and all thy Power
Take possession here this hour!
Charge with Victory's mastery,
Blaze blue lightning, blaze thy substance!
Into this thy form descend,
That Perfection and its Glory
Shall blaze forth and earth transcend!* (9x)
Thank you and thank God for that release of Light! (Please be seated.) There is a protective membrane around the etheric body. Mother has described it as being "white and bluish, having light veins through- out - veins of light." Gradually, from repetitive listening to rock, the membrane is weakened from being bombarded by violent sound. So, it wears thin until finally it bursts, and then you start having more tears.
The purpose of this protective sheath is to prevent the astral plane (Death and Hell) from penetrating the four lower bodies and violating the soul. The real purpose of rock music, then, from the satanic point of view is to tear this protective sheath, thereby making the soul vulnerable to anything else the sinister force may desire to do with her until they've bled her of all her light: her own self-destruction becomes their method of discarding their victim.
Now I'd like to show you the pictures of a few young people that are into heavy metal and tell you their story. These are taken from a June 4, 1987, article in the Washington Post. This is Stacy Allen. She's twenty and she says that she doesn't even do drugs because a heavy metal concert is a better high:
"It's better than drugs and alcohol and I don't have a hangover in the morning. ... Some bands are so good they'll just tear you apart. I'm not saying every band is good enough to do this. But my favorites, they can obliterate me. I feel like there's nothing left anywhere after I've been there. It's like, am I there or am I in Ohio? It's awesome. Anything that can blow you from D.C. to Ohio is pretty powerful."
This is an increment of self-destruction every time it happens to her. And the rush of the life-force going out of her which will never return is "sweet death." And she can't help herself, she can't stop herself anymore than a heroin addict can stop because she's addicted to that sensation. It's the bleeding of the chakras of their light. It is almost as if the chakras, which are normally convex and full of light, were to become deflated like a balloon. They literally get depressed. This loss of light is the spiritual cause of depression, which, as we know, has become recognized as a national disease - as highlighted in a recent cover story of Newsweek.15
When the life-force has been spent, whether through rock or perverted sex or drugs, two feelings emerge: depression and then the desire for more stimuli to counteract the depression. Who benefits from this vicious cycle? The depression entity, whose name as revealed to Mother is "Depressa," a female vampire entity. She and Annihla, the suicide entity, are a team - they work together.
The demons and discarnates out of Death and Hell all benefit from rock and roll. Because foul spirits can survive only by constantly raping the Light from the chakras of the Lightbearers. That's their only source. Without it they would be no more.
So they get one, a few or ten million listening to rock music and they have easy access to all the light they want. They live off of it, they get drunk on it - and drunk with power - and they use that power of the Children of Light to carry out the agenda of Hell: controlled social and political change by the architects of world destruction who, as the archdeceivers of mankind, use the rock stars as pawns in the game. Thus some rock musicians are duped (themselves victims of the sinister force) but others are conscious willing tools of the powers of Hell.
And that explains the rock/Satanism connection. This connection consists of groups like Slayer and Venom who are disciples of Satanism. They don't deny it. They readily admit it and it's in their lyrics.
This is the Satanic Bible. On the cover is the inverted pentagram with the Goat of Mendes superimposed. Now, the inverted pentagram is a familiar symbol if you're into heavy metal. Some kids who are into it may not know that it's on the cover of the Satanic Bible, but there it is in its entirety. And here we have the man responsible for it all - or the pawn of the man responsible for it all. This is Anton LaVey, the head of the Satanist church. He has claimed credit for the rise of "black metal" or "Satanist metal."
As quoted in the Washington Post, February 23, 1986, he says, "The Satanist rock lyrics, the Satanic movies, even the Satanic murders, ... all grew from the Church of Satan. Let's give me a little credit for having moved society - up or down - but for at least having moved it."16
It is interesting that LaVey claims not to like rock music. This is a bit like Pravda claiming that the Soviet Union doesn't like taking political prisoners. When you consider the background of LaVey as the reincarnation of V. I. Lenin, it starts to sound like old, familiar rhetoric.
LaVey himself is involved in music. You may not know this, but according to his own story he sits there `most every night and plays his organ or banks of synthesizers - very late, in the early morning hours from 2:00 to 4:00 a.m. That's when Stalin held court and received his diplomatic envoys from the West. He would only see them at those hours.
And it's not just Stalin, it's the modern Soviet Union also. This is when the ELF17 waves that the Soviet Union constantly beams at the United States are most effective. So you start to wonder, when all these things are happening, and you put two and two together. Well, the source is the same. We also know that beloved Kuthumi plays his organ at Shigatse (his retreat in Tibet) at night for souls who have made the transition. And he may be playing it to counteract Anton LaVey.
This is a slide of Anton LaVey again. I wanted you to take note of what he's doing with his hands. That's the Satanist mudra (with the thumb holding two center fingers against the palm, the index and little finger are raised). It represents the goat's head of the Goat of Mendes, also called the symbol of Baphomet, which is represented by the symbol behind his head. This satanic hand mudra is imitated by many of these heavy metal groups and listeners. In the clip we saw from 20/20 you could see a few of them doing it. But I'm going to show you some other clips as well and you will see that this is standard practice at a heavy metal concert.
It's a good bet that most teenagers have no idea what this means or that it has anything to do with Satanism. And the ones that do probably enjoy it. You know, there are the knowing ones and then there are their victims. Because we know that many of these teenagers are reembodied fallen Atlanteans, we can't say they're all innocent. But there's certainly a fair quotient of souls of light among them who have forgotten their spiritual birthright and are about to lose it.
Now I'd like to show you the first group, which is called Slayer. And if you thought Metallica was bad, this is worse. The name of the album here is Show No Mercy. On the cover you have the logo for Slayer, which is the inverted pentagram made up of swords with one sword missing. And who's holding the missing sword but the Goat of Mendes. That's a close-up of the Goat of Mendes.
The five-pointed star is the symbol of Christ - of you becoming the Christ. That's why we have the five-pointed star on our flag. America is a nation sponsored by Saint Germain where all people can pursue a path of personal Christhood with Jesus. So the inverted five-pointed star is the symbol for taking the figure of your Christhood and turning it upside down. This is the equivalent of placing the head of Jesus Christ at the base-of-the-spine chakra and perverting the light/energy/consciousness of the Children of Light into sexual orgies. Again, Satanism thrives on orgies because its rites are always aimed at raping the light of the chakras and the electromagnetic field of the body and the aura.
The lyrics which I'm going to read you are from the song "The Antichrist":
Screams and nightmares
Of a life I want
Can't see living this lie no
A world I haunt
You've lost all control of my
Heart and soul
Satan holds my future
Watch it unfold
I am the Antichrist
It's what I was meant to be
Your God left me behind
And set my soul to be free
Watching deciples
Of the satanic rule
Pentagram of blood
Holds the jackals truth
Searching for the answer
Christ hasn't come
Awaiting the final moment
The birth of Satans son
Screams,
From a life I live
Torment,
Is what I give
Torture,
Is what I love
The down fall
Of the heavens above
I am the Antichrist
All love is lost
Insanity is what I am
Eternally my soul will rot
So, now we'll see a videoclip of that song. [Videoclip of "The Antichrist" by Slayer played. At its conclusion Tom Araya (Slayer lead singer) says: "As I'm sure you're aware, we have a new album that's out, which I understand seems to be picked up by quite a few of you. I have one question - Have you learned the words to our songs? You have waited this long, Hell no longer awaits!"]
If you didn't see it, you wouldn't believe it. As you probably noticed, most of the members of the group were wearing upside-down crosses. It's the same principle as the inverted pentagram. Wearing Christ upside down. Inverting the crucifix when they perform a black mass - actually putting Christ's head at the level of the genital area - that's the meaning of the upside-down cross or crucifix. That's how vile Satanism is. I'm sure most people don't realize that.
I wanted everyone to take note of the head movements of the band members. This is a new thing with kids. It's called "headbanging." In fact, this is the throwing off of the energy of the spinal cord and the medulla oblongata through the centrifugal force of the head motion. We wonder why this is done and why it's been popularized.
According to LaVey, who wrote the Satanic Bible, all satanic rituals need the energy of the life-force behind them. Now, LaVey also says in the Satanic Bible that he discourages animal sacrifice and human sacrifice. Well, I wouldn't expect him to write about those things because he would fear the law and fear for his own life. But I don't think there's any doubt in anyone's mind that the Church of Satan does practice human and animal sacrifice. In his "bible" LaVey lists alternative methods of providing the energy for a satanic ritual. One of those methods is through taking the energy released in an orgasm.
Now we can see that this headbanging which takes place at these concerts produces an outflow of the life-force through the crown chakra which is similar to the release of the life-force through the base chakra in an orgasm. The head movement - it's tantamount to self-abuse. It is our conclusion, therefore, that the astral result of this and the astral result of a heavy metal concert in terms of the light released is identical to that which is released in an orgy or a ritual sacrifice.
You will notice also that the lead singer, whose name is Tom Araya, asks, "Have you learned the words to our songs?" Now, we heard on 20/20, and it's been printed in lots of newspapers and many people believe it, that lyrics don't mean anything. Well, the bands think that lyrics mean something. And the Satanists think that lyrics mean something. So the youth of America had better wake up to the fact that the lyrics do mean something and that when they go to these concerts and sing along and bang their heads to the syncopated beat, they are participating in satanic rituals.
We already knew that these lyrics are being pounded into the subconscious of the teenagers through the rock beat but now we have a performer openly talking about it. That's something that I've never seen before - not with lyrics that are this blatantly and openly satanic.
ECP: Well, this song is a decree - "I AM the Antichrist." He is revealing that they decree in Hell. Mark Prophet told me there are astral decree groups who decree against the Light and the Lightbearers. Tom Araya is teaching satanic decrees to those youths. And he wants them to know the words to the decree because, short of divine intervention, they will become antichrist in vibration when they say them.
SCP: The members of Slayer are Kerry King, lead guitarist; Jeff Hanneman - who wears an upside-down crucifix; Tom Araya - the lead singer that you saw in the video; and Dave Lombardo, the drummer. I also have two short audioclips to play but first I want to read you some more of their lyrics. This one, also by Slayer, is called "Evil Has No Boundaries":
Blasting our way through the boundaries of hell
No one can stop us tonight
We take on the world with hatred inside
Mayhem the reason we fight
Surviving the slaughters and killing we've lost
Then we return from the dead
Attacking once more now with twice as much strength
[twice as much strength after they got the light from their last foray]
Evil
My words defy
Evil
Has no disguise
Evil
Will take your soul
Evil
My wrath unfolds
Satan our master in evil mayhem
Guides us with every first step
Our axes are growing with power and fury
Soon there'll be nothingness left
Midnight has come and the leathers strapped on
Evil is at our command
We clash with Gods angel and conquer new souls
Consuming all that we can
So, I'll play that now. [Song "Evil Has No Boundaries" by Slayer played] The next song is a denial of the cross. It's called "Haunting the Chapel." It reads:
The holy cross, symbol of lies
Intimidate the lives of Christian born
Speak of death, the words of hate
Anticipation grows amongst the dead
Hell has seen the priests attempt
To bring forth their lord of the cross
Strike of twelve, raise the dead
The chapel comes under attack
The ghosts of sin torment the priests
Their altar will soon be destroyed
Heaven's palace turning black
The church now belongs to the dead
Blackened magic infest with lust
Lucifer rules supreme
The crystal ball shows unknown fate
The last thing that's heard is the screams
Ghosts from hell invade this feeble shrine
Heaven's holy house will fall in time
Satan's morbid soldiers chant in lust
Destruction of the church we'll burn the cross
Attacking angels as they pray to God
Tormented preachers hail the twisted cross
Haunting the chapel hell's demons prevail
Death has come, the house of God has failed.
It pains me to read these lyrics.
ECP: They're all decrees. All of them are decrees out of Hell.
SCP: Now, if there are any skeptics in the audience, and these lyrics and the satanic symbolism aren't enough to convince you that these singers are by choice the embodiment of Evil, we have for you a clip of an interview with a group known as Venom where the drummer is actually admitting to writing satanic lyrics. His name is Abaddon, as written in Revelation. You may or may not know it but Abaddon is also one of the "infernal names" used for conjuration in the Satanic Bible.
"The Devil writes the best tunes," says Abaddon. "We write strong lyrics about a strong subject, things from the Satanic Bible and Aleister Crowley." You know, Aleister Crowley is the occult leader who practiced black magic, calling himself "the Great Beast 666." He was reviled by the British press as "the Wickedest Man in the World" and has figured in rock from the start. He is present on the cover of the 1967 Beatles' album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
We'll play now the interview with Venom. You'll also hear some profanity here. [Videoclip of interview with Venom rock group played]
Interviewer: All right, we're sitting here, as is very obvious, in the bowels of Studio 54, believe it or not. [Venom lead singer howls like a wolf] And this is the ultimate revenge for disco tonight. I am sitting with two members of Venom [animal noises made by Venom], who are mostly housebroken. They're not bottle trained yet, though.
Interviewer: Collectively you have a stronger image or a stronger personality than you do individually.
Abaddon: That's something we've said all the time from the start was this band works as a solid unit.
Abaddon: Yeah, it's like a brick. Say, you know, it's just a solid unit which works. As parts it's, you know - I'm not a good drummer. He's not a particularly good singer. But put it all together and it works as a unit.
Interviewer: So the sum is greater than the parts.
Cronos: Since the day we began, the Venom concept was "We are a brick." And what you do is you got this area of land over here and you take a brick and you throw it and it goes [blast of music]. And then you take the brick and throw it over there again and then you pick it up from there and you throw it and like that's how Venom works. You land on a town. [several voices and blast]
Abaddon: You land somewhere and you hit it.
Cronos: And here's Venom at full flame, then off to the next town.
Abaddon: It's an old story that the Devil has the best tunes. And that's, that's the way we see it. We write strong lyrics about all sort of happenings or sort of things that have gone in the past and interesting things - things that, you know, that you read in Satanic Bible, that you read it from LaVey, that you read from Crowley. [emphasis added] So basically, that's it - we're writin' strong lyrics about a strong subject.
Cronos: Get the likes of King Billy, as we call him. And -
Cronos: And the guy like he's got it all wrong. His heart's in it. He's really going for it. And he thinks he's doing right and that, but the thing is you can't turn around and say to the kids, "Right, we're going to have, f ing rip virgins' heads off." I mean, what the hell is the point of that?
Interviewer: You mean there's no truth to the rumor you're going to sacrifice Madonna on stage tonight?
Cronos: Oh, we'll f her on stage tonight. But why sacrifice her? She's beautiful.
Abaddon: Sacrificing over a bitch, what?
Cronos: Oh, yes. Let her die and bring her back for an encore, you know.
Interviewer: Uncle Jack says -
Cronos: Really happening drink. Buy some. Drink it. No problem. Drink this, you'll fall over. [Abaddon and Cronos lick a Jack Daniel's bottle]
So there you see and hear him admitting to writing satanic lyrics. Now we will play the first song by them which is called "Witching Hour." [Videoclip of "Witching Hour" by Venom played]
How dare they do this on planet earth! How dare they bring their filth and their Hell into the physical plane! This sank Atlantis and it will sink this continent and cause earth changes if we don't stop it now!
You may have noticed that in addition to having the symbol of Baphomet on stage as their backdrop, the singer, when he wasn't singing, was mouthing and screaming.
Going back to Slayer, there's another song which comes very close to being an actual satanic invocation from the Satanic Bible. They're all satanic invocations but this one is particularly blatant. It's similar to the "Invocation Employed towards the Conjuration of Lust," which is in the Satanic Bible. It goes,
My rod is athrust!
The penetrating force of my venom
shall shatter the sanctity of
that mind which is barren of lust;
and as the seed falleth,
so shall its vapours be spread
within that reeling brain
benumbing it into helplessness
according to my will!
In the name of the great God Pan,
may my secret thoughts be marshaled
into the movements of the flesh
of that which I desire.
And then they say, "Hail Satan!" and with it a Hebrew name of God, Shemhamforash,18 which I will not do. The song by Slayer, "Captor of Sin," is not a verbatim transcription of the invocation but the concept is the same. We must look not at the specific words but at the fohatic keys of the invocation. The wording need not be the same to tie in to the same energy. Both have a sexual purpose, the former being the invocation for conjuration of lust and the following being its enactment. So I am referring mainly to the first verse of "Captor of Sin," which reads,
Harlots of hell spread your wings
As I penetrate your soul
Feel the fire shoot through your body
As I slip into your throne
Cast aside, do as you will
I care not how you plead
Satan's child now stalks the earth
Born from my demon seed
So it goes. I'd like to play that short first verse. [Excerpt of "Captor of Sin" by Slayer played] The two members of the band Venom are not merely possessed, they are actual black magicians who are knowingly doing what they're doing. They're a part of the false hierarchy of Satan.
So every one of these heavy metal musicians has a direct line to Satan. It's the antithesis of the spiritual hierarchy of Jesus Christ, the heavenly hosts, the Ancient of Days and his saints on earth - it's the false hierarchy. And so we can see that it's the Devil - or any of his lieutenants - giving dictations. Abaddon, Cronos, and their ilk are his messengers.
Now, a lot of people have defended these lyrics. They say, it's just rock and roll, it's just marketing - anything but what it really is. We must look at what things are, not at what we think or wish or hope they are, and not at our denial of what they are. Not facing up to the reality of embodied Evil is America's number one problem. You get people who'll look you straight in the eye and say that it's harmless. This is the Devil's word - "It's harmless." Any time you hear someone say that something's harmless you can be sure it's not harmless.
So, now I'll move on to the next group, which is called Megadeth. You may think that's a strange name for a group but I heard on National Public Radio that there are actually two groups who wanted to call themselves Megadeth and they sued each other to use the name. So I'm not sure who won, but there it is.
Some of these rock album covers don't really pertain to the content of the album but this one does. This is a song which is called "The Skull beneath the Skin." And that picture on the front cover is exactly what it's about. It's about a satanic ritual of torturing a person by removing their scalp while they're still alive and putting plates and staples on the skull so the person cannot see, hear, or scream.
Other songs on the album are "Loved to Deth," "Looking down the Cross" and "Mechanix." "Loved to Deth" is about necrophilia. "Mechanix" is a bizarre sexual song. And "Looking down the Cross" is another satanic decree. So I'll read the lyrics to "The Skull beneath the Skin":
Mean and infectious
The evil prophets rise
Dance of the macabre
As witches streak the sky
Decadent worship of
Black magic and sorcery
In the womb of the Devils dungeon
Trapped without a plea
See thing in agony
Necrosis is the fate
Pins sticking through the skin
The venom now sedates
Locked in a pillory
Nowhere to be found
Screaming for your life
But no-one hears a sound
Hellpp mmmeeeeeee
Prepare the patients scalp
To peel away
Metal caps his ears
He'll hear not what we say
Solid steel visor
Riveted cross his eyes
Iron staples close his jaws
So no one hears his cries
The skull beneath the skin
Now your drawn and quartered
Your bones will make the X
Symbol stands for poison
And it's chained to your head
And as we fold your arms
To make the holy cross
We cross the crucifix
Religion has been lost
The skull beneath the skin.
So I'll play that now. [Excerpt of "The Skull beneath the Skin" by Megadeth played] This song conjures up the feeling of being in Hell. As if I were somehow trapped in Hell and could not call to Archangel Michael, and this is what the Devil would play as he was revving up his demons to attack me. I mean, that's what comes to mind when I hear that song.
I think we need to look at what the teenagers do at these concerts. And I'll give you a little more detailed description. This is Dave Benser, the heavy metal musician who gave us the first description of the different types of heavy metal. He also has talked about moshing, slamming, and diving, which are the three different dances that they do at the heavy metal concerts.
So this is him with a picture of himself as a child. And it's not hard to figure out what caused the change. This is the one who listened to KISS in first grade. This is him in action with his band. That's a cartoon that was printed with the article. And that is the band.
Notice he's holding a skull. It's this obsession with death. I mean, why would anyone want to be so obsessed with death? There is no good explanation except that they are either possessed or influenced by these other satanic groups who started it in the first place. And we know heavy metal originated with the fallen ones in the bottomless pit. There were groups in the sixties, such as the Rolling Stones, and Van Halen in the seventies who referred to the Devil but it was never, never quite like this. I mean, it was much more polished, sophisticated and subtle.
Here's how an article from the Washington Post describes heavy metal dancing:
To mosh: a verb meaning to fling every limb as far from the torso as possible while maintaining as little equilibrium as possible.
[Dave] Benser on moshing: "Normally we have a pit. In the pit, you mosh. It's an aggressive-type dance. The object is to be as off balance as you can. The one who is most off balance is the best. You kick your feet and kick your legs and move your arms all about and shake your whole body. You can usually mosh during the slower songs, and you slam during the fast parts. A slam is just complete chaos."
To slam: a verb meaning to ricochet bodily off anyone, everyone. A full-contact, interactive ritual essential to heaviness.
Benser on slamming: "The first time you see someone slam, you look and say, `Oh, that's stupid.' But the first time you actually do it ... I remember the first time I actually moshed. That was in 1985 at Nuclear Assault and Overkill. The crowd was going crazy and I got involved. It just kind of happened. It was kinda like a whirlpool and I got sucked in. I've been moshing ever since. It's a way of life, I guess. I do it all the time.
"It lets you get the aggression out. It makes you sweat a lot. It's really a good time. It may not sound like it's all that fun. Banging bodies. Football is not as aggressive. This is full contact. You're constantly in motion and constantly touching another person. With football you're not in on every play.
"It's an incredible rush. You're always looking over your shoulder to make sure they don't dive on your head. There's a real feeling of brotherhood down there in the pit. [emphasis added] If someone falls, they pick you back up. Most of the time people catch you. Now and then you go somewhere and people are real amateurs. They don't know what's going on. They see someone flying through the air and they move."
To dive: a verb meaning to fly, preferably from a stage.
Benser on diving: "We must be airborne. Oh, the feeling of a dive. That's one of the best feelings in the world, `cause you have to trust people underneath of you to catch you. If they don't, you get little black elbows like I have now."19
This full contact is, again, just so many ways they invent to release the life-force. Back in the 20/20 clip they showed a little bit of the chaotic dancing. It looked like leaping demons.
You know, it's like he said - you get sucked in. I don't think anybody in their right mind would do it. But once they actually see their friends doing it, then they try it. And it feels good because the light is rushing out of their chakras and they continue. It's sensual.
This is a fourteen-year-old - Patrick Gilmore is his name - with a Slayer T-shirt with the inverted pentagram over his heart. You really have to wonder. I mean, is he a Lightbearer or a reembodied Atlantean? It's hard to say. But if he's a Lightbearer, he's being victimized.
This is Greg Rabinowitz. He's nineteen, in college. He doesn't look like he's into heavy metal, does he? He is. He complains that when he goes to concerts that he's ostracized because he doesn't wear costumes like everyone else. When they pass out literature they don't even give him any because they say, "Oh, you don't need any of this."
This brings us to our next group - Dark Angel. That's their logo. Notice the bat wings. There's the complete album cover. Now, this is death metal again. This particular group is preoccupied with nuclear war. All their songs are about the end of the world, nuclear war. There's a song on there about Nostradamus. It's really too long for me to play but basically it's a fatalistic acceptance of the prophecies of Nostradamus, with no attempt to change them. And it's a reveling in the death and the destruction that is prophesied.
The song that I'm going to play now is called "Darkness Descends," which is the name of the album. The chorus of this song is an astral decree in the extreme, even though these songs are all astral decrees. The way he repeats the chorus and the way that he says it is a misuse of the science of the spoken Word. So I'll read the words. And by the way, whoever is the lyricist is not just some teenager. He is very sophisticated. I mean, I had to look up some of these words in the dictionary.
The world now stands ancient, showing her age
Antique, senile, archaic
Peroration impending, not one to assuage
The human remnants of earth
Pandemic winds chill the soul
Eradication of the will
Nihilism extracts its toll
Frightening the meekly servile
Sacrosanct, the religious ones
Are fast becoming extinct
Chaotic precursors of what will befall
Permeate the night air
The fear of the end preys on the minds
Of all the soon-to-be dead
With death at the hands of a hideous fiend
A grisly fate to comprehend
Now, this is the astral decree part here.
This city is guilty
The crime is life
The sentence is death
Darkness descends
This is repeated over and over again in the song:
This city is guilty
The crime is life
The sentence is death
Darkness descends
Internal combustion, plutonic rage
The bodies create their own hell
The flame from within, unleashed from its cage
Purging the great sins of all
Admissions of guilt are all that are sought
By judges who have twisted laws
The quick abrogation of the populace
Striking with great enmity
Listing the ways in which we will die
As the prophets claim we will soon
Self-immolation that's unjustified
Stygian shores ahead loom
The coffins are ready, the death warrant signed
Depression has swiftly set in
Inimical powers against humankind
This charnelhouse ensanguined
Decaying, the ruins fall swift to the ground
The carnage is morbid and great
Mephitic deathstench of corpses abound
The earth meets an untimely fate
The horrific malignance, spreading its wings
Across the expanse of the sky
Contamination and all that it brings
The judges commit genocide
Retaliation, a useless ploy
We've gazed into the face of fear
We know that it stands for our own bitter end
The end we realize is now here
The claws of denouement grasp at our lungs
Asphyxiation rules supreme
The future of mankind cut down while they're young
Our children die clutching their dreams ...
The theme of this song is death, nuclear war, hopelessness - it is useless to retaliate, useless to defend ourselves, there's nothing we can do. So I'll play a little piece of "Darkness Descends" by Dark Angel now. [Excerpt of "Darkness Descends" played] I wanted you to notice how in the beginning of that song it started out slower and then it changed to this fast beat which is called "speed metal." No one played like that any more than five years ago. I had never heard anything like that before I started doing my research. The speed of it has a pummeling effect. You hear this and you just feel like you're being beat up. It's constant.
One thing I noticed is that the kick drum, the bass drum, is hitting every beat - and that's also unusual - as well as numerous other drums. But that constant, constant beating on your chakras is really something that is a more serious offense to the Light and it causes the protective membrane, which I discussed earlier, to rupture sooner than it would with lighter rock.
I think that rock and roll just gets more destructive by the year. And it takes less time for the Lightbearers to have their sheath torn and to let the astral through into the physical. Now as never before it's happening in record time.
There's another song by Dark Angel called "Perish in Flames" - again about nuclear war, this time talking about it actually happening instead of talking about the fear of it. It reads:
Your orders are given, the time for destruction is now
They'll give you no reason, you'll be the first so be proud
They've tracked you on radar, the fighters will lead to attack
because you know you might not make it back
Gods of war have gone insane
You've played with fire, you're to blame
Perish in flames
Perish in flames
Take a stand for what is right
Time is now so make the fight
Perish in flames
Die in flames, DIE!!
You've locked onto target, the missiles stand ready tolaunch
Your mind bleeds in terror, destination lines up in path
Your final descent, the bird of prey unleashes its wrath
You've pulled the trigger, the world goes insane so you laugh.
We'll play that now. [Excerpt of "Perish in Flames" by Dark Angel played]
You know, we have so many psychologists talking about nuclear fear in children. Well, we don't need a psychologist to tell us where today's teens get their fear of nuclear war! This fear of war breaks down the will. The point must be made: Totalitarianism is worse than nuclear war!
I cited in my New Year's Day lecture "Apathy in America" that there have been 190 million people killed by World Communism in this century. This is totalitarianism. And in World War II and all the wars in this century 60 million have died.20 So which is worse?
The apocalypse described in "Darkness Descends" fits a Soviet takeover much better than an all-out nuclear war. A surgical nuclear strike would be a part of Soviet takeover, as has been said. The slow death, burning and asphyxiation described might be from radiation or it could be death in a concentration camp. Solzhenitsyn mentioned live burial and drowning as Soviet mass-execution methods. "Darkness Descends" also fits chemical or bacteriological warfare.
Teenagers are being given a message of nihilism - that nothing can prevent what is to come. In fact, it is this very attitude of paralyzing fear that will bring the events to pass. And it is the beat of the music itself that acts as a psychic carrier wave for Soviet psychotronic warfare. It is the message of hopelessness and death that the Soviet psychics have been directing at America for decades, and this death metal becomes the anchor point in the physical for their mind manipulation of the American people.
It is highly doubtful that without rock music the Soviet psychics could have had any effect on Americans. The protective shield between the physical and the astral planes of the planet has been broken down by rock and roll in America. And the astral plane (which corresponds to the emotions and the subconscious mind) is the medium through which the Soviet psychics project the vibrations which cause depression, suicide and nihilism.
But it's not just heavy metal, it's all types of rock that provide this anchor point for what we call the International Capitalist/Communist Conspiracy. Just in case you doubt this, let's examine an album of mainstream rock from the mid-seventies. The album is Hotel California.
Now, we all know that the Eagles were an innocent band from California. Homegrown American boys playing nice party music for a fun-loving people, right? Wrong. "Hotel California," according to David Tame in his soon-to-be-published book Rock and Role, is the place where the Church of Satan was started.
Not only that, but when you look on the inside of this album you see that in addition to the Eagles, the band members who are in the center there, the crowd is made up of witches, homosexuals and other people of a lower vibration who you wouldn't want to be associated with. Not only that. If you look up in the middle window on the balcony there, you can see none other than Anton LaVey. Here's another shot, which is a little out of focus. Because of the dot structure of the litho you can see it a little bit better out of focus.
So we have the song "Hotel California," which sold millions of copies, and to many it's just an innocent song which doesn't mean anything. But to me it means a lot. So I will read now the lyrics to "Hotel California":
On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway;
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself,
`This could be Heaven or this could be Hell'
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor,
I thought I heard them say ...
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (such a lovely face)
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year, you can find it here
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes bends
She got a lot pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat,
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
So I called up the Captain,
`Please bring me my wine'
He said, `We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine.'
And still those voices are calling from far away,
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say ...
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (such a lovely face)
They livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise, bring your alibis
Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said, `We are all just prisoners here, of our own device'
And in the master's chambers,
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives,
But they just can't kill the beast
Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
`Relax,' said the night man,
`We are programmed to receive.
You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.'
I can't think of any physical event that this song would be describing other than a blood sacrifice. ("They stab it with their steely knives, but they just can't kill the beast.") "We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty-nine" could refer to the presence of none other than LaVey himself on the balcony. And the rest of it, there's innuendo all the way along - "This could be Heaven, this could be Hell."
You know, why was this person drawn into this hotel as he was cruising along the road? It's the allure of Death and Hell. That's the way I interpret it. "We are all prisoners here, of our own device" is talking about the fact that most souls would not knowingly choose the left-handed path, but many are seduced by its glamour and choose it inadvertently. Then they're hooked by their own desires. And, of course, the part "You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave" is the trap, once they've sprung it.
This rock and the Satanism in it has influenced our leaders and it's in the mainstream. And it's influencing people who never heard of heavy metal. These satanistic references are on the radio every day. In fact, I heard that Gary Hart met Donna Rice at a party at the residence of Don Henley, who is a member of the Eagles. So where can we find our next generation of leaders? Gary Hart could very well have been president. If he had been listening to this group and if he were still listening to this type of music, do you think he would be open to the divine solutions to the problems that face us?
The next group I am going to talk about is Suicidal Tendencies. Their album is called Join the Army. And this is a very low caricature of Uncle Sam on the cover - "I Want You to Join the Army." The lyrics of this song, which I am going to read but not play, is another dictation from the suicide entity, which even makes a subtle reference to the influence of the Soviet psychics. To some of you this connection to Soviet psychics may be weak, but to me it is abundantly clear. The song is called "Suicidal Maniac."
A birth that came from more than sound
Now rages on from town to town
A giant grows more every day
And now the Maniac is here to stay
A feeling you can't kill
It's the power, it's a will
Controls your thoughts but you can't see
Just when you thought it safe he suddenly appears
He feels no pain, he has no mercy or no fears
He gives the message and your mind is filled with blue
And now the Maniac lives inside of you
He's back. The Suicidal Maniac
Each day he grows more and more
He's bigger now than ever before
His thoughts he'll compromise on never
He can't be stopped. He'll live forever
Blast away through the mind
A power of another kind
A presence that is growing out of sound
And now it's come, the time the Maniac I'll meet
He takes my hand and now I bow down to his feet
His love for me is like a father to a son
And now the Maniac and I are one
I bow to his might
Too powerful to fight
It's my destiny
Now the Maniac lives inside of me
An army at his command
A strength that you can't comprehend
A force unknown can now be told
The power of the world he holds
A feeling you can't kill
It's the power. It's the will
Controls your thoughts but you can't see
Just when you thought it safe he suddenly appears
He feels no pain, he has no mercy or no fears
He gives the message and your mind is filled with blue
And now the Maniac's a part of you
And the time has come. The Maniac you'll meet
He takes your hand and now you bow down to his feet
His love for you is like a father to a son
And now the Maniac and you are one
I don't know where to start with that. The whole thing is a description of the suicide entity taking over a soul. And we have the first line - "A birth that came from more than sound." Now, we know that sound is the power of creation. In fact, we even know that the seed of the Wicked One used the rock beat to create their slave race.
What is this "more than sound" that is referred to? To me, it is vibration, energy, and I see it as the link to the Soviet psychics. What has brought suicide into America besides rock music? - Soviet psychics and their psychotronic warfare. They amplify what's bothering us and multiply it till many simply can't cope. They no longer have the will to live to fight.
There are undoubtedly multiple and complex causes for suicide in our national psyche but, in addition, consider the phrases "controls your thoughts but you can't see" and "he gives the message and your mind is filled with blue." To me, this is a reference to psychic mind manipulation.
Consider that on the astral plane the suicide entities (demons and discarnates) are working to steal the Light of the Children of God and the Soviets are working on the astral with their psychics to break down American will. The two factions can be seen to have a common enemy - the Lightbearers. Both have everything to gain by spilling the Light (Christ consciousness) of America. We also know that all of Death and Hell are working through the Soviet Union to destroy freedom on this planet. So again, things equal to the same thing are equal to one another.
And just to make sure that there will be no young patriotic Americans left, even the urge to defend our nation is exploited in this album. With the title "Join the Army," the single is a low-down parody of a marine recruiting song. It implores the youth to march to the "suicidal beat" and to join the army of "suicidal rock."
Now, it's an obvious and acknowledged fact even by the musicians themselves that rock music in our society today is the most powerful force for social change. Frank Zappa said that. It's affected our entire way of life. Although astrologically, rock came in on December 31, 1959, as I said earlier, a few "pioneers" were already rocking in 1956. The sixties moved on to folk rock and early political rock.
With rock America lost its first major war - Vietnam. We had never lost a war before. Rock made us spineless as a nation. We've never won a war since except Grenada, and that really wasn't a war. We won Grenada because of Oliver North, because he planned it and it was covert and we didn't have the media there to stop it! Now, of course, North is being crucified for his other patriotic and covert actions.
Rock has made it impossible for us to win anything. The most important force for winning battles is the will to fight. That is why combatants engage in propaganda campaigns and leafleting against their enemies. These tactics seem quaint when compared with the massive aural and psychic assault being waged on the Lightbearers of America through today's rock music. It has completely demoralized our youth and removed their will to fight.
And there's a reason for that. The syncopated 4/4 beat is a perversion of the 4/4 martial time of the base-of-the-spine chakra. Whereas the march time is the measured rhythm of the rising Kundalini fire, the syncopated 4/4 causes the exact opposite. It lowers the Kundalini. It actually drives it down - thus draining the upper chakras and the spine of the vital life-force of the Divine Mother.
The accumulation of the energy in the base chakra - which is naturally distributed throughout the body through the chakras, through the central nervous system - causes a buildup which may be released through violence, anger, sexual promiscuity and the black arts. The end result being that the will to be, to create, and to defend one's right to so be and to so create exists no more. Thus the defense of freedom and of life are missing from today's vacant youth.
So we come again to this concept of transference. This song, "Join the Army," advocates joining the suicidal army. Instead of being in the army fighting for life, our teenagers are encouraged to join the juggernaut of rock, marching toward self-destruction. Here are the lyrics:
I got a story to tell, now listen up real well
Pay attention this way to what I got to say
Took it to the street, rap to the people we meet
Now we're rocking out hard, to the Suicidal beat
Tried to deny our right, so we put up a fight
Just doing our thang, they tried to call it a gang
Saw the way we look, that's all that it took
That's all she wrote, they had their scapegoat
Dressed down, Homeboyz, minority - Join the Army
We're the few, we're the proud, we like to jam it loud
The music we play, won't have it any other way
We're armed to the bone with our music and our tone
Recruiting on the street, with the sound of our beat
Growing larger every day, and everytime we play
Don't need no college plan, we're just a hard-rocking band
We like our music to please, but we ain't gonna appease
No pressure's too much, to make us change our touch
Hardcore, Metal, the New Wave
We're not a gang - Join the Army
Don't be no fool, don't let your prejudice rule
Don't judge by your fear, judge us by your ear
Can't believe every word, of every story that you've heard
Just play the song, I know you'll start to rock along
Well I don't care, `bout the clothes you wear
It's the size of your heart, not the length of your hair
Don't make no difference to me, the color that you be
Black, white or brown, it's all the same to me
Well if you still don't believe, you best get up and leave
Do what you must do, but this ain't the place for you
You got no right, but if you start a fight
We'll be rockin your head, but with our fists instead
I'll fight it with the band, right down till the end
Ask anyone I've met, this ain't no idle threat
Don't flap no fit, and it won't come to this
Bust as for me, I'm down with the Army
New York, London, Venice
Why join a gang?
Join the Army
Suicidal Rock - Join the Army
Suicidal Rock - Join the Army
Suicidal Rock - Join the Army
Suicidal Rock - Join the Army
Suicidal Rock - I WANT YOU TO Join the Army
So we'll play part of that now. [Excerpt of "Join the Army" by Suicidal Tendencies played] The back cover of the album is the high altar of suicide. Here you see the character that was depicted on the front of the album as a Rambo-type figure with a machine gun. He's now dead - impaled and dismembered on the suicidal altar. Another part of the album is mostly just contorted faces in despair in a collage. So that's Suicidal Tendencies.
Now we'll move on to Dirty Rotten Imbeciles. Better known as D.R.I., they're quite popular. Makes you wonder. This is more death metal. It's aimed at the destruction of society. And it casts the Americans as the imbeciles. It's very insulting. It also deals a lot with nuclear war. The first song that I am going to talk about is called "Tear It Down." Listen to these words:
Fighting this society there's only
One way to win
We must stick together through
All thick and thin
Cross over the line of
Your stubborn closed mind
Don't be surprised at what
You might find
Things you thought wrong may have
Always been right
You'll probably find fault
In your reasons to fight
You really don't differ from
What I can see
Ain't it time to unite or is it just me?
Just as we watch them
Build this empire
So they shall watch us tear it down
If not with your words then with
The power of our sound!
We are the future so
Let's get things straight
Combine our forces
Before it's too late
Fighting ourselves
Can't go on any longer
We must fight together
If we want to grow stronger
We can tear it down
We must tear it down
We will tear it down
So we'll play that now. [Excerpt of "Tear It Down" by Dirty Rotten Imbeciles played] Before Mother even heard that song she commented to me that all heavy metal and rock in general has the message of "tear it down." And this song is just the crystallization of what was already there. Listening to Suicidal Tendencies from the next room while I was doing this research, she said, "It's as if there were a subliminal in this, and what it would be saying all the time, inaudibly, is `tear down, tear down, tear down, tear down.' That's how it vibrates to me." And this was the other music, not "Tear It Down" that you just heard.
So in the next song we have an actual simulated nuclear attack. It's called "Oblivion." It begins with an air raid siren and the sound of a crowd screaming in terror. You hear the sound of a nuclear bomb being dropped from a plane and instead of the explosion, the music begins with a violent crash of drums and electric guitar. I'll read you the lyrics:
The day has come
The time is near
For all to end
It's true, it's here
It's all over now
No way to stop
The button's been pushed
The bomb's been dropped
The city is melting
The sky burns red
The ocean is boiling
We'll soon be dead
Death has come knocking
The door's open wide
He's let himself in
No place to hide
A tidal wave of power
Coming over the hill
A great wall of thunder
Swooping down for the kill
Leveling, destroying
Everything in its path
Just seconds left now
Till we feel its wrath
People run rabid
From the great blast
The Beast is upon us
It's here at last
The streets echo screams
Filled with fear
All through the universe
But no one will hear!
[Excerpt of "Oblivion" by Dirty Rotten Imbeciles played] This is how our twelve-year-olds relate to nuclear war. That's it. That's all there is. They never heard of Thomas Krebs or Danny Graham or High Frontier or any of the speakers whom we've heard Mother interview at Summit University Forum who've told us the real story. This is why we have no will to prepare to fight nuclear war, if necessary, and to remain free. This is it. I mean, you don't need to look any further than these lyrics and this sound because what you grow up on you internalize and it becomes a part of you.
And if the youth internalize this song, they've lived it, and they are already dead (so to speak) because they `died' in the attack. They're psychologically dead from that time on - from the time they've heard this song. It's the explosion of the base chakra. It's the ultimate hatred of the Divine Mother. It's just like putting a nuclear bomb on the base chakra of the Mother to blow up her womb so she cannot bear the Divine Manchild - and in this case the Mother is America, the Motherland.
And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. ...
And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. ...
And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. ...
And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
The rock music you've been hearing is the `water' (i.e., astral sewer) that the dragon cast out of his mouth "as a flood." Rock music is the open warfare declared by the seed of Darkness against the remnant of the seed of the Woman. This was prophesied. People should have seen it coming when Elvis Presley arrived on the scene. The furor that was raised over Presley in the 1960s has today become the worship of a fallen angel.
Today's parents think today's music is "harmless" and they allow their children to continue to listen to it, to continue to destroy themselves and in the process they are building a future generation which has no will to defend our nation against a nuclear attack. It is all-out war against the Lightbearers.
If we want to know where nuclear fear is coming from, we should look at the rock bands, not at our government, and certainly not at our military. Some psychologists have even said that we shouldn't teach children about nuclear war because it will incite fear in them. But we let them listen to the music.
So I think, as parents, we should teach children early the facts about what's really going on. And if they are going to get caught up in this death metal, which sometimes parents are helpless to prevent, at least they will have the early teaching from their fathers and mothers that they can refer back to when and if they regain their senses.
ECP: The comment that El Morya made about "Oblivion" is that it is an attack on the heart and on the threefold flame. It is the bombardment of the physical heart and the disruption of the heartbeat, which disrupts the ability of the soul to attune with the threefold flame in the secret chamber of the heart.
One of the things that Saint Germain and El Morya taught me in December concerning death is that the projection of death has no power over you unless it can get you to accept death. So they begin with the projection that you are going to die, which is what all this death metal is - "You are going to die by nuclear war." It pounds into you by this irregular beat - the syncopated beat that is the perversion of the 4/4 time of the base chakra, as you said.
So, once you have accepted that you are going to die, then you are wide open through the heart chakra for your death by the disruption of the heartbeat. And Jesus said that in these days men's hearts would fail them for fear.21 And it's through the rock beat that the heart is destroyed and death enters. Death cannot enter your life if you do not give in to it and accept it. And the projection of the Death entity who comes in many guises works very, very hard on people, even apart from rock music, to get them to accept death.
To me this is a planetary plot. A large percentage of this nation is accepting nuclear death because this music - the fastest growing segment of the rock industry - is entering the psyche at the subconscious level. You are absorbing the message subconsciously even when you're not aware of it. And so you are not consciously counteracting it.
SCP: In fact, even as we sit here we're probably absorbing radio waves that are being transmitted which we have no control over. And I don't know how they affect the body physically. But I know that on a spiritual and astral level the constant playing twenty-four hours a day of this music, especially in the big cities but even out here in Montana, has a lot to do with our loss of will even though we are unwilling participants. Because even if we decide to tune it out, it still passes through us.
So the good news is I don't have any more heavy metal songs to play! But I do have some more slides and a video promo that has heavy metal imagery and I am also going to tell you about the record companies. So we continue.
This is the back cover of the Dirty Rotten Imbeciles' album. It looks to me like it has a black widow spider in the middle of it. This shows what they think of America. It says, "Imbeciles of America," and it has everyone holding up placards with pictures of imbeciles on them. That's from their insert inside of their album. They had many more little cartoons but I thought that was one you should see.
Now we come to the record companies. You wonder who's behind all this. Well, here we go. Combat Records, Death Records, and Suicidal Records, which is the record company for Suicidal Tendencies. And then we have the record company which is responsible for a large portion of the heavy metal and that is Metal Blade Records.
So I'd like to play you a video promo now for some of these albums. This is the Combat Rock promo. ["Combat Visual Catalogue" video played]
Major Mayhem (Paul Aaronson): OK. Listen up, you brain-dead mongers. You want to be metal heads, you gotta listen to the right metal, right? OK, here's your basic training.
Now, pay attention `cause my name is Major Mayhem. And it's my job to turn you goons into proper combat metal troops, no matter how sniveling and weak you are. OK, now that we got that straight, grab these combat discs and stick `em between your ears. You got Venom, Possessed, Exodus, Bonded by Blood, and Slayer, Hell Awaits. This is the death metal squadron. Ride with these guys and the Devil is your co-pilot.
All right, so you mastered death, now you're ready to try special forces - the combat T-squad to you goons. Talas, Live Speed and Sink Your Teeth, Tokyo Blade, Midnight Rendezvous and Night of the Blade, and TKO, In Your Face. These boys specialize in administering violence with taste.
Now, these next guys you don't want to mess with - the combat rangers. Megadeth, Killing Is My Business, Abattoir, Vicious Attack, and Sabotage, Dungeons. If there's a dirty job to be done, you send in the rangers and pray to God you live.
The combat army marches with a strong infantry. Get your combat boots stompin' with OZ, Fire in the Brain and III Warning, the Rods, Let Them Eat Metal and The Rods Live, and Merciful Faith, Don't Break the Oath, Trouble, the Skull, and Action, Look Out for the Night. Any of these divisions can pulverize your pea-sized brain.
And finally there's the combat ultra assassin squad. Oh, my God! So hideous, even I don't get too near them. Impaler, Rise of the Mutants.
OK, pinheads, that's your basic training [yelling and screaming in the background] in combat metal. You can thank your lucky stars we've trained your ears in the finest metal wealth in the whole of the U.S. of A. Combat Records. Your next phase of training will include Exciter, Possessed, Thrasher, Running Wild, Nasty Savage, and the dangerous agent Steele. Hallow's Eve.
Remember, bang your head till you're dead. Dismissed!
You will notice that all these fans are young and that they're all doing the Satanist mudra. That clip was tacked onto the end of a heavy metal concert video. These videos are available to children of all ages - not just records but videos. All the videoclips we've shown tonight, with the exception of 20/20, were bought over the counter at suburban record stores in upper middle-class neighborhoods.
Now, I'd like to go on to political heavy metal, which I won't play but I just want to talk a little bit about it.
There's a band called Corrosion of Conformity. This is their album - Technocracy. This album did not include the lyrics. And I tried to listen to the music and get some of the lyrics but it was impossible. I couldn't hear one word in any of the songs. But I did get out of the inside an insert, an order form for T-shirts. And I'll read you what the T-shirts say.
Now, this one says, "American dollars and weapons gleam, support another corrupt regime. Human rights long out of style, another killing, another farce trial. Intervention, all the millions spent in aid, spent on war parade. Technological march of death, finalize a child's last breath. Intervention, warmongers in search of victims, make their mark in history, as the children die of asphyxiation. Another child killed for political position. Intervention, we ain't gonna study war no more. Stop funding war in Central America. No more murder in our name."
This is T-shirt #2. It has, again, the symbol for Death Records. I believe that the logo represents a symbol for radiation. And the text says, "They rip the flesh from our mother's breast / Because the War Machine runs on high test. / Greedy fools don't have the sense / To leave the radiation where it rests."
This is supposed to be profound. It's more anti-American rhetoric. And these are "nice boys" from North Carolina.
That is the end of our heavy metal section. Thank you.
