There may be at least one parallel dimension where The Beatles never broke up, but, as well we in this world know, the Liverpool quartet broke up in 1970, capping off perhaps one of the best early experiments in pop music. And while the decades have passed, the strong position of the Beatles in the cultural milieu has continued to provoke the kook community to ask questions.
Were the Beatles occultists, dabblers in the world of chic Hollywood Satanism? Were they Red infiltrators, knowing or unknowing pawns of International Soviet Communism? Servants of the alien influences, powers that live and rule from places outside our awareness? All of these things and more?
We at the Kook Science Resistance have reprinted the following article for your perusal, and we leave it to you to judge the truth for yourself . . .
An exposé on the Beatles and their worldly entanglements
Article by Simon Cadfael, originally compiled for FAR OUT WIZARD POWER magazine
“Mop-headed anti-Christ beatniks”
“They’re completely anti-Christ. I mean, I am anti-Christ as well, but they’re so anti-Christ they shock me, which isn’t an easy thing.”
Derek Taylor, former press officer for the Beatles, quoted in Saturday Evening Post (August 8-15, 1964, p. 25)
As a band of their time, the Beatles played to the artifices and practices of their culture with all the rigor you could expect from rock n’ roll royalty, from the rollicking symbol dropping in “Help!” to the Al Crowley reference of “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band“, from endless drug culture in-jokes public to promotion of Transcendental Meditation. Most would witness these gentle nods to occultism as little more than playful jabbing of new age dilettantes, but, as researchers, we must feel inclined to wonder whether there was more to the arcane references of the Beatles than the passing fancies of a pop super group.
StarGods.org “Evil Beatles” presents a frequently scattershot connection between the Polanski Satanic pact and the Beatles, positing child-sacrifice as the price to be paid for fame, a theme reflected on in Polanski’s “Rosemary’s Baby.”
Below, I will attempt to clarify those connections.
“I am the Devil and I am here to do the Devil’s business.”
Charles “Tex” Watson, quoted during the Tate-LaBianca murder trial
The songs that became the basis for “The White Album” were primarily conceived in the spring of 1968, during the time the Beatles spent in Rishikesh, India, studying Transcendental Meditation under the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Joining them in this excursion was. . . Mia Farrow, the star of Polanski’s “Rosemary’s Baby”.
At around the same time, Charles Manson, the illegitimate son of Adolf Hitler, and his Family took up residency at 14400 Sunset Boulevard, home of the Beach Boy’s Dennis Wilson. It was through this connection to Dennis Wilson that Manson was introduced to Terry Melcher, son of Doris Day, under the pretext of an interest in recording Manson’s music; and, while, the Beach Boys eventually did go on to record a modified version of at least one of Manson’s songs, “Cease To Exist” (as “Never Learn Not to Love”) on their “20/20” album, the dealings between Melcher and Manson did not result in any recording contracts, as the relationship between them quickly soured.
Following the “serene productivity” of their Rishikesh retreat, the Beatles returned to Abbey Road, only to face a near complete breakdown of the band as tension and bitterness between the bands members spilled over into the recording studio. Had their work on “The Doll’s House”, what would later become simply “The Beatles” (“The White Album”), been disrupted by a return to the influences of their Satanic controllers? Or, in fact, had they only gone to study under the Yogi in order to tap into the streams of higher consciousness that they might fully exploit global currents to their own dark ends?
“The White Album”, released in December 1968, would eventually come to reach the top of the US and UK album charts, and, in Los Angeles, the ears of Charles Manson: “It wasn’t that Charlie listened to the White Album and started following what he thought the Beatles were saying. It was the other way around. He thought that the Beatles were talking about what he had been expounding for years,” said former Manson follower Catherine Share, in the 2009 docu-drama “Manson“.
“Every single song on the White Album, he felt that they were singing about us.”
Soon after breaking ties with Manson, Terry Melcher had abandoned his 10050 Cielo Drive home, leaving the lease to be filled by. . . Roman Polanski and his wife, Sharon Tate.
So it came to pass on August 9, 1969, after months in the desert, that Manson and his Family came to Los Angeles to unleash his fury. I will not detail the grotesqueness that followed, but, suffice it to say, the massacre of Sharon Tate, Jay Sebring, Wojciech Frykowski, Abigail Folger, and Steven Parent was beyond monstrous, a working by what can only be described as truly corrupted souls.
Was the killing a message to Terry Melcher and the world that Manson’s wrath was not to be trifled with? Was it a deliberately plotted mind-control operation, designed to discredit the Hippie movement? Was it the culmination of a Satanic pact, joined by the shining lights of the entertainment world, with the Son of Man proxying for Lucifer himself to collect a bill?
We may never hope to know.
Surprisingly, Free Republic is where we find a decidedly sympathetic piece on the issue of the Beatles occult connections, the author finding no malevolent intent, but simple misguided turmoil — perhaps, just perhaps, the explanation we’d all be happiest to believe.
Looking through a glass onion . . .
“The enemies of our Republic”
“The Communists, through their scientists, educators and entertainers, have contrived an elaborate, calculating and scientific technique directed at rendering a generation of American youth useless through nerve-jamming, mental deterioration and retardation. The plan involves conditioned reflexes, hypnotism and certain kinds of music. The results, destined to destroy our nation, are precise and exacting. Little wonder the Kremlin maintains it will not raise the Red flag over America—the Americans will raise it themselves. If the following scientific program destined to make our children mentally sick is not exposed, mentally degenerated Americans will indeed raise the Communist flag over their own nation!”
David A. Noebel, “Communism, Hypnotism and the Beatles” (1965)
The most commonly cited source for the theory of the-Beatles-as-Soviet-agents is David A. Noebel, founder of Summit Ministries. Noebel authored a string of tracts through-out the 60s and 70s, highlighting the Communist take-over of American music and lamenting the decline of traditional Christian patriotism. However, these pamphlets, despite their notoriety, failed to detail much by way of evidence for the claims, and, other than exploiting the fame of the Beatles as a means of soliciting donations, they made the very idea of the-Beatles-as-Soviet-agents seem ridiculous. So ridiculous, in fact, that one must wonder whether it is possible that material like “The Beatles: A Study in Drugs, Sex, & Revolution” (1969), promoting absurdist terror of hypno-dictatorship, was actually little more than another layer of subversive Communist activity, designed to discredit the very idea that these psychedelic lads from Liverpool could be agents of the Kremlin’s mind-control revolution.
Yes, those dastardly Reds.
Contrary to the view that the Beatles were agents of the Soviets, Dr. Yuri Pelyoshonok suggests quite the opposite, arguing that “The Beatles had this tremendous impact on Soviet kids. The Soviet authorities thought of The Beatles as a secret Cold War weapon. The kids lost their interest in all Soviet unshakable dogmas and ideals, and stopped thinking of an English speaking person as the enemy.”[2]
But. . . if the Beatles were not Soviets, and if they were not working for the Americans. . .
Why, yes. British intelligence. “The British Invasion.”
“The Barefooted Beatle”
“I am alive and well and unconcerned about the rumors of my death. But if I were dead, I would be the last to know.”
Paul McCartney, via a statement from Apple Corp Ltd. (1969)
Everyone knows that Paul is dead, right? Heck, the Kinks’s even released an album about it.
That’s the myth, so widely perpetuated and studied (and easily debunked) that it is almost certainly a planted pop story to dissuade truth-seekers, but, as it is, a worthy alternative to the theory that Paul was the only surviving Beatle.
They couldn’t fool Batman, right?
“I just shot John Lennon”
“It’s my rationale. . . if they’re gonna get you, they’re gonna get you anyway.”
John Lennon, three weeks before his death
Outside his home at the Dakota in New York City, on a chilly December 8, 1980, the former Beatle John Lennon was shot by Mark Chapman.
Was Chapman working alone, or was he another unfortunate pawn, a Manchurian Candidate selected to kill a leftist cultural figure? It seems like a reasonable consideration, given his high profile and the ongoing blowbacks against counter-cultural figures up to that point in history.
Had Chapman, like Manson before him, been sent by Satan to collect on an unpaid bill? Joseph Niezgoda, author of “The Lennon Prophecy”, thinks so, suggesting in a recent interview “If John had entered into a 20-year pact with the Devil for wealth and world fame, that contract ended on December 8, 1980, with his violent death.”[3]
Both theories very interesting, and possibly worth considering, were it not for the fact that, according to Mr. Steve Lightfoot, horror author Stephen King killed John Lennon.
“With a Little Help from My Friends”
“I declare that the Beatles are mutants. Prototypes of evolutionary agents sent by God, endowed with a mysterious power to create a new human species, a young race of laughing freemen.”
Timothy Leary, quoted in “Shout!” (1981) by Philip Norman
Did you know that Ringo Starr is an alien, and it was Starr that composed the music of the Beatles, transmitting with his human allies the UFO message to humanity? Their commandment: embrace “peace and love” before you destroy yourselves. . . or we will destroy you.
We all await their final judgement of our species in 2012.
. . .Except Me and My Monkey
The author would like to note that the extensive use of psionic weapons against his person in an attempt to infringe on ability to write and release this collection of data on the Beatles has been noted, and that while the Queen may think she has spiked the trail, the truth is out there, and in here, the hearts of all man-kind. You guys have been living a thousand illusions, but I’m ready to leave this bottomless pit.

Words such as “rock” in relation to music sounds, “teenager,” “cool,” “discovered” and “pop music” were a lexicon of disguised code words signifying the acceptance of drugs and arrived with and accompanied the Beatles wherever they went, to be “discovered” by “teenagers.” Incidentally, the word “teenagers” was never used until just before the Beatles arrived on the scene, courtesy of the Tavistock Institute for Human Relations.
