The rock group "The Beatles," brought druid, rock music to the United States in the 1960's A.D. They influenced people, and the doors were opened to witchcraft and the "occult world" with their satanic beats. The “Beatle” phenomenon was a part of a well orchestrated conspiracy. They were used as pawns as a means of social conditioning or social change. What do I mean by social change? Oftentimes when you have large groups of people, social change is unwanted. Thus, when the Beatles were brought to the United States by Tavistock as a part of the Aquarian Conspiracy, they would be used to aid in the brainwashing (really brainprogramming) of large groups of people unbeknowing to them. It was not by chance that the Beatles just popped up on the scene. It was a carefully orchestrated plan to bring them to the United States in order to induce a new and very effective “destructive element.” That being, the Beatles, or better yet the people would be forced to change against their will. Now, they are trying to bring them back. The Beatles were part of The Aquarian conspiracy. What Is The Aquarian Conspiracy?. If I told you, it probably wouldn’t make any sense to you, however it is a living entity that came about when the way man appeared, began to change. Or as Dr. John Coleman put it, “The Changing Images of Man,” “URH (489) - 2150 - Policy Research Report No.4/4/74. Policy Report prepared by SRI Center for the Study of Social Policy, Director, Professor Willis Harmon.” When you look at the actual project with a report number it becomes frightening, because it is then you begin to realize that this is not a joke. That there are organizations out there whose sole purpose is to look at society with a broader scope and figure out ways to break it down, and destroy it. Thus, when the reality hits you, it should make you want to know more, but instead you turn your back on the facts and pretend as if they don’t exist, when they do. Remember, just because you don’t want to hear it doesn’t mean they are going to stop what they’re doing to pacify you, because they’re not. Don’t fool yourselves! Not only the Beatles, but new words like cool, rock, and teenager, which didn’t even exist until the Beatles popped up on the scene, compliments of Tavistock Institute for human relations, which was a part of a specific code of workds. Now-a-days listen to the children speak. Listen also to their slang. It all started way back then. It worked, our children can’t even speak anymore.

It is with all due respect, Horus, that I offer that:

Actually, the term "rock" (as in "rock and roll") was coined by a disc jockey several years before the Beatles became popular (or even known) in the US.  "Teen ager" has an even longer history.

Incidentally, all through history the naysayers have tried to indict changes in popular culture as the end of societal sensibility.  Jazz music was considered "the devil's music."  Prior to that, the music of composers who are now considered great (e.g., Franz Liszt) was considered to be inspired by "demonic possession." 

It's clever to put a so-called scholarly spin on such things, but if the support isn't there (and, in this case, it isn't) then these studies are little more than that--exercises in scholarly rhetoric. 

"Satanic beats"?  Give a listen.  Much of the Beatles' music was derivative, at best.  In fact, before John & Paul became known as such stellar songwriters, they "covered" a lot of tunes.

I don't buy that whole "druid" theory. Rock music is as satanic as R&B is. As a black boy who is also a heavy metal fan, I have been to both RnB and heavy metal concerts. You don't get the nasty, thuglife behaviour of the RnB concerts and metal gigs. You don't get metalheads going around in gangs and killing each other.

Simple logic.

Oh dear me,  I guess its pretty obvious to everyone now that the satanic "rock music" picture that was bandied around the churches and schools in the mid to late nineties here in nigeria was a sad, sad, sad period in our entertainment history. Its the major cause for the stupid blight of "hiphop and r&b" music that we so readily claim is "african"(?).

Wake up and smell the coffee.

King Sunny Ade was described as a rocker in his time. Cheesy

Most gospel music is rock music. what should that tell you? Or are u suggesting that the instant you add "jesus" to your lyrics, the whole genre instantly becomes sanctified for that particular song alone?

Expressing an opinion does not change the fact that such an opinion could be founded on wrong assumptions, so that is not an excuse (no offense intended O,  lol).

anyway, thanks for the post though, as it goes to show just how many nigerians have broken free from the oppression of our misguided, xenophobic, illiterate and unfortunate miseducation on music in general.

Viva la rock.

Oh yeah!, and before you claim that gospel rock is not "the type of rock you are talkin about", i suggest you do some research, and listen to flyleaf, avenge 7 fold, three days grace, and other gospel rock bands, and you'll see what i mean.

hahaha.

A7x is rather rubbish IMO but I'm more into the heavier, more melodic stuff (checkout killswitch engage).

But they are are called a Christian Metalcore band because all the members are (or were) christians, and because their name "Avenged Sevenfold" is from the book of genesis; not because they sing christian music.

well, I see your point,  they may not be strictly "gospel", but they are a self-proclaimed christian  rock group, who proudly make and perform so called "satanic music". Its only a bush man (no offense) that would claim that rock music is satanic given the facts of reality. Music is a medium for expression. The use of the media for a particular thing does not in anyway affect its intrinsic nature,

Its like saying that "fictional prose" is satanic because salman rushdie wrote "The satanic verses" using that writing style.

As I said before, BUSH!

mama-gee, on the other hand is expressing her opinion, which is better, since hers is a matter of personal taste, and not an Indictment of the ENTIRE genre and its fans,  I wonder how the genius who started this whole post would feel if an idiot came along and said "I think football is satanic, because it gives me nightmares, and that is my personal opinion",

Pretty much any song lyrics can be construed in any of a number of ways.  Witness the old Peter, Paul & Mary song, "Puff, the Magic Dragon."  Some would say it's a children's song, allegorical with respect to growing up .  Some would say it's about illicit drug use.  Whose interpretation is correct? 

Regardless of what it's called (rock, metal, grindcore, gothic, thrash, etc), we're talking about pop tunes, my friends!  Simple, frivolous, disposable pop tunes!  These are not done with the intent of creating some sort of high art form (in spite of what you're led to believe)--rather, they're aimed at being quickly put together, easily performed and cheaply distributed.  Why?  For the simple expediency of making their creators money!  This is true of rock, country, jazz, Christian, folk or any other genre of recorded music.  And, the more attention they get--even negative attention--keeps the cash rolling in. 

In the business of music, as in any other business, there's a lot of hype (short for hyperbole, i.e., wild exaggeration).  Think through it.

If your postings are directed at me, I very humbly thank you for your kind words and overall graciousness.  Both are much appreciated.  However, there's really no genius involved.  Just a willingness to think critically and not follow the "herd mentality."

I think the poster means death metal or something.
OP , could you be more specific about the genre you are
referring to, please.
Rock is very diverse as other posters have pointed out.

And for me, the most demonic music is probably those
seedy rappers that go on about women in a degrading
manner.

So-called love songs are also deceptive and destructive. They are about worshipping another person and about the present world becoming perfect. Newsflash: This world will NEVER be perfect and worshipping your significant other is idolatry. The woman is the man's helpmate, not some supreme being.

The Initiator of this thread is a blind-biased-beautiful_music-hater. plain & simple
and for every person out there who feels rock music is evil, u need to open their eyes wide shut & listen.
Well I agree that sometimes some rock groups can b evil-looking & all that but which do u prefer, some1 that tells you "This is evil O! Run" or some1 that gets u to bob your head to a cool song with amazing beats and 3-months later you find out he's talking about some satanic free mason mumbo-jumbo
Take 1. [R'n'B] Your lovable Chris Brown wasn't talkin abt som chic wen he sang "fallen angel". Listen to it again and think. slowly. Satan people, yes he's a satanist. Hmmm, do I sense some disturbance
Take 2. Disturbia, (by d name gannn, u'll already suspect it) now listen to d lyrics
Take 3. Jay-Z, Hova, Jay Hova, Jehova, Jehova of Rap (@ least dat is what he calls himself)  Cry
Take 4. Run this town. I'm sure itwill become a Free mason-theme song
and oh so many other songs u'll never believe actually are!

finally in my own view Rock Rocks

How the heck can a genre be satanic for crying out loud? Isn't it usually the lyrics and concept of the song that determines this, regardless of the genre? After all, there is Christian Rock isn't there?
