The Beaver Meat Cleaver Beat (sometimes incorrectly referred to as The Meat Beat Cleaver Beat) is a cassette by Marilyn Manson and the Spooky Kids. Only a few copies were allegedly ever made, and the cassette was never sold; it was given away for promotional purposes.
The Beaver Meat cassette replaced The Raw Boned Psalms given away earlier in 1990, and contains the same tracks along with others recorded shortly afterward. Side "B" of the cassette contains a radio interview of the band conducted by Scott David in March 1990 for WKXP 88.5, along with two songs performed live on-air.

Like most early Marilyn Manson recordings, The Beaver Meat Cleaver Beat came in a cassette case with photocopied sleeve artwork. The interior of the fold-out insert featured an altered photograph of Charles Manson with the body of a woman, surrounded by 1960s-style clip art: flowers, butterflies, praying hands, the American flag, etc. The front cover featured clip art handguns arranged to resemble a butterfly. The Beaver Meat Cleaver Beat was considered a "phantom" release, with even Daisy Berkowitz claiming in a 1999 interview not to recognize its title. In 1997 an original cassette copy, owned by Miami's alternative club DJ Hypno5ive -- the first copy discovered to exist -- was sold in an online auction. It was purchased by an anonymous collector in Japan, allegedly for over $1000.
