    I'm actually listening to Antichrist Superstar right now, and last night I listened to Mechanical Animals, and I'd had Holywood in my car last week. I can definately see the story coming out, it's an excellent concept behind the three albums. All in all I'd have to say the entire Tryptich is his best work (that being Holywood, Mechanial Animals, and Antichrist Superstar in that order). Apparently, his new album is supposed to go back to that sound and be very heavy and angry. I'm pumped!!

    Also, I heard a rumor that James Iha was going to be his new touring guitarist. Anyone else heard this?

  • Since Manson kicked John5 off guitars, I haven't listened to him at all. No real reason, i'm sure they're new shit is good too, just haven't taken the time.

    Well as I've previously stated, I think Tim Skold is the best guitarist he's had with him. Listen to "Putting Holes in Happiness," "Just a Car Crash Away," and "Evidence" off of "Eat Me, Drink Me." Lots of shredding, and lots of Neil Young influence.

    i'm a casual MM fan but i luv "Mechanical Animals". i don't know how much coke he did for that one or if Michael Beinhorn's production enhanced it but that disc is killer.

    I have pretty much seen Manson on each tour. His newer stuff is OK but once you see him live....that is where he lives. He is an amazing performer.

    Nobodies is my fav song.

    Just saw him this year......

    Does anyone have the Remixes and Repent album? I haven't seen it around but didn't want to get it if it sucked. I do have a two disc album called "White Trash" and another album of just rarities that I found online that has a version of Eye that he did with the Smashing Pumpkins. Highly recommended!!!

    And just out of curiosity, does anyone know what MM has said about Pearl Jam or if he's said anything at all about them?

    I know he likes Rage Against the Machine and absolutely hates My Chemical Romance (which I think is hilarious)

    He's cool, although weird. I saw him New Year's Eve in 1998 I think the year was. Comes out looking like Hitler...wild!

    i use to have it but got rid of it (it was crapping up my collection). it wasn't anything special... live version of Antichrist Superstar, acoustic version of Man That You Fear (sounded pretty much the same) and i think there was one other live song... Dried Up, Tied and Dead to the World maybe... there was the Horrible People remix (shit) and a Tourniquet remix that was awesome. only thing is, it was an edited version. get the Tourniquet single for the 7 minute version.. much much better. at the end Manson keeps repeating the line "you never ever believed in me/you never ever believed."

    Pumpkins "Eye" and Manson's "Apple of Sodom" along w/ "I Put A Spell On You" were from the Lost Highway soundtrack (check out Reznor's "Driver Down"!!). i use to have all those old bsides from all the singles and soundtracks but most of them are long gone. only things i still have are "Suicide Is Painless", "Five To One", "Golden Years", "Working Class Hero", "Coma White" acoustic, "Down In The Park", "Apple of Sodom"... i think that's it.
    there's some releases out there of oldass Spooky Kids recordings. never heard the physical releases, just stuff on bootlegs but the song "White Knuckles" is fucking awesome. "Thingmaker" was okay too if i remember... shit, it's been so long!

    I used to like Nobodies a few years ago... apart from that not into him. Was funny hearing Ed saying "beautiful people" in a MM type way when they played in Austria as MM playing the other stage.

    I'm also excited for his new movie as well. But I'm wanting him to release the book "Holy Wood" first.

    Great artist...definitely need to see him live. I've heard nothing but great things about his show.

    My favorite thing about him might be his covering abilities actually...I Put A Spell On You, Sweet Dreams, Rock n' Roll Nigger, etc. etc. All wonderfully done.

    Allegedly this album is going back to his older sound.

    Yes, judging from the single, it is. It's not the greatest song, but I definitely immediately thought, oh, he's gone old school. :)

    This reminds me.... where in the fuck are all the vinyl reissues Marilyn Manson??? :look_at_the_time: I don't have $400 - $500 for an original Antichrist Superstar or Mechanical Animals!

    Wish that cocksucker was touring around me. A couple years I got stuck behind his tour bus pulling into the Myrtle Beach HOB. Was tempted to hang out and try to get a peek.

    I don't mind the new song, and I may be on my own here, but thought his last album, The Pale Emperor, was excellent. Easily one of my fav albums of 2015. I really like his older stuff too, but thought Pale Emperor was a great sound
