Look at me be the pasty-skinned spawn of Ziggy Stardust and Gene "The Demon" Simmons!

Look at me as I scare the Bible Belt of America senseless with my one white eye, face make-up and S&M gear from hell!

Look at my ooky and oh-so-freaky antics on stage and video!

Look at me, damn it!

View all The Golden Age of Grotesque reviews
Description: Marilyn Manson's The Golden Age of Grotesque was inspired, in part at least, by the seamy underside of Weimar Berlin, circa 1930.

"Marilyn Manson is a very hard individual to really understand. You have to really dig into his work before calling him an untalented hack.

There is a lot of great lyrical material on all 3 of those albums. Some how some way, Manson hit a brick wall in creativity in the mid 2000's.

"This album is essentially why I gave up on Marilyn Manson. Whatever unique gimmick he had to grab your attention, whatever juice he had that made you want to punch someone as a teenager, whatever musicians he had around him, here is where he completely lost it for me. This is also where Manson finally started to lose his vocal chords. All that screaming he did on Antichrist Superstar, he still has it here, but you can hear where they are diminishing. Now when he screams it sound so fucking horr"

Yes, we're looking at you (kinda hard not to you albino drama queen!), that's never been the problem...no, our problem has always been the same: what about your music?

Yes, Marilyn Manson has no doubt mastered the art shocking the lemmings with his appearance and goth schtick but when it comes down to his music he's anything but shocking. Seriously, take away the outside crap and reduce him to just being a recording artist and all you've really got is a guy who” read more
