A question for Mansonites:

i have never encountered a tougher questions, for me i count Antichrist Superstar, Mechanical Animals, Holy Wood and the Golden Age of Grotesque, all equal top, followed by Portrait of an American Family and then below that is Remix & Repent and Smells Like Children, as far as singles go Disposable Teens is the best ever... A lot of Manson "fans" like to say Antichrist Superstar is Manson at his best and Golden Age was not Manson, which is utter bullshit, it is DIFFERENT Manson i guess its hard to distinguish between those top 4 because they are such different sounds and themes, the definitive Manson is due out late this year, when his best of album will descend from the heavens and enlighten us all

OK, thanks mate. Reason for asking is that my music collection is totally devoid of Manson and I am contemplating correcting that. I've heard quite a bit of his stuff which sounds really good, but you know how you can never remember the names of tracks and such like.

Plus there's that "record shop amnesia" where you can go in with a specific title that you want to buy but as soon as you look at the rack you forget completely what it was.

Will have a go at those as mp3s and see what's what. Thanks again.

yeah well i guess i did narrow it down to 4 out of 5 main albums and all i get is a thanks
yeah and his music just keeps on getting better and better as you listen to it, ill just list a few of the "big" songs off each album for you
ANTICHRIST SUPERSTAR
1. Irresponsible Hate Anthem live version
2. The Beautiful People
12. Antichrist Superstar (a classic manson song, you just have to scream REPENT! along with manson )
15. The Reflecting God (awesome guitars by Trent Reznor)
16. Man that you Fear (not really a main song but its one of his best quieter songs)

Mechanical Animals
2. The Dope Show (it'll ****ING BLOW YOUR MIND )
4. Rock is Dead (song at the end of the Matrix)
9. I dont like the drugs (but the drugs like me)-funky as they come
13. Last Day on Earth (another great quiet song)

Holy Wood
2. the Love Song (do YOU love your Guns, God and Govt?)
3. the Fight Song
4. Disposable Teens
10. The Nobodies (such a simple beat)
11. The Death Song (superior to 2&3)
also squeeze in Lamb of God, Coma Black, King Kill 33 and Count to 6 and Die...

The Golden Age of Grotesque
2. This is the new **** (second matrix)
3. mOBSCENE (and its so ****ing obscene)
4. Doll Dagga Buzz Buzz Ziggety Zag
6. the Golden Age of Grotesque (vastly different from all other manson, and still so good)
7. (s)AINT
actually if you find anything from Golden Age listen to it

Which Album do you like best?

I only have one, bought it in Ireland. Not sure which it is, though.

[Lalaith_Elf]

I would go with The Golden Age of Grotesque it's brilliant!

I wanted to have it so badly but ach - permanent lack of money - and I still don't have it.

[Lalaith_Elf]

I borrowed it off a mate for about 6months (much to her disgust) and then copied it - I never have enough money. But I strongly recomend it!

[Millane]

aha after months of speculation of what will be on Marilyn Manson's best of album i need not speculate anymore. The tracklisting i had down pat, and the dvd with all his filmclips is done (except theres no Tainted Love filmclip listed? and a filmclip called Autopsy is, which ive never heard of) and i had thought the name of the best of was going to be Songs of Golgotha, but it is actually Lest We Forget... and here is the cover art aswell
Cover Art - Lest we forget
sorry i think its a bit to big to put here

i've pretty recently started listening to hids stuff and he's really awesome! so yes, millane, musical taste really does evolve for the better!


my fav album thus far is holy wood

[Lotesse]

Marilyn Manson is a modern music genius artist, no doubt about that. Genius. Crazy creative. He sure shakes people up, doesn't he? Keeps the music scene interesting and edgy.

i listened to most of his music to death a fair while ago... that said i watched the dope show video the other day, without a doubt one of the best film clips ever made...
Mechanical Animals is definately his best.
very much anticipating his new film Phantasmagoria: the visions of lewis carrol...
