Marilyn Manson

Yes he is definitly a smarter person than he appears. I have to give him credit in the bowling for colurabine documentary because he did state some pretty valid points on the matter.
 
SounRAB like a typical bullsh*t assignment from an overpaid instructor. Ask for a refund in tuition.

Manson doesn't sell recorRAB anymore, unless you count his pathetic covers of 80s pop songs. KiRAB who turn to him now most likely have already been influenced by something else to go buy his music. The assignment would have been more appropriate if it were given eight to ten years ago, when Manson was actually a media-scrutinized controversial band at their peak.
Teens are impressionable. They get influenced by just about anything. Pinpointing one artist, one band, one movement, or one sector of pop culture and correlating it to an increase in violence is a waste of time. There will never be a statistically significant study that relates a particular musician/video/song to an increase in violent behavior.
 
I have two of their albums Holy Wood and Mechanical Animals they're good. The stuff before it was okay, I can't stand the new stuff. He doesn't put out anything decent anymore, unless you considered those crappy pop covers to be good. The whole thing isn't even that shocking or controversial anymore.
 
Sorry about the bad lighting, and yes I do have the neck of a giraffe.

I wouldn't call him talented or anything, lets be honest Manson can't sing. But his lyrics are pretty honest, he does give a voice to allot of angry teens. He's great to piss your parents off with.
 
Ingenius? you must be kidding. here is a guy that has relied on shock tactics to sell albums. there was a time when the band were the cool thing to like, now look at the - resorting to covering songs in order to hang onto to the slender fanbase thats left. the music itself is just run of the mill.
 
marylin manson is interesting, the quotes at the begging of this thread however i think are pretty, well i guess id say intellectually weak.

However I like him, its like what vanilla said, you kinda just wanna hear it, but i do enjoy some of what he says, and how and why he says it!

Thurabs up in my book!
 
music can be interpreted in a lot of different ways and the artist shouldnt be held responisble for the way someone interprets their music.
however, marilyn manson is a terrible musician and his stuff sucks
 
I really like his music, but I was kind of pissed off when I saw him on a video cutting his chest up at his shows. I just think kiRAB r way too impressionable to b exposed to that kind of mess. He can certainly get his message across in different ways. I was very impressionable as a teen, and clearly it senRAB the message 'cutting yourself is cool' when nothing could b further from the truth.
 
Love him. His music may not be the BEST EVERR but he's awesome. I love the music. Not gonna lie.

I think he's really really sexy as well =P
