Marilyn Manson

in addition, thought i just had.

Skold played guitar for manson now, so why couldnt he have stayed on gutiar, twiggy on bass as usual.

Then youd get a ultra ownage album?

thats actually a good point..... i dont know why skold had to leave....

and, about Antichrist Superstar, i didnt like it much either for the longest time, until it just clicked. i still think its a TAD overrated but its a great album. i def. prefer Mechanical Animals over it tho, thats Mansons crowning achievement in my opinion.

maybe manson thought 3 main song writers was a crowd though? Thats also came into my head

Twiggy is back! This is really great news. Eat Me Drink Me has grown on me to the point that I now love the album.

[Malcolm]

Taking a page from the Van Halen playbook, it was announced yesterday that Marilyn Manson and longtime collaborator guitarist Twiggy Ramirez would reunite for Manson?s Eat Me, Drink Me tour. Rock Daily talked to Manson hours after the announcement, and he shared the story behind their reunion. Though the two had already re-connected during a chance meeting on the streets of Los Angeles, it was Manson witnessing another reunion that inspired him to invite Twiggy back. ?The turning point for me was when I went to see Led Zeppelin?s reunion show, and I saw Jimmy Page and Robert Plant look at each other for a moment, and they probably said, ?Holy shit, we wrote ?Stairway To Heaven.'? I wanted that look again,? Manson explains. ?I want to look at Twiggy and go ?Holy shit, we wrote ?The Beautiful People.? I called him and I said ?Let?s go do this.?? Plus, the duo had some unfinished business. ?We started music together because we wanted to bring about the apocalypse, and we realized we didn?t finish,? Manson says. ?The world could suffer much more if we were together again, and we really wanted to bring back the suffering.?

With Twiggy back in the fold after departing over creative differences after 2000?s Holy Wood, how would this effect Manson?s ?Rape of the World? tour, set to launch in a week? ?We?re still gonna play some new songs,? says Manson, ?but I think we?re excited to play some stuff that we haven?t done in a long time. I don?t think it ever felt as right without him.?

While Manson is eager to return to working on his film Phantasmagoria: The Visions of Lewis Carroll, he promises that his reunion with Twiggy will eventually result in a new album. ?The concept originally of he and I getting back together was ?Let?s write some music together,? ? says Manson. ?But life?s too short, and this has to happen now because we couldn?t stand not being on stage with each other, and wouldn?t want to wait until we made another record to tour. So this tour will spawn another record, one hundred percent.?

dontdiscredit my background knowledge on those works or my ability to dissect them as anything but an overzealous fanboy, which I'm not.

Yeah sorry, it came out sounding more personal than it was supposed to be, the whole matrix- card thing. temptation to say it was just too high to resist! Let's have sex agree to diagree on GAOG and and not even touch the subject of EMDM and be close personal friends forever? <3 <3 <3


Meathead has made absolutely freaking hillarious cartoon describing, in VERY accurate fashion, what happened with Twiggy. Out of all(mostly brilliant) works of him, this would have to be one of the better ones.

It has Manson, Trent,  - - - >Axl Rose < - - - , Roger Waters, Slash, Zeppelin..it has !EVERYTHING!.

Yes. Let's have sex be close, personal friends forever Besides, that is one of Meathead's best animations ... ever.

Skold is a top class producer and songwriter and probably Manson's best guitarist to date (for Manson ... John 5 is the more talented player).

Be that as it may..every single album since Skold came in and Twigs left has been medioce at best. When it comes  to EMDM, by mediocre I mean utter shit.
So yay, Twiggy returning just might give Manson the kick in the ass he needs.

Loved EMDM...very stripped down and personal and, as always, full of good hooks. Still, glad Twiggy is back.

[GeraldFord]

Ok, two things...

(1) What is the "The Matrix Reloaded card"?

(2) Glad to see some people giving props to EMDM and MA, but I really think his best, most underrated work is HolyWood. It was MM best lineup, with both John 5 and Twiggy on board. It just rocks like a bastard....

Saw the opening show of the new tour last night in Orlando. I wouldnt consider myself a fan but I was impressed with how good the show was. I would definitely see him again.

1 The Beautiful People
19) AntiChrist Superstar

[von]

Fucking stellar setlist A good dose of MA, plus "Rock 'n' Roll Nigger" and "Little Horn" Maybe I'm more glad Twiggy's back than I first realized.

[Gunner80]

I sure hope they hit Denver again this year. Maybe the new record will be out before summer ends. I can't fucking wait to see this line up.

[Kujo]

By the way, in response to an earlier post, I was mainly going to the show to see Ours. Very good band, great material. 99% of the crowd in Orlando wanted nothing to do with them and were very vocal in letting them know it throughout the entire set.

[GnFnR87]
