Seeing Manson in Missoula Mt can't wait!

dont get your hopes up too much.

From the reviews my mates gave him at Download festival....it doesnt sound promising.

[CheapJon]

I saw him 4-5 weeks ago, it was better then i expected it to be  have fun!

Jesus christ how bad the new album can be.
It takes one coked up space cowboy to remain unembarrassed through  releasing/performing something that pathetic.

MM's  inner meta zen journey of an artist  keeps going in very wrong direction

From

"she's made of hair and bone and little teeth
and things I cannot speak
she comes on like a crippled plaything
spine is just a string
I wrapped our love in all this foil
silver-tight like spider legs
I never wanted it to ever spoil
but flies will lay their eggs


to

"We're from america,
we're from america,
where they let you cum on there faces
We're from america,
we're from america,
we speak american"

RAMSTEIN of all bands came up with that very same song some 5 years back. Only difference being that their lyrics were muuch more clever

Seriously!! What the fuck happened?
He used to be very thought provoking, funny and clever son g writer through  90's.  Even GAOG, albeit being utter shit, was covered with brilliant(if pointless) word plays and uhh anecdotes or whatnot.

MM has been sucking for so long that there now exists an entire generation of mall goths who only know this embarrassing satire of the shadow of the shadow of the sharp man that once  was.
Somebody should begin arranging some kind of educational theme park visits to ACSS&Mechanical animals -era.

Is it Holywood bad?

Is it Holywood bad?

Tsk, Holy Wood ain't that bad at all!Uh.. but if that is your personal "MM starts sucking here!"-point then stay the hell away from everything that has been released after it:p

There are some cool songs on Holywood, but 19 songs about Columbine is a bit much at times.

[LeftToDecay]

Ehhhh I think it is mostly abouyt martyrdom with a twist, rather than columbia. I think JFK (maybe even John Lennon) are much more present through the album than anyone from the columbia event.

[AxlsMainMan]

The songs really aren't terribly memorable though whereas Antichrist Superstar and Mechanical Animals are both classics.

Too many of the riffs sound like Korn/Limp Bizkit rehash.

rammstein ripped of a swedish band called the sounds with that "amerika" song

Manson is for losers and people dissillusioned with life

 

Ever thought about that idea that people can like his voice, music and production?

[LeftToDecay]

Does anyne know what exactly happeed with Heirophant/MansonUsa?
It used to be such a great community. Late this spring, it got shitcanned out of the blue.
The overall quality of conversation going on in the messageboard there was incredibly high.  Say what you will about past/present Manson fans but atleast they know very well how to keep a forum interesting

Apprarently Manson didn't appreciate some 70% of his fanbase hating and ridiculing both the new album and the current live act. Some bullshit seize and desist later Heirophant was no more.

YOU SHOULD ALWAYS SUPPORT YOUR IDOL DAMNIT

YOU SHOULD ALWAYS SUPPORT YOUR IDOL DAMNIT

I sense some sarcasm there.


But at the end of the day, bands break up etc.

So either you enjoy what you have while it lasts, or you spend time ridiculing it and then when/if it ends, you start longing back to those days.

This goes for most bands/artists.

Some of the so called fans are so afraid of being labeled mindless asskissers that they spend more time finding faults in everything than actually enjoying shit.

Then things stop and they don't know what to feel. Obviously upset because they're not getting new tours, albums, videos, interviews or whatever to digest.

But you kept tearing down all the above things when they were happening and then you're upset when they're not given to you.... Ironic.

the new manson album is not bad at all. it's very slow, but that doesn't mean bad. the live show is a little drawn out because of the slowness of the songs, thats a tuff gig for him. playing with slayer is not the easiest gig, especially when they play before you.

[crow316]

Im actually enjoying this album more than anything he has done since Animals.   Devour and Edge of the World are really good songs.  I dont get the hate...

[norway]

Me neither.

One of his really good albums, a more mainstream structure with the classical MM production and voice-filtering.

[mrlee]

to me. He set a bar.

In my honest opinion, a very high bar with Mechanical Animals.  He never achieved that again.

But that being said. Everyone hates Golden Age, but i really enjoy the heavy industrial metal feel the album has on it.

Holywood is ok, but like someone said, drags out a bit.

[CheapJon]

it seems that i'll see manson again in november

[Gunner80]

God Manson has lost it live totally. Will not be going to anymore of his shows. He was acting like a little bitch up on stage kept throwing his mic down and storming off stage.

[AxlsMainMan]

Was he on something or is this now a regular thing?
