Huh. Seems perfectly fine. He’s not trying to be amazing but I don’t think that’s the point-just a moderately low-key take on Weiland’s sound, for a mellowed out, dad rock version of STP. I say let them have their fun with it.
Beyond his continued preference to further play out his decaying Peter Pan shtick, bands like this are the reason that I can’t even begin to have any interest in Marilyn Manson any longer.
I would imagine it's not just her audience but the infrastructure she's built up that supports the business aspects of her operation. There's got to be at least some of that shit in the framework.
Thank you. I wasn't sure how to say this...even with the pre-millenial notoriety of Marilyn Manson, I had this growing opinion that Twiggy had generally come out of all the bullshit okay.
Not so much, it would appear.
Exactly. As soon as I read the article title I was like, 'of COURSE that happened' but it would've been nice if that wasn't the case.
Either way I'm glad to see the continuing fallout on these entrenched abusers taking place.
Every time I read about how supposedly awesome Rage Against the Machine were, all I can remember is the college meatheads who were into the aggression of the music and enjoyed beating the shit out of people to it, especially if they thought they had found a gay.
That honestly wasn't as bad as I feared it might be. If anything, it seemed like Manson was ready to go for at least another hour and figure out a way to turn it into crashing on Maron's couch.
I miss the time when Manson knew how to use makeup. And costumes. And set design. And included band members in his videos. And make things not so half-baked.
I've reached the point where I've come full circle and forgotten Bryan Adams existed, and thought that was a really, really weird picture of Ryan Adams.
Based on absolutely no evidence, I'm guessing that 'The Idea of You' was the original pick. It's just a very well-crafted, strong song from the same period lacking almost all the things David Lynch apparently wanted to show up in TNIN's Roadhouse song.
Pretty much. The last thing I liked was the Golden Age of Grotesque, which implied a sort of aristocratic opulent medicine show kind of vibe, which...felt right, to me, for a way for Manson to age gracefully.
All this goofy shit with prop guns and neck paint is not what I want out of Manson. Wake me up when he releases a music video with other band members in it again.
Everyone's playing the game. Reznor seems to think that openly talking about playing the game somehow nullifies the fact that he is into it just like everyone else.
Like it was no small accident Nine Inch Nails released Ghosts I-IV before going all in on scoring movies.
I seem to recall Trent even encouraged fans to make short youtube videos of visuals to complement the tracks, which he no doubt ended up using to shop around as evidence of how his music could be used to heighten a scene.
