Possibly my favorite of all of them.

I agree, sadly. I absolutely adore The concept trilogy, but don't care for anything else.


Likewise Big smile. But man... he's just trying too hard these days.


Lyrically, he is stagnating. When his nonconformist and violent lyrics aren't conceptual, it falls flat and feels like no more than a shtick. I also feel he lost his musically glammy edge in favor of a bland industrial metal. Trying too hard to fit into the mold he created for himself with his peak albums.

Probably one of my least favorite (I use this term loosely) artists of all time. Never saw the big deal.

I have just been spending some time listening to some of my favorite Manson albums, and was wondering what the community here thinks of him. Feel free to express any feelings you have.

I quite like him for his music, and the conceptual nature of it. Especially Holy Wood, Mechanical Animals, and Antichrist Superstar. Dark and gothic, conceptual and brooding. these are things I love in music.

I try to separate the music from the image, and take the lyrics in an almost Rock Opera mindset.
