Marilyn Manson

Antichrist Superstar

This Is The Most Well Thought Out Recorded Album Yet

Review Score:

(10/10)
One may see Marilyn Manson as that "weird" guy, or that "goth" guy, however, he is probably the most intelligent, well-spoken entertainers in the music industry. His triple-lp set of a sharply thought out Trilogy about a boy by the name of Adam who is born with a sharp mind but who's infatuation with rebellion and "changing the world" results in his downfall. All three discs, "Antichrist Superstar" "Mechanical Animals" and "Holy Wood" include ( NOT IN ORDER, and please note that the order in which events do take place can be found on this website: http://chiburi.home.mindspring.com/ac_trilogy/ ) this story.

Onto the music side. Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails, Dave "Rave" Ogilvie, MW Gacy, Twiggy Ramirez are partly responsible for the impossibly perfect sound of this album. Marilyn Manson himself produced masses of noises heard here. This album took 9 months to produce, although it seems like something like this would take 10-100 years. Although not as abstract as Nine Inch Nail's masterpiece "THE FRAGILE," this album sits high at the top of the best audio recordings created. This album is perfect, and although I just recently began listening to him again, I've been saying this for 8 years now.
