Marilyn Manson ist eine US-amerikanische Rockband, die 1989 von der namengebenden Sängerin Marilyn Manson und dem Gitarristen Daisy Berkowitz in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, gegründet wurde. Ursprünglich Marilyn Manson & the Spooky Kids erlangten sie mit ihren Live-Theateraufführungen Anfang der 1990er Jahre einen lokalen Kult in Südflorida. 1993 waren sie der erste Akt, der bei Trent Reznors Nothing Records unterzeichnet wurde. Bis 1996 wurde der Name jedes Mitglieds durch Kombination des Vornamens eines weiblichen Geschlechtssymbols und des Nachnamens eines Serienmörders, beispielsweise Marilyn Monroe und Charles Manson, gebildet. Ihre Besetzung hat sich zwischen vielen Albumveröffentlichungen geändert. Die derzeitigen Mitglieder von Marilyn Manson sind der gleichnamige Leadsänger (das einzige verbleibende Originalmitglied), der Gitarrist Tyler Bates und der Schlagzeuger Gil Sharone.
In der Vergangenheit kleideten sich Bandmitglieder in ausgefallenem Make-up und Kostümen und verwickelten sich absichtlich sowohl auf der Bühne als auch auf der Bühne. Ihre Texte wurden häufig wegen ihrer antireligiösen Gefühle und ihrer Hinweise auf Sex, Gewalt und Drogen kritisiert, während ihre Live-Auftritte häufig als beleidigend und obszön bezeichnet wurden. Bei mehreren Anlässen führten Proteste und Petitionen dazu, dass die Gruppe nicht mehr aufgeführt wurde. Mindestens drei US-Bundesstaaten verabschiedeten ein Gesetz, das die Gruppe daran hinderte, an staatlichen Veranstaltungsorten aufzutreten. Sie veröffentlichten eine Reihe von Alben, die Platin verkauften, darunter Antichrist Superstar (1996) und Mechanical Animals (1998). Diese Alben brachten Marilyn Manson zusammen mit ihren hochstilisierten Musikvideos und weltweiten Tourneen in der Öffentlichkeit Anerkennung. 1999 beschuldigten die Medien die Band fälschlicherweise, die Täter des Columbine-Massakers beeinflusst zu haben.
Als diese Kontroverse im Laufe der 2000er Jahre nachließ, begann auch die Popularität der Band im Mainstream. Trotzdem bezeichnete Jon Wiederhorn von MTV im Juni 2003 Marilyn Manson als "den einzigen wahren Künstler heute". [1] Marilyn Manson wird weithin als eine der ikonischsten und umstrittensten Figuren der Heavy Metal-Musik angesehen. Die Band und ihr Sänger beeinflussten zahlreiche andere Gruppen und Musiker, sowohl in Metal-Acts als auch in der weiteren Populärkultur. VH1 stufte Marilyn Manson auf den 100 Great Artists of Hard Rock als die 78. beste Rockband ein. Sie wurden im Jahr 2000 in die Kerrang! Hall of Fame aufgenommen und wurden für vier Grammy Awards nominiert. In den USA hat die Band acht ihrer Veröffentlichungen in den Top Ten gesehen, darunter zwei Nummer-Eins-Alben. Marilyn Manson hat weltweit über 50 Millionen Platten verkauft.
Geschichte [ edit ]
Formation und The Spooky Kids (1989–92) [
1989 wurde Brian Warner ein College-Student, der auf einen Abschluss in Journalismus am Broward College hinarbeitet und Erfahrungen sammelt, indem er Musikartikel für das Lifestyle-Magazin South Florida schrieb 25. Parallel [3] In dieser Funktion traf er mehrere der Musiker, mit denen seine eigene Band später verglichen werden sollte, darunter My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult und Trent Reznor von Nine Inch Nails. [4] In diesem Dezember lernte er Scott Putesky kennen, der vorschlug, die beiden zusammen eine Band zu bilden, nachdem er einige Texte und Gedichte gelesen hatte, die Putesky geschrieben hatte, der der Sänger der vorgeschlagenen Band sein wollte. [5] [6] Warner, Gitarrist Putesky und Bassist Brian Tutunick nahmen 1990 als Marilyn Manson & the Spooky Kids ihr erstes Demoband auf und übernahmen die Künstlernamen Marilyn Manson, Daisy Berkowitz bzw. Olivia Newton Bundy. [8] Bundy verließ die Band kurz darauf und wurde durch Gidget Gein, geb. Brad Stewart, ersetzt. [9] Später wurde sie von Stephen Bier, der sich Madonna Wayne Gacy nannte, am Keyboard gesungen. [11] 1991 schloss sich der Schlagzeuger Fred Streithorst der Band unter dem Namen Sara Lee Lucas an. [13]
Die von jedem Mitglied angenommenen Künstlernamen waren repräsentativ für ein Konzept, das die Band als zentral betrachtet: die Dichotomie von Gut und Gut das Böse und die Existenz beider zusammen in jedem Ganzen. "Marilyn Monroe hatte eine dunkle Seite", erklärte Manson in seiner Autobiografie. "So wie Charles Manson eine gute, intelligente Seite hat." In den nächsten sechs Jahren nahmen alle Mitglieder der Band Namen an, die den Vornamen eines weiblichen Geschlechtssymbols und den Nachnamen eines Serienmörders kombinierten. [15] Bilder von Monroe und Manson sowie von anderen berühmten und berüchtigten Persönlichkeiten waren in den frühen Werbematerialien der Band üblich.
Die Popularität der Spooky Kids in der Region wuchs rasch [16] und da von den hochvisuellen Konzerten der Band, die auf Performance-Art bezogen waren und viele Schocktechniken verwendeten, wie "nackte Frauen, die an ein Kreuz genagelt wurden, ein Kind in einem Käfig oder blutige Tierkörperteile." [17] Band Mitglieder, die verschiedenartig in Frauenkleidern oder bizarren Kostümen aufgeführt wurden; und mangels eines professionellen Pyrotechnikers würden sie ihre eigenen Requisiten in Brand setzen. [16] Die Band stellte diese Theaterstücke mit Elementen aus ihrer Jugend in Beziehung: Figuren des 70er und 80er Jahre Kinderfernsehens machten regelmäßige, oft grotesk veränderte Auftritte auf Bandfliegern und Newslettern und wurden häufig in ihrer Musik eingespielt. Sie setzten fort und veröffentlichten Kassetten, die 1992 ihren Namen auf Marilyn Manson verkürzten, bis sie im Sommer 1993 auf Reznor aufmerksam wurden, der gerade sein eigenes Label, Nothing Records, gegründet hatte. [19] [19]

Reznor bot der Band einen Vertrag mit dem Label sowie einen Eröffnungs-Slot für Nine Inch Nails auf ihrer kommenden "Self Destruct Tour". 19460538] Nachdem sie beide Angebote angenommen hatten, begannen im Juli 1993 mit dem Swans-Produzenten Roli Mosimann in den Criteria Studios in Miami, Florida, Aufnahmesessions für ihr Debüt-Studioalbum. Die erste Version ihres Debüts mit dem Titel The Manson Family Album wurde mit einer Auswahl neuer Songs zusammen mit Material aus ihrem Spooky-Kids-Repertoire bis Ende des Monats fertiggestellt. Es wurde jedoch nicht gut angenommen. [21] Zusammen mit Reznor kritisierten die Bandmitglieder Mosimanns Produktion als flach, leblos und wenig repräsentativ für die Live-Auftritte der Band. Zur gleichen Zeit verlor Gidget Gein die Kontrolle über seine Heroinsucht. [21] Bevor das Album überarbeitet wurde, spielte die Band zwei Shows in Florida unter dem Namen Mrs. Scabtree. Diese Band bestand aus Manson am Schlagzeug, Gacy am Keyboard, Berkowitz an der Gitarre und Jessicka von Jack Off Jill, die Gesangsdiensten mit der Jeordie White von Miami Thrashband Amboog-a-Lard teilten. Vier weitere lokale Musiker, die Bassisten Mark Dubin von Schwester Venus und Patrick Joyce von The Itch, der Gitarrist Miles Hie und die Violinistin Mary Karlzen, waren daran beteiligt. [23] [24]
Reznor stimmte zu Überarbeitung der Produktion von The Manson Family Album im Oktober 1993 in den Record Plant Studios in Los Angeles. Gein, der nach seiner vierten Überdosis Heroin ins Krankenhaus eingeliefert worden war, wurde nicht zur Teilnahme eingeladen und wurde kurz darauf von der Band entlassen, die durch White von Amboog-a-Lard ersetzt wurde, der den Pseudonym Twiggy Ramirez übernahm [9] ] [16] Nach sieben Wochen Mischen, Re-Recording und Remixing wurde das Album - nunmehr Portrait of a American Family - dem Nothing-Mutterlabel Interscope vorgestellt. [21] Das Album wurde am 19. Juli 1994 veröffentlicht und erreichte bei Nummer fünfundvierzig den Stand von Billboard 'Top Heatseekers' [19454]. [1945958] Die erste US-amerikanische Headliner-Tournee begann im Dezember 1994 mit der Eröffnung von Jack Off Jill. [28] Während des Stintings der Band auf der Tour durch Nine Inch Nails lernte Manson den Gründer von Church of Satan, Dr. Anton LaVey, kennen. LaVey verlieh Manson den Titel "Reverend" - eine Person, die von der Kirche verehrt wird, und nicht notwendigerweise eine Person, die ihr Leben der Predigt der Religion an andere widmet, wie bei einem Priester oder Prediger. Manson würde diesen Titel in den Liner Notes des folgenden Albums der Band verwenden und sich selbst als "Reverend Marilyn Manson" nennen. [30]
Im März 1995 begann die Band mit einer zweimonatigen Tour Zeit mit Monster Voodoo Machine als Unterstützung. [31] Dies wäre die letzte Tour des Schlagzeugers Sara Lee Lucas mit der Band. [13] Kenneth Wilson, besser bekannt unter seinem Künstlernamen Ginger Fish, schloss sich der Gruppe an, bevor sie mit den Rockbands Danzig und Korn auf Tour gingen. Die Band zog dann in die neue Heimat der Nothing Studios in New Orleans um, um mit der Arbeit an Remixen und B-Seiten für Portrait '' s dritte Single, "Dope Hat", zu beginnen, die ein von Musik inspiriertes Musikvideo veröffentlichte Die Bootsfahrt-Szene aus dem Film von 1971 Willy Wonka & die Schokoladenfabrik [34] Die geplante Single entwickelte sich schließlich zu einer stundenlangen EP mit dem Titel Smells Like Children . Die fünfzehn Tracks der EP mit Coverversionen, Remixen und Klangexperimenten enthielten auch die Version der Eurythmics "Sweet Dreams (Are Made from This)", [35] die sich als erster Hit herausstellen sollte. Das Musikvideo des Songs wurde auf MTV in starke Rotation versetzt, [36] im krassen Gegensatz zu dem "Dope Hat" -Video, das derselbe Kanal nur wenige Monate zuvor in den Late-Night-Airplay verbannt hatte. [37]
Antichrist Superstar (1996–97) [ edit
Dies ist möglicherweise die krankste Gruppe, die jemals von einer Mainstream-Plattenfirma befördert wurde.
Ehemaliger US-Senator Joe Lieberman [38]
Das zweite Studioalbum der Band, Antichrist Superstar wurde am 8. Oktober 1996 veröffentlicht. Es wurde in den Nothing Studios mit Reznor, Manson, Sean aufgenommen Beavan und ehemaliges Skinny Puppy-Mitglied und langjähriger Produzent Dave Ogilvie teilen sich die Co-Produktion; Mitglieder von Marilyn Manson und Nine Inch Nails nahmen an der Aufnahme teil. [39] Der Prozess der Entstehung des Albums war lang und schwierig, hervorgehoben durch Experimente, die den Schlafmangel und den fast konstanten Drogenkonsum betrafen, um eine gewalttätige und feindselige Umgebung zu schaffen, die dem Inhalt des Albums entspricht. In dieser Zeit war der Antagonismus zwischen den Bandmitgliedern hoch. Daisy Berkowitz, der Gründungsgitarrist der Band, verließ die Band während des Aufnahmevorgangs des Albums, wobei Twiggy einen Großteil der Gitarrenarbeit des Albums leistete. [40] Timothy Linton antwortete auf eine Anzeige, die Berkowitz 'Nachfolger suchte. Er würde eine enge Beziehung zu Madonna Wayne Gacy eingehen, die für die Aufnahme einer der wichtigsten Inspirationsquellen für das Album verantwortlich war: Kabbalah. Zim Zum brach mit der sechsjährigen Tradition, Bandmitglieder nach weiblichen Ikonen und Serienmördern zu benennen, als Lintons Künstlernamen. Es wurde aus dem lurianischen Kabbala-Konzept von Tzimtzum abgeleitet. [41] "The Beautiful People" wurde als Lead-Single des Albums veröffentlicht. Es gab genug Vorfreude auf Antichrist Superstar dass das Album auf Platz drei der Billboard 200 [42] mit einem Erstverkauf von 132.000 Exemplaren debütierte. ] [43] Manson erschien auch auf dem Cover von Rolling Stone der der Band 1997 die Auszeichnung 'Best New Artist' verlieh. [42] Es folgte das ganzjährige "Dead to the World Tour", die bisher längste und breiteste Tour der Band. In den USA erhielt die Band jedoch mehr Aufmerksamkeit als je zuvor und nicht alles war positiv. Während der Tournee fand die Band das Ziel einer Anhörung, die von zwei Parteien getragen wurde und unter der Leitung der konservativen Interessengruppe Empower America (heute FreedomWorks), des republikanischen Bildungsministers William Bennett und des demokratischen US-Senators Joseph Lieberman wenn überhaupt, Auswirkungen gewalttätiger Texte auf junge Zuhörer. [44] [45] Außerdem wurde fast jede Aufführung der Tour von religiösen Organisationen ausgewählt. [46]
Die Band veröffentlichte am 25. November 1997 ihre zweite EP Remix & Repent . Es enthielt neue Versionen der vier Singles von Antichrist Superstar ': "The Beautiful People", "Tourniquet", "Antichrist Superstar" und "Man That You Fear". [47] Im Februar 1998 veröffentlichte Manson seine Autobiographie Die lange harte Straße aus der Hölle [48] sowie ein Live-Video mit dem Titel Dead to the World . Es wurde auch bestätigt, dass Antichrist Superstar der erste Teil einer Konzeptalbum-Trilogie sein wird, die die Band ihr Triptychon nannte. [49] [50]
Mechanical Animals (1998–99) [ edit ]
Manson als Mechanical Animals " Antagonist," Omega "
Die Band veröffentlichte den zweiten Teil Triptychon, Mechanische Tiere am 15. September 1998. [51] Das Album, das von der Sängerin der Band mit Sean Beavan und Michael Beinhorn produziert wurde, [52] löste sich von der Industrial-Rock-Produktion ihres Vorgängers ab und wurde stark vom Glam-Rock der 1970er Jahre, vor allem von David Bowies 1974, beeinflusst Diamond Dogs [53] Billy Corgan diente der Band während der frühen Entwicklung des Albums als inoffizieller Berater. Nachdem Corgan ein paar Lieder für ihn gespielt hatte, riet er ihnen, "Dies ist definitiv die richtige Richtung", aber "den ganzen Weg damit zu gehen. Nennen Sie es nicht einfach", indem Sie auf Glam-Einflüsse Bezug nehmen. [49] Passend zu ihrem neuen Musikstil wurde die Band auch als glamouröses Rock-Outfit neu gestaltet, wobei der "verrottende Leichnam" der vorherigen Epoche [49] zugunsten einer eher für das Genre passenderen Kleidung außer Acht gelassen wurde. mit Leder, Plateaustiefeln und hell gefärbten Haaren. [49] Die Band zog auch von New Orleans nach Los Angeles, [49] während Zim Zum durch den Gitarristen John Lowery von 2wo ersetzt wurde. [54] der sich selbst als John 5. bezeichnete. [55] [56]
Interscopes Werbung für das Album war massiv, [57] mit dem Label, das enorme Werbetafeln der Blei aufstellte Sänger als androgynischer Außerirdischer sowohl am Times Square als auch am Sunset Strip. [58] Wiederholte Auftritte bei MTV und anderen Netzwerken trugen dazu bei, die Lead-Single "The Dope Show" des Albums auf Platz zwölf der Billboard-Mainstream-Rock-Charts voranzutreiben, [51] die bis jetzt die höchste Single der Band wurde. [59] Das Musikvideo des Songs wurde von den Kritikern hoch gelobt und gewann zwei Auszeichnungen bei den Billboard von 1945 Music Video Awards [60] sowie den Best Cinematography Award bei den MTV VMAs 1999; [61] während das Lied bei den 41. Annual Grammy Awards für die beste Hard Rock Performance nominiert wurde. [62] Das Album sollte als Nummer eins auf der Billboard 200 mit einem Umsatz von über 223.000 in der ersten Woche debütieren. [63]
Nach einer kurzen Werbekampagne stellte die Band ein auf der "Beautiful Monsters Tour" mit Hole. [64] Die Tour war problematisch, [65] und wurde durch den häufigen Austausch von und auf der Bühne zwischen Manson und Hole-Sänger Courtney Love beeinträchtigt. [66] Private Streitigkeiten traten auch wegen der finanziellen Arrangements der Tour auf, wobei Hole die meisten Produktionskosten von Manson unwissentlich finanzierte, die im Vergleich zu Holes unverhältnismäßig hoch waren. [67] Die Tour sollte siebenunddreißig Shows umfassen, die sich über einen Zeitraum von zwei Monaten erstrecken, [64] obwohl Hole nach nur neun der geplanten Termine verließ. Ein gebrochener Knöchel von Manson erzwang auch die Verschiebung der nächsten beiden Shows, [66] wobei der Rest der Tour in "Rock Is Dead" umbenannt wurde und Jack Off Jill und Nashville Pussy die Eröffnungsslots übernahmen. [68]
Die letzten vier Termine der Tour wurden aus Respekt für die Opfer des Massakers in Columbine High School abgesagt. [69] [70] [70] Die zweite Hälfte des Jahres 1999 und ein großer Teil des Jahres 2000 war eine Zeit der relativen Stille für die Band, die sich weigerte, an Interviews teilzunehmen und sich aus dem öffentlichen Leben zurückzuziehen. [71] Sie legten Pläne für ein geplantes Single- und Musikvideo für ihr Cover von AC / DCs "Highway to Hell" auf, das auf dem Soundtrack zu Detroit Rock City erschien. [72] Sie verbrachten diese Zeit in einem abgeschiedenen Studio in Death Valley, [73] [74] wobei nur das Live-Album The Last Tour auf der Erde in dieser Zeit erschien [75] Ein Studio-Outtake von Antichrist Superstar mit dem Titel "Erstaunliches Panorama der Endzeit" diente als einzige Single. [76]
Holy Wood (Im Schatten des Tals des Todes) (2000–01) [ edit ]
1999 war ein entscheidendes Jahr - ebenso wie 1969 mein Geburtsjahr. Die zwei Jahre haben viele Gemeinsamkeiten. Woodstock '99 wurde zu einem eigenen Altamont. Columbine wurde die Manson-Morde unserer Generation. Es sind Dinge passiert, die dazu geführt haben könnten, dass ich aufhören wollte, Musik zu machen. Stattdessen entschied ich mich, rauszukommen und jeden wirklich zu bestrafen, weil er es wagte, mit mir zu ficken. Ich habe hier einen großen Kampf vor mir. Und ich will jedes Stück davon.
—Mililyn Manson [77]
Am 14. November 2000 wurde Holy Wood (Im Schatten des Tales des Todes) freigelassen. [78] Das Album wurde von Dave Sardy, dem Sänger der Band, produziert und bietet auch Programmierung und Pre-Production-Editing von Bon Harris von Nitzer Ebb. [79] Die Band schrieb über 100 Songs für das Album, [79] was eine Rückkehr zum dunkleren, aggressiveren Sound von Antichrist Superstar war. Ein Großteil seines Inhalts wurde als Antwort auf das Massaker von Columbine [80] mit der dritten Single "The Nobodies" des Albums geschrieben, die sich direkt auf die Schießereien bezieht. [81] Von dem Frontmann der Band als dritter Teil einer Trilogie beschrieben, die mit Antichrist Superstar begann und 19459006 Mechanical Animals [82] [19454003] begann, ist das eine Exploration der Beziehung zwischen Tod und Ruhm in der amerikanischen Kultur, und die Texte und Kunstwerke enthalten viele Hinweise auf John F. Kennedy und Lee Harvey Oswald, John Lennon und Mark David Chapman sowie auf Abraham Lincoln und John Wilkes Booth. [83] Die "Guns, God and Government Tour", die sich auf das zentrale Thema von Holy Wood ' (19459006) und dessen Logo - ein Gewehr und Faustfeuerwaffen, die dem christlichen Kreuz ähnelten - ausführte, machte Manson nicht, um das zu verbergen, was er sah die Quelle dieser Faszination. [84]
Die Band enthüllte auch, dass die Band innerhalb ihrer Konzept-Album-Trilogie [85] Holy Wood als Prequel bis dient. Mechanical Animals und Antichrist Superstar obwohl die beiden letztgenannten Holy Wood im Veröffentlichungsdatum waren. [86] Jedes Album enthält eine eigene Handlung, die miteinander verknüpft werden kann, um eine größere Handlung zu schaffen, die alle drei umfasst. [86] Manson hat dies in einer Art Interpretation angeboten: "[ Holy Wood geht es darum]in eine Welt zu passen, die mich nicht will, und wirklich hart zu kämpfen, um dorthin zu gelangen. [The album's deepest elements] sind." Idealismus und der Wunsch, eine Revolution zu beginnen: Wenn Sie mit Holy Wood beginnen, dann Mechanical Animals spricht wirklich darüber, wie Ihnen diese Revolution genommen und in ein Produkt verwandelt wird Mit dem Antichrist-Superstar haben Sie die Wahl, zu entscheiden, ob Sie von der von Ihnen geschaffenen Kraft kontrolliert werden oder sich selbst zerstören und neu anfangen wollen. " [85]
Die Band lehnte es zunächst ab, sich Ozzy Osbournes Ozzfest 2001 anzuschließen, da sein Datum am 21. Juni in Denver ihr erster Auftritt in Colorado seit dem Massaker von Columbine sein würde. [87] Nachdem die Band auf ihrer Website angekündigt hatte, in Denver aufzutreten, wurde sie von religiösen Gruppen protestiert. Die Band plante, ihre "gewalttätigen Texte" durch Zitate biblischer Texte "auszugleichen", damit wir die Tugenden wunderbarer christlicher Geschichten über Krankheit, Mord, Ehebruch, Selbstmord und Kinderopfer untersuchen können. " [88] [19656050] ] [89] Die Tour wurde durch eine DVD mit dem gleichen Namen dokumentiert, die am 29. Oktober 2002 veröffentlicht wurde. Neben einem Kompilationskonzert [songs from multiple individual shows edited together to appear as a single performance] enthält sie einen 30-minütigen Kurzfilm mit dem Titel "The Todesparade ". [90] Es folgte Guns, God und Government - Live in LA im Jahr 2009, das ihre Leistung vom 13. Januar 2001 im Grand Olympic Auditorium von Los Angeles in seiner Gesamtheit darstellt. [91]
Anfang 2001 veröffentlichte die Band ein Cover von Gloria Jones "Tainted Love" auf dem Soundtrack zu Not Another Teen Movie . [92] Das Lied wurde zum bislang größten internationalen Hit der Band und erreichte in zahlreichen europäischen Territorien den ersten Platz. [93] Im Jahr 2002 lud Jonathan Davis von Korn Marilyn Manson ein, Vocals auf einem Titel mit dem Titel "Redeemer" aufzunehmen, der auf seinem Soundtrack zu Queen of the Damned veröffentlicht wurde. [94] Manson erschien auch in Michael Moores Dokumentarfilm von 2002, Bowling for Columbine ; Sein Auftritt wurde am selben Tag wie ihre Denver Ozzfest-Aufführung gefilmt. Als Moore fragte, was Manson den Schülern in Columbine gesagt hätte, antwortete er: "Ich würde ihnen kein Wort sagen. Ich würde hören, was sie zu sagen haben, und das hat niemand getan." [95]
Das goldene Zeitalter von Grotesque und Vergessen wir (2004–06)
mit dem "Triptychon" von Nach Fertigstellung der Alben konnte die Band ein neues Projekt beginnen. [96] Im Jahr 2002 schuf Manson mit dem ehemaligen KMFDM-Multiinstrumentalisten Tim Sköld Resident Evil eine Originalpartitur. [97] Bald darauf wurde Sköld offizielles Bandmitglied, als Twiggy Ramirez die Gruppe mit kreativen Unterschieden freundlicherweise verließ. [98] Nachdem er sich durch Mansons Freundin Dita Von Teese in den Swing- und Burlesque-Bewegungen von Berlin, [99] inspirieren ließ, nahm die Band The Golden Age of Grotesque auf, das am 13. Mai veröffentlicht wurde. 2003 und debütierte auf dem Billboard 200-Album-Chart mit über 118.000 verkauften Exemplaren in der ersten Woche. [43] Es war auch ein internationaler Erfolg, vor allem in Europa, wo es in seiner ersten Woche über 400.000 Exemplare verkaufte, [100] und verschiedene nationale Rekordkarten sowie die Billboard s Europäische Albumkarte. [101] Das Album erschien auch auf mehreren Jahresendlisten der Kritiker, [19] und gewann 2003 einen "Metal Edge Readers 'Choice Award" für das "Album des Jahres". [102]
Eschewing Die lyrische Tiefe und Symbolik von Holy Wood das Album war relativ unkompliziert: In einer erweiterten Metapher vergleicht Manson sein oft kritisiertes Werk mit dem Entartete Kunst das vom Nazi-Regime verboten wurde [103] Lyrisch nutzt Manson während des gesamten Albums den narrativen Modus des Bewusstseinsstroms, um die menschliche Psyche in Krisenzeiten zu untersuchen, wobei er sich speziell auf die Denkweise von Wahnsinnigen und Kindern konzentriert, da sie laut Manson den Regeln nicht folgen [of society]. " [104] Mehrere Lieder enthalten Elemente, die häufig in Spielgesängen und Kinderreimen gefunden werden, die Manson" in etwas Hässliches und Lurides "pervertieren würde. [104] Die Arbeit von Kurt Weill wurde auch als Einfluss wahrgenommen, zusammen mit den luziden Träumen, die die Sängerin während ihrer Produktion hatte, und Manson erklärte, dass er "aufwachen und sagen würde:" Ich möchte ein Lied schreiben, das wie ein stampfender Elefant klingt, "oder" Ich möchte ein Lied schreiben, das wie ein brennendes Klavier klingt. “ [104] [105]
Manson begann seine langjährige Zusammenarbeit mit dem österreichisch-irischen Künstler Gottfried Helnwein und arbeitete zusammen bei mehreren multimedialen Projekten verbunden mit dem Album, einschließlich der Ausstellungen und Installationsprojekte, die auf der Launch-Party des Albums im Key Club in Los Angeles zu sehen waren, dem Album-Artwork, dem Musikvideo zur Single "mOBSCENE" sowie dem Artwork, das Mansons Essay für The begleitete Rock and Roll Hall of Fame und Museum. [106] [107] Zu den limitierten Ausgaben des Albums gehörte eine DVD mit dem Titel Doppelherz (Doppelherz), ein 25-minütiger surrealistischer Kurzfilm von Manson, der eine künstlerische Leitung von Helnwein hatte. [108] Es folgte eine weitere Welttournee, "Grotesk Burlesk", die das von der Weimarer Republik inspirierte Thema des Albums unterstützte, indem die von Helnwein kreierten Bühnengewänder und Elemente des deutschen Kabarett zu den Aufführungen der Gruppe hinzugefügt wurden. [107] Manson und die Bandmitglieder erschienen sowohl auf der Bühne als auch außerhalb der Bühne in Designeranzügen, die von Jean-Paul Gaultier entworfen wurden. [109]
"Lest We Forget: The Best Of" veröffentlicht am 28. September 2004 und wurde von Manson als "Abschied" -Kompilation bezeichnet. [110] Es war das letzte unter Nothing Records veröffentlichte Album, als das Label nach einer von Reznor gegen seinen ehemaligen Manager und Geschäftspartner John Malm eingereichten Klage aufgelöst wurde. [111] Die Zusammenstellung wurde von der "Against All Gods Tour", [112] sowie einem einzigen Cover von Depeche Mode "Personal Jesus" unterstützt. [113] Es war die erste und einzige Tour, bei der Mark Chaussee von Rob Halfords Fight auf der Leadgitarre [114] als Nachfolger von John 5 auftrat, dessen Beziehung zu Manson im vergangenen Jahr beeinträchtigt worden war. [115] [115] Der ehemalige Schlagzeuger Nine Inch Nails, Chris Vrenna, löste auch Ginger Fish ab, der sich am Handgelenk, Schädel und Wangenknochen brach, nachdem er bei einer deutschen Preisverleihung einige Schritte von seinem Trommelsteiger gefallen war. [116] [117] [19659061] Eat Me, Drink Me (2007–08) [ edit ]
Sköld und Manson während der "Rape of the World Tour"
Ende 2005 Die Band hatte 18 neue Songs komponiert. Die Arbeit an ihrem sechsten Studioalbum wurde jedoch eingestellt, als Manson seine Aufmerksamkeit auf verschiedene Film- und Kunstprojekte konzentrierte, einschließlich der Entwicklung seines Drehbuchs, Phantasmagoria: The Visions of Lewis Carroll as sowie eine untergeordnete Rolle im Film Lucy Liu Rise: Blood Hunter . [118] Er gründete auch eine selbst ernannte Kunstbewegung, die Celebritarian Corporation, zu der der Künstler Gottfried Helnwein, der Modedesigner Steven Klein und der Regisseur Anthony Silva [119] sowie Pläne zur Eröffnung einer Kunstgalerie und Veröffentlichung gehörten ein Buch seiner Bilder. [120] Nach der Eröffnung der Celebritarian Corporation Gallery Of Fine Art in der Melrose Avenue im Jahr 2006 begannen die Arbeiten an neuem Material. Manson schrieb die Texte über bereits bestehende Kompositionen von Sköld. [121]
Das daraus entstandene Material wurde komponiert und vollständig von Sköld aufgenommen, und enthält keine Beiträge zum Schreiben oder zur Performance von irgendeinem anderen Bandmitglied. [122] Sein Inhalt ist weitgehend von persönlichen Problemen im Zusammenhang mit Mansons gescheiterter Ehe mit Von Teese und seiner aufkeimenden Beziehung mit der damals 19-jährigen Schauspielerin Evan Rachel Wood inspiriert. [121] Die Band debütierte am The Tonight Show mit Jay Leno am 31. Oktober 2006 mit ihrem Cover von "This Is Halloween" aus einer Deluxe-Edition von The Nightmare Before Christmas . Soundtrack. [123] Dies wäre ihr letzter Auftritt mit dem langjährigen Keyboarder Madonna Wayne Gacy, [124] [125] der im folgenden Jahr eine 20-Millionen-Dollar-Klage gegen die Band wegen unbezahlter "Partnerschaftserlöse" einreichen würde. [126]
Vor dem Album erschien eine Single "Heart-Shaped Glasses (When the Heart Guides the Hand)", deren Musikvideo mit dem Regisseur James Cameron 3D Fusion gedreht wurde Camera System technology.[127] The video caused controversy upon release, with several sources claiming that it featured genuine footage of Manson and Wood engaged in sexual intercourse.[127][128][129][130] Wood was reportedly paid "the highest [music] video salary in history" to appear in the video.[131]Eat Me, Drink Me was released on June 5, 2007,[132] and entered the Billboard 200 at number eight with first week sales of 88,000 copies.[133] It also peaked in the top ten of most major international album charts, as well as at number two on Billboard's European Albums Chart.[134] "Putting Holes In Happiness" was released as the album's second single.[135]
To promote the album, the band embarked on the nine-month "Rape of the World Tour", which featured Sköld on lead guitar,[136] former The Prodigy bassist Rob Holliday[137] and longtime drummer Ginger Fish; while Vrenna rejoined the band as their live keyboardist.[138] The first leg of the tour was a co-headlining set with American thrash metal band Slayer, with support coming from Bleeding Through.[139][140] In November 2007, Manson confirmed that he and Sköld had begun work on the band's next studio album, with Slayer's Kerry King, former The Smashing Pumpkins guitarist James Iha and Nick Zinner of Yeah Yeah Yeahs set to feature.[141] By the beginning of 2008, however, Twiggy Ramirez had rejoined the band as bassist, resulting in the exit of Sköld, with Holliday moving from bass to lead guitar for the remaining duration of the tour.[142] Future collaborations with Sköld were not ruled out.[143]
The High End of Low (2009–10)[edit]
In 2008, former Limp Bizkit guitarist Wes Borland joined the band for their headlining show at the 2008 ETP Fest in South Korea.[144] However, Borland left the group to reunite with Limp Bizkit, later saying that he was reluctant to be a "hired gun", citing the band's refusal to record any of the nine songs he submitted for their upcoming album.[145]R&B singer Ne-Yo claimed in early December that he would hold writing sessions with the band's frontman on new material,[146] although Manson denied it,[147] saying that he had "never even met Ne-Yo. I can assure him that he would not want to be associated with something this godless."[148]
The High End of Low was recorded throughout 2008, with Manson recording vocals at his Hollywood Hills home studio[149] between November and January 5, 2009.[150] Produced by Manson, Twiggy and Vrenna with Antichrist Superstar and Mechanical Animals co-producer Sean Beavan,[151][152] Manson described the album as containing "extreme" autobiographical content relating to the dissolution of his engagement to Wood,[149][150] and as being "very ruthless, heavy and violent".[153] Its fifteen songs appear on the album in the order they were written.[150] The penultimate track, "Into the Fire", portrays the vocalist's mental state on Christmas Day, wherein he attempted to contact Wood 158 times, cutting himself with a razorblade on the face or hands for each corresponding attempt.[154] The album's final song, "15", was completed on Manson's January 5 birthday – hence the name.[150] Manson utilized his entire home as a canvas to document the disintegration of the relationship, writing its lyrics on walls and coupling them with paintings and drawings relating to Wood, as well as used condoms, bags of cocaine and other drug paraphernalia.[151]
"We're from America" was released as a free download on the band's website on March 27, 2009,[155] while a Hot Topic-exclusive CD single followed two weeks later.[156] After playing an instrumental version of "Arma-goddamn-motherfuckin-geddon" to Interscope's A&R department, it was chosen as the album's official lead single, with an employee telling Manson, "This is gonna be a hit!". Manson then quipped to the employee, "Well, I'm glad that you have no consideration for what I [might] put on top of it."[157] A heavily censored version of the profanity-laced track – re-titled to "Arma ... geddon"[158] – was serviced to radio from April 13,[155] and peaked at number thirty-seven on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart, becoming their lowest-peaking single in the process.[59] The album was released on May 26, 2009 and debuted at number four on the Billboard 200 with sales of over 49,000 copies, their lowest opening week figure since The Last Tour on Earth debuted with 26,000 copies in 1999.[159]
Prior to The High End of Low's release, Manson made a series of disparaging comments regarding Interscope and its artistic censorship; as well as its then-CEO Jimmy Iovine, who Manson said "wasn't smart enough to understand what [we] do",[160] and publicly claiming that the label "cares more about Vitamin Water [the private equity venture of Interscope-signed 50 Cent][161] than music."[162] Reznor – who, as of 2015, remains friends with Iovine[163] – responded by calling Manson a "dopey clown" and claiming that "He is a malicious guy and will step on anybody's face to succeed and cross any line of decency."[164] While promoting the album in the UK, Manson appeared inebriated in a series of interviews.[165][166] An interview for Alan Carr: Chatty Man recorded during this time remains unaired,[167] due to graphic language and content.[168] A music video for "Running to the Edge of the World" – in which Manson beats a Wood lookalike to death – was released on November 4 and was condemned as a perceived glorification of violence against women.[169][170] The band parted ways with Interscope on December 3.[171] They settled the lawsuit filed by former keyboardist Stephen Bier (aka M.W. Gacy), with Manson's insurance company paying Bier's attorney's fees and Bier receiving no monetary value.[172][173][174]
Born Villain (2011–13)[edit]
Upon parting with Interscope, Manson said "a lot of the creative control on which my hands were tied [has been regained]", while stating that the band had been writing new material while touring their previous album.[175] Manson attested that its lyrical content would be "more romantic" yet "self-abusive",[175] and described its sonic elements as being "suicide death metal".[176]Fred Sablan joined the band in July 2010.[177] By October, Twiggy described the album as being "almost done", and opined that "It's our best record yet. I mean, everyone always says that, but I think this is our best work so far. It's kind of like a little more of a punk rock Mechanical Animalswithout sounding too pretentious."[178] The following month, it was announced that the band had signed a joint-venture deal with London-based indie label Cooking Vinyl.[178] As part of the deal, the band would retain creative control over their artistic direction,[179] with the band and label sharing profits equally after the label recoups costs associated with marketing, promotion and distribution.[180]
For much of 2011, Manson removed himself from the public spotlight and ceased almost all communication with fans,[181] only taking a break from his self-imposed sequestration to appear in the music video for "Tempat Ku" by Brunei rock band D'Hask.[182] On February 24, longtime drummer Ginger Fish announced his resignation from the group.[183] On May 22, their website underwent a complete overhaul. A 26-second clip of an unreleased song, tentatively titled "I am among no one", was uploaded to their Vimeo account, along with a new logo.[184]
After being impressed by his directorial work on one of Kid Cudi's music videos,[185] Manson employed actor Shia LaBeouf to direct a short film entitled Born Villain.[186] Contrary to media reports that the project would be a "making-of" video documenting the album's recording,[187][188]Born Villain was a surrealist short[189] featuring a previously unreleased track, "Overneath the Path of Misery". Containing numerous references to Macbeth,[190] it was inspired by Jodorowsky's The Holy Mountain[185] and Luis Buñuel and Salvador Dalí's 1929 silent film Un Chien Andalou.[190] To promote the project, LaBeouf and his girlfriend, photographer Karolyn Pho, graffitied areas of LA with its artwork. LaBeouf and Pho later photographed their work, and released it as a limited edition book titled Campaignwhich was bundled with a DVD of the film.[190][191] In November, Vrenna departed the band to focus on other production work, whilst indicating that production of their eighth studio album was "largely completed".[192]
The album was preceded by the release of "No Reflection", which Manson leaked to KROQ-FM on March 7, 2012.[193] Cooking Vinyl CEO Martin Goldschmidt called the leak a "masterstroke", saying "we had all these exclusives lined up around the world, and then Manson blew them all. We're already getting more radio play than the whole of the last record."[194] The song went on to peak at number twenty-six on the Mainstream Rock chart, spending fourteen weeks on the chart, and was their best-performing single there since "Personal Jesus" in 2004.[59]Born Villain was released worldwide from April 30,[193] debuting at number ten on the Billboard 200 and atop both the Independent Albums and Top Hard Rock Albums charts.[195] The album spent two weeks at number one on the UK Rock Albums Chart.[196] A remix EP for "Slo-Mo-Tion" followed on November 5.[197] The band embarked on the seventeen-month "Hey Cruel World... Tour" from the end of April,[198] which was interspersed by co-headlining tours with Rob Zombie ("Twins of Evil") and Alice Cooper ("Masters of Madness").[199][200]
The Pale Emperor (2014–16)[edit]
In August 2012, it was announced that Manson would play a fictionalized version of himself in a four-episode arc of the sixth season of TV series Californication.[201] While filming its season finale at the Greek Theatre in LA,[202] Manson met the series' score composer, Tyler Bates, and the two discussed a potential collaboration.[203] Manson confirmed that production started on new material by May 2013.[204] Four months later, Sablan announced that he had left the group.[205]
One track from the album, "Cupid Carries a Gun"[206] was used as the opening theme to Salem from its second episode onwards, which premiered on US television on April 27.[207] In October, a large portion of the album track "Killing Strangers" was predominantly featured[208] in the Keanu Reeves movie John Wick.[209] "Third Day of a Seven Day Binge" was released for free download on the band's website on October 26,[210] and served as the album's first official single.[211] The band performed several new songs live for the first time as they played a handful of concerts around southern California in October and early November.[212] "Deep Six" was released on December 16,[213] with a music video following three days later.[214] It went on to peak at number eight on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart,[215] making it the band's highest-ever peaking single on Billboard.[59] "Cupid Carries a Gun" was released as the album's third official single on January 8, 2015.[216][217]
The Pale Emperor was released on January 20 in the US.[218] It is dedicated to Manson's mother, who died in May 2014 after an eight-year battle with Alzheimer's disease and dementia.[219][220] It was both a critical and commercial success, debuting at number eight on the Billboard 200 with sales of over 51,000 copies,[221] their largest opening-week figure since Eat Me, Drink Me in 2007.[133][222] Numerous publications referred to it as the band's best album in over a decade.[218][219][223][224] It would go on to appear on several 'best of 2015' lists, with Rolling Stone dubbing it the 'best metal album' of 2015.[225] Music videos for both "The Mephistopheles of Los Angeles" and "Third Day of a Seven Day Binge" were released in May and July, respectively.[226][227]
The band embarked on the nearly-two year-long The Hell Not Hallelujah Tour in support of the album, which was interspersed by a co-headlining tour with The Smashing Pumpkins titled The End Times.[228][229] In February 2016, Manson contributed vocals to a version of David Bowie's "Cat People (Putting Out Fire)" on Countach (For Giorgio)a tribute album to Giorgio Moroder curated by Shooter Jennings.[230][231][232] A 16-bit music video for the song was released five months later.[233] Also in February, details were announced of another co-headlining tour, this time with Slipknot.[234] The tour was scheduled to begin on June 9 in Salt Lake City and consist of thirty-four dates in Amphitheatres throughout North America, with support from Of Mice & Men.[235] However, the first twelve dates of the tour were postponed after an examination revealed that Corey Taylor had broken two vertebrae in his neck. The tour began on June 28 in Nashville, Tennessee, with the postponed shows rescheduled for August.[236]
Heaven Upside Down (2017–present)[edit]
While touring with The Smashing Pumpkins, Manson indicated a "strong possibility" of working with Corgan on new material, and also revealed plans to collaborate with Korn frontman Jonathan Davis on a "Southern-sounding, acoustic" project.[237] Manson announced in an interview with KEGL in November that work had begun on the band's tenth studio album, while also confirming that Twiggy, Bates and Sharone would all be involved in its recording.[238]Antichrist Superstar was reissued on cassette exclusively in Europe as part of Record Store Day 2016.[239][240] To celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the album's release, Manson indicated that a special edition of Antichrist Superstar would be issued on October 20,[241] although this failed to materialize. Among its bonus content would have been a previously unreleased film, created during the "Dead to the World Tour".[242]
On July 19, Manson announced that the band's tenth studio album had the working title SAY10and predicted a release date of Valentine's Day 2017.[243] In September, Manson confirmed that the band were "putting the finishing touches" on the album, and said: "It's not very much in any way like The Pale Emperor. It's pretty violent in its nature for some reason, and it's not emotional in the same way. It's got a chip on its shoulder. I can't wait for people to hear it. I think they're going to be quite surprised."[244] On November 8 – the day of the 2016 US presidential election – Manson released a teaser clip of a new music video created alongside Final Girl director Tyler Shields. It featured scenes of Manson brandishing a knife while standing over a decapitated corpse. According to The Daily Beast's Marlow Stern, the decapitated figure is dressed to resemble Donald Trump.[245] Manson would later say that the figure in the video "wasn't anyone except if you wanted it to be them."[246]
The album was not released in February 2017, and instead a long series of cryptic videos were posted to Marilyn Manson's personal Instagram account over the course of just under 2 months, before Manson revealed on May 9 that the album had been named Heaven Upside Down.[247] The band began their Heaven Upside Down Tour on July 20, 2017 in Budapest. The first single from the album, "We Know Where You Fucking Live", was released on September 11, with the album due to follow on October 6.[248] A second single, "Kill4Me", was released on September 20.[249] On October 24, Manson announced that Ramirez had been fired from the band following rape allegations from Jack Off Jill vocalist Jessicka. Manson said that he will be replaced for the rest of the Heaven Upside Down Tour.[250]
Musical style[edit]
Although the band's music has often been labeled as shock rock by mainstream media,[221][251][252][253] Manson disputes the use of the label,[254] preferring instead to identify his band's music as rock and roll.[255] Marilyn Manson's music has been classified under many genres, including industrial metal,[19][256][257][258]industrial rock,[259][260][261]industrial dance,[262]post-industrial,[263][264]alternative metal,[265][266][267]progressive metal,[261]hard rock,[19][268][269]nu metal,[270][271]electronic music,[11]glam rock,[51][256]gothic metal,[258][52]death metal,[260][273]blues rock[274] and pop.[268] Although Marilyn Manson's music has often been labelled gothic rock, AllMusic contends that the band merely borrows from gothic rock's imagery.[275]
From 1996 to his departure in 2002,[276] Twiggy was their chief musical contributor, co-writing many of the band's biggest hits with Manson during this period.[277] Despite never receiving a writing credit, drummer Ginger Fish provided substantial pre-production assistance to both Manson and Twiggy while composing demos for Antichrist Superstar. His drums loops and sound effects would go on to be predominantly featured on several tracks, most notably "The Beautiful People".[278] John 5 and Tim Sköld were also prevalent composers,[55] while The Pale Emperor and Heaven Upside Down were composed entirely by Tyler Bates.[279]
All of the band's lyrics are written by Manson, whose songwriting style varies between albums.[280] Utilizing aesthetics often found within spoken-word poetry,[273][281] his writing features comedy,[273]puns,[282][283][284] and double entendres,[285][286] and he makes frequent use of alliteration.[287] The band's witticisms often take the form of neologisms, delivered several at a time in rapid-fire succession.[288] Lyrical content has emerged from a wide range of subjects, including love,[121]sex and sexuality,[46]sexual abuse, consumerism, politics,[289] revenge,[150] suicide, capitalism,[268] violence and mortality,[290] as well as the Bible[291] and Greek mythology.[292]
Manson predominantly delivers lyrics in a melodic fashion,[293] although he invariably enhances his vocal register by utilizing several extended vocal techniques, such as vocal fry,[294]screaming,[295]growling[296] and crooning.[297][298] His voice can emit five different tones simultaneously,[299] which mixing engineer Robert Carranza discovered can form a pentagram when imported into a phrasal analyzer.[300][301] He possesses a baritone vocal type.[302] His lowest bass note of A1 can be heard in "Arma-goddamn-motherfuckin-geddon", while his highest note, an E6 – the first note of the whistle register – can be heard on the Born Villain song "Hey, Cruel World ...".[303]
Influences[edit]
David Bowie (left) and Kiss (right) have heavily influenced Marilyn Manson.
Manson's earliest musical memory was listening to Kiss during a family road trip;[304] he has since cited the band as a major influence.[305] As a child, he would imitate Kiss' kabuki-like makeup[306] and draw pictures of Gene Simmons and Peter Criss.[304] The earliest incarnation of the band was conceived by Manson at a Fort Lauderdale[307] nightclub called The Reunion Room in December 1989,[5] where he was introduced to Big Black's Songs About Fucking by his future keyboardist, Stephen Bier. Daisy Berkowitz played in several punk rock outfits before co-founding the Spooky Kids, and was influenced by acts such as the New York Dolls and the Jim Carroll Band, whose "People Who Died" was covered regularly at live shows.
As its only permanent member, Manson heads the direction of the band's sound; he has been influenced by the shock rock of artists such as Arthur Brown,[310]Alice Cooper,[256]The Doors,[311]Black Sabbath/Ozzy Osbourne[256] and Iggy Pop.[312] His biggest influence, however, was David Bowie, whom he credited with "changing [his] life forever".[312][313] The two have often been compared by mainstream media, particularly in relation to their ability to shift genre and style – replete with a new look and musical philosophy – with each studio release.[314][315][316] Manson's two favorite songs are Bowie's "Quicksand" and "Ashes to Ashes".[304] For several years, Manson sang Bowie's "Cat People (Putting Out Fire)" as a vocal warm up exercise before live performances;[317] he later covered the song with outlaw country musician Shooter Jennings.[318]
During their period at Nothing Records, the band's sound gathered sonic elements from other outfits on that label's roster, particularly Nine Inch Nails, with Reznor co-producing their first two studio albums.[39][51] Manson has cited Queen as an influence on the band's more melodic work,[51] while new wave and synthpop acts such as Depeche Mode[319] and Gary Numan[320] have been noted as influencing their electronic material. Manson said of the latter, "I was always into his apocalyptic fiction lyrics. He pioneered electronic dance music."[321] The work of gothic rock acts such as The Cure[322] and Bauhaus has also been cited, with Twiggy saying that "as far as guitar and bass combinations go", Bauhaus' Daniel Ash and David J were "a really big influence".[323] Manson's other influences include the Beatles, Rihanna,[246]White Zombie,[324]Johnny Cash, Jimi Hendrix, N.W.A, The Smashing Pumpkins, Justin Timberlake,[325]Led Zeppelin, the occult, horror comics, and the King James Bible.[256]
Impact and legacy[edit]
It's clear Manson isn't merely a freak rocker, media manipulator or one-trick pony. The secret to his longevity lies not in his sometimes schlocky image, but in the content of his work. Not only are his songs sonically compelling and his themes fresh and intriguing, but his actions speak louder than his words. His imagery, sounds and theatrics all still have a point, and like all true artists, he continues to wring significant messages from the lining of his contorted innards. Manson doesn't just bleed for his art. He drinks, pukes, fornicates and risks his life for it.
—Jon Wiederhorn of MTV on Marilyn Manson, 2003[1]
Marilyn Manson have been credited with creating some of the most recognizable and visually defining music videos of the MTV Generation,[326][327] with some commentators suggesting that their music videos played a significant role in the band's commercial success.[328][329] Their work frequently incorporates surrealist iconography and purposefully grotesque imagery,[190][330][331] and their style has been emulated by other performers.[332] Joseph Schafer of Stereogum said in 2015 that "perhaps no single artist has mastered the music video as a medium so well [as Marilyn Manson]."[268] They have received numerous awards and accolades for their work. Three of their videos – "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)", "The Beautiful People" and "The Dope Show" – received a total of five MTV Video Music Award nominations, with the latter winning the Award for Best Cinematography at the 1999 ceremony.[61] The clip for "The Dope Show" also won two awards at the 1998 Billboard Music Video Awards.[60] "The Beautiful People" appeared at number fifty-four on MTV's list of the '100 Greatest Music Videos Ever Made'.[333] as well as at number one-hundred on MuchMusic's 100 Greatest Videos Ever.[334] Their 2003 video for "(s)AINT" was referred to by NME as "one of the most explicit music videos ever made",[335] and was included in lists of the 'Most Controversial Music Videos' by both Time and SF Weekly.[336][337]
The band have received several Kerrang! Awards throughout their career, and were inducted into the Kerrang! Hall of Fame in 2000.[338] Manson also received their Icon Award in 2005,[339][340] as well as their Lifetime Achievement Award ten years later.[341] The publication has ranked Holy Wood (In the Shadow of the Valley of Death) as the eleventh greatest rock album of the 2000s,[342] and in 2015 they listed Manson as the twenty-eighth greatest rockstar in the world.[343]VH1 included Marilyn Manson at seventy-eight on their list of the '100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock',[344] and also included "The Beautiful People" at number eighty-six on their list of the 100 Greatest Hard Rock Songs.[345] Similarly, Gigwise included Manson at number thirty-six in their list of the '60 Greatest Solo Artists of All Time'.[346] In 2016, Manson was presented with an Icon Award at the Alternative Press Music Awards.[347] The band has also received four Grammy Award nominations, including two for Best Metal Performance, along with nominations for Best Hard Rock Performance and Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance.[62] Marilyn Manson have sold over 50 million records worldwide.[347][348][349][350]
Several commentators have referred to the band's lead singer as being one of the most iconic and controversial figures in heavy metal music,[329][351][352][353] with some going so far as to call him a "pop culture icon".[354][355][356]Paste magazine said there were "few artists in the 90s as shocking as Marilyn Manson, the most famous of the shock-rockers."[357]Rolling Stone editor Lorraine Ali credited Antichrist Superstar with marking the end of the reign of grunge within popular music, writing that Marilyn Manson "[offered] total escapism as a true alternative", elaborating that the album was "a volatile reaction to five years of earnest, post-Nirvana rock."[260] In 2003, Jon Wiederhorn of MTV called Manson "the only major performer today who can justifiably call himself an artist."[1] Graham Hartmann of Loudwire said that the band's best songs document "a career that is unlike any other that came before", highlighting their mix of a "rock 'n' roll mentality with profound lyrics narrating the progression of society in real time, Manson has developed a polarizing identity as both a beloved hero and a reviled villain."[358] Hannah Ewers of The Guardian wrote in 2016 that the band's music has "never been more relevant [than] at this time of cultural and political turbulence. Whether [his lyrics are addressing] America's gun crime problem, sexual abuse, religious hypocrisy or consumerism, Manson remains a relevant cultural figure rather than a 90s one, because he continues to address the times without lapsing into a parody", and opined: "As long as young people are angry (which they are), he will have listeners."[289]
The band has been noted as influencing numerous groups within metal-associated genres, such as American Head Charge,[359]Babymetal,[360][361]Combichrist,[362]Korn,[363]Motionless in White,[364]Murderdolls,[365]Mushroomhead,[366]New Years Day,[367]September Mourning[368][369] and Slipknot.[370] Outside of heavy metal, both the band and its lead singer h ave inspired a diverse group of acts, including the Astroid Boys,[371]Avril Lavigne,[372][373]Charli XCX,[374][375]Creeper,[376]Die Antwoord,[377]Eminem,[378][379]Grimes,[380]Lady Gaga,[381][382]Lana Del Rey,[383]Lil Uzi Vert,[384][385]Lisa Marie Presley,[386]Muse,[387]My Chemical Romance,[388]Mykki Blanco,[389][390]Natalia Kills,[391]Porcelain Black,[392]Salem,[393]Skrillex,[394]Skylar Grey[395] and Years & Years.[396]Garbage vocalist Shirley Manson has called Manson an "amazing figure and provocateur and agitator" and said that he was "always challenging you to think about the church, to think about sexuality and to think about society in different ways. We just don't have singers like that anymore."[397] Billy Corgan of The Smashing Pumpkins has commended Manson's manipulation of the culture of celebrity, saying: "He's very savvy, in that he lets people think things about him or plays into things to see what will happen, almost like a performance artist. He's a visionary in a way, because he identified a culture that was coming and now that culture is everywhere."[289]
Controversies[edit]
Secretary of Education William Bennett (left) and U.S. Senator Joe Lieberman (right), co-directors of conservative advocacy group Empower America (now known as FreedomWorks), criticized the band's music on multiple occasions
In December 1996, Secretary of Education William Bennett, along with U.S. Senator Joe Lieberman and Secretary of Pennsylvania State C. DeLores Tucker, held a press conference wherein they questioned MCA – the owner of Interscope – president Edgar Bronfman Jr.'s ability to head the label competently whilst profiting from "profanity-laced" albums by artists such as Tupac Shakur, Snoop Doggy Dogg and Marilyn Manson.[398] The following November, Representative Sam Brownback chaired a hearing of t he Committee on Government Affairs.[399] At this subcommittee, Lieberman once again criticized the band's music, calling it "vile, hateful, nihilistic and damaging", and repeated his request that Seagram – then-owner of MCA – "start ... disassociating itself from Marilyn Manson." The subcommittee also heard from Raymond Kuntz, of Burlington, North Dakota, who blamed his son Richard's suicide on Antichrist Superstar – specifically the song "The Reflecting God".[400]
The band's live performances have also come under fire – the Dead to the World Tour, in particular, was followed by protesters at nearly every North American venue it visited.[46] Several states, including Utah, South Carolina and Virginia, passed legislation specifically targeting the group, which banned them from performing in state-operated venues.[401][402][403] These laws would later be repealed, following separate lawsuits from fans,[401] the American Civil Liberties Union,[403] and Ozzy Osbourne, who sued the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority after they forced the cancelation of the New Jersey date of Ozzfest at Giants Stadium.[403][404]
On June 30, 2003, the mutilated body of fourteen-year old schoolgirl Jodi Jones was discovered in woodland near her home in Easthouses, Scotland.[405] The injuries sustained by Jones closely resembled those of actress Elizabeth Short, who was murdered in 1947 and was popularly referred to by media as the Black Dahlia.[406][407] Jones' boyfriend, then-fifteen year old Luke Mitchell, was arrested on suspicion of her murder ten months later.[408] During a search of his home, detectives confiscated a copy of The Golden Age of Grotesque containing the short film Doppelherz.[409] It was purchased two days after Jones' death.[410] A ten-minute excerpt from the film, as well as several paintings by Manson depicting the Black Dahlia's mutilated body, were presented as evidence during the trial.[409][411][412] Mitchell was found guilty of murder and sentenced to serve a minimum of twenty years in prison.[413]
The band's scheduled appearance at the Park Live Festival in Moscow on June 27, 2014 was canceled moments before they were due to arrive on stage,[414] after authorities received numerous bomb threats, while hundreds of activists affiliated with the Russian Orthodox Church protested outside the venue.[415] The incident culminated in the assault of several members of the band and crew near their hotel.[416] Two days later, a performance in Novosibirsk was also canceled when authorities refused to grant permission for the show to go ahead, accusing Manson of insulting the beliefs of the Orthodox church and of "promoting sadomasochism".[417][418] Later that year, Manson garnered significant media attention when a video depicting the simulated rape of Lana Del Rey was posted onto YouTube by production company Sturmgruppe.[419] The video, titled "Sturmgruppe 2013 Reel", showed simulated footage of film director Eli Roth attacking Del Rey, which was interspersed by unrelated images from two of the band's previous music videos – "No Reflection" and "Slo-Mo-Tion".[420][421][422] Manson's representatives released a statement to Billboard denying any involvement in the production of the rape s cenes.[423]
In October 2017, Jack Off Jill vocalist Jessicka Adams alleged that she was raped by the band's bassist Twiggy Ramirez in the apartment of a mutual friend while the pair were a couple in the mid-90s. She wrote on Facebook: "He forced me on to the floor with his hand around my neck. I said NO. I said it so loud enough, that my friend Pete came rushing in from the other room to get him off of me. But I had been raped. I had been raped by somebody I thought I loved." Manson responded: "I knew Jessicka and Twiggy had a romantic relationship many years ago and I considered and still consider Jessicka to be a friend. I knew nothing about these allegations until very recently and am saddened by Jessicka's obvious distress."[424] Soon after, Manson announced on Twitter that Ramirez had been fired from the band.[250] Several days later, Ramirez said in a statement: "I have only recently been made aware of these allegations from over 20 years ago. I do not condone non-consensual sex of any kind. I will be taking some time to spend with my family and focus on maintaining my several years of sobriety. If I have caused anyone pain, I apologize and truly regret it."[425]
School shootings[edit]
Columbine massacre[edit]
I couldn't care less about those kids' reasoning. What reason do we have to go to war? It's all the same. Killing somebody can't be justified by having a reason. I think it says a lot about the media that those two kids were on the cover of Time magazine twice, because I'm sure that's everything they wanted. They wanted fame. America sold them the idea that an obituary is just another headline.
—Marilyn Manson on the Columbine massacre.[77]
On April 20, 1999, Columbine High School students Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold killed twelve students and a teacher, and wounded twenty-one others before committing suicide.[426] In the days following the massacre, media reports surfaced alleging that they were influenced by violence in entertainment, specifically movies, video games and music.[427] The pair were widely reported as being fans of German bands KMFDM and Rammstein, but the majority of blame was directed at Marilyn Manson.[81][428]
Five days after the incident, longtime music industry critics Republican former Secretary of Education William Bennett and Democrat U.S. Senator Joseph Lieberman cited the band as a contributing factor to the massacre during an appearance on Meet the Press.[429] Soon after, sensationalist headlines such as "Killers Worshipped Rock Freak Manson" and "Devil-Worshipping Maniac Told Kids To Kill" began appearing in media coverage of the tragedy (such as Fox News).[73] The Mayor of Denver, Wellington Webb, successfully petitioned promoters to cancel KBPI-FM's annual 'Birthday Bash', at which the band was scheduled to appear.[431]Coloradoan politicians such as Governor Bill Owens and Republican Representative Tom Tancredo accused Manson of promoting "hate, violence, death, suicide, drug use and the attitudes and actions of the Columbine High School killers."[88] Later reports stated that neither Harris or Klebold were fans of Marilyn Manson.[432][433] The band canceled the remaining four dates of the Rock Is Dead Tour out of respect for the victims, while maintaining that music, movies, books or video games were not to blame.[69][70]
Eleven days after the massacre, Manson wrote an op-ed piece for Rolling Stonetitled "Columbine: Whose Fault Is It?", where he rebuked the ensuing hysteria and "witch hunt", and castigated America's gun culture, the political influence of the National Rifle Association, and the media's culpability in similarly violent events in the future – through their irresponsible coverage – in facilitating the placement of blame on a scapegoat, instead of informing the populace of genuine societal issues.[434][435]
Other shootings[edit]
The controversy connecting the band and school shootings continued on October 10, 2007, when 14-year-old SuccessTech Academy stud ent Asa Coon shot four people before committing suicide.[436] After being punched in the face by another student while exiting a bathroom, he shot his attacker – Michael Peek – in the abdomen.[437] Armed with two revolvers, he then proceeded down a hallway, where he wounded another student and two teachers by firing into two occupied classrooms, before entering a nearby bathroom and committing suicide.[438] Coon was wearing a black Marilyn Manson T-shirt during the incident.[439][440]
On May 18, 2009, 15-year-old Justin Doucet, a student at Larose Middle School in Lafourche Parish, Louisiana, entered the school armed with a .25-caliber Automatic Colt Pistol.[441] When seventh-grade teacher Jessica Plaisance refused to comply with Doucet's demand to say "Hail Marilyn Manson", he fired two shots, narrowly missing her head, before turning the gun on himself.[442][443] He died from his injuries a week later.[444]
