Review of Marilyn Manson: Mechanical Animals
There are a few select artists that push the envelope of music so far that they actually get a massive backlash from the public. Religious zealots and conservative thinkers love to let people know what they feel is immoral or against God. Unfortunately, they almost always miss the point the artist is trying to make. The good news is that music fans and those that might like darker music know that artists like Marilyn Manson are true leaders that push music and society in new and amazing directions. We invite you to hear our four differing opinions of this album and learn about this album. In this podcast you will learn the following but much more:
- How the band members picked their names.
- Alain reveals how the trilogy of albums, Holy Wood, Mechanical Animals and Antichrist Superstar actually are meant to be listened to in a specific order. Interesting.
- How a religious school was actually responsible for informing Brian(Marilyn) of what music was deemed offensive and immoral.
Listen to our thoughts and see if this is worth going back to(it is!) and let us know what your experience was with this album.
