04.16.13 | I was gonna add Ministry to this battle, but imo that would be unfair- Ministry destroys. |
Sapient.
04.16.13 | see, I've never been a fan of Ministry (couldn't get a grip on Uncle Al's voice lol), but both Manson and NIN rule. I'd pick NIN if only for Downward Spiral having such a personal impact on me (one of my favorite albums), but Antichrist Superstar is amazing too |
ButteryBiscuitBass
04.16.13 | No contest (and I am a HUGE Manson fan), NIN all the way. |
DarkSideOfLucca
04.16.13 | @Sapient- Took me a very long time to get used to Ministry but once I got into them I only became more obsessed with time. But that's just me, could be different for you.
@Butterfly- Aha, all of my friends agree with you. |
ButteryBiscuitBass
04.16.13 | I love Holy Wood so much though. |
SupercolliderMusic
04.16.13 | The obvious choice here is NIN, mostly because Trent Reznor is God. |
bach
04.16.13 | Well, NiN. |

04.16.13 | In the Downward Spiral NIN made one of the most powerful albums out there. Brian is little more than a novelty act who takes himself way too seriously but I have to say has done some good tunes. |
geasoftime
04.16.13 | No contest. |
DarkSideOfLucca
04.16.13 | That's because Holy Wood rules :D
zakalwe, I actually think Antichrist Superstar is the best out of both discographies, but Downward Spiral is close |

theacademy
04.16.13 | mansons more talented but i prefer NIN |
DarkSideOfLucca
04.16.13 | @theacademy, really? I feel the exact opposite, aha. I think Reznor's compositions are way more impressive and consistent, but I like MM more |
necroscope86
04.16.13 | There really is no contest. Nine Inch Nails are far better because at least they have morals whereas Manson is a freak who just swears and gets angry in his songs for no reason |
DarkSideOfLucca
04.16.13 | necro wins for best lol of 2013 so far |
ButteryBiscuitBass
04.16.13 | @Necroscope86 - I suggest you read the lyrics to 1 on this list. Manson is anti what everyone assumes he is, because people are too retarded to actually listen to his lyrics and what they're about. |
ButteryBiscuitBass
04.16.13 | @DarkSide - I had to rise to it :( |
DarkSideOfLucca
04.16.13 | @Buttery, and I love you for it |

04.16.13 | Cheers bro |

04.16.13 | Also this

And any other interview with him, and the lyrics to Antichrist Superstar/Mechanical Animals as well
This is just too big of an argument to even begin, I could write essays on Manson |
DominionMM1
04.16.13 | nin has like 3 or 4 good records to manson's 1 (which was produced by trent reznor) so yeah |
DarkSideOfLucca
04.16.13 | Reznor's more consistent, agreed |
DominionMM1
04.16.13 | everything manson does is lifted from something else. |
ViperAces
04.16.13 | manson sucks |
DarkSideOfLucca
04.16.13 | Dominion- Eh, nothing is 100% original and he doesn't strike me as blatantly ripping anyone off
Viper- I feel like I should say something in response to that but I won't because I have nothing to say since we have different opinions but now you just wasted all that time reading this, sorry |
DominionMM1
04.16.13 | "he doesn't strike me as blatantly ripping anyone off"
have you not seen the cover of slc or heard the first track from poaaf? dude, half of his hits are covers.

DominionMM1
04.16.13 | i believe we've had this conversation before, andcas |
DarkSideOfLucca
04.16.13 | Holy shit, that was a surprise andcas...didn't think you liked his older stuff that much, but yeah I agree, even though I still like Golden Age and Born Villain. I know I just mentioned this, but High End of Low and Eat Me, Drink Me are fucking awful in my opinion, I just pretend like those two albums don't exist. |
Cygnatti
04.16.13 | NIN, I don't dig Manson. |
JustinKing
04.16.13 | Was never big into either, but just for the fun factor, I'd say Manson. I could never take him seriously, even when I was younger. Compositionally speaking, though, Reznor is far superior, in my opionion. |
DarkSideOfLucca
04.16.13 | Definitely dude, it's weird- NIN can compose songs way better but for some reason he never hits as hard as Manson does (imo but that goes without saying) |
JustinKing
04.16.13 | Reznor is great at composing subtle songs that leave an impact, but Manson just says fuck songwriting and punches a hole in the wall. It's just strange how Manson is so clearly inferior and superior at the same time. |
