I personally think the first three albums are masterpieces. Don't particulary like the guy, but I do enjoy his music an awful lot.



The video of him kicking John 5 on stage is hilarious.

The first Manson Album was "Portrait Of An American Family".
It's not part of the infamous Trilogy.
And why do you order them backwards in your review?

Otherwise, good review!

Great review. Never really like MM, or industrial in general actually (from what I've heard).

I ordered them backward because that's how the concept works, it starts with HW and ends with ACS. I never really class "Portrait of An American Family" his first proper LP. haha Cheers for the feedback, bud.

@ScuroFantasma



You're missing out man, some seriously great industrial out there. Check out early Rammstein, Fracured, Nine Inch Nails and Psyclon Nine, there's loads more, but they're the ones I can think of off the top of my head. haha

Yeah, I've heard Rammstein but for me they're just okay again, as with MM. - DU HAST MICH - I've only heard Downwards Spiral by NIN, not enough to really comment on the band but I don't remember loving it or anything, it's probably good. I'll give the others a go but I don't know if it'll change much for me, i generally dislike stuff with even Industrial influences.

Very good review! This is the only Manson album I still listen to as a whole. It's his most consistent work imo.

Cheers guys!



There's some good tracks on here, Subho, I just wish it had been around the average number of songs, rather than dragging it out to 17 haha

But why? It is his first proper LP as far as I know. Great review by the way.

Even Manson himself doesn't class it as an album. lol It's a raw mess in the wrong way. My opinion, of course.



Think I should change it?



Cheers man.

It's a tough one but I'd have to say The golden age of grot would be 86-92 when the top shelf was packed with mags from Penthouse to Horny Granny..

It is a raw mess, but I kind of like it. A lot more than anything he released after GAOG for sure
