I think you two should dig in to Marilyn Manson's various interviews and stuff and react to that. You will see a different side of him that you could actually appreciate.
Not the op here, but I really like his participation on politically incorrect a old TV show... Forgot the name of the host but he is very well known Bill Maher maybe? Really can't remember the name right now I fell bad for it coz I actually like the guys show that also has his name on it. 🤣🤣
VinAnd Sori ruclips.net/video/_tco6_-yP40/видео.html this is a debate show and Marilyn get targeted a good bit, but Florence Henderson (Mother from The Brady Bunch) also on the show, is also interesting to watch here. ruclips.net/video/lUdF2CbKIa8/видео.html Bill O'Reilly tried targeting Marilyn Manson for school violence, and pretty much steals the show. Sorry for the delayed reply, I really enjoy watching you guys.
@@pedrofernando94 Ugh, "Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher". That lazy faux-liberal fucker is still on TV with his cavalcade of irresponsible platforming, for some reason. I'm a progressive, and I can't stand the man, because he claims to speak for the left and makes us look like the shallow privileged ignoramuses the right likes to pretend we are. If you need an example of the extreme sloth I'm referring to, he literally said, on his show, "Why do people need the Internet? I have 3 researchers who look things up for me. Why don't people just do that?". I mean, how stupid would you have to be to say something that obviously nonsensical out loud, let alone on international TV on a show with your fucking name in the title?
One of my all time favorite songs, yes incredibly simple to play. This song is really about the fascism of beauty and the strangle hold that beauty standards has on self esteem. The beautiful people are really the ones who society would consider ugly, and the horrible people are the ones who make you feel less of a human, because of your lack of meeting their standards of beauty. Their band names were a combination of celebrities and serial killers to illustrate how the media glorifies both types. One of my favorite quotes by him is; when asked about what he thought about people burning his merchandise " they can crush them up and snort them for all I care, so long as they pay for them first."
Believe me in the mid 90s he was scary I remember a friend giving the album away because he thought it was sacrilege and I felt a little off talking it when I was a Catholic still but you have to put into context and the time he came out....hes actually very smart when you hear him talk
Marilyn Manson is my heart. He is so smart, and honestly can be funny in candid moments, and charismatic. I love the way he attempts to make people think by talking about the hard things. Don't feel sad for him. He is a genius, and he SHOULD keep on making music as long as he wants to. IDK why anyone would tell a person to retire if there are people like me who still love them.
Marilyn Manson was my first concert. 1997 not long after this album came out. There were about 60 or so protesters and a bunch of concert goers started yelling HAAAIIILL SATAAANNNN in a super dramatic fashion and a few of the protesters started crying and yelling prayers at us.
@Doctor Deadman and I'd be proud to go Old Testament on anyone whom know God is real and knows what he stands for, only to choose Satan and demonic evil.
Their brainwashed what do u expect. Argue and argue with them till ur blue in the face and all they have to say is have faith. No scientific knowledge or any common sence included. I’m just supposed to have faith in a hairy man that was gods son😂😂😂 there is no god. God lives within us all because he’s energy. Karma is real and all karma is , is energy. U get what u give out.
Honestly felt Pale Emperor was terrible. Heaven Upside Down was better in my opinion. Nothing can touch his older stuff but High End of the Low was pretty damn close
Whoa, Whoa, Whoa! Manson just released a new album and it was alright, but the one from 2015, The Pale Emperor, might be his best ever. It is great from beginning to end. It's stripped down blues influenced rock/metal and it's fantastic. Check it out or react to a song from it. Third Day Of A Seven Day Binge, Deep Six, or Killing Strangers are my suggestions.
Yeah the last 2 Manson albums have been a big improvement. I have a certain amount of love for some of those middle period, less popular records but they each had their own flaws and didn't fully reach their potential. The last 2 though have been quite the artistic comeback for him.
You must have something stuffed in your ears. TGAoG, The High End of Low and The Pale Emperor were all amazing albums! Born Villain even had some good tracks on it.
While this song in particular is fairly mild, I do think Vin is underselling both his subversiveness as well as the depth of his content - particularly regarding this era of MM. It's true enough that there was no shortage of Evangelicals who assumed the worst from very little; the title of that record, his appearance, etc. But that doesn't mean there weren't more substantial ideas therein or things that weren't truly controversial....even by today's standards. I mean, he was known for giving faux-sermons while ripping apart or lighting bibles, wiping his ass with the American flag, and self-cutting and otherwise mutilating himself, as well as performing sexual acts (including fellatio on another man)....on stage. Of course, there were more controversial acts both before and after his time, but none with his commanding presence and popularity. He was a complete phenomenon of that time that would be hard to explain for anyone who didn't live through it. But putting the stage-antics aside, what he had to say (at least for a couple of records) was not only controversial, but unusually thoughtful. I don't think he was being controversial just to be controversial - of course that was a huge part of his identity. But I think a lot of what he was trying to say had pretty profound artistic merit. And I say that as someone who hasn't liked any of his projects since the turn of the century. At the time when he was writing this record (Antichrist Superstar), he was pretty heavily influenced by the philosophies of Anton LaVey and Nietzsche, and related themes are felt all over the record. Even in a song that seems pretty straight-forward like "The Beautiful People", there's a pretty clear parallel in his dichotomy of beauty/conformity (or celebrity) and freedom to the Nietzschean deconstruction of good and evil vs. good and bad...slave morality vs master morality. And these themes are also layered over a conceptual narrative. There's kind of a story-arch to the album as a whole, putting himself into the role of an (anti)Christ-like figure who is resented, worshiped, misunderstood, and reviled; which is one reason why it's a great candidate for an album listening. But if you're looking for more straightforwardly controversial songs from this album, "Irresponsible Hate Anthem", "Little Horn", "Antichrist Superstar", "The Reflecting God", and "Man That You Fear" are all great candidates. Anyways, sorry for the insanely long comment but I thought it was worth elaborating a bit. Keep up the great work, guys!
Holywood (In the Shadow of the Valley of Death) album is his golden standard. That whole album resonated so strongly at that time, but not near as much as it resonates to now with media, guns, school shootings, etc.
I think the argument could definitely be made that Holy Wood is his most focused, artistically-sound album. I might even agree. In fact, I can still remember first opening the album in a mall parking lot and being incredibly excited after only hearing the opening track. At the time, it was being heralded as a return to form for him; a dip back into his pre-Mechanical-Animals darkness. It's no surprise how popular it was, and remains, with his fans. But, for better or worse, I think his star had already been waning at this point. To be fair to him, I'm not sure if there's anything else he could have done artistically to pull himself back into the firestorm Antichrist Superstar created. So many things, culturally, had to line up for it to be the iconic album that it was. It was the right message, with the right aesthetic, at the right time that solidified its place in musical history. It made more of an impact on my generation than anything else he would subsequently release. I can certainly say it made more of an impact on me. Whether the measure of "impact" is enough to afford it the title of "greatest" among his albums is a much larger conversation. But I think it really has to be given consideration.
Their is no debate for me. It is his best album he's ever made as far as a cohesive message from beginning to end, and he fucking nailed it harder than being nailed on the cross. (pun album cover) Its the one album that basically is the only one relevant to this day compared to his other albums of the 90's, and definitely his last exceptional album until Pale Emperor came along. (to me. the third best album)
I live for comments like this. MM doesn't get the credit he deserves for the depth and complexity of his persona/music, instead he gets caricatured as a troll on society.
Communism is not fascism. Fascism is the merger of corporation and state in a monetary monopoly imposed. Communism is the supposed to be the people taking control to destroy money and take certain social and educational methods to achieve over the time of authoritarian dictatorship an evolution and changing of human behavior to enable final transition into Anarchy - the rule of none but the people themselves via direct democracy ( no leaders ) Fascism acts like communism and communism has authoritarian tendencies but the aim of the two systems is very different, ideally. Fascism is all about authoritarian dictatorship, with no transition; capital and monetism is controlled, but enabled. This is all in theory, however and no society has ever had enough time in either system to see the final intricacies of the system unfurl. Both fall under control of tyrannical leaders though, and that ultimately stifles the ideological path that was idealized via philosophy. Some way must be found to deal with tyranny itself, before a path to any ideal society can be paved.
There is no path to achieve an ideal society, culture, or civilization. Because humans will always be inherently flawed, corrupt, and most importantly, selfish.
To Sori's point about Marilyn not being ''evil enough'': Maybe most of the things you heard about Marilyn out there where due to peoples prejudice, not really because they sat and paid attention to what he has to say.
When he would do interviews for some talk shows, people thought he would be all "I'm satan". But when he was very intelligent and made some good points. via His first on air interview on MTV. Also addressing the rumors about his concerts about harming animals pretty much saying "Why would I do that? I have a pet cat at home." lol Most likely the christians that were protesting his concerts where like "This Album says 'Anti-Christ Superstar'? We must protest!!" lol
I felt the same way when i first heard a manson song. I thought what was the big deal, i didn't find it offensive. But the more i learned about him and his music i saw why and how ridiculous some people reacted towards what he did. That was the mid 90s and they never saw anyone like that under a major record label. And some people are still stuck in the past and still protest against him outside his shows today.
just so you know, quite a bit of the lyrics in that video were wrong. I don't know how or why, they were printed on the inside of the album art for crying out loud
I love how in depth you guys go into lryics, you guys will love these guys their lryics!!!! I've been asking this for awhile now! Archspire - Involuntary Doppelganger Silent Planet - no place to breath (Christan band)
Manson always wants to make people think, whether they actually believe what they believe or if they've been told to. Always wants to challenge society and people. He's so incredibly intelligent while doing it, taht he automatically exposes hypocrites from all over. Even from his "own camp", the nonbelievers. In other words, he encourages people to think for themselves. And like you say, he provides a voice for the outcasts; the people that society don't care about. I love a lot of bands, but I only have three favorites. Marilyn Manson is one of those three. Thank you sooooo much for reacting to this brilliant man's work. Please do more.
I'm a new subscriber but love your reaction videos! A couple of good Marylin songs you need to do are his covers of "Tainted Love" and "You Spin Me Round ". He rocks them for being 80's covers. If you do them, please message me because I would love to see your reactions! PS...unlike other youtubers, thank you for keeping current politics out of your videos other than quick comments. You two are awesome and ROCK!!
My dad was born in 1920 western North Carolina. He was a good ole country Baptist. My mom was born in 1952. She was A Methodist from Ohio. I was the seventh child out of two different marriages and came into life in 1987. Myself and friends would listen to all types of music. Like I said before. I am not Christian or an Atheist. However I do like this village. You two keep it going! If I requested a song would you two be up for it? Get Lifted Live by the Swedish Band Truckfighters. Once again love the discourse.
Marylin Manson didn't pave the way for behemoth because behemoth is from Poland and I think started near the 90's so behemoth was influenced by the bands I listed below, the wierd part about it is Poland has blastfamey laws. So for black metal I would recommend Burzum(Norwegian)- Ea, lord of the depths Mayhem(Norwegian)- funeral fog, dom de satanhas mysterious Dark throne(Norwegian)- transavainan hunger Venom(England)- Nightmare
I honestly love listening to your song analysis so much. I've been listening to this song for over 20 years and I never really fully understood it until now. Thanks for your good work!
I think you mixed facism and authortarianism. Communism is not Facism they are pretty different ideologies. Facism tends to put traditionalist and nationalist principles over the of communism. Communism that isn't Anarcho communism is authortarianism, facism however can only be a dictatorship. So communism and facism are extremely different as communism is an economic theory and not necessarily authortarian unlike facism which can only be a dictatorship that enforce traditionalasm and nationalism
Conor Cronin the bad thing about fascism isn’t nationalism. That’s just putting your country first. Fascism censors thought and speech. You know, what antifa tries to do
Realistic thought yes, nationalism isn't bad, but to compare i.e conservative nationalism which is moderate versus nationalism in facism is very different. In fact it works agaisnt you, you're just conflating the whole conservatives = facism comparsion which isn't true. I isn't supported Anti-fa they're fighting the wrong fight, let alone they are Anarcho I'm authortarian
The communists were extremely nationalistic both in sovjet and china.. To have communism or socialism you need global control or closed borders. You cant really mix communism and socialism with other ideologies. (Nevermind the fact that neither of theese wannabe intellectual groupwanking ideologies takes any consideration about humans) Anarcho communism works in small scale but if you want true anarchy you have to go to the extremest of rightwing. No goverment, no laws, everyone for themselves.
David Henriksson I'm not doubting that the Soviets and CCP are nationalistic, there's nothing wrong with it. But facism HAS to be nationalistic, communism has had multiple areas where nationalism has been debated or a more global approach i.e Stalins "socialism in one country" Vs Trotsky's "Permanent Revolution" but Marx orginally envisioned a word without borders with mass worker liberation.

Went to see Danzig in '95 in Tampa, FL and the opening acts were Korn and Marilyn Manson. Had no idea who they were that night. Went in as a Danzig fan, came out loving the opening acts!
The song's characteristic element is its repetitive drum track, a five-beat common time pattern played on floor toms, in which swung notes create a jazzy, triplet feel, which goes really well with the Wiemar theme he was going for with the lyrics. That's the genius of the song
lol @ Paved the way for Behemoth. Someone hasn't done their research. Behemoth formed as a band in 1991, Manson's first album wasn't until 94. I don't think MM had any influence on Behemoth. Maybe someone like Alice Cooper could have paved the way for Behemoth, but even that seems like a bit of a stretch since Behemoth aren't really a shock rock band of any sort. Behemoth would have existed with or without Manson, and Grom and Thelema would both be considered classics whether or not Manson existed. Never mind the fact that Poland's initial fame wasn't even with an American audience, and came from a scene that has no real connection to MM. I love ya Vin, but sometimes you say the weirdest things.
you are right , Behemoth is part of the european first wave of black metal , These bands (Behemoth , Mayhem ,immortal ,Bathory ) were influenced (a lot) by an American band called Von anda brazilian band named Sarcofago , Marylin Manson paved the way to band like Deathstars , Darkseeds .....
Sure, but his first album wasn't until '94. It's not like Behemoth hopped on a plane to America to watch local shows in bumfuck nowhere piss bars for inspiration.
Sori isn't ridiculous, she's adorable! Would love to see you two react to "Deflowering the Maidenhead, Displeasuring the Goddess" by Cradle of Filth =^.^=
Behemoth came out in 1991 and Marilyn Manson came out in 1989. But I really doubt Manson had much influence on Behemoth because they were more low-fi black metal in the beginning.
Live in wacken... thats such a good performance and the visuals are spot on. oh and the vocals wow! Ghaal sounds really hardcore there (btw a very beautiful song)
Marilyn Manson is an intelligent provocative artist that tries to make people question everything using their brains and think for themselves using their own heads!
I hate to be that guy but, you were a little off on your description of fascism. Fascism is an example of an extremely right wing authoritarian state characterized by extreme nationalism and very conservative appeals to the good old days when “we were great” rhetoric. What you were describing as fascism is authoritarian communism which is almost the opposite in being an extreme left wing ideology. There is a reason that Russia was against the Axis in WWII on an ideological level and the differences in these two systems is at the root of it.
bryanpetersmith taking a stab at ol trump I see. True fascism is what the extreme left is doing right now. Blocking conservative speakers from talking and masking it behind social justice and feelings. True fascism is what is happening in American universities by censoring ideas and putting false labels on people. The extreme left is what is destroying the idea of democracy in the USA
Exactly this. Fascists and Communists are mortal enemies, they absolutely hate each others guts, it's why Antifa was created in 1930s Germany by Communists and Anarchists. It's also why you had Communists and Socialists in the Spanish Civil War fighting against Franco's Fascist armies. Fascism is quite specific in what it does, and how it acts, and to hand wavingly imply that Communism is Fascist is sooo utterly anti-Historic, I'm frankly really, really disappointed in Vin by this.
Exactly, facism does not equal communism, facism has to be authortarian and communism can be anarchist or authortarian, disspaoitned as well facism is not the word he was looking for, it was authortarianism
I am always a little suspicious when people identifying themselves as Christians are going into metal territory (no, I'm not an atheist, satanist or even pagan. It's more like this: some people are colorblind, I am religion-blind). Many people will never acknowledge metal as an acceptable musical genre and will view it as aggresion-inducing or satanic, or at least as something utterly unlistenable, never even trying to understand it or uncover it's deeper layers of emotions. I checked one of your videos a while ago and expected to see some zealous disgust as to how dirty and brutal metal music is, but was pleasantly surprised when you both showed authentic understanding and fascination. You really seem to enjoy what you're hearing; it's incredible to witness this. ;-) Sadly, it's not that common, at least in my country - music tends to be something to dance to, not a piece of art. And thanks to you I noticed for the first time some nuances in lyrics even in songs I've listened to dozens, if not hundreds, of times (as in "Her Ghost in the Fog" or "Harlequin Forest") ;-) Continue doing the good work! Lengthy and boring entry aside - if you don't mind, I am curious about your opinion on Fallujah - Void Alone. First time I found death metal so brutal and at - the same time - subtle, otherwordly, transcendent, even jazzy. It's something you don't hear every day! (I strongly suggest official lyrics video, as it amplifies that feeling of transcendence). I might yet again find some time and courage to recommend you something, but I'd like to know what you prefer... Brilliance in musicianship or rather in lyrics? Or in what is the music about? Are you willing to react to non-metal? Or instrumental music (obviously not, I guess? :-p )?
Reign of darkness- Thy art is murder (music video) Land of snow and sorrow- Wintersun Carbon phrases- Alkaloid Crushed- Parkway Drive I'm gonna spam this on every video
Yeeeeesssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not even watch it yet buy yesssssssssssssssss. Trent Reznor of nine inch nails produced it. Yeah thats a hint do nine inch nails. I watched manson live around antichrist but seen him on the joint rob zombie tour a few years ago and it was really really sad, a pale shadow of his former self. Rob zombie blew him out of the universe. P.s the sound on that lyrics video was poor. A good song to react to off antichrist is 1996. " anti-people now you have gone to far, here's your anti- christ superstar " and "anti white and anti dope i am the faggot anti pope" sori there is way more to dig into.
You guys are so on the right track with a lot of you analysis of this song but hearing it in context with the rest of the album will help make more sense. A full album reaction might not be that entertaining but if you were to give it a good listen and come back with a review summary, I think that would be interesting.
Well, I actually like Marilyn Manson, but Beautiful People just does nothing for me... i'd give it about the score same as Sori, just slightly higher. On the other hand, I do love a lot of the "Mechanical Animals" album, I just love the atmosphere, it's not about "heaviness", if I want heavy stuff I'm not gonna listen to Marilyn Manson, so songs like "Coma White" or "The Last Day on Earth" are just awesome for me, and that's the Manson I like. But, for Sori, I think she'd definitely enjoy something like "The Fight Song" from Holy Wood more than this. Also, this is your daily automated request for Agalloch - In the Shadow of the Pale Companion.
I love the artist for his old stuff and his history, but man his new stuff is just uninspired. He kinda traded his raw, passionate aggression for seeing how long he can keep that low baritone voice going.
Minimum wage is not a good solution to the problem of the people how needs two jobs to not be kicked out on the streets. However the US got rid of there protection from the employers fury by accepting the "right to work" and not supporting the unions. However in Europe we never gave up our unions, even if there has been pushes for it here (at least in my country). So here we got quite good low income rates even without minimum wages. But currently the world is leaving somewhat managed capitalism and going in to oligarchy or corporatism, strongly lead by the increase in automatization of many areas. So we need to come up with a new economy soon where very few people actually work for a living.
It should also be pointed out that Antichrist Superstar, Mechanical Animals, and Holy Wood all form a 3-part Concept Album/Rock-Opera story called "The Triptych". *(But in reverse order, because he had written Antichrist Superstar and Mechanical Animals as solo stories before Holy Wood)* To give a _very brief_ summary: Holy Wood is about a man named Adam Kadmon who was living in Holy Wood (a themepark-city of rockstars, celebrities, and drug addiction) but was cast out into the Valley of Death when he broke the mold. He decides to lead a rebellion against Holy Wood and rally the other outcasts, but when the rebellion becomes popular enough he becomes just like the people of Holy Wood that he despised. Mechanical Animals is essentially 2 separate stories, and not told in track order (the actual order can be found online). The first is the story of Alpha, a washed up rockstar fresh out of rehab who may or may not be Adam. After sobering up and seeing his fellow rockstars making the same mistakes he beings to view them as "Mechanical Animals", robotic, fake, and always obeying their masters. He meets a girl named Coma White and they have a thing while in rehab, but he's not sure if she's pretending or if she actually likes him for him (not his money). She kills herself before he can find out. The second story is of Omega. He's an androgynous alien who crashlands in the Hol(l)y Wood Hills and is taken to a research lab, they hear that he can sign so they dress him up, pump his veins full of drugs and forces him to start a band called "Omega and the Mechanical Animals". While he's living the high life with his bandmates he becomes cold, numb, and distant believing every human is just as horrible as his producers. He also falls in love with Coma White, but decides that she's just a hallucination from the drugs. He only learns that she's real when he sees her suicide on the news, making him even more Dried Up, Tied, and Dead to the World (Antichrist Superstar song) than ever before. Antichrist Superstar opens at an Omega and the Mechanical Animals concert where they sing "The Irresponsible Hate Anthem". A bullied & despised young boy who's only known as "The Worm" is attending his favorite band, and even has backstage passes! After the show, he goes backstage and meets Omega, who tells him to fuck off because he's not beautiful enough (Beautiful People) nor does he have any drugs to sell (Dried Up, Tied, and Dead to the World). The Worm, hearing his one and only inspiration telling him to get lost, understandably gets lost. He then wallows in self-loathing until he decides to essentially get revenge by becoming even better than Omega. He's constantly sending letters to Omega while he grows and gains popularity (Deformagraphy, Wormboy, then Mister Superstar), asking him - basically - the "why won't you just love/accept me!?" sort of things. The Worm eventually goes through his last metamorphosis but instead of becoming a beautiful butterfly, he becomes "The Angel With The Scabbed Wings" and is the most popular person in the world. Then as he's still too wrapped up in his hatred and revenge, he begins tearing down the world, becoming known as "The Disintegrator" and "The Antichrist Superstar". After destroying all of the world, he's the only one left, and realizes how lonely it is and how revenge and mindless destruction only leads loneliness and self-destruction. The album - no, the trilogy, ends on that note with the quote "When all of your wishes are granted, many of your dreams will be destroyed". And yeah, that was longer then I expected but that's the basic gist. I kind of glosses over Holy Wood but there's 19 songs on that album and I could write a paragraph or two about pretty much every song in the entire Triptych. Of course each song has a meaning outside of the story, but that'd take even longer to dissect. :P Really enjoyed the video and if I applaud whoever read through this entire comment.
Audio slave - Like a stone Chris cornell he died in 2017 and I think this song he created to plan the suicide but this song has long existed.. i think u must react that song
VinAnd Sori Chris Cornell is good friends with Chester Benington (Linkin park Vocalist). and when criss committed suicide, chester is like a broken heart and he always think abour chris... after the incident they released the album "One More Light" and after that Chester committed suicide like his friend ... and I think "One More Light" is a song for chris ... ..
You guys sooo need to react to the band Solution. 45 - "Into Shadow" or "The Close Beyond". Both AMAZING tracks that I know you guys will love! A very underrated band that the reaction community as a whole have yet to review. P.s in love with this channel and cant wait to watch it grow! 💓
Those are good suggestions below but it’s also an immature album the “intensity” you’re looking for will not be found in Marilyn. He was built up as an evil demonic figure head and that’s really a large reason for his massive fame. But his lyrics are pretty mild compared to what you’ve become exposed to. So if you want to hear the violent depraved side of Marylyn listen to his first album.
Eeehh, Smells Like Children wasn't really it's own album as much as it was a remix of Portrait Of An American Family. I think Antichrist Superstar is absolutely the right album to get the understanding of 90s Manson paranoia; just not The Beautiful People. Songs like Angel With The Scabbed Wings, 1996, Antichrist Superstar, The Reflecting God, etc would have been ~much~ better choices. 😉
I think Antichrist superstar was their "most hardcore" album. Although portrait was a much bigger critique of American society hence the name "A Portrait of an American Family"
Manson had a rough few years there but he's a lot more stable now and has had some cool records out. He had a track on the John Wick soundtrack that was fantastic. Absolutely agree with Vin that Manson's appeal and popularity both received a massive boost off the hatedom he attracted/baited. I think what helped as well though was the fact that he was a superb, charismatic showman and larger-than-life character, with a subtly open and welcoming, if acerbic, message. Just discovered your channel and instantly in love, you guys have one new devoted follower. If I can request something, I'd love to know how you guys feel about some of the tech stuff out there in the same sort of vein as Periphery. One of my favourites is Uneven Structure, in particular their two-parter Frost/Hail. Thanks for everything!
I've seen Manson a few times in the last few years. Still putting on good shows. There are people (your evangelicals) that STILL protest and chant outside his shows, even here in California. Check out The Dope Show, No Reflection, Tourniquet, Disposable Teens, and The Nobodies all by MM.
I think you two should dig in to Marilyn Manson's various interviews and stuff and react to that. You will see a different side of him that you could actually appreciate.
I appreciate this side of him too. Wanna link me what you’re referring to ?
Not the op here, but I really like his participation on politically incorrect a old TV show... Forgot the name of the host but he is very well known Bill Maher maybe? Really can't remember the name right now I fell bad for it coz I actually like the guys show that also has his name on it. 🤣🤣
VinAnd Sori ruclips.net/video/_tco6_-yP40/видео.html this is a debate show and Marilyn get targeted a good bit, but Florence Henderson (Mother from The Brady Bunch) also on the show, is also interesting to watch here.
ruclips.net/video/lUdF2CbKIa8/видео.html Bill O'Reilly tried targeting Marilyn Manson for school violence, and pretty much steals the show.
Sorry for the delayed reply, I really enjoy watching you guys.
@@pedrofernando94 Ugh, "Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher". That lazy faux-liberal fucker is still on TV with his cavalcade of irresponsible platforming, for some reason. I'm a progressive, and I can't stand the man, because he claims to speak for the left and makes us look like the shallow privileged ignoramuses the right likes to pretend we are. If you need an example of the extreme sloth I'm referring to, he literally said, on his show, "Why do people need the Internet? I have 3 researchers who look things up for me. Why don't people just do that?".
I mean, how stupid would you have to be to say something that obviously nonsensical out loud, let alone on international TV on a show with your fucking name in the title?
The best thing Marilyn Manson does are his fucked up music videos. You should react to his videos as well
D. R. YES!!
Apple of Sodom
Yea..id rather see the reaction to this actual video lol
Yep, those things are like the best
@D. R. The uncut version.
Marilyn is a very Intellectual person. His songs have deep meanings. He is a painter and takes a lot of time for his music
One of my all time favorite songs, yes incredibly simple to play. This song is really about the fascism of beauty and the strangle hold that beauty standards has on self esteem. The beautiful people are really the ones who society would consider ugly, and the horrible people are the ones who make you feel less of a human, because of your lack of meeting their standards of beauty.
Their band names were a combination of celebrities and serial killers to illustrate how the media glorifies both types.
One of my favorite quotes by him is; when asked about what he thought about people burning his merchandise " they can crush them up and snort them for all I care, so long as they pay for them first."
Believe me in the mid 90s he was scary I remember a friend giving the album away because he thought it was sacrilege and I felt a little off talking it when I was a Catholic still but you have to put into context and the time he came out....hes actually very smart when you hear him talk

Marilyn Manson is my heart. He is so smart, and honestly can be funny in candid moments, and charismatic. I love the way he attempts to make people think by talking about the hard things. Don't feel sad for him. He is a genius, and he SHOULD keep on making music as long as he wants to. IDK why anyone would tell a person to retire if there are people like me who still love them.
Marilyn Manson was my first concert. 1997 not long after this album came out. There were about 60 or so protesters and a bunch of concert goers started yelling HAAAIIILL SATAAANNNN in a super dramatic fashion and a few of the protesters started crying and yelling prayers at us.
And your proud of this?
@@Chrisredfieldlineage I would be.
@Doctor Deadman and I'd be proud to go Old Testament on anyone whom know God is real and knows what he stands for, only to choose Satan and demonic evil.
Honestly, the fact that your sittin there rockin along with Manson gives me a little hope for Christians, generally I have none.
Their brainwashed what do u expect. Argue and argue with them till ur blue in the face and all they have to say is have faith. No scientific knowledge or any common sence included. I’m just supposed to have faith in a hairy man that was gods son😂😂😂 there is no god. God lives within us all because he’s energy. Karma is real and all karma is , is energy. U get what u give out.
@@Catolystc agreed
@@Catolystc that’s a bigoted generalization. Congrats on becoming what you hate. Go watch Star Wars and actually listen to yoda next time.
@@rowlandbuck2703 in becoming what I hate? Sure it’s bigoted comment idc lol. You have faith in lies , I tell myself the truth.
Ok Vin “the pale emperor” was his best album in years. Let’s not be that Marilyn fan that only likes his old stuff.
Deep Six!!!!
Honestly felt Pale Emperor was terrible. Heaven Upside Down was better in my opinion. Nothing can touch his older stuff but High End of the Low was pretty damn close
For industrial metal fans, everything past GAoG was "meh" at best.
His lyrics have always been on point, but the music is a huge disappointment.
Well, I won't be that fan because personally I think best Manson songs are covers :P His own stuff is... okayish.
I agree.
Whoa, Whoa, Whoa! Manson just released a new album and it was alright, but the one from 2015, The Pale Emperor, might be his best ever. It is great from beginning to end. It's stripped down blues influenced rock/metal and it's fantastic. Check it out or react to a song from it. Third Day Of A Seven Day Binge, Deep Six, or Killing Strangers are my suggestions.
Yeah the last 2 Manson albums have been a big improvement. I have a certain amount of love for some of those middle period, less popular records but they each had their own flaws and didn't fully reach their potential. The last 2 though have been quite the artistic comeback for him.
Warship My Wreck and The Mephistopheles Of Los Angeles are my suggestions.
Are you for real? His last good album was animals. After that it was just boring and repetitive.
You must have something stuffed in your ears. TGAoG, The High End of Low and The Pale Emperor were all amazing albums! Born Villain even had some good tracks on it.
almost all songs in TGAoG sound the same , it was my last album from him. my opinion
Manson saved more lost kids than any church or religion the last 20 years
Their best lyrics in my opinion are 'Get you gunn', Irresponsible Hate Anthem, Reflecting God, Fight Song or Dope Show! Great reaction as always!
While this song in particular is fairly mild, I do think Vin is underselling both his subversiveness as well as the depth of his content - particularly regarding this era of MM. It's true enough that there was no shortage of Evangelicals who assumed the worst from very little; the title of that record, his appearance, etc. But that doesn't mean there weren't more substantial ideas therein or things that weren't truly controversial....even by today's standards. I mean, he was known for giving faux-sermons while ripping apart or lighting bibles, wiping his ass with the American flag, and self-cutting and otherwise mutilating himself, as well as performing sexual acts (including fellatio on another man)....on stage. Of course, there were more controversial acts both before and after his time, but none with his commanding presence and popularity. He was a complete phenomenon of that time that would be hard to explain for anyone who didn't live through it.
But putting the stage-antics aside, what he had to say (at least for a couple of records) was not only controversial, but unusually thoughtful. I don't think he was being controversial just to be controversial - of course that was a huge part of his identity. But I think a lot of what he was trying to say had pretty profound artistic merit. And I say that as someone who hasn't liked any of his projects since the turn of the century. At the time when he was writing this record (Antichrist Superstar), he was pretty heavily influenced by the philosophies of Anton LaVey and Nietzsche, and related themes are felt all over the record. Even in a song that seems pretty straight-forward like "The Beautiful People", there's a pretty clear parallel in his dichotomy of beauty/conformity (or celebrity) and freedom to the Nietzschean deconstruction of good and evil vs. good and bad...slave morality vs master morality.
And these themes are also layered over a conceptual narrative. There's kind of a story-arch to the album as a whole, putting himself into the role of an (anti)Christ-like figure who is resented, worshiped, misunderstood, and reviled; which is one reason why it's a great candidate for an album listening. But if you're looking for more straightforwardly controversial songs from this album, "Irresponsible Hate Anthem", "Little Horn", "Antichrist Superstar", "The Reflecting God", and "Man That You Fear" are all great candidates.
Anyways, sorry for the insanely long comment but I thought it was worth elaborating a bit. Keep up the great work, guys!
Ryan Wills agreed. Great post
Holywood (In the Shadow of the Valley of Death) album is his golden standard. That whole album resonated so strongly at that time, but not near as much as it resonates to now with media, guns, school shootings, etc.
I think the argument could definitely be made that Holy Wood is his most focused, artistically-sound album. I might even agree. In fact, I can still remember first opening the album in a mall parking lot and being incredibly excited after only hearing the opening track. At the time, it was being heralded as a return to form for him; a dip back into his pre-Mechanical-Animals darkness. It's no surprise how popular it was, and remains, with his fans.
But, for better or worse, I think his star had already been waning at this point. To be fair to him, I'm not sure if there's anything else he could have done artistically to pull himself back into the firestorm Antichrist Superstar created. So many things, culturally, had to line up for it to be the iconic album that it was. It was the right message, with the right aesthetic, at the right time that solidified its place in musical history. It made more of an impact on my generation than anything else he would subsequently release. I can certainly say it made more of an impact on me.
Whether the measure of "impact" is enough to afford it the title of "greatest" among his albums is a much larger conversation. But I think it really has to be given consideration.
Their is no debate for me. It is his best album he's ever made as far as a cohesive message from beginning to end, and he fucking nailed it harder than being nailed on the cross. (pun album cover) Its the one album that basically is the only one relevant to this day compared to his other albums of the 90's, and definitely his last exceptional album until Pale Emperor came along. (to me. the third best album)
I live for comments like this. MM doesn't get the credit he deserves for the depth and complexity of his persona/music, instead he gets caricatured as a troll on society.
Communism is not fascism. Fascism is the merger of corporation and state in a monetary monopoly imposed. Communism is the supposed to be the people taking control to destroy money and take certain social and educational methods to achieve over the time of authoritarian dictatorship an evolution and changing of human behavior to enable final transition into Anarchy - the rule of none but the people themselves via direct democracy ( no leaders ) Fascism acts like communism and communism has authoritarian tendencies but the aim of the two systems is very different, ideally. Fascism is all about authoritarian dictatorship, with no transition; capital and monetism is controlled, but enabled. This is all in theory, however and no society has ever had enough time in either system to see the final intricacies of the system unfurl. Both fall under control of tyrannical leaders though, and that ultimately stifles the ideological path that was idealized via philosophy. Some way must be found to deal with tyranny itself, before a path to any ideal society can be paved.
There is no path to achieve an ideal society, culture, or civilization.
Because humans will always be inherently flawed, corrupt, and most importantly, selfish.

Marilyn Manson - The reflecting god
To Sori's point about Marilyn not being ''evil enough'':
Maybe most of the things you heard about Marilyn out there where due to peoples prejudice, not really because they sat and paid attention to what he has to say.
Marilyn Manson just said in an interview that he pissed in Korn's catering and Rob Zombie was sitting next to him like "wtf"? Super awkward.
Michael Anderson hell I would be too.he was Smart not to piss on Danzigs shit he would've gotten his ass beat haha!
Hating me is conforming .... Well Danzig acts really hardcore but he has alot of mouth to write the check that his fist just cant cash
Hating me is conforming he did have sex on danzig's tour bus though.
Hating me is conforming Sounds like something he would do. Definitely made me laugh
Don't know him, obviously, but it sounds exactly as something he would say just to stir shit up. He is all about that.
POWERFUL VIN&SORI !! I knew you'd eventually get to this, keep it up!
Marilyn Manson Dope Show has a good message.
I just started watching your channel and I really appreciate the level of insight that you guys display in your reactions!
When he would do interviews for some talk shows, people thought he would be all "I'm satan". But when he was very intelligent and made some good points. via His first on air interview on MTV. Also addressing the rumors about his concerts about harming animals pretty much saying "Why would I do that? I have a pet cat at home." lol
Most likely the christians that were protesting his concerts where like "This Album says 'Anti-Christ Superstar'? We must protest!!" lol
I've owned this album for 20 years and yes it's worth listening to from beginning to end. It's Manson's best album.
100%
That whole record is good. A live listen to the whole thing would be awesome.
I felt the same way when i first heard a manson song. I thought what was the big deal, i didn't find it offensive. But the more i learned about him and his music i saw why and how ridiculous some people reacted towards what he did. That was the mid 90s and they never saw anyone like that under a major record label. And some people are still stuck in the past and still protest against him outside his shows today.

I love that song there is a real creepy live performance of it

Manson always wants to make people think, whether they actually believe what they believe or if they've been told to. Always wants to challenge society and people. He's so incredibly intelligent while doing it, taht he automatically exposes hypocrites from all over. Even from his "own camp", the nonbelievers. In other words, he encourages people to think for themselves. And like you say, he provides a voice for the outcasts; the people that society don't care about. I love a lot of bands, but I only have three favorites. Marilyn Manson is one of those three. Thank you sooooo much for reacting to this brilliant man's work. Please do more.
I'm a new subscriber but love your reaction videos! A couple of good Marylin songs you need to do are his covers of "Tainted Love" and "You Spin Me Round ". He rocks them for being 80's covers. If you do them, please message me because I would love to see your reactions! PS...unlike other youtubers, thank you for keeping current politics out of your videos other than quick comments. You two are awesome and ROCK!!
My dad was born in 1920 western North Carolina. He was a good ole country Baptist. My mom was born in 1952. She was A Methodist from Ohio. I was the seventh child out of two different marriages and came into life in 1987. Myself and friends would listen to all types of music. Like I said before. I am not Christian or an Atheist. However I do like this village. You two keep it going! If I requested a song would you two be up for it? Get Lifted Live by the Swedish Band Truckfighters. Once again love the discourse.

This is for you, Sori.
Manson is one of the intelligent persons in the media industry. If you want to know about him, check out his interviews.
Thx! -Sori🤟🏻
mOBSCENE by Marilyn Manson??
Marylin Manson didn't pave the way for behemoth because behemoth is from Poland and I think started near the 90's so behemoth was influenced by the bands I listed below, the wierd part about it is Poland has blastfamey laws.
So for black metal I would recommend
Burzum(Norwegian)- Ea, lord of the depths
Mayhem(Norwegian)- funeral fog, dom de satanhas mysterious
Dark throne(Norwegian)- transavainan hunger
Venom(England)- Nightmare

I honestly love listening to your song analysis so much. I've been listening to this song for over 20 years and I never really fully understood it until now. Thanks for your good work!
I think you mixed facism and authortarianism. Communism is not Facism they are pretty different ideologies. Facism tends to put traditionalist and nationalist principles over the of communism. Communism that isn't Anarcho communism is authortarianism, facism however can only be a dictatorship. So communism and facism are extremely different as communism is an economic theory and not necessarily authortarian unlike facism which can only be a dictatorship that enforce traditionalasm and nationalism
Conor Cronin the bad thing about fascism isn’t nationalism. That’s just putting your country first. Fascism censors thought and speech. You know, what antifa tries to do
Realistic thought yes, nationalism isn't bad, but to compare i.e conservative nationalism which is moderate versus nationalism in facism is very different. In fact it works agaisnt you, you're just conflating the whole conservatives = facism comparsion which isn't true. I isn't supported Anti-fa they're fighting the wrong fight, let alone they are Anarcho I'm authortarian
You seem to mistake patriotism with nationalism.
The communists were extremely nationalistic both in sovjet and china..
To have communism or socialism you need global control or closed borders. You cant really mix communism and socialism with other ideologies.
(Nevermind the fact that neither of theese wannabe intellectual groupwanking ideologies takes any consideration about humans)
Anarcho communism works in small scale but if you want true anarchy you have to go to the extremest of rightwing. No goverment, no laws, everyone for themselves.
David Henriksson I'm not doubting that the Soviets and CCP are nationalistic, there's nothing wrong with it. But facism HAS to be nationalistic, communism has had multiple areas where nationalism has been debated or a more global approach i.e Stalins "socialism in one country" Vs Trotsky's "Permanent Revolution" but Marx orginally envisioned a word without borders with mass worker liberation.

Went to see Danzig in '95 in Tampa, FL and the opening acts were Korn and Marilyn Manson. Had no idea who they were that night. Went in as a Danzig fan, came out loving the opening acts!
Did you just say Marilyn Manson paved the way for Behemoth...?
The song's characteristic element is its repetitive drum track, a five-beat common time pattern played on floor toms, in which swung notes create a jazzy, triplet feel, which goes really well with the Wiemar theme he was going for with the lyrics. That's the genius of the song
lol @ Paved the way for Behemoth. Someone hasn't done their research. Behemoth formed as a band in 1991, Manson's first album wasn't until 94. I don't think MM had any influence on Behemoth. Maybe someone like Alice Cooper could have paved the way for Behemoth, but even that seems like a bit of a stretch since Behemoth aren't really a shock rock band of any sort. Behemoth would have existed with or without Manson, and Grom and Thelema would both be considered classics whether or not Manson existed. Never mind the fact that Poland's initial fame wasn't even with an American audience, and came from a scene that has no real connection to MM.
I love ya Vin, but sometimes you say the weirdest things.
you are right , Behemoth is part of the european first wave of black metal ,
These bands (Behemoth , Mayhem ,immortal ,Bathory ) were influenced (a lot) by an American band called Von
anda brazilian band named Sarcofago ,
Marylin Manson paved the way to band like Deathstars , Darkseeds .....
Yeah this made me chuckle too. Manson wouldn't have had any influence on Behemoth.
Marlyn Manson was around in the late 80's and early 90's.
Sure, but his first album wasn't until '94. It's not like Behemoth hopped on a plane to America to watch local shows in bumfuck nowhere piss bars for inspiration.
we cant say he was around since then if in 1989 he was in high school and had no other popularity than a rock
The video really needs to go hand in hand with this. Not really a Manson fan but the video for this is one of my favourite music videos ever.

I wasn't expecting you'd give Marilyn Manson the main stage, Vin, but since you did I'll give you, let's say, 10. : )
Marilyn Manson - tattooed in reverse or say10.
When music was dangerous, iconic, thoughtful and unforgettable. The 90s pushed it as far as it could go.
Yeah when he was really good ! I miss that manson! Good stuff 👍🏼 react to “coma white ”

Sori isn't ridiculous, she's adorable! Would love to see you two react to "Deflowering the Maidenhead, Displeasuring the Goddess" by Cradle of Filth =^.^=
Behemoth came out in 1991 and Marilyn Manson came out in 1989. But I really doubt Manson had much influence on Behemoth because they were more low-fi black metal in the beginning.

The Beautiful People was substance, kickass and ...love the poetic ending, Vin. Very fitting :).
I hate to be that guy but, you were a little off on your description of fascism. Fascism is an example of an extremely right wing authoritarian state characterized by extreme nationalism and very conservative appeals to the good old days when “we were great” rhetoric. What you were describing as fascism is authoritarian communism which is almost the opposite in being an extreme left wing ideology. There is a reason that Russia was against the Axis in WWII on an ideological level and the differences in these two systems is at the root of it.
well, maybe different roots, same outcome... millions of people dead, the state suppressing the populus, both suck. lets leave it at that.
Wait,huh?
bryanpetersmith taking a stab at ol trump I see. True fascism is what the extreme left is doing right now. Blocking conservative speakers from talking and masking it behind social justice and feelings. True fascism is what is happening in American universities by censoring ideas and putting false labels on people. The extreme left is what is destroying the idea of democracy in the USA
Exactly this. Fascists and Communists are mortal enemies, they absolutely hate each others guts, it's why Antifa was created in 1930s Germany by Communists and Anarchists. It's also why you had Communists and Socialists in the Spanish Civil War fighting against Franco's Fascist armies. Fascism is quite specific in what it does, and how it acts, and to hand wavingly imply that Communism is Fascist is sooo utterly anti-Historic, I'm frankly really, really disappointed in Vin by this.
Exactly, facism does not equal communism, facism has to be authortarian and communism can be anarchist or authortarian, disspaoitned as well facism is not the word he was looking for, it was authortarianism
Also, in regards to the minimum wage thing... the average cost of living in the US is below the national poverty line.
Rammstein - Sonne :D
Marilyn Mason was big world wide with out some people burning records. One of the most inteligent guys out there.
Marilyn Manson did NOT pave the way for Behemoth!... what the hell are you talking about?
My thoughts exactly. Behemoth was blasting out in Poland before manson even had a spotlight.
The phrase, "the beautiful people," is most likely derived from the Beatles' song Baby, You're a Rich Man. Check it out.
I am always a little suspicious when people identifying themselves as Christians are
going into metal territory (no, I'm not an atheist, satanist or even pagan. It's more
like this: some people are colorblind, I am religion-blind). Many people will never
acknowledge metal as an acceptable musical genre and will view it as aggresion-inducing
or satanic, or at least as something utterly unlistenable, never even trying to
understand it or uncover it's deeper layers of emotions. I checked one of your videos a while ago and expected to see
some zealous disgust as to how dirty and brutal metal music is, but was pleasantly
surprised when you both showed authentic understanding and fascination. You really seem
to enjoy what you're hearing; it's incredible to witness this. ;-) Sadly, it's not that common, at least in my country - music
tends to be something to dance to, not a piece of art.
And thanks to you I noticed for the first time some nuances in lyrics even in songs I've
listened to dozens, if not hundreds, of times (as in "Her Ghost in the Fog" or "Harlequin
Forest") ;-) Continue doing the good work!
Lengthy and boring entry aside - if you don't mind, I am curious about your opinion on
Fallujah - Void Alone. First time I found death metal so brutal and at - the same time -
subtle, otherwordly, transcendent, even jazzy. It's something you don't hear every day!
(I strongly suggest official lyrics video, as it amplifies that feeling of
transcendence).
I might yet again find some time and courage to recommend you something, but I'd like to
know what you prefer... Brilliance in musicianship or rather in lyrics? Or in what is the
music about? Are you willing to react to non-metal? Or instrumental music (obviously not,
I guess? :-p )?

Yeeeeesssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not even watch it yet buy yesssssssssssssssss. Trent Reznor of nine inch nails produced it. Yeah thats a hint do nine inch nails. I watched manson live around antichrist but seen him on the joint rob zombie tour a few years ago and it was really really sad, a pale shadow of his former self. Rob zombie blew him out of the universe. P.s the sound on that lyrics video was poor. A good song to react to off antichrist is 1996. " anti-people now you have gone to far, here's your anti- christ superstar " and "anti white and anti dope i am the faggot anti pope" sori there is way more to dig into.
You guys are so on the right track with a lot of you analysis of this song but hearing it in context with the rest of the album will help make more sense. A full album reaction might not be that entertaining but if you were to give it a good listen and come back with a review summary, I think that would be interesting.
Hozier “take me to church”
He also did the intro for a show that I cant remember. Now I remember it. Show was called Salem and the song is called Cupid Carrie's A Gun.
Well, I actually like Marilyn Manson, but Beautiful People just does nothing for me... i'd give it about the score same as Sori, just slightly higher.
On the other hand, I do love a lot of the "Mechanical Animals" album, I just love the atmosphere, it's not about "heaviness", if I want heavy stuff I'm not gonna listen to Marilyn Manson, so songs like "Coma White" or "The Last Day on Earth" are just awesome for me, and that's the Manson I like. But, for Sori, I think she'd definitely enjoy something like "The Fight Song" from Holy Wood more than this.
Also, this is your daily automated request for Agalloch - In the Shadow of the Pale Companion.
Its suppose to be Theres A time to discriminate, not No time to discrimintate.
97warlock ismyname you're wrong. I have the album.
I love the artist for his old stuff and his history, but man his new stuff is just uninspired. He kinda traded his raw, passionate aggression for seeing how long he can keep that low baritone voice going.
Jack Kelley nah, listen to Tattooed in Reverse and get back to me.

First video from you guys, subbed. You 2 are cutes lol. Ima spend this afternoon marathoning your content. :3
Minimum wage is not a good solution to the problem of the people how needs two jobs to not be kicked out on the streets.
However the US got rid of there protection from the employers fury by accepting the "right to work" and not supporting the unions.
However in Europe we never gave up our unions, even if there has been pushes for it here (at least in my country). So here we got quite good low income rates even without minimum wages.
But currently the world is leaving somewhat managed capitalism and going in to oligarchy or corporatism, strongly lead by the increase in automatization of many areas.
So we need to come up with a new economy soon where very few people actually work for a living.
Excellent point
It should also be pointed out that Antichrist Superstar, Mechanical Animals, and Holy Wood all form a 3-part Concept Album/Rock-Opera story called "The Triptych".
*(But in reverse order, because he had written Antichrist Superstar and Mechanical Animals as solo stories before Holy Wood)*
To give a _very brief_ summary:
Holy Wood is about a man named Adam Kadmon who was living in Holy Wood (a themepark-city of rockstars, celebrities, and drug addiction) but was cast out into the Valley of Death when he broke the mold. He decides to lead a rebellion against Holy Wood and rally the other outcasts, but when the rebellion becomes popular enough he becomes just like the people of Holy Wood that he despised.
Mechanical Animals is essentially 2 separate stories, and not told in track order (the actual order can be found online). The first is the story of Alpha, a washed up rockstar fresh out of rehab who may or may not be Adam. After sobering up and seeing his fellow rockstars making the same mistakes he beings to view them as "Mechanical Animals", robotic, fake, and always obeying their masters. He meets a girl named Coma White and they have a thing while in rehab, but he's not sure if she's pretending or if she actually likes him for him (not his money). She kills herself before he can find out.
The second story is of Omega. He's an androgynous alien who crashlands in the Hol(l)y Wood Hills and is taken to a research lab, they hear that he can sign so they dress him up, pump his veins full of drugs and forces him to start a band called "Omega and the Mechanical Animals". While he's living the high life with his bandmates he becomes cold, numb, and distant believing every human is just as horrible as his producers. He also falls in love with Coma White, but decides that she's just a hallucination from the drugs. He only learns that she's real when he sees her suicide on the news, making him even more Dried Up, Tied, and Dead to the World (Antichrist Superstar song) than ever before.
Antichrist Superstar opens at an Omega and the Mechanical Animals concert where they sing "The Irresponsible Hate Anthem". A bullied & despised young boy who's only known as "The Worm" is attending his favorite band, and even has backstage passes! After the show, he goes backstage and meets Omega, who tells him to fuck off because he's not beautiful enough (Beautiful People) nor does he have any drugs to sell (Dried Up, Tied, and Dead to the World). The Worm, hearing his one and only inspiration telling him to get lost, understandably gets lost. He then wallows in self-loathing until he decides to essentially get revenge by becoming even better than Omega. He's constantly sending letters to Omega while he grows and gains popularity (Deformagraphy, Wormboy, then Mister Superstar), asking him - basically - the "why won't you just love/accept me!?" sort of things.
The Worm eventually goes through his last metamorphosis but instead of becoming a beautiful butterfly, he becomes "The Angel With The Scabbed Wings" and is the most popular person in the world. Then as he's still too wrapped up in his hatred and revenge, he begins tearing down the world, becoming known as "The Disintegrator" and "The Antichrist Superstar". After destroying all of the world, he's the only one left, and realizes how lonely it is and how revenge and mindless destruction only leads loneliness and self-destruction. The album - no, the trilogy, ends on that note with the quote "When all of your wishes are granted, many of your dreams will be destroyed".
And yeah, that was longer then I expected but that's the basic gist. I kind of glosses over Holy Wood but there's 19 songs on that album and I could write a paragraph or two about pretty much every song in the entire Triptych. Of course each song has a meaning outside of the story, but that'd take even longer to dissect. :P
Really enjoyed the video and if I applaud whoever read through this entire comment.

Chris Cornell is good friends with Chester Benington (Linkin park Vocalist). and when criss committed suicide, chester is like a broken heart and he always think abour chris... after the incident they released the album "One More Light" and after that Chester committed suicide like his friend ...
and I think "One More Light" is a song for chris ...

You guys sooo need to react to the band Solution. 45 - "Into Shadow" or "The Close Beyond". Both AMAZING tracks that I know you guys will love! A very underrated band that the reaction community as a whole have yet to review. P.s in love with this channel and cant wait to watch it grow! 💓
Sorri his first two albums were more intense.
Oh really? Which song was the most intense? -Sori✌🏻
VinAnd Sori get your gunn. Also, check out lunchbox or dope hat.
Those are good suggestions below but it’s also an immature album the “intensity” you’re looking for will not be found in Marilyn. He was built up as an evil demonic figure head and that’s really a large reason for his massive fame. But his lyrics are pretty mild compared to what you’ve become exposed to. So if you want to hear the violent depraved side of Marylyn listen to his first album.
Eeehh, Smells Like Children wasn't really it's own album as much as it was a remix of Portrait Of An American Family.
I think Antichrist Superstar is absolutely the right album to get the understanding of 90s Manson paranoia; just not The Beautiful People.
Songs like Angel With The Scabbed Wings, 1996, Antichrist Superstar, The Reflecting God, etc would have been ~much~ better choices. 😉
I think Antichrist superstar was their "most hardcore" album. Although portrait was a much bigger critique of American society hence the name "A Portrait of an American Family"
It’s not your fault that you’re always wrong The weak ones are their to justify the strong. That lyric is 🔥
Please do you a reaction video on Limerent Death by The Dillinger Escape Plan thank you!!!
YES
his first 3 cds tell a story backwords from cd 3 to 2 to 1. another super music genius.
react to Bathory-Enter The Eternal Fire
Manson had a rough few years there but he's a lot more stable now and has had some cool records out. He had a track on the John Wick soundtrack that was fantastic.
Absolutely agree with Vin that Manson's appeal and popularity both received a massive boost off the hatedom he attracted/baited. I think what helped as well though was the fact that he was a superb, charismatic showman and larger-than-life character, with a subtly open and welcoming, if acerbic, message.
Just discovered your channel and instantly in love, you guys have one new devoted follower. If I can request something, I'd love to know how you guys feel about some of the tech stuff out there in the same sort of vein as Periphery. One of my favourites is Uneven Structure, in particular their two-parter Frost/Hail. Thanks for everything!
React to Architects - A Match Made in Heaven

React to ill niño is a awesome band
Ferdinand Cruz to often bands are a let down live. but I wasn't expecting much from Il nino. They absolutely blew me away :)
I've seen Manson a few times in the last few years. Still putting on good shows. There are people (your evangelicals) that STILL protest and chant outside his shows, even here in California. Check out The Dope Show, No Reflection, Tourniquet, Disposable Teens, and The Nobodies all by MM.
