Not a whole lot of variation, just industrial gloom all the way through. It would be fine if this was a 30-40 minute album, but it’s way too long, and there’s a lot of filler here. Honestly needed a break halfway through.

Brian Warner is by all accounts a pretty shitty human being. Difficult to separate the "artist" from the "art", when his stage persona and narrator are equally pretty shitty. The album is also pretty shitty.

This album contains a song about beautiful people written by one of music’s ugliest personalities.

nein. ich finds auch nicht so dolle

Not a fan.

Ógeð

Glam heavy metal is still heavy metal. I can only take it in small doses.

can't listen to marylin Manson ever since he called that dude from smashing pumpkins a zipperhead my perception of him is forever ruined

Marilyn Manson seems like a joke to me.

No thanks.

Lauter Schrott.

Y'know, I didn't like MM's schtick when I was a teenager, and I like it even less now. Plus there's been too many questionable human beings in the list this week. So I'm giving my lowest mark yet.

I'm pretty sure Trent Reznor now bitterly regrets ever having associated his name with this pathetic clown. But even before the accusations of psychological and sexual abuse, even before all those unsavory extramusical events surrounding the story of this psycho parading as an "artist", it was so obvious how poorly this music would age in a very short amount of time. Behind the shock glock shtick, behind the lame posturing and the make-up barely concealing the lack of any relevant ideas on a musical standpoint, everything in this record overblown to the extreme actually sounds... bland. To go back to Reznor, what we have here is a third-rate version of Nine Inch Nails at best (knowing the original is not necessarily for everyone anyway). Like horror films that fail to scare their viewers, and are not even fun to watch if you just want to have a good laugh with friends, it's just an embarassing moment. A waste of time. In the age of Korn and Nu-metal, I guess sone teenagers desperately trying to look edgy could fall for this ridiculous circus. I'm also pretty damn sure that 99% of those teenagers now grown to adults never return to this album. Or *any* album by Marilyn Manson--I do seem to remember a few stronger melodies on *Mechanical Animals*, so I might feel generous enough to give that one two stars if it ever pops up here. But no more than that. The only thing that seemed to redeem MM at the time was that it was the target of those Christian fundamentalist lunatics obssessed with dogma and self-repression. Those fanatics obviously can't understand art. But since MM himself doesn't understand what *good* art is, why should we bother trying to redeem him now? Especially today, with all the news... ? Number of albums left to review or just listen to: 900 Number of albums from the list I find relevant enough to be mandatory listens: 52 Albums from the list I *might* include in mine later on: 27 Albums from the list I will certainly *not* include in mine (many others are more important): 22 (including this one)

Wow. It's... edgy? I don't know another way to describe this album. From the first song I felt like it was just trying to be crude and weird for the sake of being crude and weird. There just didn't seem to be any point to the lyrics, at least to me. Not my cup of tea at all. But maybe it would have clicked more if I was an angsty teenager when I listened to it for the first time. I really tried to listen to the whole thing, but it just wasn't in the cards for me.

Definitely don't understand this type of music, maybe you had to be there.

Kao separate the art from the artist al mu art nije nešto tak da nema potrebe. Ponosno dajem svoju prvu jedinicu.

I always try to separate the art from the artist. I can’t really do that here. Manson is as shitty as what he sings about. Fuck him. Fuck his shitty albums.

I felt negative vibes as soon as the first song started. What a load of crap.

Oh ffs...... Idk if I can listen to this One song in, can I turn it off yet? The lyrics are fucking terrible. How os this tapey nerd so popular?

03/02/2022 Didn't listen. Fuck this creep.

Boring ngl

Hated 25 years ago when it got out. Still hated it now that I listened to it again

It took me more than 24 hours to deal with this thing. A lot of pauses. Maybe 1 song was OK.

Didn't even bother

Very bad. 2/10

Whiny tosh

Ugh. Shut up, Brian. I'd rather listen to Skinny Puppy, Nine Inch Nails, Alice Cooper and Pink Floyd.

superkass

Oh, fuckin' hell.

Total trash.

Alleen het bekende nummer pakt me vanwege het tempo en de baslijn, de rest vind ik niet echt spannend

Antichrist Superstar is an unexpectedly cohesive album from a silly shock metal band and will stand as Marilyn Manson's definitive statement.

toma no cu

Hell no

Cringe. Apoio a ideia de fazer música anticristã pra se opor ao status quo, mas esse album é mto cringe.
