Love Marilyn, Hate Manson, but you can't forget him easily. His greatest strength is his talent as a writer and lyricist, and he is usually criticized by people who have never actually read any of his lyrics - for the content of his lyrics. He also is very innovative with his production and musical engineering (and smart enough to work with Reznor and other talented studio gurus). And the fact is, the level of fame his controversy has elevted him to is something that you can't buy or brew up in some corporate think tank. What ever labels may be cast at MM and the boys in the band - they are the real deal. Rock n Roll has its giants (like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd etc.) and MM has achieved that status in modern music history. He is self proclaimed - " The Better of Two Evils..."

continu from the last post: His music is frequently featured on the show C.S.I.. The character on the show, Greg Sanders, is a big fan of Manson and the actor who plays him, Eric Szmanda is personal friends with Manson. Manson was featured in the 2004 film The Heart Is Deceitful Above All Things, and is set to appear in Abelcain, directed by Alejandro Jodorowsky, and Living Neon Dreams in 2005. He will also be seen as a bartender in an upcoming vampire movie starring Lucy Liu called Rise. In July 2005, Manson told Rolling Stone Magazine that he was shifting his focus from music to filmmaking - "I just don't think the world is worth putting music into right now. I no longer want to make art that other people--particularly record companies--are turning into a product. I just want to make art." He is currently working on his directorial debut, Phantasmagoria: The Visions of Lewis Carroll, which was put on his website around the end of 2006. The film is said to feature special effects using a magician rather than computer-generated imagery.

IN MUSIC: Jessicka of the band "J ack Off Jill" was an early friend of Manson's, her band opened most of his South Florida shows. He not only produced most of the band's early recordings but also played guitar on the song My Cat. Manson also helped name the band. In early 1993, after being instructed by his new label nothing/Interscope not to play any local shows, Manson formed Mrs. Scabtree. Scabtree was a side project between he and newly hired Jeordie White. Manson played drums, while White (dressed as a black woman) shared vocal duties with then girlfriend Jessicka from "J ack Off Jill" who wore a blonde wig. Mrs. Scabtree only played two shows in South Florida. Manson has helped or provided full scores for several major motion pictures, although several of his pieces have been cut, and his name dropped from the credits. Some of his more notable soundtrack score contributions include From Hell, 0The Matrix and Resident Evil. Manson appeared as a guest on rapper DMX's album Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood for the track "The Omen", produced by Swizz Beats, and has performed (with the rest of the band) on stage with Eminem as background music in the song "The Way I Am". Manson sang vocals on "Break You Down" off of the Washington, DC-based industrial rock band Godhead's 2000 Years of Human Error album. This album is distinguished for being the only one released on Manson's vanity label Posthuman.

Brian Warner was born in Canton, Ohio. He attended Heritage Christian School, but was soon turned off from Christianity, which he viewed as hypocritical and more concerned with instilling fear than virtue. He has stated that the Christian vision of the Apocalypse in particular had a lasting effect upon his outlook. After transferring to and later graduating from Canton's GlenOak High School, Warner moved to Fort Lauderdale, Florida with his family. While living in Fort Lauderdale, he studied journalism and theater at Broward Community College, and became the assistant entertainment editor of BCC's student newspaper, the Observer. ...
