      Phenomenal work! Do you think Mr.Manson was "helped" and perhaps a part of a secret society and/or government agency to push certain worldviews? For example: I find it interesting that Marilyn Manson and DMX (who grew up in and out of jail and spent lot of his childhood in "group homes and institutions" ) have Nietzsche worldviews in their lyrics.

      Dude thank you for doing this for us. I think that 20 years later to grab the best cd that he had every single CD that I ever had I think that antichrist superstar was fantastic because of many shows I saw and now that years are going to teach me what I like wished I knew lyrics that I thought were something else and mechanical animals sucked to me until heard over and over and over again. Holywood was 2000 i just got out of jail and I couldn't get down with mechanical but Ill watch it next cause i watched antichrist then this then the last piece and the tarot so I need to be in the right mood cause my boys saw Mechanical animals tour and they gave me the postcard when our buddy introduced them and now with these allegations and 16 lps out now I just never kept up. I would see him again but this was the last show i saw and just as expensive and great that i get why they criticized mechanical tour and the tits outfit so thank you for ging way back and only what like 6 years back too as if you knew these were all i cared about and i subscribed to a kid called forever dirt who then did portrait and his antichrist just a years ago. So we never got the book holy wook just long hard road out of hell but you said one chapter is on his wiki and I watched every movie he was in and the i am your martyr being his best besides sons of anarchy to me. Thank again.😮😮😮😮😮❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

    This is why so many people don’t understand why many people are such big Manson fans. What he did from 96-01 was incredible, artistically speaking. When people look at him now they don’t understand that there is no parallel between his current artistic state and that of the time period prior.

    Also, as musician, "Coma Black" is the same chords and a similar progression and feel as "Coma White". They are almost the same song.
    The "Pill to make you numb..." Is the same melody as "This was never my world...". They are exactly the same, and that's very cool that they mirror each other. The guitar that John plays is very similar as well in both songs.
    Just another cool call back to the other themes. Both are the big "reveal" moment of the story. The revelation of the main characters.
    Just was a cool thing I wanted to point out. Try singing the chorus to White along with Black. They line up perfectly.
    Also the sample of the crowd in "Born Again" is the same as "Irresponsible". Just pitched down to be in key with the song.

      Coma White... Coma Black. Similar? Yeah it's supposed to be similar dude. think of it more like a reprisal of similar thoughts rather than a musical copy with different lyrics on top. You thought hard posting this back when you did, but you missed the point that Mechanical Animals and Holywood are in fact closely related and both great intricately related albums. I would argue they ought to be listened back to back. It's a dark experience, going from desperately hoping technology saves the earth to the same of religion and both fail that makes them interesting. Together, they scream that humanity is the only thing that can save us from ourselves. That is the message the two of these excellent albums delivers.

    With or without the makeup and shock value, this individual and I would be great friends. He is a true thinker-- and he deserves more credit that to be shoveled into the same shit pan as so many other "dope clown" rock stars. One day the world will come to a point where they look back at him as brilliant artist that challenged the world on it's own terms, and ask the scary questions no one else had the courage to. You will be remembered by the ones who matter to you the most Sir, have no fear of being forgotten.

  • @GarrettLoganGriffin
    @GarrettLoganGriffin Рік тому +18

    I remember buying this album in 2000. It was such a victory for me. My parents were religious by association and absolutely put on the act to look better amongst their deeply religious friends and family. I would hear them all talking about Marilyn Manson this, and Marilyn Manson that. Making up or repeating these rumors they had heard from somewhere or someone. All of them just nonsensical. Nothing but gossip. Hearing all of this made me very curious about him. If he was so “evil,” why is he a free man able to make something of himself? It was clear that he was just challenging their beliefs, and it scared them. They had no real response other than being emotional and lashing out to discredit him. He was public enemy #1 during that time. We see that plenty still to this day. When a weak mind has strong beliefs, and they’re challenged, they get so defensive and resort to rage and belittling. For years I’d hear about him. News, people, magazine covers, etc. But at the end of the day, he’s just a guy. How “evil” could he possibly be?
    We were never allowed to listen to him. I kept seeing the advertisements for Holy Wood and I wasn’t going to let it go. I had to have it. My brother and I teamed up and sat my parents down and pleaded our case on why we thought we should be allowed to listen to Marilyn Manson. I was 12 and he was 15. We were very convincing. They said yes. So we went to target and bought it. Listened to it on the way home, and my brother and I stayed in the car to finish it. When I got out of the car I felt like a different person. I was already into rock music, but it was heavier and darker than anything I had ever heard. It just spoke to me on a level nothing else ever had. I absorbed every note. Wore it like a skin.
    That man’s presence in the world during the 90’s and early 2000’s made me feel normal. Made me feel okay. He challenged me to think and he educated me. His music was, and is to this day, important to me. I also think he was the last real “rockstar.” He was the pinnacle of “shock.” I don’t think any artist will ever come along and have the impact that he did. “Everything has been said before. Nothin’ left to say anymore.”
    In my opinion this album is his best work, in every facet and discipline. The imagery, the aesthetic, the meanings/metaphors, the tones/sounds, his vocal performance, etc. Target Audience being my favorite track on it, and probably just my favorite Manson song in general. I don’t believe he’s ever played it live. No videos exist, and I’ve gone through setlist after setlist in the years since this album was released and never found record of him playing it. I wonder why that is.
    This video is fantastic. I appreciate the knowledge and appreciation you have for Manson, as well as the time and effort you put into telling the story of Holy Wood. Brilliantly done. You should be very proud.

    I am a very new Marilyn Manson fan! Just started getting all his music on vinyl. I recently became disabled and everyone including my husband had a favorite artist collection but I did not. I think everyone was shocked and surprised when my request was a Marilyn Manson collection! I love a deep dive into things that peck my interest. I have study and can read tarot cards and have even been to a gnostic mass. I have always had a darkside just like the moon that not everyone knows about. I started studing film on TCM after becoming disabled and that has been a real passion and I now review classic film as well. So when I decided I needed MM in my life it felt perfect for me and I am happy that I found him now and not on the 90's. He has become my guardian angel and I love all of his music but Holy Wood is the best concert I have ever seen in my life and do wish I could been able to go to it but he was just not on my radar at that time. I think I am able to completely understand him is because of my personal life experiences and my knowledge of all the topics that were brought up in your very interesting look at his body of work. I loved watching and finding out even more than I currently understood. It was fascinating and fun to learn the depths of the Trilogy and more.

    I think my favorite song on the whole album is Valentine's Day.
    I really love the ending chorus on Target Audience too, and well, the whole album, but VD ( *Peter Griffin laugh* ) is my favorite. Oh, Burning Flag is a straight up pump song too.
    It's cool learning the details like the Panzram quotes in Nobodies for example. Years ago, like somewhere in the 20 teens, like mid-20 teens, I watched a documentary about Panzram, and that dude first off was a total monster and did some super vile shit, but then again he had some super monstrous violent shit done to him growing up as a child belonging to the state as well.. I remember something like whenever he was incarcerated, the guards couldn't put no one in his cell because he would kill everybody that came in there with him, and the guards were afraid of them because he would even try to hurt and kill them by reaching through the bars for them, but I believe in his final days in prison he became friends somewhat with one of the guards and the guard would bring him stationary to write his thoughts out and stuff.. I'm pretty sure I'm talking about the same guy, otherwise I just sound like an idiot hahaha

    Well... Seen it all, and love it. Im a huge marilyn manson fan, since the beginning, and seeing your work putting all together, my thoughts are that Manson is a genius, and his ideas keep being relevant in today's society, i mean, its almost like he saw the future because the problem are worse nowadays. The problem now is that they manage to cancel manson for now, with outrageous acusations. But Im really still hoping that somehow i can say someday that "I've been to black and back, I've whited out my name" and bring us another diamond like one of the trilogy. Not probably, but it would be a dam good slap on the face of the haters that are making him already guilty before things are well analysed. Manson for ever motherfuckers.

    OMG , as a total and complete fan of Marilyn Manson first four albums in this complete breakdown of the meanings is superbly en lightning. It’s also quite creepy because somehow I got this suggestion and I have been watching a lot of political videos right now mainly Roland Martin. And I just feel like everything Marilyn Manson is saying in his songs is literally what ROLAND Martin is saying on his political views for the last 10 years as well. I just find it super crazy that I used to be so in love with Marilyn Manson as a teenager I had a phase when the Internet first came out. You know back when it was still dial up lol and I would download Marilyn Manson songs, you know back then it took you like 36 hours to download one fucking song lol. But I could only be on the Internet at night time so one summer, I literally didn’t leave the house barely and I was only up until 9 PM to 9 AM so I would not block the phone lines. And I used to dream about Marilyn Manson like every fucking night for a month. I was so in love with him. 😂😂😂

    Wow! This video is EPIC.
    It's honestly mind-blowing the level of knowledge, complexity and detail that went into the making of the Triptych albums. Everytime I watch one of these 'analysis', I find it almost impossible not to feel somewhat stupid next to Manson's intelligence (and the intelligence of the person making said analysis), haha. All that being said, Holy Wood is one of my least favorite MM albums (sorry!). But hear me out. For me it's one of the least relatable. I feel it contains a lot of references that are very USA-cultural-extremely specific, and since I'm not from over there my level of connection with such a topics tends to be mostly superficial.
    Edit: ohhh I forgot. Do you have any plans to analyze any of the other Manson albums? It would be awesome. Thanks!

    • @TheLaunchPadStudio

To be bad you need to pray. Maybe his songs are a prayer. I remember the old show the Younger Years USA. He was a bit different but he has a good heart. He collects Little lunch boxes and crusafixses. See he's singing about God.
