Fuck, i love the guitar tone on this album, has that 90s Alt Rock/Metal vibe to it! No other Manson album sounds like this, but the first albums were all quite different from each other, which really made him great. Gotta go further with his discog sometime.

this album is ever interesting to listen to, it's got weird sounds, great vocals, even after all these years it's fresh sounds to me and I like it better than pre-Reznor mixes even if I like those for example in the Manson Family album

It's better because he has some kind of underground, interesting sound. This is exactly what Marilyn Manson & The Spooky Kids do. Anichrist Supestar is already more serious work, experimental.

I don't hear anything "experimental" in it, but i might have to relisten once again, not because i'm expecting to hear anything like that this time either, but because some albums need more time.

The experiments are that they decided to go in a more progressive, lyrical direction.

Mainstream Manson albums are close to people. This album is super cool. Like some kind of horror glam punk. An album that I once listened to a lot on cassette

I love this album : the music , the vocals (the vocals for these songs live on Dead to the World tour were even better) the lyrics, the booklet images for this album, is one my favourite, maybe my fav

https://youtu.be/VQvdERt6ijw A very interesting video showing the sources for all the samples used on this album. I had kind of ignorantly assumed that the band had recorded lots of the "dialogue" bits of the album in studio. but it seems to be heavily sourced from Willy Wonka, (a given with Manson tbh,) Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, weird 70s movies, and stuff like Bud Dwyer's suicide. Pretty fascinating insight when listening to the album!

Мэнсон у всех ассоциируется с серьёзными работами ,который звучат прогрессивней ,а это скорее работа Marilyn Manson & The Spooky Kids, ибо она звучит андерграундно ,и альбом ближе к хоррор глэм-панку ,чем к тому ,что они играли потом. Для элиты альбом так сказать!

It has a strong industrial metal/rock feel for sure. Mainly due to the keys/samples/loops, and general noisiness of the music.

1998 I was a young high school kid with piercings and long black hair hanging out alone in a shopping mall after school around christmas time in New Zealand. I was sat on a bench when a guy approached me, he looked like Charles Manson, bare feet, long dirty brown hair, beard etc.. he had a wad of cash in his hands and he handed me $20NZ and said "Merry Christmas!!" I was taken aback by suprise and said "wha? what for?" and he said "I'm fuckin' Santa Claus mate!" and walked off. I went straight into a record store and bought this album with the $20 he gave me. I read in the paper a few days later this guy had robbed a bank and went and handed out the money to people and I was one of the lucky few :)

La piedra angular de Manson.... de a poco se comenzaba a transformar en el Anticristo... Cake And Sodomy, Lunchbox, Get Your Gunn, My Monkey, Dope Hat son clásicos del disco.... Pero igualmente Organ Grinder, Dogma, Sweet Tooth, Misery Machine y todo el disco debe ser escuchado..... Discazo!!!

it's got the best lyrics, riffs, use of samples & 'horror' atmosphere of all his albums, it's clearly the best of his work by a good distance IMO (-; the bass (Gidget!) is the secret ingredient that was missing hereafter IMO, as much as the guitar...
