Is Marilyn Manson an intelligent person, far more so than many people believe? Yes. But is he a genius? Not even close.
|
^Not musically anyway. Back in the day he was a genius at scaremongering, particularly to the parents of wee kiddies, now he's a little quiet. His music is alright, the nu-metal style band is nothing fancy but his vocals are pretty good.
And yeah I hear he is quite the intelligent one. Talks at universities and the likes of. |
he seems kinda smart on the bowling for columbine documentary. dont like his music though. not a genius.

He wrote a couple of articles for Rolling Stone...Hes actualy a pretty good writer, and he is certainly much smarter than he looks.
His music however is, meh. |
Manson has a lot of bad press. He's original, some of songs are good. I myself must admit that I went through the Manson Phase. My fave' song of his, if it was a cover or not I don't know, was New S***, and then the remixed version was best, on his single album along with `Personal Jesus`.

Nope never liked marilyn manson never will, but you cant hold it against him for what he believes in...

i think marilyn manson as many of you have said is a very smart man and i respect him standing up for his beliefs no matter how controversial but in a sense he looks for the controversy too much but i am a marilyn manson fan i like his songs hehe
|
^ Here here. Some of his stuff is good - but y'know, he does do a lot of covers. The Tainted Love cover I liked though - but still preferred the original.
|
He's a twat
He had his tail between his legs after Columbine |
Charming. What happend?
|
Seems he shook his satanist routine pretty quickly
From Alice Cooper to David Bowie in just a few months |
either way .. i still like his music.
|
Lol, each to their own.
|
I personally think he's an anti-christ son of a biatch, but there's something dark and seductive in his voice that makes me listen to his music only. I love Tainted Love and Sweet Dreams, even though they are covers, he just made them so eerie and sensual. If I'm ever in an angry music listening day, he's the one. Not that I would ever condone (sp?) his values or actions.
|
while he is a good entertainer and more a performance piece than a true musician, I can;t see anything worthy of being called 'genius' in anything he does.
he crafted an image MTV ran with... |
yes i have to agree he aint a genius jst very clever in wot he does
|
He made some intelligent comments in an interview that I was reading from him. I think he's an intelligent person, and I don't think he's as hardcore as he and the press make out.
|
even the devil can quote scripture to suit his needs
|
Imma quote 7 of you, bare with me...

As for talkin' to Snoop, I kinda think Snoop would slap the taste outta his mouth. As for quoting Nietzsche, I could sit here and quote you Nietzsche, Kung Fu Tze, Rousseau and more all on behalf of my beliefs all day long, that doesn't make me right, smart, or very influencial. Some would still say I'm wrong, crazy, or so on. |
Ingenius? you must be kidding. here is a guy that has relied on shock tactics to sell albums. there was a time when the band were the cool thing to like, now look at the - resorting to covering songs in order to hang onto to the slender fanbase thats left. the music itself is just run of the mill.
|
^^ What he said..
I couldnt have put it better myself... Tainted Love was the only song I would actually listen to by him..and he didnt even write it. |
I heard he's starting a new line of cologne that supposed to smell like, and I quote, "children".
:shycouch: |

Marc Almond did a version, which I hate incidentally. I have to say that Mansons version is the best of all the covers I've heard. I prefer the original hands down, but at least he put a spin on it. |

I don't like his music, but having met him in person on more than one occasion I must say that he is a pretty cool guy.

Don't like the mans music, it's bland, unoriginal and has been done so much better by many bands.
his whole "shock" image is pretty tame aswell imho |
The biggest contributor to Marilyn's populairty is his image.
His music is ok. He did a few cover songs too many if you ask me. The Golden Age of grotesque was ok. His best song is and probably and always will be the Dope Show. He's just not a big thing anymore. (Not to say he ever really was). I think people most know him for his small role in the documentary Bowling for Columbine |
