    ACS was a great album, but i wonder how much of that was down to Trent Reznors production, and Daisy Berkowitz's guitar playing which had a really unique sound IMO. Wouldn't really listen to MM nowadays tho, bit too morbid for me now that im all grown up :pac:
    Tho Dope Hat, Cake and Sodomy, were great songs, i quite liked portrait.

    Don't hear that much similarity between Fight Song and Beautiful People in riff or beat. Not much more than overall familiarity of sound anyway. If anything I hear more in Disposable Teens.

    I got Holy Wood for Christmas 2000 and I liked it. I also got Slipknot's self-titled album, which I didn't like, and still don't.

    The new album is devastatingly good.

    It's outstanding.
    He has clearly found a new lease of life collaborating with Tyler bates.
    Parting ways with Ramirez was disappointing after all the hype surrounding his return but we can't ignore the facts; for all the good songs on HEOL, it was largely filler, and BV basically passed unnoticed.

    TPE is getting alot of positive attention for what seems to be Mansons abandoning of the more gnarly/metal approach that used to accompany his cultural criticisms.

    As far as I understand they only kept one song featuring Berkowitz on ACS...
    I used to like Manson as a preteen but his overall treatment of bandmembers put me off soon enough. I still remember the Twiggy/John5 blowouts. Two of his 'best friends' and best musicians kicked out over nothing :mad: Pogo and Ginger Fish met similar ends I suppose
