I'm not a fan of his music, and he freaks me out a bit. However, I don't think he's the incarnation of the devil as most fundamentalist Christians would have everyone to believe. And yes, he and Evan Rachel Wood have been dating for almost a year now, I believe. She's a lot younger than him, I know. I think she's my age.

 

[DaveC]

I don't like his music.

Beyond that, I don't really care

 

[Screwtape2]

I'm not a fan of his music but he is a very intelligent and deep person. He makes art that challenges the norm and I admire that while still not being a fan of it. I hope he keeps it up.

 

[JCOSTER]

He scares me.

 

[EdgeIsTooSexy]

He freaks me out...alot

I'd love to see Manson and 80's Boy George battle it out in a cage to settle who is indeed the bigger contrived freak.


Manson's pretty harmless. His music is Ok, but it doesn't really stand out as anything exceptional.

Yep.

 

[MrPryck2U]

Aww, Angel, what happened to your cute little picture?

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

I remember when he first came out (I saw them open for Nine Inch Nails in 93 or 94 I think) and they were cool...

Now he's just kind of dumb...

 

[The Sad Punk]

You do not need to think about them.

(it's the name of the band rather, isn't it?)

 

[tiny dancer]

Yep.

Ditto

 

[mysterious_jen]

i was really into them / him a while back, and thought about going to the upcomming shows in oz , then i thought NOT .

I think he tries too hard. To me he has always come across as contrived. And his music has never really appealed to me, so I don't really follow anything he does.

 

[Saracene]

From the interviews I've read, he sounds like an articulate, intelligent guy. His music though is pretty unexceptional and his brand of outrageous public persona IMO doesn't really have any lasting power beyond the initial shock.

[intedomine]

Looks like a wanker, and his music don't impress me much. But he could be a decent "bloke".

 

[coemgen]

Saracene's right. When you rely on shock, people see through it eventually.

I think we're at that point now. It's time to play golf with Alice Cooper.

 

[ShipOfFools]

Manson's early music was excellent, but he's let himself slip over the past couple of years. His most recent album wasn't all that great.

I try to stay out of his private life, though. I just enjoy the music.

 

[MsMofoGone]

He disgusts me to the point of sick, very sick !!
