Marilyn Manson
Imagine Alice Cooper times 10. Picture KISS on an acid and whiskey bender.
Marry the gross-out hilarity of G.G. Allin with the ubiquity of Howard Stern.
Combine the "search and destroy" frenzy of Iggy Pop with the godless zeal of
Ozzy Osbourne. Take two cups of the devil and throw in a pinch of P.T.
Barnum, and you still can't fathom all that is...Marilyn Manson.
Marilyn Manson's brand of shock-rock simply knows no bounds. Since their
discovery by Nine Inch Nails' leader Trent Reznor, Marilyn Manson (the band
and the aliased individual that leads same) has been on a non-stop campaign
of crassness.

Spawning a cult following to rival all others, Manson and his rotating band
of serial-killer sidemen have created a powerful concoction of Satanic
imagery, face-splitting guitars and performance spectacle that has drawn the
ire of countless keepers of the public good.

In true rock form, Manson and his bandmates are cackling all the way to the
bank; their 1996 breakthrough, Antichrist Superstar entered the American
charts at No. 3 and their concert dates continue to sell out around the world
(when not banned altogether).

Marilyn Manson's latest release, Mechancial Animals, was released in the fall
of '98 on Nothing/Interscope Records.

Manson Postpones Final Five Dates
Shock rocker Marilyn Manson lays low in wake of Colorado tragedy

Manson shows a little respect.

Contrary to popular perception, Marilyn Manson is not an insensitive guy.
Out of respect for the victims and parents of the Littleton, Colo., school
killings, he has pulled the plug on the final five days of his current U.S.
tour.The band will postpone May 3 (Reno, Nev.), May 4 (Fresno, Calif.), May 5
(Las Vegas), May 7 (Phoenix) and May 8, (Universal City, Calif.). Interscope
Records had no immediate plan for rescheduling the dates.
In a statement issued by his attorney, Manson expressed his concerns about
the tragedy, and why he was willing to postpone the dates: "People are trying
to sort out what happened and to deal with their losses. It's not a great
atmosphere to be out playing rock & roll shows, for us or the fans. The media
has unfairly scapegoated the music industry and so-called Goth kids and has
speculated -- with no basis in truth -- that artists like myself are in some
way to blame. This tragedy was a product of ignorance, hatred, and an access
to guns. I hope the media's irresponsible finger-pointing doesn't create more
discrimination against kids who look different."

Naked Animal
Marilyn Manson to turn up in skin mag spread

The dope shows all.

Since Marilyn Manson spends so much time waving his flabby, nekkid butt in
the faces of audiences, we're not entirely surprised that the little devil
was prodded into revealing a whole lot more of himself in a series of photos
that just turned up in the gay porn monthly Honcho.
Manson didn't exactly agree to pose for the leather-lovin' skin mag, but the
editors managed to hunt around and find some nude shots that date back to the
beginning of the satanic silly-boy's career. They were shot by New York
filmmaker Richard Kern, who -- until now -- was best known for his so-called
"transgressive" films, most of which feature punk and goth demigods like
Lydia Lunch and Jim "Foetus" Thirlwell doing bad imitations of porn stars.

Kern's pack-rat tendencies paid off when, in response to a query from Honcho,
he said that he did happen to have some shots of Manson lying around. Details
on the sale were sketchy, but a source at the publishing company suggests
that the lensman was paid "in the low five figures" for the rather extensive
portfolio.

Since Kern insists he legally owns the photos, thanks to the magic of a
signed release, it's not clear if the Manson camp, who could not be reached
for comment, has any recourse to stop their distribution in Honcho's March
issue. But if he's really as close to Satan as he claims, perhaps the singer
could call up a plague of locusts to simply destroy the entire press run.
