First single from his new album The High End Of Low that comes out later this year. Should impact in the next few weeks.
I guess this title means he's got most of the emo out of his system from his last album. I dunno though, something about a title like that sounds a little too calculated. I'm interested to hear how this ends up turning out.

His last good album was Mechanical Animals. That said, that was A REALLY GOOD ALBUM. "Coma White" is glorious.

^Agreed. I liked both comas better than anything else he's done.

Yeah, "Coma White" is my favorite Manson song.
I had a mild interest in the stuff they did last time out, though. To me the title doesn't sound out of place for their stuff.

They love you when you're on all the covers When you're not, they love another.

Wow, this guy needs help. Been living under a rock? This is Marilyn Manson we're talking about. I don't think the title should come as any surprise after all the bizarre things he's done in his career.

I don't think the title should come as any surprise after all the bizarre things he's done in his career. Apparently, and it was quite peaceful there. Then I came out to read this title that forces me to contemplate this psycho and his slasher movie fetish. I realize Manson is insane, just stating the obvious i guess.

You're too young to remember Manson's glory days in the 90s. BACK THEN, HE WAS A CONTENDER.

You're too young to remember Manson's glory days Thank God Oh come on now. Seriously. Personally I don't think Manson is all that shocking. He's a great musician though.

I'm actually interested in this. Just listened to Coma White for the first time and its pretty good. Yeah, I'm behind on him. My parents would have sent me to an asylum if they caught me listening to him when I was younger. He scares the living hell out of my mother.

I myself never listened to his music until this last album, and then got into his back catalog. You might have been a similar case.

I heard the occasional song now and then, but like it was already said I was too young to catch him in his "glory days," so yeah I really don't know where I'm going with this but I felt you deserved a response. So um...have a nice day?
Haha, well regardless I never got into the whole "Shock Rock" thing at all either, perhaps that was a little before my time as well.

Though the three main singles were kind of poor and didn't always or accurately reflect it, Manson had tons of hooks all over that album. Then again, their singles are frustratingly often the most generic hard rock, pop-structured songs on the albums. Agreed on "Coma White." That's probably my favorite song of theirs.

I'm not a fan, generally, but I can see what he's (they're) going for. Generally I'm just indifferent to them.

I don't understand the ellipses splitting the word. According to Wikipedia, it's probably because the title of the song is really "Arma-God Damn-Mother f**kin'-Geddon". Marilyn is such an artist.

Oh yeah...I remember that song title now. I read it awhile ago. Starting with Mechanical Animals, every album since has had more and more calculated song titles. Now he's just as bad as Fall Out Boy and all those other guilty "scene band" parties.

I get tired of the same "pick a part of the chorus" tactic most bands use.
