He's a huge fuckin weirdo and even gets off on being a weirdo, but god damn when you close your eyes, he makes beautiful music. The production on his albums are perfect.

Go listen to the Mechanical Animals album and tell it it doesn't sound smooth as fuck

I thought you were about to discuss how he talks during interviews and I was 100% on board. I do like his music though.

He does go kinda overboard on his interviews on purpose.

However I've only seen the mainstream ones kiss David Letterman, and Letterman always tries to make the guest look like an asshole, so I dunno.

All I know is that the music is heavily

His music is mediocre mainstream stuff. At best.

If he didn't pretend that he was some Satanic weirdo, he would probably have been nearly forgotten by now.

If anything, his cover has always told me "don't give him attention, because he's begging for it."

But when I actually put that aside and listen to his music, it's great

Michael Jackson would have been a better example.

Tbh I always got the idea Manson got lucky early in his career and has mostly coasted on that early success

Being buds with Reznor youre bound to know a guy who knows a guy

I know it sounds kind of odd for me to say this about myself, but you should know that my mood changes with the wind.

To be honest I've only "truly" listened to the earlier records, which sound just like Nine Inch Nails, so it wouldn't surprise me if he got close to the people who made the NIN albums. That being said, I would have actually recommended him to stay with those people since they're amazing preducers.

I dunno. Just saying some of his earlier stuff is fantastically produced. It sounds beautiful.

I agree Mechanical Animals is great. So is Antichrist Superstar(IMO his best album). But after those I feel like his music started going way down in quality. Holywood has its moments though.
