Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA (1989 – present)

Marilyn Manson (born as Brian Hugh Warner on January 5, 1969) is the lead singer of the Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA based shock rock group of the same name. Warner chose the name, a combination of Marilyn Monroe and Charles Manson, to illustrate what he considered to be the extreme dualism of late 20th century American culture. The stage names of each band member were originally created by combining the first name of an iconic female sex symbol and the last name of an iconic mass murderer or serial killer, though this naming convention has not extended to new band members after the mid-90s. Along with Rob Zombie and Eric Burdon he is one of the main performers of the shock rock genre.

Formed in 1989 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, as Marilyn Manson & The Spooky Kids, the band’s uniquely theatrical performances gathered a local cult following that developed over time into a worldwide fanbase. By the late 1990s the band was considered one of modern music’s most widely-known and controversial acts; this was due, in large part, to Manson’s then-frequent clashes with religious and political groups. Manson’s lyrics often receive criticism for their anti-religious sentiment and for references to sex, drugs, and violence (albeit typically in the abstract as opposed to any specific depiction). The band’s music and performances have frequently been called offensive and obscene. Protests and petitions have sometimes led to the group being banned from performing.

I think he realizes that hes no longer really "popular" in a mainstream way. The High End of Low only sold like 112,000 in almost a year. I think thats kind of good. I hope he does a great album like MA but very different at the same time. Time to re-invent himself you know.

New album may be coming sooner than you would expect. He said its David Bowie influenced and he doesnt have any restrain due to a lack of a record label http://www.metalhammer.co.uk/news/exclusive-marilyn-manson-i’m-back-with-evan-rachel-wood/

Paula Coufos tried to fuck me

And when I said no she wrote an embarrassing review in the Australian. I hope no one harms her in any creative, violent way. She isn't really smart and her writing is worse than her looks.
