Marilyn Manson started out as a depraved, marginally talented group of freaks that played a caustic but undeveloped brand of metallic industrial noise. Then Trent Reznor stepped into the studio for seven months with the band, and Manson emerged with the most intense, visceral, mechanical metal album since The Downward Spiral. Antichrist Superstar is a horror-house of grisly atrocities that stains as indelibly as a bathful of warm blood. Brooding rhythms collide with corrosive samples and buzzsaw guitar riffs, while vocalist Marilyn croons irresistible melodies in the voice of a vagrant regurgitating broken light-bulb shards. Essential listening, regardless of how much input Reznor had. --Jon Wiederhorn

Manson Christ....................... September 20, 2009
George Carabetsos (Chicago Ridge, IL USA)
The best. Manson"s Antichrist Superstar is the one album that made him. It's the one that pissed off a lot of useless religion groups. The other albums are great, but this is the most popular. If you're a true Manson fan then you should have this in cd in your collection.

I probably have no business being here doing a review for this album. I believe in Jesus Christ, and that He's my saviour. However, I couldn't bury my head in the sand anymore praying for this man's soul. I to be honest found the music appealing which is dangerous. You get so csught up in the guitars, and the pounding mechanical beats you forget the lyrics, and these lyrics while not as scary as I thought at first, but they're still evil sounding. I only sampled this album as I am afraid of what I might hear if I played it all the way through. I need to keep an open mind as I know I heard Manson's speech on Family Values. Apparently like Christians all around the world Satanists are persecuted too. They are persecuted on both sides. They are persecuted by Christians for worshipping the evil one Satan, and they are persecuted by Satan himself. Satan doesn't like us people because we were created by God, and He loves us. I see Manson, and his bandmates as hurt souls. Hurt by people in society because they choose to look different, having alot of negativity over hurts in family, neighborhood, church, etc. They are looking for a source of strength and comfort, and Satan can give neither. He can put thoughts in your head and heart that make you react in a way that will hurt someone that will give you a false sense of strength, or to do something that will hurt you, but give you a false sense of comfort....meaning suicide. Satan isn't interested in helping you God is, and if you don't believe so I understand. There are times when I feel that God isn't helping me either. I have to remember Job however, and that it was Satan that went to God to ask permission to hurt Job because Job followed after God, and God blessed him. However, Satan said that if Job lost everything he would curse God, so to test him God allowed Satan to strike Job of his possessions, and his health.
Anyway back to the review of this album. I found the music to be appealing as I like buzzsaw guitars. The music on this album starts off with "Irresponsible Hate Anthem" which sounds like a live track, and it rocks. Other songs of interest here are: "Tourniqet", "1996", "Minute Of Decay". I found the vocals to be reminiscent of early Alice Cooper, I can't think of anyone else he could sound like. I don't know why I am at a loss of words here I used to listen to Black Sabbath, and found their first 4 albums to be rather good. I guess it's an issue of struggling with the liking of the music, and the intensity of the vocals. I guess I'm wanting to sound cool, and understanding, but am not doing a good job of either. As I said earlier I probably have no business doing a review for this album if I didn't put my whole heart into it. I chose to do one because I believe like the Holy Bible is a dangerous book so is this album. Excuse me... did I say the Holy Scriptures are dangerous? Indeed I did, and that's because it demands a commitment the same way Satan does. There's no room for straddling the fence. Manson makes this all too clear what he believes in here, and all I can say is: "If You Believe There Is No God Make Sure You're Right."
My Top Five All Time Favorite Album! June 15, 2009
Katherine (Massachusetts/ Connecticut)
I'm laughing as I'm typing this review because Manson's music is really freaky! When this album came out, I was 11 years old- but growing up with older siblings, I used to sneak into their rooms and borrow their worlds.
This album used to give me the creeps. I used to fall asleep in my sister's room listening to the melodies and weird background noises, his distrubing and screaming voice, the pounding of the bass and drums... and I'd have nightmares!
But, by the time 14 years old came around, I was stealing this album from my sister who had long forgotten it, and it has followed me around ever since. For 10 years I've been loving Manson's "Antichrist Superstar" cd. It is not mainstream, by any means, (well, besides the track overplayed: "Beautiful People") but the songs and lyrics are so easy to listen to. Manson is definitely a mastermind in his craft at this stage of his life. The album is interesting, therapeutic, alarmingly interspective and so astonishing!
His lyrics speak the TRUTH. He is not afraid of what people think of him. He is not hindered by the public "eye" and not afraid to tell [scream] his worldly findings to us. And, boy, am I listening!
I love love love this album. Even some of you techno geeks may like it because the bass is that darned good! Don't be put off by the album art. It's Manson's "artist" version of himself. His music, though, speaks loudly enough.
