it was first attracted by Marilyn Manson's bright colors and strange shapes ...
Marilyn Manson is an outstanding example of Gothic rock in recent years. (Formed in 1991 as Marilyn Manson AndTheSpookyKids, later shortened to Marilyn Manson) The band * * * consists of five members, including the lead singer Marilyn Manson, guitarist Zim Zum, drummer Ginger Fish keyboard player Madonna Wayne Gacy, and bass singer and bassist Twiggy Ramivez. Interestingly, each player's name is a combination of a beautiful woman and a pervert killer. The lead singer Marilyn Manson is Marilyn Monroe plus Charles Manson, and the keyboard player Madonna Wayne Gacy is also a mixture of Madonna and John Wayne Gacy (who killed three boys). Marilyn Manson, the soul of the team, only sees Satan and never feels like an angel. Originally named Brian Warner, Manson grew up in a broken American family. He was trapped in a dungeon and surrounded by piles of sundries since childhood. His family never cared about him, and even regarded him as a doll. All kinds of misfortunes made Manson no longer see God in his eyes, only seeing trauma, and only human pain and ugliness in his mental journey. Therefore, his rock philosophy is deviant and anti-Christ. Marilyn Manson is changing along the Galm Rock route, and the flesh and blood of Gothic rock is gone, followed by a glittering suit, which even he admits. Since the release of three albums, Potrait Of American Family, Smile Like Children and Antichrist Superstar, they have been publicly accused by defenders. Manson played the concept of no gender in his fourth album "Mechanical Animals", but it was too ostentatious and refused to be sold by the record store. Ironically, once the album was launched, it topped the American album list, and the sales figures were even more impressive. Although Marilyn Manson is an evil spirit, fans still support him crazily. In 1998, he published an autobiography entitled "The Long Hard Road Out Of Hell". In order to get his autograph, many young girls lingered in the library in the cold March, waiting for dozens of hours. It can be seen that the status of this band in the eyes of fans is no less than that of Nirvana!
Marilyn Manson is not only the name of a band from Florida, but also the name of its lead singer. The singer from the Midwest, whose original name was Brian Warner, spent his childhood in Canton, Ohio. He didn't live with his parents since he was a child, hoping to become a personality hero like Ozzy Osbourne one day. At the age of 2118, he moved to Florida and worked as a music critic in the Tampa Bay area. In 1989, he changed his name to Manson and met guitarist Scott Mitchell (real name Scott Putesky). The two hit it off and found that their views on the music scene in South Florida were very similar. According to Manson's experience in small talk shows and the inspiration from the combination of two famous nouns in the 1961s, he named Scott Daisy Berkowitz, which came from Duke Daisy's jazz group and killer David Berkowitz respectively. After bassist GID GETTEIN and keyboard player Madonna Wayne-Gracy joined, it was named Marilyn Manson &; The Spooky kids band was formally established.
at the beginning of their formation, they played some paid performances, recorded their own cassettes and created some special sound effects. Soon they found a suitable drummer Sara Lee Lucas to replace the original electronic drum machine, and later replaced Sara with Ginger Fish. Their style has gradually shifted from industry to hardcore. In 1992, they were nominated by local fans as the best non-mainstream hard rock band and the best band of the year in the Slammie Award in South Florida. The band members thought the name was too long to remember, and unanimously decided to remove the suffix, which was called Marilyn Manson for short. However, this did not confuse their fans. In the summer of 1993, they were nominated for five Slammie Awards and finally won the weighty honor of being the best band of the year. More importantly, Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails called Marilyn Manson into his Nothing record to sign a contract, and reached the intention of opening the tour of Nine Inch Nails in the spring of 1994. The first album "Portrait Of An American Family" (a portrayal of American families) was also successfully released in July, 1994.
Nine Inch Nails' tour began to give Marilyn Manson enough opportunities to perform, at the same time, Twiggy Ramirez became the new bass player to replace Gidget Gein who was caught in drug addiction. During this tour, the restless Marilyn Manson showed her unscrupulous personality, which led to many episodes. In addition to being banned from performing at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City, Utah, when Manson was invited to perform on stage by Nine Inch Nails, he tore up a religious book called "The Canon of Mormonism", which led to the crazy destruction of the costume room by angry people. In October of the same year, he arranged a meeting with Dr. Anton Szandor LaVey, the founder of Satan Church, and was followed by'; Respectable'; The title of. After Manson returned to Florida from his tour, he was sent to prison on suspicion of rape in Jacksonville's nude performance. As soon as he was released on bail, the band went on an independent tour, and this time they became the real protagonists. In South Carolina, they are involved in the'; Chicken incident'; The controversy caused. It happened because the band decided to throw a chicken from the stage to the fans under the stage during the performance, in order to cause more crazy and hot scenes. But in fact, this chick was not torn apart by militant fans, but was rescued by a fan. However, the ultimate fate of small animals did not dispel the rumor that Manson offered sacrifices to Satan. As a result, Manson gradually became associated with evil. October 1995, EP album'; Smells Like Children'; (children's breath) launched, and classic works'; Sweet Dreams'; (Sweet Dream) has attracted the attention of many media including MTV. Suddenly, Marilyn Manson began to be widely reported. However, during the five-month tour, the band's popularity increased day by day, and it also faced internal conflicts, among which the violent Manson pushed Berkowitz off the stage in new york.
after they returned to Florida, Berkowitz quit the band. Although some insiders later claimed that Berkowitz was not involved in the creation of Marilyn Manson's album Antichrist Superstar released in 1996, his name still appeared on the album's star list, which led Berkowitz to sue Manson for royalties. After the dispute, in order to find a suitable guitarist, the band advertised in Village Voice magazine, and after screening among 151 applicants, Zim Zum was selected. The album was released in October, 1996, and quickly won the third place on the Billboard chart, and was well received. Compared with their earlier carnival effect, these songs have injected deeper and more enthusiasm into the lyrics and have more serious effects.
