Marilyn Manson: "The High End of Low", early impressions

May 26th sees the arrival of a new album by shock rocker Marilyn Manson & naturally I’m excited about it but will it live up to writing the wrongs of & “eat me drink me”? from first impressions I’d have to say yes! From what I have heard of it so far I’d say its going to redeem Manson in a big way, the early tracks seem very well written & nicely polished. So far the tracks that are confirmed are as follows: 15, arma-god damn-mother-fu@#in-geddon, devour, four rusted horses, I want to kill you like they do in movies, the wow, we’re from America. The main single is “we’re from America” & it was released free on march 27th - when asked about the single he had this to say: "I think a lot of people will hear the track and initially think it's just political, but it's not just that, it's also me describing a lot of fu@#ed-up scenarios that I'm going through in my personal life. Someone asked me, 'Why are you so fu@#ed up?', 'Well, I am from America.' I hate the fact that so many people have fu@#ed the country up, and so many people fu@#ed up my personal life and I allowed it to happen. So in a way, I feel like America as a whole feels, but in no way does that make me a tree-hugging patriotic freedom rocker". - so there you have it the new album will be out on the 26th of May so expect a review of the album from me just before then.
