WilfridWJun 7, 2007Wow ... did people vote based on listening to the entire album or just downloads from somewhere? An album inspired by his recent divorce and new found love, it is recorded at his home with just him and his guitarist. Hence, this album is not meant to be as well produced as his others. But somehow it is a more genuine piece of work - for the ones who has the moral flexiblility that is.

JesseSJun 8, 2007Melodically intriguing and subtle in its own way. Understated high drama: how does he do that? It's not just a matter of wearying from the usual shock-rock aesthetic, so that the understated comes as a bigger shock. It's just a very honest work of art from an artist who is tired, but not uninspired....

TylerG.Jul 9, 2007Just a great album, superb, the guitar rifts make me wanna learn how to play just so I can play his tunes, the lyrics are the usual, extremely smart and clever, like most people have said this album is much more personal than say, Golden Age of Groutesque, this is his best work in my opinion

ChrisPJun 5, 2007Best Mr Manson work since Mechanical Animals. Amazing guitar work and such an improvement in Manson's voice and sonwriting skills. This kind of sounds proves that Mr Manson can be more than just a guy with lipstick screaming obscenities. Who cares about politics and religion when heart broken feelings can sound this good?

ToboeKJun 8, 2007Working his way back to how he used to make music when he had Twiggy to help him produce music, great album alot better then Golden Age.

JamesJun 6, 2007Another amazing record. Similar to Mechanical Animals in sound, but very different in focus and intensity. Fans will love it, fans of old rock will find it easier to get into then most of his stuff. Anyone who is knocking it just doesn't like Manson, ignore them.

bitchassc.Jul 20, 2007fuck everyone who says the album sucks. manson is an artist and everything he does is supposed to reflect HIM not what YOU assholes want. and you should like the music for the music itself, not for what is "mainstream" and what's not. you're ridiculoussss. fucking amazing album.

Mar 20, 2021This is maybe the weakest album from Marilyn Manson, but is still enjoyable album. Great album for fans of goth rock.

TomppaV.Jun 17, 2007Great album indeed! Putting Holes In Happiness, The Red Carpet Grave, They Said That Hell's Not Hot, Heart-Shaped Glasses, Evidence and Eat Me, Drink Me are all 100% Manson classics. Third best album by Manson, ever.

Dec 17, 2011Marilyn Manson knows how to work wonders. Combining electronic notes with traditional rock and meaningful lyrics to top it, this definitely his best album all together to date. I can't wait for February.

JSchleinJun 4, 2007Perhaps the strongest album since Mechanical Animals. Manson revisits the 80's sound, this time focusing on Goth rock and guitar solos. The biggest mistake most people will make with this record is assuming another in your face outing of industrial metal. If approached in itself it is a humble but decent record. Fans of Type O Negative and such should seek out this record

JennerB.Sep 7, 2007It's not as accessible on first listen as his past albums have been, but I think that's the point. This is definitely an album you have to listen to a few times to have it fully sink in and then it's easier to appreciate it for what it is. It's art, not disposable pop music.

RidahCJun 5, 2007finally, a manson album with some substance. he's obviously right messed up after the break up with his girl, almost everysong is about it. an artist makin' an album based on what he feels, great concept, thx mr. manson!

CharlesMJun 11, 2007First really focused musical vision since Anti-Christ and a more mature record than we have seen out of Manson. It sounds like a band effort and less like a production feat. the most interesting release since Mechanical Animals.

ChristopherW.Jun 24, 2007This is Marilyn Manson's best album since 'Mechanical Animals' and certainly his most personal.

Oct 12, 2016Álbum muito Bom do MArilyn Manson, não uma obra-prima como Holy Wood (2000), Antichrist Superstar (1996) e Mechanical Animals (1998).
Mas definitivamente ótimo para esses 2 non-senses críticos que deram revisões negativas, mostrarem que não escutaram o álbum direito ou são retardados 33/100 é idiotice, 10/100 é insano e puta falta de incompetência de um "crítico" -
DanCFeb 19, 2008Not his best but definetly not his worst... Look out for: Mutilation is the most sincere from of flattery.

RyanJ.Jun 18, 2007I like about half of the songs on this record. But the tracks I do like are absolutely amazing - some of Manson's best work. Yes, a couple of the songs are quite bland and aren't very distinguishable. It's still worth listening to, nonetheless.

Forget what you know about this guy and it'll come off like a decent, and rather efficient, little goth-pop record.
-
There's nothing quite as immediate or fantastic as 'Disposable Teens' here, but the album on the whole is a triumph.
-
The songs and Ziggy guitar solos are more accessible than usual. Manson can croak like an undead, but can't sing to save his life.
