KatrinaS.Jul 6, 2009This album incorporates all of Manson's complex and diverse talents. In my opinion, this is the best album Manson has released in years.

JimmyJamesJun 4, 2009I had lost all confidence in Marilyn Manson after his last release (Eat Me, Drink Me), but the return of Twiggy Ramirez appears to be a contributing factor in Manson's success. This album contains some of Manson's best material in almost a decade.

BorjaMMay 27, 2009Of course it's an averange of 52 if only get the bad reviews, but there are many more, and I'm sure that they are better than these.

[Anonymous]May 28, 2009Parts of this remind me of early 90's Spooky Kids Manson. Despite Manson occasionally soiling himself lyrically, this album has a very endearing quality to it. The Twiggy influence is astounding. I was not a fan of his last album, but this one is growing on me.

AidanMMay 29, 2009before i bought it i actually feared it might not be very good since he's been in the industry for so long and a lot of long-lasting artists' work tends to become kind of inert after their peak period, but this album is not that at all. it's quality music to the end.

LuciferJMay 31, 2009Awesome album...the band has reinvented themselves....best album since holy wood...vast diversity.

DrRetardJun 1, 2009Very good and a bloody good grower too. Actively worth finding and buying. Standout is devour. For me at least!

JusinLJun 2, 2009Is it me or does this album have 2 or 3 Coma White like tracks? Of course critics are going to diss MM's new albums because they are waiting for the next Anti-Christ or at least Mechanical Animals. This album is almost genius. If it wasn't so repetitive and had less ballads it would be a 10 for sure. Musically tuned and fun to listen to.

BonniePMay 27, 2009Good Rock (which is a lot to say this days). !5, Four Rusted Horses, Leave A Scar, I want to kill u... there are plenty of well achieved songs for different ears. Passed the glam and the hole previous decoration, the rock still stands out and strikes again.

JeffreyHMay 29, 2009The negative reviews are inevitable with an artist like Manson, with the image often taking the precedent over the artist

RonnieSMay 31, 2009Critics once again miss the spot. This by far manson at his best. A well balanced album I think it is the best album since Mechanical Animals but in a way better. This album is a complete 180 from Eat Me Drink Me I don't know how anyone could compare the two.

TomJun 23, 2009I find the user vs critics rating discrepancy interesting. anyways, this isn't a groundbreaking, important or relevant album in any way. it's not the 90's anymore. but it doesn't really matter because it doesn't really try to be. this album is exactly what i wanted it to be - catchy, fun guilty pleasure goth rock. and i love it.

DMay 26, 2009While it's lacking in the heaviness that was promised, and surprisingly filled with twangy rock guitar, these is actually some of the best songwriting the artist has put out to date... even if it lacks the urgency and vitriol of Antichrist Superstar.

JohnWMay 29, 2009I'm giving it a nine because it really needs it. It really isn't a bad album, maybe an 8, but the middle is boring. I advise not sitting through it all at once. Take a break and then resume.

PabloVMay 29, 2009Great Album for true fans.

InsomniacJunkieMay 31, 2009After a few listens I have to say that it's the best stuff he has done in years. Chemistry between the band was a sorely missed element of Eat Me Drink Me that is very evident on Manson's newest. Definitely check this out!!

Nov 10, 2017Tem uma das músicas mais fracas da carreira de MM= Wow.
Outras duas boas, mas quase medianas como **** e I Have Just To Look Up To See Hell.
Porém É repleto também de excelentes faixas como Devour, Leave A Scar, Blank and White, Wight Spider, Running To The Edge of The World, Into The Fire & ETC.
Um Bom álbum de Marilyn Manson. -

5-Devour -
Aug 22, 2018I think critically the High End of Low is Marilyn Manson's most underrated record. There are moments which are not ideal and come off as cheesy rather than shocking or thought provoking. The album was written during a form of break down which had Marilyn Manson writing the songs on the walls in his home. Excluding the cheesy tracks from the record, I would say it's among Manson's finest.

Perhaps the only interesting thing about Manson's latest record is the couple of anomalies hidden within.
-
Assuming they haven’t all grown up by now, Manson fans will adore every dark, juvenile flourish. For the rest of us, The High End Of Low serves as a cautionary tale of artistic regression.

Q MagazineManson the man at least seems re-energised here....The same cannot always be said for his band; their limp glam metal consistently threatens to undermine the performance. [Jul 2009, p.127]
