As a person he's just into shocking the crap out of the right wing. Which honestly isn't hard to do. Especially the way he is. He's an earlier version of Alice Cooper. Same as Rob Zombie. But, while I may not like his image and him as a person..his remixe's of 80's hits there all friggin awesome. There is just something dark and twisted and kinda gothic that he did and just either brought it out more or added it. So yeah okay musiclly but as a person he's out to shock mainly and get a rise.

Yea i totally agree with that, ive heard stories as to why hes so dark and just how he is, its pretty sad, course you cant always belive what you hear these days, but i was told it by a really trustworthy person, basically, he didnt get enough love and attention and stuff when he was little, so hes how he is now, thats kinda what ive heard anyways,

Although it is very VERY truthfull that the things that affect you as a child no matter how small can and will effect you as an adult. All the people's problems that are mentally off and or not mentally well you can root it back to childhood. Cliche's abound but it is true. I don't know him some of his songs' are cool but like in one interview he's talking sense and all and then in the other he's not.

Yeah, i like his style and how he dresses and stuff, its not something you see everyday, i dont like it because of his darkness, but just in general, he stands out, and i give him props for that, he doesnt care what other people think of him, and hes not afraid to express himself,

He cares what they think since he's got this lil group and they pay to see the shows and pay the CDS. How many people here on this board would go to a show where they have people outside from the local churches...handing out bibles and pamplettes telling you and going crazy most likely that you are going to this rock show.

*jumps into the thread*
Nope, he's not the leader of the satanic church, although he met with the late leader Anton lavey. Cannot spell his name, but if you read Marilyn Manson's autobiography its all there. Its a good read, intersting and sad in places.
I just like the guy because he's made some great music: i really like his cover of 'Tainted love' and 'Sweet Dreams.' And 'Rock is Dead' is one of my favourite songs.

He is NOT the leader of a Santanic Cult.
The reversed Cross that he has used often at his shows.. is actually a symbol of St. Peter. If there are any catholics here; they will probably know and understand that when St. Peter was crucified, he asked to be crucified upside down.
"The reversed cross, also known as the cross of St. Peter, has also been used as an emblem of Satanism, although more often by non-satanists than believers. Historically, it has been a symbol of humility, a symbol of Martyred St. Peter's refusal to be crucified in the manner of Christ, preferring to be hung upside down.
Today, the symbol of an upturned cross may symbolize an opposition to Christian dogma, a concept borrowed from Christian writers who mistook the emblem of Peter for an anti-Christian symbol- a bit of a self fulfilling prophecy!
The inverted cross is also an esoteric symbol of reversal, and is related to the 12th key of the tarot, the hanged man."
