Marilyn Manson - perhaps the world's last rock star - has abandoned the nihilism and rage that nourished his previous records, in order to create his most personal and accessible album yet.
Eat Me, Drink Me, his sixth studio release, contains 11 melodic tracks of epic proportions, each mastered by Tim Skold's snazzy production designs and piercing guitar work. ‘The romance of our assassination, if you're Bonnie, I'll be your Clyde' sings Manson on Putting Holes In Happiness, one of many fervent odes to his teenage muse, actress Evan Rachel Wood. Eat your heart out, Dita.
This record is gothic in the truest sense of the word: dark, romantic and beautiful. It is also the equivalent to a seductive nightmare. Imagine if Lolita was murdered by her lover, resurrected by a vampire, and then handcuffed to the burning wheel of a '74 Chevy Nova with only one destination: a car wreck in hell. Edgar Allan Poe, high on absinthe, rides shotgun. Bryan Ferry croons on the radio. Arthur Rimbaud sodomises Paul Verlaine in the backseat. Oh, and Hitchcock films it all.
Buy the ticket. Take the ride.
