"15" is the fifteenth and final track from Marilyn Manson's 2009 release The High End of Low. Its title was revealed on March 10, 2009, in a MySpace blog entry by producer Sean Beavan. Marilyn Manson described "15" to Kerrang! as "very unusual," and the most important song that has been written by the band. It was recorded on January 5, 2009, Manson's 40th birthday.
Music details
Reviewing for Thrash Hits, Hugh Platt was displeased that "after an record featuring some of his best material for nearly a decade, closing the album with the hands-off minimalism of album '15' is akin to ending on a petulant sigh, rather than the defiant final middle-finger salute The High End of Low surely deserves."[1]
In his review for The Quietus, John Robb gave a surprisingly sparse analysis of "15", although he did highlight that with its "descending riff" and its "lying-in-bed, fuck-everything sulkiness, [...] '15' drools with its own lethargic hatred."[2]
