Despite Marilyn Manson's faith in the power of rock, history tells us that noisy guitars and outrageous performers provide the best youth safety-valve know to man. But, whether he makes his more emotional, 'human', record or not, the Manson persona has made its point.

They look to people who seem to understand them for release. Former losers made good, like Brian Warner. | Despite Marilyn Manson's faith in the power of rock, history tells us that noisy guitars and outrageous performers provide the best youth safety-valve know to man.
