The Marilyn Manson Wiki:This week's featured article/8, 2008

Antichrist Superstar (sometimes written as Antichrist Svperstar) is Marilyn Manson's second studio album and was released on October 8, 1996 by Interscope Records. It is somewhat of a concept album, and the first of a trilogy along with Mechanical Animals and Holy Wood (In the Shadow of the Valley of Death). It spawned four singles ("The Beautiful People", "Tourniquet", "Man That You Fear" and "Cryptorchid"). The album can be considered a concept album because of the three part storyline, in which an abused and apathetic person (represented by "The Worm") becomes an influential rock star and finally transforms into the powerful "Disintegrator."
