Revision as of 19:48, 30 March 2009

"Armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon" is a track from the 2009 release The High End of Low. Its title was revealed on December 20, 2008, in the month's issue of Revolver. In a MySpace blog entry by Sean Beavan on March 10, 2009, the song's title was alternatively spelled "Arma-God Damn-Mother Fuckin'-Geddon", leaving the official title unclear. The single version, which an article by Metal Hammer refers to as simply "Armageddon", will enter airplay on April 13, 2009. Curiously, when Manson first revealed the title of the song in Revolver's December 2008 issue, he confessed that the song had "no chance on God's earth of getting on the radio."

Music details

On March 11, 2009, The Heirophant user MindRelapse commented on the song, saying '"Arma-God Damn-Mother Fucking-Geddon" is as insane as it sounds; the heaviest Manson song since "1996" (at least from the select few I've heard).'

A blog by Metal Hammer describes "Armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon" as having "Heavy basslines, a stomping back-beat and a very traditionally Manson glam-chorus are the order of the day. It's this glam rock tinge that really shines through on the track, nodding to his penchant for decadent 70's rock but with an old school Manson industrial shade. Similar to the more Rock Is Dead side of Manson's work (albeit with a sound that is more sinister than was evident on Mechanical Animals), it doesn't echo the darkness of Manson's earlier work but it is of a higher quality than anything he has put out in a long, long while. It's great to hear Manson being genuinely defiant again, throwing caution to the wind with the couplet "fuck the goddamn TV and the radio/fuck making hits, I'm taking credit for the death toll". He may not be as dangerous as he once appeared but it is good to hear Mazza using one of those many middle fingers he was born with once again."

Lyrics

    Death to ladies first, then the gentlemen
    (?) facelifts, abortion, nervous breakdance
    Satanic girls gone wild, truly fucking suicidal
    
    First you try to fuck it, then you try to eat it
    If it hasn't learned your name, you better kill it before they see it
    First you try to fuck it, then you try to eat it
    If it hasn't learned your name, you better kill it before they see it
    
    It's armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
    (Fuck, eat, kill, now do it again)
    It's armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
    (Fuck, eat, kill, et cetera)
    First you try to fuck it, then you try to eat it
    If it hasn't learned your name, you better kill it before they see it
    It's armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
    
    I've got a blackened soul, morals in a hole, wish I wasn't dead
    Now the TV set's a sharp and cold depression
    (?) end eventually, illegal separation, call my dealer
    I want my lawyer, we've got a situation
    
    First you try to fuck it, then you try to eat it
    If it hasn't learned your name, you better kill it before they see it
    First you try to fuck it, then you try to eat it
    If it hasn't learned your name, you better kill it before they see it
    
    It's armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
    (Fuck, eat, kill, now do it again)
    It's armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
    (Fuck, eat, kill, et cetera)
    On the news, or is it the noose? The same results may vary
    Side effects all vary
    It's armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
    
    Armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
    Armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
    Armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
    Armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
    
    It's armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
    (Fuck, eat, kill, now do it again)
    It's armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
    (Fuck, eat, kill, et cetera)
    Fuck the goddamned TV and the radio
    And fuck making hits, I'm taking credit for the deathtoll
    It's armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
