So it's a lot of different things that went into me using these types of images. There's a lot of talk in some of the other versions of The Bible, the Hebrew versions, and things about the end of the world not being a punishment from God, but being an invitation from mankind - that mankind has to invite (its) own destruction. And I think that's very true, and it's almost very American. I think that that's the type of society we're in and it's people's very fear of an Antichrist that has created it." | So it's a lot of different things that went into me using these types of images.

− | '''On Antichrist Superstar, Marilyn Manson has taken a more experimental approach towards music. On Portrait, they were almost blatantly minimizing the use of electronics in what seemed like a deliberate attempt not to sound like [[Nine Inch Nails]].

− | + | With Antichrist, Marilyn Manson have come into their own and let themselves be whatever the song demands, whether it's the funky high-hat programming and sequenced bass lines of [[Dried Up, Tied and Dead to the World]] or the serene piano lines of [[Man That You Fear]]. Even Rock n roll-orientated songs like [[The Beautiful People]] have some type of unusual sonic element thrown into them.''' | |
"Well, to get sounds," Manson reveals, "we did everything from play the whole mix of a song through a boom box and mic it, to singing vocals through a telephone intercom system, as well as all the various other techniques we've used for inspirational measures like the things that I've spoke about in the past: the pain threshold techniques, sleep deprivation, drug experimentation and that sort of thing." | "Well, to get sounds," Manson reveals, "we did everything from play the whole mix of a song through a boom box and mic it, to singing vocals through a telephone intercom system, as well as all the various other techniques we've used for inspirational measures like the things that I've spoke about in the past: the pain threshold techniques, sleep deprivation, drug experimentation and that sort of thing." |
