From MansonWiki, the Marilyn Manson encyclopedia
Mechanical Animals is the third studio album by Marilyn Manson, released on September 15, 1998 by Interscope Records. It is somewhat of a concept album, and the second of a trilogy along with Antichrist Superstar and Holy Wood (In the Shadow of the Valley of Death). It spawned four singles ("The Dope Show", "Rock Is Dead", "I Don't Like the Drugs (But the Drugs Like Me)" and "Coma White"). Unlike Marilyn Manson's previous work, Antichrist Superstar, Mechanical Animals is, on an aesthetic level, far less dark. In both image and music, the album is inspired by 1970s style, Bowie-esque glam rock. ((More...))
