Bij Dynamo werd ie toch met graspollen bekogeld?

Ik durfde niet naar 013 (had dan sowieso in m'n eentje moeten gaan, maar het leek me sowieso maar niks vanwege die 'enge mensen' die erop afkwamen )

Was de laatste keer trouwens niet tijdens Lowlands? Dat scheen helemaal dramatisch te zijn (niet geweest)

Ja klopt dat was lowlands 2005. Heb me wel prima vermaakt maar show was wel erg saai en bijna plichtmatig. Hoop dat de komende tour beter wordt en dat ze een wat andere setlist hebben. (niet alle singles)

Er zijn toch wel goth elementen in zijn stijl terug te vinden zou ik zeggen. Het is geen Wumpscut, maar toch.

Op marilynmanson.com staan nu een aantal tour data vermeld, overigens staat Pinkpop er nog niet bij. Zelf hoop ik dat er ook nog een 'gewoon' concert in Nederland komt, i.p.v. slechts festival optredens. Volgens de site zullen er nog meer data's volgens, dus we zullen binnenkort wel zien of MM nog meer optredens in Nederland zal geven.

@Litso: Die limited tour editie van Mechanical Animals ziet er erg mooi uit! Dat heeft zeker aardig wat gekost?

Manson's Dark Return

The Antichrist Superstar exorcises some demons-including his divorce on new album,

Marilyn Manson sits in the front room of his home in the San Fernando Valley, drinking from a bottle of rose-tinted absinthe. His house feels dark and unwelcoming-his estranged wife, model Dita Von Teese, has recently moved out-and Manson apologises for the disarray. Without the makeup that he usually wears in public, and dressed casually in black, Manson pours himself into a couch and explains the turmoil that's plagued him for much of the past year-ultimately led him to restart his musical career with a new album, Eat Me, Drink Me due in June. The song, he says, "are clearly written to seduce somebody," though he is hesitant to divulge whom. "I don't want people to think that the record is some kind of exploitation of my personal life," says Manson. "At the same time, it also represents exactly who I am and what I feel."

For the next few hours, Manson plays unmastered cuts from Eat Me, Drink Me and describes his year in hell. "Halfway though last year I was in such a black hole of depression," he says. "I couldn't make anything, I couldn't do anything. I lost hope." At the time, Manson's mother was diagnosed with a mental illness and, he says, "I got trapped in one of the classic rock and roll clichés of having people work for me rob me behind my back." He had no interest in making music, and the film project he was focused on -Phantasmagoria, based on the twisted life of Lewis Carroll- became a psychological burden.

Manson says he was finally uplifted by a close friend's morbid gesture of devotion. "She picked up a butcher's knife and said, "Here, you can stab me'" he says. "When someone was willing to drown with me, I really didn't want to drown anymore." This theme is depicted in the six-minute epic "If I Was Your Vampire," which Manson wrote on Christmas. "That song is the new 'Bela Lugosi's Dead,'" says Manson. "It's the all-time gothic anthem."

The album's lyrics were written after last Halloween. That night, Manson presided over the opening of his Los Angeles art gallery. The next morning he left his home in the Valley and set up temporary digs at a studio-equipped house in the Hollywood Hills. "Suddenly," he says, "I felt liberated. I'd write a song, walk two doors down the hall and record it right then." Manson's lyrics, which were recorded over tracks crafted by Tim Skold (who joined Manson's band in 2002 as bassist), came quickly. "I was writing out of desperation and hope," he says. "The record came out in a rush-like an open wound-and I went with it."

"Just A Car Crash Away" is a Bic-waving ballad, a death march punctuated by Skold's searing guitar solo. "The Red Carpet Grave" is classic Manson, echoing with buzz saws and primitive percussion. (In fact, on "You, Me And The Devil Makes 3" they beat on a metal skunk trap they found outside the house.) Manson wrote the album's first single, "Putting Holes In Happiness," oh his birthday, and describes it as "a romantic-misogynistic-cannibal-gothic-vampire ballad."

Manson hopes to release a film in conjunction with the disc that he claims, "is nothing short of the most horrifying horror that you could ever experience." He will also tour this summer, debuting his live versions of the new songs at European festivals. "I really wanted to be a singer on this album," he says. "This is very earnest and uncalculated and raw, in the sense that I know I'm fucked up, and I'm really not ashamed of it."

Ben ook erg benieuwd naar het nieuwe album. Sommige titels vind ik nogal vreemd klinken, maar dat wil natuurlijk nog niets zeggen over de inhoud van de liedjes. Nu dus wachten tot juni...ik kijk er iig erg naar vooruit!

Weet ik meteen waar Tim Skold is gebleven nadat ie uit KMFDM is gezet

En nogal een gewaagde uitspraak om een nog niet gepubliceerd nummer van je als de nieuwe 'bela lugosi's dead' te bestempelen.
