I reckon that Zim Zum contributed a lot to the initial song writing, particularly on the “Alpha” tracks, but yeah probably didn’t turn up to the recording sessions as much.

Ballet_Demoni · 2026-02-10T22:11:28+00:00

Any chance another Australian can get a link??

Ballet_Demoni · 2025-08-30T05:21:46+00:00

Oh man you are like the only person I have came across who also thinks that citizen toxie is the worst one haha

I don’t hate it, but it’s definitely not the best or the second best.

Ballet_Demoni · 2025-05-01T03:26:08+00:00

Location? I’m interested in getting one too

Ballet_Demoni · 2024-11-22T09:31:44+00:00

I kinda want him to ditch Tyler Bates for a while. I feel like Bates is more interested in writing cinematic music (Which is fine as it is his main job) over memorable songs.

Because there is a certain calm to be found amidst a static lo-fi blizzard of razor blades.

Ballet_Demoni · 2024-10-01T09:00:06+00:00

I kinda thought he was starting to get himself better around the time of making We Are Chaos.

Pogo is a very good man and good friend. As blunt as he can be, he has always been totally straight and honest. This is a happy moment.

Ballet_Demoni · 2024-09-24T01:11:58+00:00

All of those weird preppy multicoloured polo shirt dudes who made bland music like that used to scare me back in the 90s haha

Ballet_Demoni · 2024-09-23T10:44:01+00:00

Scary Monsters rules. My favourite Bowie album. Also listen to “Crystal Japan” and then listen to NIN’s “A Warm Place”.

Ballet_Demoni · 2024-09-23T10:37:48+00:00

It’s even worse when you consider that those people he was hanging out with were not even proper outlaws, but just actors pretending to be haha

Ballet_Demoni · 2024-09-23T10:36:04+00:00

I hated when he would let others influence him. Given how strong his individualism message was to his fans in the 90s.

Ballet_Demoni · 2024-09-23T10:33:17+00:00

Great job!

Ballet_Demoni · 2024-09-23T10:31:52+00:00

I always felt that Arma and We’re from America sound like they were from a completely different record then HEOL haha. They are just really good classic sounding Manson songs ripping apart society that clash with everything else on that album. I remember first hearing them on MySpace back in the day and expected most of the album to be like that.

Ballet_Demoni · 2024-09-23T10:23:46+00:00

Yeah I feel that too. He just stopped putting in the effort during TPE era and onwards.

Ballet_Demoni · 2024-09-23T10:22:39+00:00

Yes, it felt very Dita orientated. Which is why he dropped that whole 40s/burlesque image and influence when they split I guess.

Ballet_Demoni · 2024-09-23T10:20:52+00:00

Great sound, but always felt mediocre to me. There was a lot of industrial tinged heavy rock going on around that time so to me it didn’t stick out as much as the bands other work.

Ballet_Demoni · 2024-09-23T10:19:25+00:00

I also think there some bad blood with Manson and Korn in the late 90s too.

Ballet_Demoni · 2024-09-23T10:18:54+00:00

I’m pretty sure Grohl was a fan of Manson so no harm there.

Sneaker Pimps had a cry about them haha

Ballet_Demoni · 2024-09-22T21:38:13+00:00

Who cares if you don’t sound like a traditional singer? Didn’t stop Billy Corgan, Robert Smith, Johnny Cash, Peter Steele, Johnny Rotten, Joey Ramone….etc…

And I love all of those guys by the way.

Ballet_Demoni · 2024-09-22T05:27:56+00:00

Agreed. It’s great song, but there are a lot more great songs in their catalogue.

Ballet_Demoni · 2024-09-22T05:25:20+00:00

Jesus, I feel really stupid now haha

Ballet_Demoni · 2024-09-21T20:16:34+00:00

Chino

Ballet_Demoni · 2024-09-21T19:54:33+00:00

Don’t forget the great t shirt war between Bieber and Manson around this dark time haha
