Say what you will about Lady Gaga but no one else is like her. She's unique and shocking. Marilyn Manson had this type of thing going but then he got totally drug addled and fat. So now we have Lady Gaga. Okay with me.
His background as a New York Times rock music critic and Rolling Stone contributing editor made Neil Strauss the perfect candidate to write books with Marilyn Manson, Motley Crue and Dave Navarro. But few people expected that the intellectual, slightly built journalist would earn fame writing about his real-life experience as a pickup artist in the book "The Game." Strauss' latest book is...

…and I know I’m not alone. This week professional controversialist Marilyn Manson, (formerly known as Brian) has run into some well-deserved controversy following the release of his latest music video: Running to the Edge of the World. Why controversial? Because towards the end of the video Brian can be seen beating a young woman to a bloody [...]
I wasn’t really familiar with Leonard Cohen until the release of the 1991 tribute album, I’m Your Fan: The Songs of Leonard Cohen. Cohen’s song, “First We Take Manhattan” was covered by R.E.M. and the song also appeared as a bonus track on their U.K. CD single for “Drive.” At the time I really liked [...]
Say you're a glamorous media type who gets invited to fascinating, star-studded events, and you need a buddy to bring as an accomplice. A buddy who laughs loudly and wears an outlandish costume and/or matches your colors. I am that buddy . It's good to have me around, because I'm not competing for your job -- I'm just there to be agreeable. Wednesday night saw me and Rohin at SoHo's Agent Provocateur...
Score! Visiting Chicago recently I snagged an exceedingly rare copy of a CD by outsider legend Jan Terri. This Windy City native was quite the sensation a decade or so ago, as I'm sure some of you may recall: after her jaw-dropping videos started making the rounds, she released two private-press CDs , started doing shows around Chicago, opened for Marilyn Manson, and appeared on Jon Stewart's Daily...
That’s right, folks: Marilyn Manson is still alive! And for his next trick, he will now whine like a baby and pretend to beat up a young woman in her underwear. (She’s in her underwear, that is, not him.) NSFW: Edgy, huh? Don’t worry, if the scrawny dork was really hitting her, she wouldn’t even notice. [...]
The video for The High End Of Low 's "Running To The Edge Of The World" features Brian Warner up-close and remorsefully weepy when not beating a bloodied woman senseless. It is a painfully weak attempt at shock, sure. (As Videogum put it: "Maybe we shouldn't judge this video too harshly until we've seen it through the window of our Time Machine on the way back to late 1997, the day...
LA Weekly : A few months ago, Marilyn Manson got upset about a story we published and used his MySpace to rant and threaten our reporters (and journalists in general) with the wrath of his minions. Here’s an excerpt: “But if one more “journalist” makes a cavalier statement about me and my band, I will personally or with my fans help, greet them at their home and discover just...
Maybe all those hysterical parents were right about Marilyn Manson. In his latest video he violently beats a woman who looks like his ex-girlfriend Evan Rachel Wood, then leaves her bloody, dead body... [[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, other content, and more! ]]
Lily Cole isn't a household name in America, but in her native England she's achieved big success as a model (The Sunday Times ranked her the 77th richest young person in Britain). And...
Sweden’s preoccupation with THE STOOGES seems to have passed…in the 90s it seemed like a more than likely chance that a record originating from Scandanavia would have an infatuation with Asheton stamped all over it. THE HELLACOPTERS , UNION CARBIDE PRODUCTIONS , GLUCIFER , and TURBONEGRO all showed slavish devotion to amped up guitars and a razor-sharp delivery. However, the softer side...
This week, MTV.com has run a veritable cornucopia of interview snippets with members of the "New Moon" cast. We'll be talking to the stars -- Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner -- tomorrow (along with everyone else), so think of this week's round of questioning as a palette cleanser, something to whet your appetite [...]
