Really, Marilyn Manson? Still?

Bill Clinton isn’t President anymore, dude. We came really close to actual Armageddon a couple of times since we last heard from you, and it was scary and had nothing to do with adolescent angst. And I’m pretty sure even goths think goths are funny now. You are 40 years old. Let’s change it up a little. It’s important to keep trying new things as you get older. This guy knows what I’m talking about:

“I just went skydiving for the first time and I have been doing the crossword puzzle to stave off Alzheimer’s.”

It is 2009, buddy. Act like it.

  1. that guy LOVES that podium prop!
    It’s like he didn’t get any podiums when he was a child so now he’s using ALL his video money on podiums now. The folly of lost youth.

  2. so…this keeps automatically starting up every time I open videogum.com. which is not okay, on so many levels.

      But to be fair to us, MM had to CHOOSE the treatment.

      No one forced nazi imagery and girls in black face on him.

    Do you think anyone can really tell Marilyn Manson anything? His career is based on exhausted shock value. The real question is: Can we please tell all the people who will be buying this album that it is no longer 1996?

  7. I am in the process of making my own better video for this song, re-named as Dharmageddon. It will have jack shooting a gun at will, drive-by VW shootings, nuclear explosions and lots of bloody faces. Also Manson will be cast as the nerdy mad-scientist.

  8. I only watched the first 2 minutes, but is the rest of it just the same three clips repeated over and over again as well?

  9. Oh good, a Girls Gone Wild reference.

  10. Marilyn and Lil’ Kim apparently get the same e-newsletter of relevancy. Next Week’s Issue: Oprah got bamboozled by Mr. Frey!

  11. I’m getting too old for this shit.

    If he’s so irrelevant, why even waste your time posting this?

  19. The real question is, who is this appealing to? The adolescents who listened to Marilyn Manson are, what, 27 now? What person under the age of 12 (really the only age that ever listened to MM) has any idea who the fuck this guy is? I mean if you’re 12-13, you weren’t even born when he had anything resembling a hit single.

    At this point, you’re more likely to find an at-one-time Marilyn Manson fan among the parents of young angst-ridden kids then you are the kids themselves. And we all know the worst possible way to express adolescent angst is to listen to something your parents enjoyed when they were your age.
