I am generally curious what people think of this M Manson stuff, the documentary that's on HBO etc
I have never been a fan. My friend said-
"He's such an American rock act. In the way that M is a British one. Whereas M keys into a certain British mindset and emotional base. So, too does Manson but in regard to America. He's basic and appeals to such a childish, damaged and empty " I hate myself" teenage mindset.
To me he can't sing, he is a bit thick, but people in the fly-over states probably consider him intelligent and his art is just devoid of depth- he's like a "let's be scary" version of those female whisper music acts- whereas they a take a punk song and sing it, in a folk song whisper. Manson will take a light pop song and make it shouty
I have watched a few of his interviews, as I am an Alice Cooper fan, but I just do not see any intelligence. That said I do not think he is guilty "
I tend to agree
I'm just curious what other people think
