“I'm a controversial artist, one who dares to have an opinion and bothers to create music and videos that challenge people's ideas in a world that is watered-down and hollow. In my work I examine the America we live in, and I've always tried to show people that the devil we blame our atrocities on is really just each one of us. So don't expect the end of the world to come one day out of the blue – it's been happening every day for a long time.” PeopleWorldLongIdeasEndsShowsAmericaArtistChallengesOpinionOne DayLong TimeHappeningsDevilDown AndBlueBlameDareVideoBotherEnd Of The WorldHollowControversialAtrocities Author:Marilyn Manson

The oddity of being a critic is: You don't get a diploma, you just decide you're a critic. If someone listens to your opinion rather than their own, it's their mistake. Any critic's top 10, any year, it's something controversial or something that will make them look hipper-than-thou.
