Manson at his best . One of the best Manson albums out there, i would group this CD with Holy Wood.
what reincarnation next?
I liked a few tracks off this one, but some weren't so great. so what is MM this time - a doppelganger? He is constantly reincarnating himself for the next phase of who he is. However, I think he still has something to say at this point.
MANSON

Grotesque is quite Good
The quality wasn't there and he seemed to be reaching for conformation. I was ready to write Brian Warner off after his last couple of CDs flopped. But lo and behold, his latest CD is also his greatest. Grotesque is full of original hooks, melody and sounds that make it fresh and exciting. The subject matter is more relevant and less shock value which makes it easier to absorb the messages while banging your head to the music. Best tracks: "Vodevil", "Bright Young Things" and "Mobscene".
