Glamorous Charles Monroe Metal – ‘WE ARE CHAOS’ By MARILYN MANSON

19 September 2020

Artist: Marilyn Manson
Album: We Are Chaos – his 11th LP
Released: 9/11 – 2020

NME verdict: “You want a freakshow? Turn on the news. The shock-rocker swaps
pantomime for vulnerability on his best album since 2000’s era-defining ‘Holy Wood’.
While chaos and confusion may surround us, Manson’s response this time is a dose
of respite, mercy, clarity and his most human work so far… This record is the closest
we’ve come to finding out – taking on us on a full journey to find out what lay beneath
the make-up and the costumes.”
Full review here. Score: 5/5.

“My art is not limited to the songs I create but also to the reaction it creates. I like to sit
back and look at the whole thing as if it’s a tornado that I’m controlling. It’s creating chaos. When you create chaos, ideas are turned upside down, and everybody looks at things in a different way.”
Marilyn Monroe Charles Manson

‘WE ARE CHAOS’ – New album MARILYN MANSON out 9/11

NME verdict: “The God Of Fuck’s most diverse and human work to date. What a bloody year, eh? Disease is everywhere. There’s uprising in the streets. Millions will soon be trapped indoors once again. Satan’s tiny-handed orange spawn is still in power in the US. The very fabric of society is being questioned and there’s a younger generation who want to rip it up and start again. This record is the closest we’ve come to finding out – taking on us on a full journey to find out what lay beneath the make-up and the costumes. You want a freakshow? Turn on the news. While chaos and confusion may surround us, Manson’s response this time is a dose of respite, mercy, clarity and his most human work so far.”

The God Of Fuck Is Back – MARILYN MANSON States That ‘WE ARE CHAOS’

New sonic impulses…

30 July 2020

The self-declared God of Fuck is ready to wake us all up with his 11th album, entitled
WE ARE CHAOS (indeed, we are). Look out for its 9/11 release. He recorded the fresh
full length before the pandemic hit the world as if he knew what was coming our way.

Manson stated about the new longplayer and its title track “When I listen to ‘We Are Chaos’now, it seems like just yesterday or as if the world repeated itself, as it always does.
This was recorded to its completion without anyone hearing it until it was finished. But just
like an LP, it is a flat circle and it’s up to the listener to put the last piece of the puzzle into
the picture of songs.”

“Making this record, I had to think to myself: “Tame your crazy, stitch your suit. And try to pretend that you are not an animal” but I knew that mankind is the worst of them all.
Making mercy is like making murder. Tears are the human body’s largest export.”
