Peeps, here’s your Im-only-as-deep-as-the-self-that-I-dig Sunday jam.
I could probably sing the Portrait of an American Family disc to you, let you know when the chord and tempo changes were coming. Definitely in my top 5 faves from the early 90s. This song in particular was always my favorite.
Daisy Berkowitz’s writing, guitar playing, musical talent — that’s what made Marilyn Manson (the band). Side note: I read that Scott Putesky (Daisy) was diagnosed with stage-four colon cancer back in September 2013. Glad to see he’s still active on Facebook four years later.
The Smells Like Children disc was okay but not as good. Same with Antichrist Superstar. I just couldn’t get into them as much. The latter seemed to have too many theatrics and not enough kicking out the jams. Too much of a statement and not enough just good music. Most of Antichrist felt like sludge to, melding together in a blur and, nothing like the memorable, concise guitar riffs on Portrait.
Anyways… come into our home, won’t you stay?
