Marilyn Manson: The Unauthorized Biography

By Doug Small

(Omnibus Press). Marilyn Manson emerged from the swamplands of Southern Florida to take the Nineties music scene by the throat, garnering chart success and critical acclaim while simultaneously whipping the moral majortity into a frenzy. Fast-forward to 2007 and Manson hasn't loosened his grip, with his latest in an impressive string of hit albums, Eat Me, Drink Me set to sustain his stranglehold. Here are all the down and dirty details of the band that aspires to be the musical equivalent of shouting "Fire " in a crowded theatre. From Marilyn Manson and the Spooky Kids' formation in 1989 and their early exploits, through the progression of the group's sound and lineup to Manson's present-day incarnation as artist, actor, writer, director, and musician, this book is a must-read for anyone inspired by the inimitable Marilyn Manson.

Brilliant Book

A well-researched, well-written treasure trove of everything Manson. This is a must-read for any Manson fan; no matter how little or how much you know, you will learn a lot more! A fascinating account from the very early days up to the present. I could not put it down. It also features fabulous photos - just take a look at the stunning cover for proof.

Lots of Photos

Great book for its many full-page full-color photos spanning Marilyn's career. Lots of quotes from MM and the book is very current, running to mid-2007.
