Shining’s Blackjazz Live Is On The Horizon!

Filed Under: Live, Upcoming releases, Video
Oct.25, 2011

Norway’s Shining are a peculiar band that took our hearts and ran with them last year when they released their album Blackjazz. It was easily an album that made a leap to my top 10 albums of 2010. If you’re not familiar with this group, imagine what it would sound like if Nine Inch Nails and Enslaved wrote a jazz record together. It’s absolutely nuts.

At the end of last year or so (I forget), the band recorded one of their live performances, which the band promised would be released as a live CD/DVD combo. I was excited, but eventually forgot about it. Recently, the band has made good on their promise and announced Blackjazz Live! They released the trailer above which highlights clips of the album’s tracklist. NEAT!

Here’s a rundown of the album’s production personnel:

Produced by Munkeby
Mixed by Sean Beavan (Marilyn Manson, Nine Inch Nails, Slayer)
Mastered by Tom Baker (Marilyn Manson, David Lynch, Nine Inch Nails)
Graded by John Cryer (Muse)
Film directed by Anders Børresen

As you can tell, this DVD is going to be legit! Seriously, this looked so good that I immediately pre-ordered two copies—one for myself and… well… you’ll see!

Blackjazz Live is due out 11/11/11 on Prosthetic Records. Those of us in the States can pre-order it here for a measly $15.

What in Fresh Hell Is Going On In This New Marilyn Manson Video?! [VERY NSFW!]

Filed Under: lolwut, Video
Sep.02, 2011

If you haven’t heard, Marilyn Manson has been working very closely with Shia LaBeouf (the kid from Even Stevens), who wrote a book and and directed a documentary around the creation of Manson’s new album or something like that. I can’t say I paid too much attention, because the only thing I really care about Marilyn Manson is that he was once a member of Nine Inch Nails. It’s true! [EDIT: Manson was just in one of the band's early videos playing backup stuff. SILLY ME.]

But those days were limited, and his solo output as of late has been pretty boring, to put it lightly. Manson’s new song “Born Villain” isn’t much different, but the video, in true Manson fashion, is just way out there. If you’re wondering how NSFW the above video is, there’s full frontal female nudity and a scene where a woman squeezes an eye out of her vagina, among some other oddities that will make your entire office and/or family think you’re some kind of freak. So, mission accomplished?!

All prodding aside, Manson’s always had some interesting and controversial videos, and I can respect that. From an avant-garde artsy standpoint, I kind of like this video even though it confuses me to no end. Watch it above and bask in it. After basking, you should probably take a shower though. I feel dirty.

LEAK: Marilyn Manson – The High End Of Low

Filed Under: Uncategorized
May.19, 2009

THREE TIMES IN TWENTY FOUR HOURS I AM SICK OF SEEING HIS FACE GHSDPGHEGHERH.

Anyway, Marilyn Manson’s High End of Low leaked today. You already know what I think of it, so I won’t write anymore.

You can pick this up on the seven seas right now, or you can wait to get it May 26th.

I was going to post his new video for Arma-Goddamn-Motherfuckin-Geddon below, but apparently every video of it on YouTube has embedding disabled. Honestly, if you cared enough, you already saw it. It’s the best song on the album, which is pretty much saying that crabs is the best STD.

Marilyn Manson Samples Entire New Album

Filed Under: New music, Upcoming releases
May.19, 2009

And just as I expected, it’s a snooze fest.

Some songs are pretty okay, like Arma-Goddamn-Motherfucking-Geddon, but the rest just seems totally uninspired and boring to me. A lot of the songs have that same sound to them: Slow tempo with Manson crooning on. I’m not a fan of his vocals at all.

Well if you’re into Manson, check out the stream at the link above. High End Of Low hits stores May 26th.
