listened to "Learn and Burn."  Good stuff.  Definitely in the vein of The Allman Brothers (or at least this track).  I just hear a lot of classic influences I enjoy.  I'll be looking for this one on vinyl for sure.  Thanks!

it would have been more shocking to hear a good song from marilyn manson rather than try that hard with that video. i haven't liked anything of his since...mechanical animals i think.

I have to disagree with teeps about the interstitial scenes in the Manson vid. They are easily the best thing in the video. The tossed-together sets and terrible acting give those scenes a trashy John Waters (or maybe early David Lynch?) vibe that's fairly effective.  The rest of the video is Manson stuck in the same rut he's been in for the last dozen years: trying too hard to be transgressive and ending up trite and ridiculous.

Manson's MO is presenting the everyday banalities as horror (which is pretty fertile ground).  To make that idea work, it's crucially important to keep everything a little shoddy, a little familiar, to really drive home the horror.  I think that's why POAFF is the best thing Manson put out.  Much as he wants to set himself up as a superstar/god/devil/whatever, he's much more disturbing as the weirdo obsessively splicing tapes of Willy Wonka and Charlie Manson in a bedroom down the street.

As far as the song goes you hit the nail on the head. It's the sound of someone rewriting "Cake and Sodomy" and doing a real shit job of it.

At this point I'm almost willing to believe that he's doing this on purpose: purposefully parodying himself.  I disagree that there are ANY decent parts to this smeared abortion.  It's really, really sad.

Kinda makes me wish he would have OD after Holywood. Shit, even Golden age is leaps and bounds better then this...But ya... this is horrible...

On the plus side, he seems to have lost some weight, so I had to change my profile pic.

Insane Clown Posse featuring Jack White sampling a Mozart song about anilingus.  This is a thing that actually exists.

This just in.  Jack White may be an awesome guitar player, but if those are real quotes, then he is one asskissing bullshit artist akin with George Lucas' panel of judges for the Blu-Ray Star Wars release.

Manorexia - Dinoflagellate Blooms

More awesomeness from JG Thirlwell.  In some ways I think this is superior to even the latest Foetus album.  JGT retains the creepy cinematic quality of the earlier Manorexia albums, but the experimental aspect of the project is now tempered with the compositional structure of Steriod Maximus (and even the Venture Bros work).  It's pretty freakin' sweet.

rynne- you totally hit the nail on the head re: Marilyn Manson

Also, it's too soon for me to comment on the Jack White/ICP atrocity.
