Of all Manson albums this mE is the hardest. The beats are hard and fast, the sound thrashy. Although Manson yells as never before the disc is catchy as his previous hate speech. The melodies are catchy, the rhythm consistent - and in spite of everything is "Golden Age" is the ultimate hardness and deals with a wide diversified range of topics of sex on drug violence and past regimes, to which one reluctantly recalls!
With its predecessor "Holy Wood", this album is my favorite of our unchristian superstar.
