More guitar than expected

Four years have passed since the last studio album by Manson. With the new plant, "Eat Me, Drink Me" the shock rocker wants a particular person to seduce, whose identity he did not want to divulge. He also admits that he brings to this plate to the point where it is just as a human being and vearbeitet the separation of ex-wife Dita Von Teese, but of course without putting themselves on public display. Oh well. Of these, one may keep what you want, the same applies to the headlines for Manson makes repeatedly. But I do not need to write about it so here. The CD was produced by Manson again in cooperation Tim Skold (ex-KMFDM), written and recorded. I find it a pity that you will find in the booklet and on the website so little information about Tim Skold, who Manson now already supports some time on bass, in the studio and writing.

"Eat Me, Drink Me" comes in a fancy audio DVD Case, the booklet offers some pictures of the art person Marilyn Manson in oblique Artwork on. Unfortunately you can not read dark red text on a black background necessarily as good and the lyrics are also not found in order, but that does not detract from the music yes. The disc is for me not a big surprise, it is Manson and Manson it is indoors. The music lives mainly of the characteristic voice, of course, they would have for my taste too calm can rock a little more .However is "Eat Me, Drink Me" pretty guitar-heavy for a Manson-plate and less Industrial loading, as might be expected from many other but very electronically through the effects. So it is perhaps for some but a surprise and may this be so indeed be a bit disappointed, while others may therefore only find an access to the music of Mr. Manon. I like any event equal to the first song "If I Was Your Vampire" - which starts very slowly and quietly, and then the chorus is more rocky - totally good. The other songs are quite good, I had a little passed less sound effects here and there, I sometimes find it by on the border with Overloaded. I would also run on the last track, can do without the additional mix of the single "Heart-Shaped Glass", for the song you missed a disco sound you can really almost did not listen because of the annoying synths in the chorus. Where such disguised as bonus stopgap really be?
