During the Holy Wood era of Manson this was the unremovable album in my high school girlfriend's car. I had to listen to it more than I care to remember. Even back then I thought Manson was a self aggrandizing weirdo with no real talent. Coming back to it I feel very much the same. The industrial sound is washed out and grimy, his lyrics are overwrought and self-important.   There are little nuggets of synths and clips that you can tell were put in my Reznor. All in all, not an enjoyable listen. Industrial was done better before and better after. If he debuted today people would argue about him being an industry plant.
