WE ARE CHAOS explicit_lyrics

This CD arrived promptly on day of release and in immaculate condition. The first thing that struck me was the overall design of the cover, featuring a printed copy of an original portrait of Marilyn Manson, by Marilyn himself. The image is set against a black background and is striking, the same colour palette is used throughout the card CD cover. The album title along with the artist's title are added to the outer edges of the cover. The reverse cover, depicts a cross, with crossmembers pointing towards the tracks on the album. As a bonus, there is another print of one of Marilyn's own artworks - a small poster size (14" x 14") which includes the lyrics to all the tracks on the reverse. A lot of thought has gone into the presentation of this CD 'cover packaging' and it would make a lovely gift for a fan of Marilyn's work. The CD, emblazoned with black and grey tones with a dominant silver cross as a central feature. The silver reflects the spectrum of colours as it is moved under light. The CD includes ten tracks, including the familiar "We Are Chaos". I love the album - I have bought a number of Marilyn's albums over the years and this one is a masterpiece. I particularly love "Solve Coagula" and "Broken Needle", although I love the album in its entirety. The thought that has gone into this entire album shows a real maturity, the standard is excellent, the attention to detail is perfect. I would recommend this album as a gift for any fan of Marilyn Manson's work, or for those yet to discover that there is far more to this man than they may have guessed. Excellent album, proud to add it to my collection!

After greatly enjoying The Pale Emperor (2015) and Heaven Upside Down (2017), I thought I'd keep the ball rolling and purchase Marilyn Manson's new highly acclaimed album, We Are Chaos. The album was released in September 11th, 2020 and was released through Loma Vista Records and Concord Records. The album is the first in years without Tyler Bates and instead sees Manson working with Shooter Jennings, son of the legendary Waylon Jennings. The change in producers has an interesting effect of Marilyn Manson's material. He went from a rather stale collection of albums to a second wind with Bates. Now, with Jennings behind the helm, it's like Manson is set to reclaim his throne on top of the goth podium. This is found through out the album in songs like Red Black And Blue, Infinite Darkness and Broken Needle. They're very dark and have quite a grim tone to them. The single We Are Chaos is a great tune with a fantastic chorus. It reminds me a little more of that '80s goth music. Songs like Perfume and Coagula remind me a bit on Manson's Holy Wood period. It's a good blend of music and brings a bit of variety to the mix. Despite enjoying We Are Chaos and being very happy with the product, I feel that this album is just missing something. I don't know what it is. It seems like Manson needs a good guitarist or bass player to get the riffs back in his songs. It's a certain something that I miss about his music. The music here isn't without their hooks, but they're not quite as effective as the previous two albums and certainly pales in comparison to '90s Manson. That sounds a lot more pessimistic than I intended. It's only a minor gripe, honestly. We Are Chaos is not Marilyn Manson's best album musically but I can fully understand why people would love it. I really enjoyed it myself. It's a strong record with really good production. Jennings and Manson clearly have good chemistry, it could only be improved by having a fully working band for the next one. I can only hope. If the last two appealed to you, this is an easy buy. It's a little different tonally but has the same maturity behind it.

Thats when I have to say WWAAAOOOW Please be advised that you should listen to this album with headphones, eyes closed and no distractions. its not long but is fkng gorgeous from start to finish. Some of the songs actually stopped me, I just had to stop what I was doing and just let it all in. Though short, this album packs an emotional punch in parts, most of the songs almost had me in tears because they were so relatable. Its a very human album if that makes sense. I didn't even know it was out until the other day and I grabbed the disc from here. The record comes with some really creepy art that I will put up on my wall for sure. I don't really know what to say about this album just yet but I cant stop listening to it and I am talking about the entire album not just a few songs her and there. It reminds me of a lot of old songs from Mechanical Animals and Holywood but don't know which ones lol. The lyrics are great and straight up. The vibe is really rich this entire albums just spews good tunes and that iconic voice we all love. I also get this strange synthy 80's vibe behind the chaos. its really addictive. I just wish it was 20 songs long. Look just shut up and buy this damn album its really good.

Wow! I missed this album on release. MM at his best. Gorgeous, melodic, amazing. I can't stop playing it. Blown away!

I spent a while trying to decide on my favourite tracks but realised this is a good old fashioned album that’s best appreciated from start to finish. The different pacing and style of songs is very satisfying, often surprising. It’s the first album I’ve heard from him in a while where I feel the music is unforced, he’s being himself and not trying to imitate past glories. I found myself revisiting/alternating it with Mechanical Animals and Holy Wood and it’s also helped me get into some of his more recent albums which I’d overlooked.

As a big obsessed Marilyn Manson fan since I was a teenager at 14 to an adult at 38 today I must say his new album "We Are Chaos" is one of best ones he has so far. All the tracks are superb and brilliant. You can listen to them all day on repeat and you won't get bored, trust me. Nothing compares to his other albums. It still sounds like Manson but just a nice glow to it. You can listen to his music for free on YouTube but buying the actual CD shows respect to the artist on top of owning something you can touch with your hand unlike listening to it on your electronics. What are you waiting for, buy the CD and you won't regret it. I purchased two of them because I'm a collector and want one sealed. This CD comes in a non jewel case. The artwork is beautiful. Every song is magnificent in his new album all 10 tracks. Not one song you'll get bored and skip. My favourite song is "Don't Chase the Dead". Thanks MM, you made a masterpiece.

Disco maturo, completo, solido... forse perfetto. Credo che se ne parlerà anche fra 20 anni come uno di quei dischi rappresentativi sia di una carriera ma anche più in generale di un periodo storico. Qui MM dopo troppi anni di vuoto costellato di parodie di se stesso, dimostra di essere arrivato a un punto molto alto della sua carriera, a un certo apice nella padronanza del suo stile. Potrebbe essere come considerato, senza essere blasfemo, come uno di quei dischi che Bowie ha realizzato nell'ultima parte della sua carriera... Suona come Mechanical Animals, è orecchiabile, accattivante e soprattutto cantabile, ma oltre a questo porta con se tutta la sua carriera, quasi trentennale, che si avverte nelle sfumature della voce. Un uomo sulla cinquantina che sa fare il suo mestiere ed oggi ci ha regalato un disco che è già un classico. Nota a mio avviso negativa è il packaging del cd. È vero che nessuno li compra più ormai, però potevano realizzarlo meglio dato che è fatto proprio al risparmio. All'interno c'è un piccolo poster con i testi ma... Potevano renderlo un po' più sostanzioso. Avrei voluto prendere il vinile rosa che vendevano sul sito dell'etichetta ma l'assurdità del costo delle spese di spedizione, me lo ha reso decisamente ostico. Peccato che qui ci sia solo il vinile nero... Amazon come al solito è straordinaria dato che me lo ha portato a casa in meno di ventiquattrore dalla data di uscita. Mitici!

MARILYN MANSON - "We are Chaos" (2020) Ich kann wirklich nicht von mir behaupten, dass ich ein großer Fan von MARILYN MANSON bin, mir ist der Typ ein bisschen zu schräg und Alternative Metal zählt auch nicht zu meinen bevorzugten Musikgenres. Insofern ist "We are Chaos", das neueste Album von MARILYN MANSON, eigentlich auch völlig unbeachtet an mir vorbeigerauscht. Eigentlich ..... denn neulich habe ich bei ROCK ANTENNE zufällig "Don't Chase the Dead" gehört und war sofort begeistert. Zum Glück werden bei den modern Radios Titel und Interpret angezeigt und als da "MARILYN MANSON" stand, bin ich fast vom Glauben abgefallen. Warum? Weil die Nummer so gar nicht das ist, was ich von ihm erwarten würde. Der Song hat unfassbare Ohrwurmqualitäten, ich habe den einmal gehört und nicht mehr aus dem Kopf bekommen. Der Song hat mich sofort an DAVID BOWIE erinnert, was kein Zufall ist, denn sowohl MARILYN MANSON, als auch Produzent SHOOTER JENNINGS, sind angeblich bekennende Fans der Pop-Ikone. Diese Kooperation ist von vornerein sehr ungewöhnlich, denn JENNINGS kommt eher aus der Country- und Folk-Ecke und hat eigentlich nicht viel mit der Musik von MARILYN MANSON am "Stetson". Ich vermute mal, dass es vor allem sein Verdienst war, dass MANSON hier musikalisch in ruhigeren Gewässer schippert. Wie auch immer, da ich ein sehr aufgeschlossener Mensch bin, zumindest was Musik betrifft, habe ich natürlich sofort in das Album reingehört und war völlig von den Socken. Der Opener "Red Black and Blue" lässt eventuell noch ein ein Industrial- oder Alternative-Album erwarten, aber spätestens beim Titelsong "We are Chaos" spitzt man interessiert die Ohren. Was man von MARILYN MANSON nicht erwarten würde, sind sind die einfühlsamen Akustikgitarren, der eingängige Gesang und diese brutalen Ohrwurmqualitäten. Auch die Nummer geht eindeutig in die Richtung DAVID BOWIE. "Don'Chase the Dead" habe ich ja bereits erwähnt, die Nummer ist zwar ein klein wenig härter, nistet sich aber ebenfalls sofort in den Gehörgängen ein, für mich ist das definitiv einer der besten Songs des ganzen Jahres! Die Kooperation mit Country-Rocker SHOOTER JENNINGS, scheint MARILYN MANSON gut getan zu haben, denn er hört sich hier viel gereifter und nicht mehr so schräg an .... zumindest gefällt mir das viel besser als alles was ich bis dahin von ihm gehört habe. "Paint you with my Love" ist eine wunderschöne Ballade, sehr einfühlsam gesungen, aber dennoch hat auch dieser Song so eine düstere Grundstimmung. Diese zieht sich durch das ganze Album, was es für mich sehr speziell macht. Toller Refrain, der bleibt ebenso schnell hängen wie die der vorherigen Songs - ganz starke Nummer! Dasselbe gilt auch für "Half-Way & One Step Forward", ebenfalls eine Granate, ein Ohrwurm par excellence ... geniale Nummer! Sogar den Alternative-Nummern kann ich was abgewinnen, "Infinite Darkness" und "Parfume" finde ich grandios, sehr düster und bedrohlich, auch "Keep my Head Together" dröhnt kraft- und stimmungsvoll aus den Boxen. Auch die Halbballade "Broken Needle" gefällt mir unfassbar gut, der Song ist sehr melancholisch, düster und er wirkt unheimlich bedrohlich. Das ist eine sehr stimmungsvolle Nummer mit einer ganz speziellen Atmosphäre, einfach klasse. Der Song hat zwar nicht diesen BOWIE-Touch, gefällt mir aber trotzdem unheimlich gut. Wenn das eine LP wäre, würde ich behauten, dass auf Seite 1 eine andere Band zu hören ist, als auf Seite 2. Während die ersten Songs tatsächlich diesen BOWIE-Spirit verströmen, geht die zweite Hälfte eher in die Richtung, die ich eigentlich von MARILYN MANSON erwartete hätte, allerdings sehr gemäßigt ... würde ich jetzt mal behaupten. Anspieltipps wären für mich der Titelsong "We are Chaos", die Mörder-Nummer "Don't Chase the Dead", die Balladen "Broken Needle", ""Paint you with my Love" und "Half-Way & One Step Forward", sowie "Parfume". Das sind also in erster Linie die Songs, die ich jetzt nicht als typisch für MARILYN MANSON erachten würde. Dieser BOWIE-Spirit hat mir extrem gut gefallen, das kombiniert mit der düsteren MANSON-Stimmung .... ich finde das Album durch die Bank klasse. Mein Fazit: Manchmal beschert der Zufall einem wirklich etwas ganz besonderes, so wie das Album "We are Chaos" von MARILYN MANSON, über das ich im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes gestolpert bin. Nur gut, dass es jetzt auch Radiosender gibt, die sich auf Metal spezialisiert haben, wie eben die ROCK ANTENNE. Ich bin wirklich kein Kenner von MARILYN MANSON, den mag ich eigentlich nicht so, aber dieses Album ist klasse. Ich würde sogar soweit gehen und behaupten, dass es eines der besten des gesamten Jahres 2020 ist .... unfassbar, dass ich sowas von einem MANSOM-Album sage!!! ;-)
