Avis sur le produitMarilyn Manson: Dead to the World (VHS, 1998) Advisory-Paroles explicites RARE NEUF

Not Dead to Me

Admittedly, my fairly recent introduction to the varied music by Marilyn Manson has led to a certain level of obsession. This weekend I got the opportunity to watch this videotape from 1998.

It was highly entertaining and gave a nice look behind the scenes. Well, maybe nice isn't the right word; this is not for the faint of heart. Nor is it horrifying, though, and the only thing that made me squeamish was watching the audience accept his invitation to spit at the stage (I can definitely think of more pleasant ways to interact).

True to form, Mr. Manson invites the viewer to see him in a totally non-typical Hollywood way. There is nothing pretty about it as Brian Warner expresses his ongoing war against conformity and stereotyping with candor and intelligence.

In one surprising scene, however you get to see him smile with natural good humor and that alone made this worthwhile. It was wonderful to see him without that refrained visage featured in all his photo shoots. Every red carpet image I've seen is devoid of human warmth, as if his face might crack upon smiling.

Equally, the demanding artist does not spare us his angry side when his high standards are not met. I think he tolerates mistakes as long as they are not repeated. In fact, within the range of elements rigidly laid out for each performance, chaos is welcomed. He embraces flaw as an inherent condition of the human race.

Seeing the audience respond to the man's unique brand of charisma is almost eerie. He has said he in so many words that if doing anything else, being a revival leader would best fit what he does now. I believe it as I watch the amorphous mass of people speak in tongues as they follow the litany of their shepherd guiding his flock.

The music speaks for itself. I've never heard any other group provide so many wondrous and varied versions of their songs. There is a trombone soloist featured during one number that blew me away. I couldn't help wondering what that musician does when not playing to support the music. It made me regret dropping the instrument after high school. That would be one sweet gig (if you don't mind living like a vagabond, that is).

Very professionally assembled, the videotape had great sound. The VHS tape I obtained received excellent care at the hands of its former owner and didn't display any annoying artifacts, crackling and hissing, or breaks in reception.

Anyone interested in live music has to admire the craftsmanship involved in all that these esteemed artists endeavor. Marilyn Manson fans should definitely include this in their collection.Lire l'avis complet...

Manson Video

The thing is, is that you do not see too many great deals in life. I could not find this video anywhere, I've looked for it for 8 years because I knew there is nothing else quite like this. IT IS AWESOME !!!!! Manson today is something I do not care for in fact the last great cd he made is Antichrist Superstar!!
I really like Portrait of An American Family as well. This was the best price for this tape. It was in great condition. I really enjoy watching it. It rocks your socks off and will make you want to slap a christian.Best set of Manson concerts ever. There wasn't really anything I disliked about it. I LOVED IT!!!!Lire l'avis complet...

Extreme but in a good way !

Really great unedited tape of the band during it's Antichrist Superstar tour days. Interview clips and live performance are interwoven throughout the 1 hour long video. It gives you a quick review of what to expect from the notorious Bad boy of alternative everyone seems to hate. He is the son of a preacher who sees things differently than the normal person which adds to his unusual personna. You just can't fault an individual for wanting to be different and not follow the norm.Lire l'avis complet...

Great View into the beginning of Marilyn Manson's 30 year reign.

This was one of my biggest "stepping stones" into what I could come to be the start of a fascination in to Marilyn Manson's art form,and is Manson at his best.
I had lost this somewhere along the way,so I sought to replace it,and I was very satisfied that I could still find it at a reasonable price.But I imagine that VHS tapes are going to eventually start to dry up.So,I would say grab on while they're still around.Lire l'avis complet...

Dead to the World, and Alive and Reigning

This is the definitive Marliyn Manson dvd. Definitive? Because it pushes the boundaries which society says don't cross. The songs write the story of a journey and are meaningful. Marliyn shows that he is a superstar not for just being a good entertainer, but because he has lived the songs he writes about. True masterpiece.Lire l'avis complet...

Dead to the World tour

It's the best backstage and concert video of the Antichrist era in VHS. It has great interview footage. Dark songs like 1996 and Angel with the Scabbed wings rare live Apple of sodom. Also one of the few official live videos with Zim Zum.Lire l'avis complet...
