Destroy conventional morality? hehe. What's that? What would you replace it with? Manson-ality? What a wonderful world that would be(rolling eyes) - we could all pretend to be evil and the devil incarnate when all we would really be after is to sell a few records. There's no getting around the fact that Manson is fucking ridiculous shock-rock. Their music is a joke, all it has to stand up on is dressing up funny. You're putting way too much importance on a band that people will have long forgotten in 2 years and who will probably be remembered with much less fondness than Alice Cooper (wonder what he's up to these days?), whose act they've blatantly stolen. And there is no difference between them and Celine Dion or No Doubt, they are all pop bands - only manson wears more makeup. _____ / ,-,_) /,_) (/ RESH Live & Direct from the G-Spot, Orange County, California, USA http://www1.linkonline.net/fresh/fresh.htm
