Description
Marilyn Manson - The Pale Emperor Clear Vinyl LP.
Limited to Only 2,000 Copies!
Conjured from a séance into a true renaissance. This is, without a doubt, bona fide Marilyn Manson.
It is all swagger and does not miss a beat on his ninth, newest studio album, THE PALE EMPEROR. The seer, scribe, painter, actor, criminal, panderer of chaos, live performer...oh, and rock and roll demagogue, thee Marilyn Manson roars back above the froth of mass-media and ass mediocrity to deliver a set of soul-stripping, kiss-smearing, church floor-burning songs that stand, unequivocally, as his most fully-wrought album since 1998’s epochal Mechanical Animals.
If that's a mouthful, grab a drink brothers and sisters!
THE PALE EMPEROR does not just capture our cultural moment, but sinks swamp-deep into equally redneck, snake-handling Baptist-revival-tent terror. He shape-shifts vocally from preacher man to the fangs and venom of the serpent that he holds. (And, just to be clear, while more baddass than bitch, he looks better in ruby lipstick than most ingénues.)
Marilyn Manson has long had his hand on the pulse; now the pulse again moves to the ministrations of his hand. Since he created a 'band' in the early '90s bearing his namesake in the mangroves of southern Florida, Marilyn Manson has utilized a rotating cast of cohorts to deliver his music and message.
With THE PALE EMPEROR, Manson introduces his newest foil, Tyler Bates. Manson and Bates first met on the set of Californication. Although they did not work together musically on that show, recently their song “Cupid Carries a Gun,” was used in the opening titles to the hit series, Salem, that was also scored by Bates.
Sounding like a conflicted black and blues combination of a life-lived,
THE PALE EMPEROR is a nod to Manson favorites like Tom Waits, David Bowie, Alice Cooper, Joy Division and T. Rex. In its use of space and texture, THE PALE EMPEROR evokes shades of PJ Harvey, The Birthday Party and Bauhaus. Intimate yet epic; this Emperor embodies a purposeful paradox. Wide-screen sonic storytelling is the essence of THE PALE EMPEROR.
