Book Description
Marilyn Manson is more than a mere musician - he is a rock phenomenon. He has created a phantasmal world of freaks that has proved irresistible to a whole generation of disaffected youth. In Dissecting Marilyn Manson, Baddeley performs a cultural autopsy upon Manson, examining the seminal influences and psychotic sources that have gone into making him the fascinating Frankenstein's monster that he surely is. With its heavily visual approach, the text and pictures help to create the impression of a pathological scrapbook, emphasising the idea of the performer being put under the knife, reflecting the Manson mythos and exploring it in an irreverent manner.

Although I'm not a die-hard Manson fan, I found the book very interesting and insightful. Gavin Baddeley explores the cultural influences that turned Brian Warner into Marilyn Manson, but in a very refreshing way. Instead of the usual preoccupation with young Brian's childhood traumas or his relationship with Trent Reznor, you get to read about Hollywood stardom, Freud, KISS, Dr Seuss, the hippie era, sci-fi literature, the Decadent poets of France, Oscar Wilde, David Bowie, The Beatles, and much more! I found Mr Baddeley's obsession with the Columbine massacre a bit overdone at times, but otherwise the book was excellent. Needless to say, a must-read for fans.

Uncommonly comprehensive. Absolutely necessary.
14. August 2000
Format:Taschenbuch
If you're looking for a Marilyn Manson biography, this is certainly not the book you should buy. "Dissecting Marilyn Manson" goes beyond comparison and beneath the surface.
It discusses what lies under one of the most controversial artists ever, providing the reader with special information on Freud, KISS, Dr. Seuss, Walt Disney, Roald Dahl, Alice Cooper, NIN,Aleister Crowley,Dr. Hook, Baudelaire,Marquis de Sade, Darwin, Nietzche, Pink Floyd, Anton LaVey, The Beatles, Oscar Wilde, Masoch, Kenneth Anger, David Lynch and John Kennedy and these people's influences on Manson's thoughtas well as some curiosities on a number of different subjects as smoking, drugs, transvestites, cultural archetypes Marilyn Monroe and Charles Manson, internet and fascism.
This is the newest publication on Marilyn Manson and as so, it comes with a lot of recent information, absent in older books, as well as some great colorful pictures of the book's subject.
Written by a really skilled author who, as all satanists, really knows what he''s talking about, "Dissecting Marilyn Manson" is a really complete and deep piece of literature that leaves no lack of information.
After the Long Hard Road out of Hell, this is the first time I see a book worthy of dealing with such a cultural phenomenon as Marilyn Manson is.

The title says it all
5. Februar 2001
Format:Taschenbuch
This is definitely the most unusual book I have read about Marilyn Manson, rather than looking at the group's exploits, it takes a very indepth look at what makes MM tick. All of his early influences and heroes are looked at with an excellent and informative manner. However this is not a autobiography by any means. It does exactly what the title says, dissects him and many other people in the music scene. This is a book for Manson fans who have read all the usual stuff, and want to dig a little deeper, it clearly explains his ideas and points of view on his music and what he is trying to express. The bands message sometimes gets lost in the excitement of there performances, and this book helps you to see some of the things you may have missed or misinterpreted first time around, the book can be slightly hard going, but perservere and its still a satisfying read.

Admirable Journalism
13. Oktober 2002
Format:Taschenbuch
I have read more than my fair share of interviews and editorials on this artist; it is a must for anyone tired of them, hungary for more, or simply curious. Essentially devoid of meaningless non-commital banter, the author manages to address nearly every subject parralel and adjacent to the band's life and leader. It was such an intriguing read that I still think about it whenever any aspect of the artist comes up in daily life. In fact, for the purpose of journalistic study, I try to make time to read over it again.
