The Unauthorized Biography
Parental advisory - explicit content.
From the swamplands of Southern Florida they came, a whacked-out little outfit called Marilyn Manson and the Spooky Kids. Feeding themselves on nursery rhymes and magic tricks, they grew and grew until they were big enough to leave the death-metal scene of their youth and head to the candyland of MTV and record deals. Their fearless leader had hatched a fiendish plot, and the beautiful people weren't watching their backs . . .
In this unauthorised biography of a band whose goal is no less than the end of the world as we know it, all the scary, nasty, down-and-dirty details are presented in their gory glory. From the band's formation in 1989 and their early gigs, through Portrait Of An American Family and Smells Like Children, to their current outrageously high profile, this book covers it all, and features a chronology and a discography.
