Format:Audio CD
Simply, without a big long spiel, this album is quite possibly one of the most stunning rock albums ever to grace the earth. Holy Wood is 20 tracks of music that is so wonderfully intense that it leaves you baying for more.
Fans of Marilyn Manson and anyone who has ever felt disaffected or dismayed with the state of the world should sit down and play this album with the volume as high as it can possibly go because it is quite literally a big middle finger on a CD in musical incarnation.
There is nothing on this album that Manson doesn't cover; gun-culture (namely the blistering attack on it in the powerful 'The Love Song'), obcession with celebrity, assassination (Kennedy, Lennon, etc.)
Some of his most powerful work to date can be found on this album, especially with regard to the anthemic 'Disposable Teens', a fist hammering industrial ballad devoted to the disposessed and unwanted.
Not all of the album is heavy and there are also some really beautiful tracks in which the melancholy and possibly even the hurt of Marilyn Manson himself seem to shine quietly through the lyrics (mind you, having just been blamed for the Columbine massacre, who wouldn't be upset?) An excellent, haunting example of this would be the powerful 'In The Shadow Of The Valley Of Death'
Musically diverse and with a huge number of obvious and more subtle facets, this album is everything that a Marilyn Manson fan could ask for and stands out as a powerful statement against the throw-away and often cruel society in which we live. With tracks like 'Disposable Teens', 'The Nobodies', 'President Dead' and many others, I would think it fair to say that this is quite possibly the most powerful Marilyn Manson album released to date and will certainly take some effort to beat.
Marilyn Manson, the essence of the message summed up on one CD. If you haven't already, you REALLY need to buy this album. Powerful, bold...you certainly wont be disappointed.

Here is a bit more background information about the album, that I didn't include in my previous review (Great - but not his best).
Here's a bit of background to the album: After the Columbine killings, Manson was blamed for the killings (although it was later found the kids who did the shooting hated Manson and his music), Manson's Rock is Dead tour (Mechanical Animals) was cut short, and Manson, fearing for his life, fled to his home where he had to spend 3 (count em!) whole months hiding in his attic from the public. He spend the months ferociously writing song after song for the album 'Holy Wood', very embittered. Manson wrote an article about the Columbine Killings for Rolling Stone magazine, which you find if you look around a bit.
The album is mainly about society, especially American society, and how the media glamorises deaths. Manson has moved on from his personas of the Antichrist Superstar and the androgynous alien rockstar Omega, and is now (though less obvious) Adam Kadmon, the original human (from Jewish mysticism). Manson said: "It was sort of pointing out that circle that religion is the origin of entertainment, and I was trying to show that I could relate my life to characters in history like Christ or Kennedy or John Lennon and how people are often martyred for being misunderstood".
http://www.resnet.trinity.edu/ddamon/hierophant/index.htm says "The album itself is a product of Hebrew Kabala, celebrities and serial killers, biblical scripture, freemasonry, history, and bizarre internet resources. He draws on the Tarot cards, much as he does front page news, to produce his most brilliant work". The site is great for analysing MM and his works. A moderately detailed analysis of Holy Wood and of the other albums can also be found at http://www.marilynmansonimages.com/band-history6.html
There is no doubt about it, spend long enough analysing the lyrics, and you will see that Manson put a huge amount of depth into this album.

The mass killings in Columbine left a dark shadow over America, with the powers that be desperately looking for some one to blame, the person elect was Marilyn Manson.
Manson came out swinging, and with this record said, that if your going to point the finger at me, I will point the finger right back at you and tell the real reasons that this happened.
The reason he cited, were organised religion and alienation of those who don't fit in with ideal of what is expectable to belong in high school , as well as Americas vast appetite for guns.
This is a breathtaking collection of songs, that at first seem very superficial shock songs, but when the surface is starched, all of what was mentioned before leaps to the forefront.
There are many reasons that you should own this record, the best reasons being
1. The Nobodies
2. The Fight Song
3. Crucifixion in space
4. Disposal Teens
5. Burning Flag
Are all examples of Manson left of centre look way of telling a story, this is a cautionary tale of how America is losing its way and the reasons for it, at least the reason according to Manson.
Also in over an hour and ten minuets of music, encompassing industrial, straight hard rock, techno and pop over tones into one Manson most expansive and impressive releases to date.

Don't listen to this expecting Antichrist Superstar Part 2, because it's not. It's not nearly as industrial sounding or experimental. Read more
