5.0 out of 5 stars We came to see the mOBSCENE!, May 6, 2003

By A Customer

I don't know what a couple of people are complaining about...this is a really awesome track. I also enjoyed Paranoiac, although I can't really decide which one I like better.

I have already listened to the new album and Manson is really loud, snotty, and mean-sounding, and composed the album with the musical genius he has always shown - all the things that have always made him great. Manson says he has come full circle musically with this CD, and its true. It has elements from all his past albums but is fresh enough to not sound old.

I personally think Golden Age of Grotesque is his best work to date. My personal favorites are Vodevil in which he screams "this isn't music..and we're not a band". (S)aint is also awesome and so is The Bright Young Things. I've already reserved my copy of the CD and I can't wait!

1.0 out of 5 stars the album isn't this bad..., August 1, 2003

By	D.N. - See all my reviews

2 songs for a CD single. I paid about 5 dollars for it! The Para-Noir remix Paranoiac sounds almost exactly the same, actually it offers less variety than the real track! 2 songs, no enhancement, no video, no real booklet. RIP-OFF.

5.0 out of 5 stars Be obscene, be be obscene!, April 30, 2003

By	Stephen J. Dumont "Freakazoid" (Dallas, TX USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A cheerleader's worse nightmare, being in a Manson song! This single has to be one of Manson's most promising works. The sound is flawless, he has never sounded better, and the songs are definitely not over/under produced. The lyrics remain true to Manson's style but the sound is different, in a very good way. If this is just a tasty morsel of Manson's new album, I feel that we all will be very happy with the full-length. The video to this song is pretty cool too if you get the chance to see it. I tried forever to hear this song on the radio or find a clip on the net, but to no avail. I finally saw the single at a local record store so I scoffed it up. It is worth the whole 4 bucks I paid for it. Definitely one song I will be singing along with for a while, well, until the May 13th when The Golden Age of the Grotesque is released to a very ravenous audience.
