Product Description
Rather than conforming to the demands of conventional biography, this book performs something closer to a cultural autopsy on the androgynous satanic idol. Each of the seven chapters emphasizes the idea that the engagingly depraved musician is being put under the knife, taking an aspect of the Manson mythos and examining it in an irreverent yet authoritative manner. With its heavily visual approach, Dissecting Marilyn Manson gives the impression of a pathological scrapbook. By analyzing the themes of androgyny, sex, sadomasochism, drugs, devil worship, childhood fears, and selling out, Gavin Baddeley lays bare not only one artist, but the underside of the contemporary music industry.
