This is good, Marilyn Manson promises new country album

ITS OFFICIAL –MARILYN MANSON CONFIRMS HE WILL BE RELEASING COUNTRY ALBUM SOON, SEVERAL PRESS AGENCIES REPORT. Although some think the move is a bit of a stretch, Reba McEntire, who duets with him on his first country album explains: "Well, here I was sitting by my lonesome at home, looking out the winder, when ol’ Marilyn Manson calls me up and says ‘Ms McEntire, would you like to do a duet with me on my next album?’ So I says to Mr Manson, Now you wouldn’t be pulling a prank on little ol’ Reber would you, and he said no, he’s serious, he was so inspired by the work I did with Kelly Clarkson he wanted to see if he could do as good even though he’s kind of more of a punk feller he is actually a big fan of blue grass and country. I told him if you ain’t yeller let’s get ‘er done!"
Mr Manson sees the change in genres as a natural: "Talking to Reber, I mean Reba, really clarified my participation in country as the next natural step in my musical evolution. I have to admit, the nihilism thing is getting a little old. It’s time for me to come back to earth a little while and communicate about things like cornbread and chicken (I’m a big fan of Allen Jackson, by the way.)
Manson’s lyrics on the new album are fascinating. He bridges the gap by delivering a transition rendition of an old song with the following lyrics:

Beautiful People! Beautiful People!
Rascal Flatts, doesn’t rhyme with steeple!

Manson’s version of country is also tender at times, such as in his song "Party Tractor"

I guess I was a little high
I guess you are a little dead
Sorry that I did some acid
and drove the John Deere over your head

And as for Manson’s new appearance? "It’s been my toughest challenge. I found out that a cowboy hat made out of human skin would be illegal. I’m still working on that one."
Tune in later for more fascinating updates

    I hope this is just a joke. First off, Reba doesn’t talk like that. Second, Marlyon Manson is just gonna suck at country music. He’s to ****ing weird!!

    i suspect it’s a prank, BUT as a fan since 1994, i’ve been saying for years that manson should broaden his musical horizons and try something different. the last album was ok, but a purely accoustic recording would have been even more memorable. i think he could pull off country, the way the beatles and even the beastie boys have. and take hank williams the third fpr example, that guy is the ultimate country punk rocker! heck, manson should give hank3 some production space on the new record. hey MM, check out my homepage!!!

    **** that!!! manson will never sing ****ry ****! what about the news about his new album with twiggy ramirez?

  5. Ricky on June 9th, 2008 7:29 am

    THIS BETTER BE A JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If not I’ll probably REDRUM someone, or commit suicide. It can’t be true. Ive listened to manson since I was NINE YEARS OLD. (WTF).

    It’s a joke. It’s hard to tell only because it isn’t funny.

    i agree with ricky, i will jump off the freaking empire state building, taking all of you with me if this is true…which i doubt it is because it just sounds stupid in the first place…but who knows (GAHHHH)

  10. Chocolate on June 24th, 2008 3:55 am

    This is BS.

    These kinds of rumors about Manson have been floating around since the 90s.

    You guys are stupid.

  11. JakiH on June 25th, 2008 1:05 am

    yah its a bit weird but any TRUE manson fan would accept his choices… even though i strongly feel this is probobly a joke…

  12. Mathew on July 3rd, 2008 4:23 pm

    I think this may good thing if true.
    Though I feel it’s a joke but i would want a return of Mechanical Animals

  13. Mark on July 20th, 2008 12:07 am

    Yet another stupid rumor shat out the assholes of dumbasses.

  14. Brad on July 23rd, 2008 3:37 pm

    this is a BLATANT joke, and that should be clear to anyone who reads the whole thing, including some of Manson’s “new lyrics”.

    That said, I agree with the guy above who mentioned Hank 3. Hank 3 is a country artist who is a LaVey Satanist/atheist, grew up on punk rock/metal/old outlaw country and played bass for Superjoint Ritual. He also wrote the lyrics “I’m here to put the dick in dixie, and the **** back in country, cuz the kind of country I’m hearing nowadays is a bunch of ****ing **** to me”…..and you listen to the guitar style in his songs, none of this modern “pop-country” sounds anything like it…….classic. Basically, what Marilyn is to rock, Hank 3 is to country.

    I like stuff like Johnny Cash and Hank 3. Or southern rock like ZZ Top.

    Not all “country” is as much of a pussified tool as the Alan Jacksons and Kenny Chesneys you see everywhere.

    If Manson did something with Hank 3, it would be ****ing awesome.

Got something to say?
