]]>(I jotted some thoughts about that in a mefi thread earlier this year.)
I understand what you’re saying about him acting like a cliché rock star, but everything the guy does is a bit tongue-in-cheek. So if he’s being over-the-top in his personal life, he’s aware of the irony, but made a choice to go with it anyway. I personally don’t mind… but to each his own.
]]>He is now everything he wasn’t before.
]]>There’s no denying that Marilyn Manson’s career owes a lot to Trent Reznor’s direct involvement. But they have their differences (in multiple senses of that phrase
)
MM’s artistry focuses on persona, aesthetics etc. in a way that NIN wouldn’t ever attempt.
As for the music, Marilyn Manson is more in touch with classic rock and hard rock roots than NIN. Especially these days: MM’s “Eat Me, Drink Me” sounds completely different from NIN’s “Year Zero”.
Both currently rank among my favourites, but I like Marilyn Manson way more than Nine Inch Nails.
