🤘Marilyn Manson - One Assassination Under God - Chapter 1 - ALBUM REVIEW

[@Jesuscrisis]

I actually really enjoy this new Manson album also can't wait for part 2

[@VampireJack10]

Best thing he's done in MANY years.

[@haacon7464]

Mansons new album is a masterpiece. Must listen to it for some time. Looking forward to the next chapter.

[@jglumi]

I´m a Manson fan since 1999, in the era of Mechanical Animals. After all the s**t he received the last years and the media boycott against this album, it's great that you upload this content. Thank you very much, it is appreciated. 🤘

[@bloodstonefaery]

I love all his albums!! He has something for every mood so my favorites rotate frequently 😅 but they're all just so different, while still managing to maintain that style of his. This one in particular brought tears to my eyes, and that might be because I've been following his situation the last few years, but it yanked so many emotions out of me! Ultimately, it gets a 10/10 from me 🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@Brandon1984mn]

Solid album! Surprisingly strong indeed.

[@sebastian_reu9220]

This album is a masterpiece ♥️🥰

[@tleeg74]

"Raise your Red Flag" is orobably one of my top 10 M.M. songs ever. Great album.

[@mikemorrison4084]

I absolutely love Dearh Is Not A Costume.

[@theonlyone992]

It's got this sort of melancholic funeral vibe to it that's hard to shake.

[@spinazzola5373]

This album rocks .

[@kimlayman4742]

Wow! Really shocked this didn't get Two Toe Tags. Every song is amazing. His vocals and lyrics are so strong. I absolutely love this album,and like I said on the last video,this is my Album of the Year. The videos he put with this just intensifies the emotion he puts into every note. This album is a 10 for me.

[@noperception5073]

13:20 Disagree about Nod if you understand being a better opener. It would have made it a rock album, but where One Assassination Under God starts is perfect perfect building, it's the opening titles to the movie, and lays out the story of the start of the movie. It's his best opener I'd say. Irresponsible Hate Anthem is the perfect industrial/metal album opener, Great Big White World is the perfect glam rock opener, but One Assassination Under God is the perfect movie opener, which has this sit above the rest. It goes beyond being an album, it because a film. I find the album more powerful than holywood, and stands next to mechanical animals

[@fatherfreedom1946]

This album is a grower. Same thing is happening to me where the more I listen, the better the songs get - but not just a little bit but almost exponentially. It's weird

[@booitsjohnny]

I love this album because he sounds absolutely rejuvenated. I enjoy tracks from every album after Holy Wood, but I don't think any album was awesome until now. I can thoroughly enjoy this album from start to finish and it's been a while since I've been able to do that with one of his albums.

[@xsanchezz]

Death is not a costume is an AWESOME SONG....The last minute of this song is an awesome banger.........

[@NarcissusNarc0sis13]

I agree with a lot of the points you both made. It really is an amazing album and I'm so happy he's back.

[@werewolfofmandalore]

We Are Chaos artistically marked a growth for Manson as a person and his music reflected it. Upon release i didn't get the album at all, but after a week with it i can't get enough of it. Theres for sure callbacks to earlier works is for sure intentional. I got shades of Born Villain and highlights of the big three.

[@Haddley333]

This is the first manson album in a while where when I play the first song I end up listening to the entire album. I sincerely appreciate Mansons recent albums where a few songs really hit, but couldn't listen to the entire album from start to finish.

[@SSS1984MMM]

Great discussion! I too feel that the tracklist may unfold in reverse order. Or at the least, "Sacrifice Of The Mass" taking place right before "One Assassination Under God". The latter has him declaring that he's "NOT A SACRIFICE" toward the end. If we follow this order then "Raise The Red Flag" is the true closing number & it hints toward a more kickass second chapter. But if we follow the tracklist in reverse idea then the title track is the ending of the first chapter. If that's the case then I expect chapter two to open with a Reprise or a second part to the title track.

[@PavelGaborik]

It's good, could've used another heavy track or two to balance it out in my opinion. Cutting Front Toward Enemy was a mistake, that song is a total banger. That said, I still quite enjoyed the album, it's good stuff overall.

[@VampireJack10]

Don't worry - it will be on the special edition.....

[@denouncedmusic]

I think this would have been a 10/10 for me if he had ditched meet me in purgatory and added front toward enemy

[@JoeHartman80]

There isn’t an album of Manson’s I dislike. Some better than others. Since Holy wood, golden age and heaven upside down are still my faves. One Assassination is still a very solid album and gives me tons of promise for this band with this lineup.

[@ChozoBrain]

9/10 for me, needed more songs.

[@randomyoutubeperson3577]

I wonder if this was on purpose, to end at 9. It's a very odd way to end an album. But he also had Front Toward Enemy, a song not on this album, on a limited release in August.

[@ChozoBrain]

@@randomyoutubeperson3577 Indeed, I enjoyed Front Toward Enemy, though I do not think it would have suited the record, especially with lyrics in Sacrifice of the Mass.

[@Madmax-kr1li]

This is a masterpiece it reminds me of mechanical animals. And how he did in his first three albums were godlike 10/10 it my number two of my top ten my number one was Judas Priest invincible shield my number three was Nightwish Yesterwynde mason out did himself again can’t wait to see if he does chapter 2

[@sean2259]

For me this album was a solid 7 or 8. At first I would of preferred heavier songs like raise the red flag but as I listened to it more I came to appreciate the album more. Regardless of what everyone thinks about the album though I think we can all agree we are glad he was able to overcome what has happened and come out with an album that says I'm back

[@skidrow1800]

This is honestly his best album since Pale Emperor… I feel like the lead single & the title track (OAUG) & Raise The Red Flag are 3 of the best Manson songs in a while …. Don’t understand ppl criticizing the length or it feeling short… it literally says PART 1 in the title of the album. It’s meant to be the first half of the album. The second half will probably be 8-10 tracks as well. This when it’s done, it will be a complete 18 track album or whatever

[@TwoToeTags]

@@skidrow1800 It's 43 minutes. It's average length by today's standards.

[@alejandromolina2435]

For me by now this album still didnt grow on me, maybe with more listens BUT i am very happy a lot of people like it, Manson is one of my fav musicians and wish him all the very best! also totally agree that Manson have a lot of great albums besides the Tryptich like The Golden Age Of Grotesque, Born Villain, The Pale Emperor and Heaven Upside Down...

[@jglumi]

At least that's an honest opinion! It happens to me with the last album by the cure.

[@alejandromolina2435]

@@jglumi Thanks bro! yeah sometimes takes time to really click with an album, i will listen ti The Cure´s last album i forget about it

[@Rafael-kr6zv]

@@alejandromolina2435 I agree, people are too fast to jump to conclusions, stating this is the bet since Holy Wood. A lot of people said the same about WAC, and visiting it nowadays, it's definitely their weakest imo. Still need more listens, but it's enjoyable for sure

[@alejandromolina2435]

@@Rafael-kr6zv totally agree with you, the album is good in a way but he has better albums than this aside from the tryptich....

[@Ieoshua]

Every song is strong af and just can’t wait for chapter 2, also don’t forget the Mr Superstar reference on the ending of Sacrilegious. Indeed NOW we can actually say it’s his best work sience Holy Wood (In The Shadow Of The Valley Of Death)

[@prescribeddrone]

I love how goth rock/post punk this album is, besides the few more aggressive songs. I love every album, never been let down by any of them, been a fan since like 1998/1999 and saw Manson 17 times and yeah,this is the best album since Holy Wood- but Pale Emperor was the last album that was best since Holy Wood before this one. We Are Chaos was very good, but I get what you mean by "tired". I just dig all the piano and there's a few really awesome songs on there. Did you guys hear Front Toward Enemy? The B side from Raise the Red Flag single? It's like Little Horn's cousin.

[@theonlyone992]

I haven't bought a Manson album since Holy Wood. I bought the Target exclusive CD along with their vinyl. Planning on getting the longbox for the wife for Christmas. According to statsfm, I have 401 minutes with this album, 9 total fullalbum playthrus and my top tracks are Death is Not a Costume, the title track and As Sick As The Secrets Within. I think Sacrilegious is kinda corny but the rest of the album is all killer, no filler. A true return to form.

[@theonlyone992]

My top 3 for the year has been this, The Nothing That Is by Fit For An Autopsy and Opeth's Last Will and Testament.

[@vampiricon]

8 / 10. If this album had been released right after Holy Wood... the triptych could have easily become a quadriptych. I've been listening to the band since '98 and OUAG is at least at the level of The Golden Age if not more.

[@LRDtreeofficial]

To be honest, I feel like sacrifice of the mass is closest to fundamentally loathsome sonically and lyrically

[@sliperio2]

[@Mercury_Shadow]

It sucks. I was a fan since 94 but lost all respect for Manson with everything he did after WAC and now I hate the man.

[@TwoToeTags]

@@Mercury_Shadow 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@trollinginparadise1927]

Worst album of 2024!

[@Cristiann-o9f]

This album makes Born Villain look like a masterpiece

[@Maciej-wc5kg]

what do u mean? OAUG is his best album since like golden age of grotesque, he sounds amazing now

[@Rafael-kr6zv]

Born Villain is great, his worst is actually WAC

[@Cristiann-o9f]

I never said that Born Villain is their worst album.Heaven Upside Down, THEOL and EMDM are their worst album, this new album is just a good album and it could have been better
