Marilyn Manson's The Beautiful People will have a distinctly Teutonic flavour at the Echo Awards show this year. Rammstein will share the stage with the iconic American to perform his 1996 track.
I mean "irrelevant" as in his subject matter and musical style. He used to have a powerful message, and his music conveyed that message with power. I was a fan of his back then. But since then he's lost his personal as well as his artistic integrity. He might still be making "music", but to call him active would be way off.
But hey, I'm just some random guy from the internet. I love your site and I love the stuff you post about Rammstein. I hope I haven't offended you by stating my opinion. And if I have, I will be sure to tone it down in the future.
I'm not a fan of his music myself, though I am a fan of his intellect and rationale, and you haven't offended me in the least. That said, multiple posts to my Facebook page and here with the same thing against a same artist, plus a wish he had died of an overdose years ago? That's hate. If you take that outside and leave it there before you step into my space I will be a much happier person.
Too bad Manson's been irrelevant for over a decade now...
ReplyDeleteGood thing so many of us don't consider 'irrelevant' valid when discussing an active artist.
