'''Brian Hugh Warner''' (stage name '''Marilyn Manson''') is the lead singer and shock artist of the band '''Marilyn Manson''' , formed in 1989. In 1993, the band signed onto to [[Nothing Records]] after correspondance with [[Trent Reznor]] became , who was impressed by their music. Reznor had a heavy hand in producing the records 1994 record ''Portrait of an American Family'' and many members of [[Nine Inch Nails]] performed and co-wrote songs featured on 1996's ''Antichrist Superstar''. Trent Reznor also produced eps, single tracks, and remixes in between these records.

Reznor and Manson apparently had a fight are rumored to fought over control and musical differencesprior to the recording of [[Mechanical Animals]], causing a rift in their friendship and a series of media feuds, but resolved it prior to the [[Starfuckers, Inc. (song)|Starfuckers, Inc.]] video, in which Manson appeared in and directed. The two performed the song live in New York City at Madison Square Garden in 2000. However, recent interviews have indicated that the two are up to old tricks again.

:'''Manson:''' ''I’d I'd like to say yes, but there’s a legal matter pending that I can’t say too much about. It’s very hard to believe this, but '''representatives from Nothing Records have indicated that they are not able to find, or have lost the master recordings to my first three records'''. It’s It's not something that you would ever let happen in musical history. I would imagine something like that could only be intentional. If not intentional, it would have to be done only through complete disregard. Now that Nothing Records doesn’t doesn't exist, I think there’s only one of two people responsible for that. Out of those two people, there’s there's only one that really has an opinion of me that is voiced very often.''

:''I’m I'm often painted as the bad guy in a relationship – in most relationships. I will not deny that I am an asshole at times. I will not deny that I’m I'm probably completely insane, and most people will agree with that. I don’t don't betray people that I care about. I don’t don't forsake people that are important to me and I would do anything for someone I love. I don’t don't know what kind of people do things like that. It’s It's erasing history. It’s It's erasing your life’s life's work. It’s It's killing a part of you. I don’t know how to react to it. I’d I'd just like to wait and see what happens because it may be just a terrible mistake. I would hope so for those involved.'' [http://www.mansonfr.com/articles-30.html]

This is a jab at Manson, who did a straight-forward cover of Depeche Mode's "Personal Jesus" by mainly adding guitar distortion. "Personal Jesus" has been covered by numerous other artists including [[Johnny Cash]]. ==Discography=======Studio Albums=====''Portrait of an American Family'' (1994)<br>''Antichrist Superstar'' (1996)<br>''Mechanical Animals'' (1998)<br>''The Last Our On Earth'' live (1999)<br>''Holy Wood'' (2000)<br>''The Golden Age of Grotesque'' (2003)<br>''Lest We Forget: The Best Of'' (2004)<br>''Eat Me, Drink Me'' (2007)<br><br> =====EPs=====''Smells Like Children'' (1995)<br>''Remix and Repent'' (1997)<br>
