{{expand}}[[Image:Marilynmanson.jpg|thumb|Marilyn Manson]]'''Marilyn Manson''' is a shock-rock band formed in 1989 by [[Marilyn Manson (musician)|Brian Warner]], originally called Marilyn Manson and the And The Spooky Kids. In 1993 the band signed to [[Nothing Records]] after impressing [[Trent Reznor]] with their music. Reznor played a major role in producing the band's 1994 record, ''[[Portrait of an American Family]]'', and many members of [[Nine Inch Nails]] co-wrote and performed on the next album ''[[Antichrist Superstar]]''. Reznor also produced EPs, single tracks and remixes in between these records. The band also toured as a support band for NIN on the [[Self Destruct Tour|Self Destruct]] and [[Further Down The Spiral Tour|Further Down The Spiral]] tours, and as part of a Nothing Records showcase for the [[Nights Of Nothing Tour]].
* Band members Vrenna and [[Jeordie White]] (as Twiggy Ramirez) also previously played for NIN. Also, [[Charlie Clouser]] has collaborated with Manson, remixing several of their earlier tracks.
* The band contributed tracks "Apple of Sodom" and "I Put a Spell on You" to the ''[[Lost Highway Soundtrack]]'' along with NIN. Manson and Ramirez also appear briefly in the film.
* During live performances around 1994, Reznor could often be seen wearing a Marilyn Manson Tt-Shirt shirt parodying The Salvation Army logo with the text, The Satanic Army.* Marilyn Manson was supposed to compose the score to the video game ''American McGee's Alice''. This was cancelled for unknown reasons, after which [[Chris Vrenna]] was handed the job.
