YouTube’s Take On Columbine Is Predictable Yet Disturbing

Mon Apr 20 2009 by Mike Barthel

Today is the 10th anniversary of the Columbine shootings. I was curious to see if there were any tribute-style YouTube clips about the event, since it did take place before the advent of widespread online video. Surprisingly, there are quite a few; more surprisingly, most are not altogether different from the graduation montages I looked at a little while back. Both are sort of sad, wistful, and nostalgic, and accompanied by very similar tunes–but instead of fun in the sun, you get pictures of horror and loss and death. But then they take an odd turn. Let’s take a look. More »

Pop Culture Is Never Gonna Give The Rickroll Up

Mon Dec 1 2008 by Maura

A few news items that you might have missed while sleeping off your cranberry-sauce-and-stuffing coma:

• Ne-Yo is going to bring his grown sexiness to the next Marilyn Manson album. [Hollywood Insider]
• There’s a Grammy Museum opening! It’ll be like a Hard Rock Cafe, except more self-important and with fewer franchises. [Variety]
• The latest ’90s band to have reunion rumors swirl around it: Faith No More. Don’t mess with my heart, you guys. [Blabbermotuh]
• And finally, lots of American breakfast tables were no doubt filled with confusing conversations about “this Internet thing” as Rick Astley came out to lipsync “Never Gonna Give You Up” during the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, much to the delight of the Foster’s Home For Imaginary Friends cast.

Marilyn Manson Breaks Up All Hopes Of A Limp Bizkit Reunion

Fri Aug 15 2008 by Maura

Marilyn Manson announced last night that he’d hired a new guitar player for his band, and that man is Wes Borland, late of Limp Bizkit and Black Light Burns. And from the way Manson referred to Borland’s previous musical exploits in the announcement, I wouldn’t expect Fred Durst to be invited backstage to any upcoming shows: “He used to be in a really terrible band that he left because he felt that it was a destructive force in art, and he has his own band, Black Light Burns, but now he is in Marilyn Manson,” Manson told a press assemblage in Seoul. “We don’t know how permanent that is, but starting tomorrow will be the first step. So this will be the most indestructible Marilyn Manson.” It can’t even be stopped by a horde of red-baseball-cap-wearing angry dudes, or even by people who think that Manson’s schtick is pretty tired by this point!

Marilyn Manson Has Learned From Akon’s Mistakes

Mon Dec 10 2007 by jharv

When an audience member recently flung a bottle at Marilyn Manson during a gig, beaning his bassist in the process, MM took great pains not to repeat the error of the recently indicted Akon. (Who, as you may recall, dealt with a similar bottle-thrower last summer by pulling him onto the stage and then ejecting him onto the concrete, earning Akon a misdemeanor harrassment charge.) Why the caution? Because someone was filming the incident on a cell phone, of course!
