...to this… MM – Lest We forget This is quite a hard rock album; I got the special edition version and cost me £11.99 for 19 tracks. It is also a parental advisory album – meaning it has explicit language. It has too! The style of the majority of the music is aimed at the Skater fraternity, but for me this does not detract anything. It also has 3 (in my humble opinion) very good covers from the 80’s & 90’s these being: - Depeche Mode’s “personal ...
...made of this). I loved all three versions of these, some of my fave records- so I’m possibly not all that cool – but Teej doesn’t know that! ;op On this album the group consists of: - Marilyn Manson – Vocals Tim Skold – Guitars & Bass Madonna Wayne Gacy – Keyboards (and possibly bullied at school!) Ginger Fish - Drums “So, what are these 19 tracks?” I hear you ask. No? I’m sure I heard you ask! 1. the love song slow to start, but with a heavy ... Read review

Advantages: Glammed up, soul gone, gothed out
Disadvantages: Songs are like a dead atheist

...What we get with Lest We Forget is a fixation with British synth-pop and an obsession with upsetting Middle America, admirable, but not something to build a career on. The highlights are the cover versions (never a good sign) with Tainted Love, Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This), and the recent Satanised glam of Personal Jesus.

Advantages: Fantastic Album
Disadvantages: None

I have liked Marilyn Manson for a long time but there have always only ever been half (at most) the songs on each album that I like. This album however does not contain a single track that I dont like.

If you have never listened to Marilyn Manson before but are interested ...
...include some of the more disturbing tracks he has done) then I would recommend that you buy this album. If you are someone who owns all of his albums already then this is probably not going to be one you will buy as there is nothing new on this album. ... Read review
