If I were a fat goth girl and it were 1996, I'd be cutting myself in mourning.

Only about 10 years too late to be remotely relevant or interesting.

But did she like the drugs, or did the drugs like her?

Congratulations, you've caught the dragon.

However, Los Angeles County Coroners Office have said they will not issue any further information until the musician's family have been informed of the situation.

Wait, what? I thought they notified the family before releasing it to the press.

Manson seen whistling past the grave yard.

Where's the "Who gives a fark" tag?

Naman: But did she like the drugs, or did the drugs like her?

Question should be 'But did he like the drugs, or did the drugs like him?'

It was a boy overdose.

Won't happen. They only protest innocent victims, heroes and soldiers (not all of whom qualify as heroes). They do NOT protest funerals of people whose popularity might actually support their argument.

Odd that.

I am shocked.

When you get kicked out of Marilyn Manson for being a drug-addled fark-up, that's when you know you've got a problem.

Okay, I've never heard that one. That name is full of win.

Too bad the person who owns it is full of dead.

He played bass on Portrait of an American Family, which is probably my favorite Manson album. The album was weird and quirky without being too overwrought like the later Manson albums.

radioman_: Ed Gein fires up the grill.

My thought, also. Since I'd never heard of anyone except the goofy-looking fruitcake who fronted the band, I looked it up on Wiki
The name of each band member was originally created by combining the first name of an iconic female sex symbol and the last name of an iconic mass murderer or serial killer, doing so to demonstrate the odd dichotomy of society.

Wow, that's really deep, man. I mean, like, wow.

This sucks

he got his act together for quite some time, and he was recently knee-deep in special projects of his. I know this from him being on my myspace friends list and all the positive recent bulletins he has sent out within the past few months.


While I like Manson and look past certain heavy flaws he contains as a person, the other members of his band over the years were usually very nice and even sensitive guys that were often bullied or abused in some form by Manson.


It's too easy to mock a junkie for some people, but they don't fully understand certain things.

Yeah, Daisy and Gein were a pretty good combo - too bad both were jettisoned from the band so early on. At least there's Portrait and a little bit of Daisy's stuff on Antichrist Superstar.

Oh no some druggie OD'd. I'm like, so sad. Excuse me while I cry a solitary tear drop in anguish.

Really? "Suspected"? Really?!

I realize this would be a great opportunity to make a snarky comment about Marilyn Manson, but truly, this is too bad.

I hope the best for the family.

Why let that stop you?

Great band, they come to Seattle all the time. Have you checked out Zimmer's Hole?

In my youth, I learned the Truth, PURE METAL was the only way
Glam rock can suck a c*ck, it's strictly for the closet gay
Burning bright, my wheels ignite, burning to the other side
Exodus was farking right, ALL THE POSEURS MUST DIE!

When you were Shouting at the Devil
We were In League...

Drink and fight, every night, take your women away
Embrace the dark and leave your mark, you know there's hell to pay
We live proud and love it loud, you wish you were one of the 'Crue'
Worship your transvestite gods, my sword will run you through!

When you were Shouting at the Devil
We were In League...
When you were Shouting at the Devil
We were In League...

With Satan
