Also scattered throughout the pages are documents of such things as girlfriends, legal documents of claims made by the American Family Association about his shows that were proven to be false, and band landmarks, to the rarer, such as Manson with Anton LaVey. For example, the ribcage in the cover image (which also appears in the liner note artwork for Antichrist Superstar) is taken from Gray's Figure 115. The book incorporates illustrations from a public domain edition of Gray's Anatomy, originally drawn by Henry Vandyke Carter. It follows several members through becoming friends and musicians with the band to angry and sometimes bitter leavings, some band members detested being fired so badly that lawsuits have been filed against Manson by his own crew members.Īlong with the book are numerous pictures, some of which are familiar to long-time Manson fans, with the center pages including everything from the Slasher Girls to Manson performing " Antichrist Superstar" with a Bible in his hand. The autobiography goes in-depth into the break-ups in the band's history. It also features his journalism works, including an article about a dominatrix he interviewed for 25th Parallel.
The book includes many references to his life of drugs, sex and dysfunctional relationships which he attributes as causal to his current status quo. Its last pages are the journal of the band's touring, documenting backstage events and people's reactions. It also details his grandfather's sexual fetishes (including bestiality and sadomasochism) to the forming of Marilyn Manson and the Spooky Kids, to the recording of Antichrist Superstar. The book follows Manson's life from when he was a child, born Brian Hugh Warner, until the events of the band's controversial Dead to the World Tour. I also thought if I described the events well enough, with a lot of detail and sarcasm, then people would feel how I felt and I wouldn't have to tell them. Sometimes I thought about people's feelings but most of the time I thought that, for the sake of entertainment, brutal honesty was best I wrote it without describing how I felt, because a lot of the times I wasn't feeling anything.
