Marilyn Manson’s new Music Video, Directed by Shia LeOH MY GOD WHAT THE F@CK WAS THAT?! (Super-Duper NSFW!)

Marilyn Manson - Born Villain (Official Video)
Embedded after the jump

Seriously? It’s not that I have anything against pornography or violence – in fact, there isn’t a scenario I can imagine that wouldn’t be improved by the addition of boobs and a Colt snub-nose – but is there anyone else out there who thinks that the big M may have eventually taken his celluloid fetishes a little too far?

Now, don’t get me wrong, I’ve been a Manson fan since I was old enough to resent my parents and pen emotive poetry. His unique combination of industrial metal, swing, and general fuckedupness made him a legend, and the fact that he wore heavy makeup, multi-coloured contact lenses, all the PVC that Germany has ever produced, and still managed to bang Rose McGowan made him a hero to pretty much every single Goth boy (and girl) on the planet.

After all, Goth’s shouldn’t be able to do all those things.

Being alternative is supposed to be hard

But is anyone else beginning to think that maybe, just maybe, ‘ol Manson is tired of people not talking about him anymore? I remember when a day didn’t go past without a new Manson rumour surfacing. There were the drinking blood stories (which, lets face it, were probably true), the giving-a-young-boy-head-on-stage rumour (which was not) and the most famous removed-two-of-his-ribs-to-allow-for-the-odd-bit-of-autophelatio nugget of tabloid gold.

Which, in all honesty, he still hasn’t denied…

But the Manson craze has past by and, in this humble blogger’s opinion, the Narcissist king of the Spooky Kids is jonesing for some attention.

On the plus side, the song is rad, which is a pleasant change from the abominable smattering of twink ditties that was Eat Me, Drink Me.

Oh, and lets not gloss over the fact that this six and a half minute Lynchian nightmare was directed by non other than Transformers star Shia LeBeouf!

“You know what this clip needs? More vaginal eyeballs.”

Again, I can’t stress too much how NOT safe for work this video is.
