29. Marilyn Manson: ‘Holy Wood’ (2000) - The third instalment of Marilyn Manson’s concept album trilogy featured a rotting Christ-like figure from the torso-up. The corpse’s mutilated face showed Manson with his teeth bared in a typical display of gothic headline-grabbing. The album was especially controversial as it was released in the wake of the Columbine High School massacre, of which Manson had been lazily and wrongly blamed by sections of the press and religious groups for inciting hatred in offenders Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold prior to their horrific crime.

- Let's not forget that we all have a choice as to whether or not we wish to allow ourselves to become offended by any of this stuff. "A man's wisdom gives him patience; it is to his glory to overlook an offense" (Proverbs 18:11). Think about it...

- This is just typical of Rammstein, pushing the boundaries and we love it!
Music has become too safe lately. We need characters like Rammstein out there.
- I liked Rammstein a lot, but they are kinda going down the drain. To be clean is cooler and rarer, today.
The cannibalistic stuff would fit better in communist china, vietnam, cuba, venezuela, south-africa and all those junk countries...
- Are you seriously comfortable calling South Africa a junk country? Pray do tell what makes you feel you are authorised to make such ridiculous and untrue allegations? Cannabalistic stuff fitting in better here??? Why do you say this? Do you think we are a bunch of barbarians or something?
