Born Villain cover art revealed and my order is in
I love a new album – especially that it now means something new to listen to from Marilyn Manson, and from the single No Reflection, I’m already intrigued, but I also love that I know have to look at my collection and figure how I am going to fit the new album and all the permutations of it I purchase, on display.
So far I have ordered:
Born Villain CD UK
Born Villain Vinyl UK
Born Villain CD with HMV Exclusive CD art-cards and am hoping I have a good chance of getting my hands on the No Reflection limited white label singles.
And that’s just the beginning I assume.
Listen to No Reflection by Marilyn Manson and Born Villian release date – Listen here
Cooking Vinyl posted a You Tube version of the forthcoming new single from Marilyn Manson entitled “No Reflection”. The track which was premiered on KROQ radio station yesterday (7 March 2012) will be released March 20th. At the moment the indications are it will be a digital release but hope to hear more sooner.
KROQ also announced that the release date for the album Born Villian, will be May 1st – which to British Manson fans will mean 1/5 0r 15.
Enjoy
Thank you to Provider Module on the news regarding release date: KROQ Announce Born Villain Release Date as May 1
Supporting anti-SOPA Blackout day
On the Tuesday 24th January 2012, the US Senate will vote on the internet censorship bill.
Whilst it is an American law, it has far reaching repurcusions for the web as a whole.
There are many companies against SOPA, such as Google, Reddit, Facebook, Twitter, Wikipedia, and today I am lending my weight to the argument by taking my site down for the day.
If you think SOPA doesn’t affect you, please think again. Watch the video below
Thank you
Happy birthday to Marilyn Manson
It is 1.5 – that elusive and special 15 that is January 5, and the birthday of the original Born Villain himself, Marilyn Manson.
Marilyn Manson has been a great inspiration on the work I do and the paths I have chosen.
Have a wonderful day sir whatever you do, whomever you celebrate it with and on behalf of many fans here’s to what is looking to be a very exciting 2012 – some may say even apocolyptic – well I am sure some extremist group will use the fact that Manson is putting out a new record to show as definitive proof that it is the end of the world as we know it.

New Additions and more news
Well it’s been a pretty busy few months for me. As you may remember I have put the build of Emmageddon on hold BUT have purchased the hosting and domain again as I do want to finish this.
The things that have kept me busy for the past couple of months have been very much worth it and are ongoing. Under my design site Nineteen76-Designs, I have been working with the legend that is Rob Zombie on his new official site. Although final sign off is delayed as Rob is currently filming The Lords of Salem, we have a holding page which delivers news and keeps updated until we are ready to fully launch. Also I have designed two single covers for John 5 – Beat It and Noche Acosador. And there’s been a lot more too.
BUT I am still collecting so wanted to let you know.

MarilynManson.com initiates major update
After months of teasing, Marilyn Manson unveiled a new look to his official website MarilynManson.com. Taking a new direction away from the dark websites of old, the new site is a stark white and utilizes his new MM symbol that has been seen as a new chest tattoo over recent months.
The update includes new images to the gallery, including previously unseen images of Evan Rachel Wood and Dita Von Teese. Other photography subjects include Twiggy, Esme Bianco and Lindsay Usich (Source for info: PM).
The blog has been changed to “Journal” which is more reminiscent of his earlier “Journal” from 2002/04. Under the “Music” tab, there are a number of unseen images also of MM, which include him standing with a mouth stitched. These images although not officially related to a new era are still new and are a possible teaser to the next album as they are under the category “Music Shoots”. (more…)

Mansoncollectors.com selling collection
Many of us in the Marilyn Manson fan community and fellow Manson collectors, will be well aware of one of the most comprehensive databases that exist online: mansoncollectors.com.
Owned by a French collector who also owns the Deadstar.net fan site, mansoncollectors.com has been an invaluable resource to many collectors who use his site as the place to compare and contrast items from Marilyn Manson’s discography, and is probably one of the most comprehensive guides out there, detailing different versions, artwork, bootlegs etc.
Part of this extensive collection is now on eBay. Now I don’t normally advertise other people’s auctions, but this is a collection from which you will be guaranteed to bag a real memorable piece from Manson’s discography. You can find out more about what items are for sale by clicking on the eBay profile wish3212
New teaser for the official John 5 Fanclub
So as I have mentioned this week, Emmageddon is on a slight delay while I work on getting the new John 5 Disciples Fanclub site finished.
A stand alone site which will be exclusively for Fanclub members will be launched in June 2011.
Another upload on Emmageddon will go up next weekend (14/15 May) but there will be a delay with all inventory on board.

My interviews archived at Provider Module
My friends at Provider Module have been working very hard to build one of the most comprehensive databases for Marilyn Manson articles, interviews etc including related interviews with contributors, friends and past members.
Recently added to their interview archive are two of my past interviews. One is with the late Gidget Gein, conducted in 2005. Entitled Evolution, it caught up with Gidget as he started out on his un pop art career, and not long after he was reunited with Marilyn Manson for the [s]AINT video.
My second archived interview is with Dita Von Teese. This article, entitled “Simply Dita” was conducted in late 2004, and came not long after she and Manson had announced their engagement. The interview earned good critical reviews and has been seen as one that changed the direction of interviews towards Dita. The interview also saw Dita give me full member access to her website for a while and was personally posted by her on her pillow talk forum. Dita also granted me a second interview a number of years later, something she promised at the time that if I ever wanted to, the option was there to do so. That interview appeared in the Birmingham Mail (UK) What’s On magazine (now out of print).
The two interviews were originally hosted at a Geocities site I owned – my first venture into my own web site. Anyway, I am very proud of these and it is very good to see them archived on Provider Module for others to read. Please take the time to have a read and let me know what you think.
Many thanks to PM again.

Sorry about the lack of updates
Hello all
Well just a little update for anyone interested. Despite having some time off work where I hoped to get at least two big updates done to the site, I have come down with a cold, which is just bloody typical. So it has caused a delay on this and the new John 5 Fan club site I have been working on. So I am about a week behind in getting the site updated. Sorry for anyone who has been coming to the site in hopes of an update.
Normal services will resume soon. My next uploads will include Holywood to High End of Low so that all the albums/music are completed and I can start photographing the additional elements of my collection, which include such delights as Ginger Fish’s jacket from the Disposable Teens video, a one off prototype of John 5′s electro acoustic signature guitar, a Tour jacket and much much more.
Ginger Fish confirms he is with Rob Zombie
It’s hard keeping a secret but I’m privileged in my job so have been sitting on this for a while! Former Marilyn Manson drummer Ginger Fish and Rob Zombie guitarist John 5 have both confirmed that the news of Ginger’s arrival in Rob Zombie is now for the public domain.
Hi Emma , yes it was announced by Rob himself , yesterday at the Revolver Awards , so it’s ok to say ‘yes he joined now’ . Later , Me (Msg confirmation from GF)
Ginger appeared with the band at last nights (April 20) Golden Gods award in LA. Ginger filled in earlier this year for a series of warm up dates and following his departure from Marilyn Manson has been working with the band now Slipknot drummer Joey Jordison has returned to his major drummer duties.
Personally I can not wait to see Ginger again with his former band mate and friend John 5 and see him rock with one of the most energetic bands around.
Provider Module interviews Fred Sablan
Thought I would do a little shout out for my friends at Provider Module who have scored the first interview with new Marilyn Manson band member Fred Sablan.
Sablan who also works with fellow band mate Twiggy on the Californian “desert rock” band, Goon Moon, talks about his past punk days, how he began working with Twiggy, how he became a member of Marilyn Manson and offers little glimpses into the new era.
