Herald Interview Marilyn Manson - Twiggy is back

Herald: So, Twiggy’s back?

Marilyn Manson: He’s officially back. This is just the beginning. I think we’re going to start writing right away, with the attitude we’ve made music with in the past, without any care at all. For Marilyn Manson, it seems to have become about the death toll, because we get blamed for every act of violence. They don’t have a Grammy award for school shootings, but I guess I would get one if they did, whether I asked for one or not. It’s good to have my partner back, who was the only person able to stare all of that in the face and not be afraid of it. He and I are like brothers in that when we’re together, we’re not afraid of anything. I think that’s how we’ve made our best music.

Herald: How different a person are you without the makeup on - like when you go to the supermarket?

Herald: What’s the secret to freaking people out?

Herald: Is that a dietary thing?

Marilyn Manson: I’ve made my body a place where germs are afraid to live. That’s my diet.
