Marilyn Manson

American rock singer (born Brian Hugh Warner, 1969). The eponymous band has had multiple lineups built around Manson; longest-tenured collaborator was Twiggy Ramirez (Jeordie White, 1993-2002, 2008-2017). Distinguished by deliberately provocative theatrical performances, lyrics, and album artwork.

Eleven studio albums starting with Portrait of an American Family (1994). Commercial peak: Antichrist Superstar (1996), Mechanical Animals (1998), and Holy Wood (In the Shadow of the Valley of Death) (2000) — the band's "Triptych." Manson has been involved in significant legal controversy since 2021, with multiple sexual assault and abuse allegations against him.
