Brad & Lex
PO BOX 4393
Clearwater, FL 33758
I like Lex's personality a lot, she's so outgoing for the metal and the wild stuff. Also the eyes look fantastic Lex!
I agree, Lex is awesome!! Brad you're awesome too buddy! 🙃
the eyes are a tribute to Marilyn Manson
@@steelyspielbergo thats the first thing i was thinking 2
The eyes are awesome!! I kept looking, wondering had I never noticed her eye color before?
Yeah,Lex is adorable....Brad seems a cool dude too.
I've never been a huge fan of Manson, but you can't deny how catchy and insane the main riff is.
He went too Hollywood after this album. I think the Portrait album is a masterpiece, this one was good then he went all baby eater LA.
@@Zombied77 lunchbox and get ur Gunn showed so much potential... and fame turned him into the weirdo we see today 🙁
I know I'm in the minority here, but I loved his dark country album.
Marilyn Manson is smart. Everything he does is planned. It's not by accident. I've seen him on Bill Mahr and interviewed by Bill O'Reilly. He was probably the smartest man in the room in both cases.
facts
"OMG, isn't Lady Gaga so weird?"
Me: "I mean... I grew up with Marilyn Manson and White Zombie..."
Oh Jesus, when people said that gaga was weird because she walked around in a meat dress, I was like, has she ever done an award show wearing just their underwear and made up to look like a burn victim in front of a cross made out of televisions?
I feel the same when people said “Marilyn Manson” was creepy and dark. I was like, “Yeah I grew up with skinny Puppy, Sisters of Mercy and Ministry”
@@willynilly2545 every generation has their 'weirdo celebrities' and it just seems they attempt to push things further each time. Like sn arms race of weird. One day they will come full circle and weird will end up being shirt and tie.
@@willynilly2545 thank you! Not to mention Kraftwerk, Throbbing Gristle, Lords of Acid, My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult, hell, even Alice Cooper and Iggy Pop.
Marilyn Manson did a lot when they performed in the early to mid nineties that was indeed actually shock value (breaking bottles and cutting themselves, the bass player and lead singer groping each other and making out, Manson wearing an exaggerated enormous and long, ahem, steeple). But it was mostly an amalgamation of things other bands already did.
@@JennRighter Right. With Marily Manson and even to some extent Nine Inch Nails, it always seemed someewhat performative. Like it was mostly a character they were playing rather than expressing their lives through music.
Their covers of "Sweet Dreams" and "Tainted Love" are fantastic.
Yes!!
“Personal Jesus”, too
Cry little sister, this is halloween, working class hero, strawberry fields, gods gonna cut you down, I put a spell on you and down in the park! All amazing covers
Get My Rocks Off is my favourite of their covers
Yesss. I was just thinking that too.
This song never gets old. Absolute classic.
Been listening to it since it came out and it’s still one of my favourite running/workout songs
I loved the look on Brad's face the whole song!
Lex is definitely a heavy metal animal!
True
Lex operates on such a great level with these songs. I never tire of watching her get into the music, and her ability to intellectually explore them with relevant observations.
I’m so impressed by how well she nails it when she explains her interpretation. I’ve watched several videos and she is always spot on. I’ve heard these songs 1000 times and she nails it. The sadistic side of perfectionism…nailed it.
Honestly, only coming across this channel tonight, her enthusiasm and interpretations are easily my fave part of this, Lex seems to be vibing so much more with everything than Brad does, I feel like Brad is often too guarded and closed off in comparison, I wish he'd be more reactive and honest in his feelings tbh
Manson is a very highly intelligent man. This album is his finest hour. Antichrist Superstar is a masterpiece from top to bottom
He’s intelligent in the way a 13 year old is intelligent who is angry because his mom makes him go to church on Sundays and he thinks he’s too smart for all that nonsense but he doesn’t have the mind power to even know why he’s angry. Been there done that, grew out of it.
@@RoadHammer1972 yeah, it's like all the same nonsense (respect) thrown at John Lennon. A 💩 of a dad. Hypocrite. "Imagine" being rich and complaining about possessions.
Yeah you obviously know nothing of what he’s about and what his music and lyrics stand for throughout his career. The guy is a downright genius.
@@stevekrasz1 idolize much?
@@stevekrasz1 lmao. I know all about Manson and what he’s about. Ask the women he’s accused of raping what he’s about? Big shocker that a devil worshipper would rape women right?
There's so much of Manson besides Beautiful people and sweet dreams.
Personal favorites;
- Lunchbox
- Tourniquet
- Mister superstar
- Coma white
Lunchbox is one of my all time favorite Manson songs.
Ahhh yes. A fan of his earlier works. Same as myself.
Love the song Lunchbox along with Dope Hat by Manson.
Lunchbox, mOBSCENE, and The Nobodies…top to bottom my favorite MM album
starfuckers, tainted love is a great mainstream cover
You two are officially my favorite reactors. Thanks for taking the time to kick it with us.
❤️🙏🏽❤️
I love watching Lex to react and her smile is priceless. I love how Brad looks at her when she reacts and describes how it sounds. Love you guys
Its interesting that you connected Marilyn and Zombie. I went to school with this guy who was an amazing guitarist, he went on to play guitar for Manson, when he left, he became the guitarist for Zombie and still is to this day. His stage name is John 5.
John 5 is an amazing guitarist
I had drinks with Zim Zum several times when I was living in Chicago back in the 90s. High five. :)
John is supercool
John 5 is one of the best modern guitar players. He’s a legend. An absolute enigma.
John 5 is crazy good. That’s awesome man
I love lex's face when he started singing. The amazement and happiness
She already has the goth look and she definitely has the ear for it
she was smitten. lol
I appreciate Brad for putting up with our stuff. I also kinda want a Lex for myself
I love watching lex’s excitement for the metal, she’s one of us.
People always react to the edited version. In the original version he doesn’t say haters. In the live version he did for an MTV award show he opens up literally calling out Christianity, so you’re “holier than thou” comment is correct.
"Industrial Metal" is one of subgenres of metal that Marilyn Manson's music falls into🤘
They need to do Ministry czcams.com/video/4c3BCWx5Rpg/video.html
Industrial Metal is a sub-genre of Industrial, not of Metal. ; )
They were a hard rock band.
I don’t think much of anything Manson ever did was industrial…sure, they used some samples. But that’s the ONLY correlation to industrial music I can even think of.
I love the contrast of their views when reacting to a song, Brad is very literal and Lex is very creative, both beautiful views and that difference is very quickly making this my favorite reaction channel. Its usually some version of...
Brad "Just taking a break from doing some accounting, spreadsheets relax me lets listen to a song"
Lex "Woooo, just finished my 10th double espresso, lets gooooo, pew pew pew(pointing fingers making gun sound)"
Brad "that was different, but music is math each verse is a column of numbers that should equal 12 but that one verse totaled 13 and I'm not sure I understand"
Lex "I think the columns total a color and now we all know what blue tastes like, you know what I'm saying"
Bard "No I don't"
Lex " ok, ok how about your wearing leather moccasins that sound like Billy Gibbons, but instead of Billy Gibbons you're some small town kid walking through Vegas at 4am and just saw your 1st dead hooker, you know what i mean?"
Brad "Still no"
lmfao, that's the best description I've ever heard, and I totally see it lol
I been goin through yalls videos, I LOVE slowly watchin how you two are becoming genuine fans...
Marilyn Manson is *Industrial*
Right on Lex, Its pretty much anyone who thinks they are better than others.
He is a legit living legend. Yall should check out his interviews.
I love when interviewers are in awe because he is intelligent and well spoken
Absolutely and when an interviewer tries to make a dig at him he makes them look stupid in the most delicate way also if you listen closely almost every line has 2 meanings that sound like something basic but actually means something important often speaking truth to power and pointing out flaws in society and the system itself there's only one lyricist that can rival Manson and that's Dani filth ,filth is more of a romantic while Manson is more of a political and societal philosopher
Yes he is extremely intelligent
The whole Holy Wood album is a masterpiece.
For real. I rate Holy Wood a lot higher than Antichrist Superstar.
Right! It’s my personal fave
Nope
Absolutely love the album
Yes, it's my favourite one🤘🤘🤘
Hands down top 3 best showman concerts I’ve been to. He had crowd going crazy.
I bet. Wish I could’ve seen them live. Especially during this period
I have always understood this song to be in two steps. 1) The singing character is the demagogue in the concept album. He hates the elites and their beauty culture. 2) His hate for them is a motivator for him to take power over all of humanity and "fix" them, thus the "fascism will take it away." Also, Manson is not a fascist. He is singing a character that is a metaphor for American conservatism. I wouldn't say Manson's lyrics can be taken as his own views verbatim. He is almost always illustrating the world provacatively, and in this song's case providing a psychological explanation for why such an event (the event happening on the concept album) can be possible.
He is one of the most artistic and clever superstars of all times!
He's not just any superstar, he's the Antichrist Superstar.
@@nihilist1680 Yep
I love that Lex actually did nail the meaning of the song just from one lyric. Well done Lex. Easy to see you have a natural artist's mind!
Love this so much!
One of the first of his songs I heard when young was his cover of "Sweet Dreams" - still one of the creepiest songs to me, and always a fave. It was already a strange song originally, then Manson turned into something more hair raising, lol. He also did the theme song for the first Resident Evil movie, the intro through the credits (no vocals, just instrumental).
And yeah, his stuff is way creepier than Rob Zombie, lol. Rob is more...fun/silly in my opinion, while Manson is a more sinister vibe.
You’re so close. Nine inch nails the perfect drug. Nine inch Nails was a huge influence on Marilyn Manson.
I grew up in the same town as Manson and my little band practiced in the same warehouse complex as Marilyn Manson and the Spooky kids. I remember seeing has flyers posted up all over the place him in high striped socks and a lunchbox. I don't think anyone had any idea that he was going to make it. You mentioned NIN, I saw them in a Miami club with Meat Beat Manifesto I remember Manson was talking to Trent and we were like "wow he knows NIN." Anyway that warehouse had the most eclectic mix of band practicing on any given night. On bay would have a guy wilt welding goggles and a synth the next would be thrash metal, then 3 people beating on various large metal pieces of garbage with someone reading poetry over the "beat". Good time
Amen... they shoukd do some Legit NIN reaction including their lives 😭
Iggy Pop, Alice Cooper, and KISS are his influences as well.
Ah Yes. Nine Inch Nails. When you want your Skinny Puppy watered down.
Anything by NIN except The Perfect Drug would be better. Even Trent dislikes that song.
Love this!
Best reaction I've ever seen. Love how you guys dove into it like that. If I could subscribe twice, I would.
Manson is unic. Incredible artist. Go deeply with his music. You have to read the all lyrics💘
The weird sound you hear is his voice looped in reverse. The album is full if subliminal content. The whole album is a masterpiece. Try listening with a lyric sheet, his lyrics will blow your mind.
Great advice for my day off tomorrow
I concur
@@xztream2455 hope you loved it
It's actually NOT in reverse. It's just heavily processed and garbled. The original audio if of a man saying "...shoot down on the town and kill anyone who isn't beautiful." In fact, that same clip was used, unprocessed, in at least one song from Marilyn Manson and the Spooky Kids, 3-5 years before The Beautiful People was ever recorded. This has been the Manson Minute.
@@stat1stick yes it is. He wrote so in his autobiography. Unless of course you think he was making it all up
Finally! I've been waiting for this day !
I love that when the guitars joined the drums, Lex started to light up with a smile.
I wish there was a reaction with the actual, uncensored lyrics.
This entire album is an artistic expression of Carl Jung's work. Industrial rock at its best.
I would be curious to know in what way it's a reference to jungs work.
I've never made that correlation, besides the obvious reference to the shadow in the expression (sublimation) of the primordial instinct through aggression and anger through "harsh" music.
Um...no it is a rock opera about a misanthropic demagogue taking power over the world.
@@nexttime4532
www.academia.edu/36455089/Antichrist_Superstar_Marilyn_Manson_and_the_Planetary_Archetypes
With Jung's work being an expansion of Nietzsche's, the correlation is obvious.
@@JEBrink it is obvious as long as you're informed about it, thank you very much, I'll read it.
Love this whole album. Just don’t expect to come out at the end in a good mood lol
manson deals with a lot of the darker parts of the human psyche in every album i can think of. never deny them because that only makes them stronger and eventually they "burst out" in the worst way possible. mansons music is unapologetic and honest and shows just how smart he is.
🤣🤣🤣🤘👏
I really appreciate the range of music these two listen to and enjoy.
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve moshed to this at clubs and MM gigs! An absolutely legendary song!
Manson did a GREAT cover of Tainted Love! Perfect band for the eyes Lex!
First band I ever went to see. Big day out-Milton Keynes 1999. See selpultura, placebo , Manson and headlined by Metallica. Me and my best mate, two 14 year olds surrounded by metal and madness on our own and never had 1 issue. Metal fans are the nicest people in the world and look out for each other. Great memories
That was a good day.
Damn. That was a good show you lucky mfer
Yes! love that music too, great reaction guys
Dudes, your reactions are great the interactions and analysis are brilliant.
Yaaaas! Marilyn Manson is such a great artist and a brilliant individual. He is absolutely one of my favorite artists ever. If people can get passed the aesthetics and actually HEAR the messages he spreads, he wouldn't be considered as such a problem child of rock.
Coma White is my favorite, but there are so many more!!
Lunchbox, Tourniquet, Fight Song, dope show, disposable teens, mObscene, man that you Fear....
You have got to go deeper!!
Dont forget (s)aint uncensored vid as well 😂
The censorship has messed up some parts of this masterpiece. "hate every MF that's in your way"!!!!! "you can't smell your own sh*t on your knees"!!!
His covers of tainted love and sweet dreams are amazing! 🙌🏼
Love the contacts, Lex!
One of the best songs ever to play LOUD
You should do “Tourniquet”, that’s always been one of my favorite songs by them.
Them contacts❣️
You two keep up! Love it. 💯🙌
1 of the greatest concerts I ever went to. Saw him many times an his live shows are so good. When he opened for nine inch nails was insane concert.
Before I watch this, I gotta say, this album is absolutely amazing! It is dark and abrasive, and so well curated with empathy, pain, lust, jealousy, longing as well as thoughtfulness! 🙂
Was hoping after you watched Eminems "The Way I Am," and Em said, "Blame it on Marilyn, and the heroine..," you'd get to this.
Just starting, can't wait!
Would like to see you guys listen to more Eminem though, the song "Drug Ballad," explicit version.
It's Eminems "love song."
You guys rock!
Damn, Lex! You not only nailed the essence of the song. You actually managed to understand what Marilyn Manson is all about, just by hearing a few sentenses! Took me a long time to understand him, and still I was a huge fan!
Good job, and good job with the channel.
Not a Manson fan but I love how you 2 really give all music a honest listen!!
“Dope show” is even better… crank it up
Not really
@@andrepereira744 Yes really
@@tomh3999 They have better songs.
Lex identifying this as art is probably the best and most to-the-point description I have ever heard of Manson's music. I'm somewhat of a Manson connoisseur and for me, the pinnacle of Manson's artistry and production is in the album Mechanical Animals. The songs 'The Last Day On Earth', 'Mechanical Animals', and 'Disassociative' are absolutely incredible masterpieces.
I love how bro is so focused on the music. I love that! And, it's so freaking awesome to see Lexi smile and then smile larger when the music gets heavier! I absolutely love watching you two react to heavy metal :)
I love watching Lex find her inner freak!!!
Embrace it girl.
Love the eyes and hair btw
Please do more Marilyn Manson. Basically any song off any album is good. 👍 he’s been my favorite artist sense I was like 12
Yas! Coma white, the nobodies, dope show, disposable teens are some amazing manson songs.
I absolutely love lex”s comments… she is usually one my idea of the songs…. And seems more opened minded about music, Love you girl
Lex has developed zombie eye's from listening to too much metal 🤣
There's no such thing as too much metal
@@johnbush5347 And no such thing as too much of zombie eyes
This isn't even her final form.
Hearing this just makes me realise how much WWE and anime influenced my music taste 🙌🏾
Yes....please continue down this rabbit hole.
Eyes in, nice touch. Loved his music growing up. Rock on you guys
This is called Industrial Rock. Don’t let him fool you. Manson is extremely intelligent.
Shock Rock
Sound is considered industrial and visibly is shocking.
@@evabyrum3327 I'm just gonna stick with shock rock that's what they call Alice Cooper same deal
@@jimmiefarley9570 industrial is more like Fear Factory or Psyclon nine.
You guys weren't even alive in 1996 when this came out. I just started highschool. My dad actually heard this on MTV before I did and he showed me. Marilyn Manson actually gets better and more creative each release. You never know what to expect. Every album is so different from the next. I listen to mainly Thrash Metal now but outside of Thrash Metal. Marilyn Manson is in my top 10 favorites all day. He has 11 studio albums nothing is at all bad. That is a pretty large discography of music already in his 30 year music career.
His latest one is one of my favorite from him, i've been following his career since 1995, i love everything he did.
I saw them first in 1993, then again in 1994 when they opened for Danzig and then again for NIN. I saw them at least 20 times from 1993 to 1996. My personal opinion, their first album is a masterpiece and everything that came after wasn’t quite as good. Mostly due to them kicking out the guitarist who was also the songwriter and the one who came up with the concept of the entire band.
Your eyes are popping in this one...great reaction you two!!
Awesome contacts! Good reaction!
Funny you compared him to Rob Zombie, John 5 was Mansion lead guitar player and he is now Zombies lead guitarist.
Love this song! Marilyn never disappoints. Funny he went to a Christian school until about the 10th grade. He’s also very intelligent fellow.
Love the eyes Lex! Keep rockin!!
Hello from the UK
Love you guys and your videos.
Seen Mazza live a couple of times
I loved Marilyn Manson growing up, he's well spoken and intelligent - watch his interviews he's a fascinating person. I was devastated when I could no longer deny he was a trash human being.. From a musical standpoint I do highly recommend his cover of Johnny Cash's " Gods Gonna Cut You Down" .
Very much a separate the art from the artist kinda deal now... this album is still really great all these years later but yeah... I'd struggle to keep putting money in his pocket knowing more and more what a dick he is
@@paulshaw9953 Do you guys mind elaborating? I haven't really followed him since he was "popular" so to speak.
@@kutark he's been called out by many women recently for being abusive
@@paulshaw9953 Everyone's being called out by haters and then cancelled. It's so easy to post something on social media and ruin the reputation and career of those who have success like Johnny Depp, Kevin Spacey, Dave Ellefson, Louis C.K., Ben Affleck, Sylvester Stallone, Nick Carter, and the list goes on and on. People always like to believe if someone is accused of doing something bad; ''guilty until proven innocent.'' and that's more of a problem to cancel people based on random accusations without evidence than actually being a little dick to someone on private life.
There are people who have accused him of shit without the intent to get him 'cancelled' but just merely to explain why they don't like him. Other bands saying that he's pissed in their food and drinks on tours and shit. The dude very clearly has boundary issues and it bleeds into even the live performances sometimes. I think it's valid to wait for evidence still, all I'm saying is that there's a lot that also makes the suspicion of him valid.
In an interview Mason admitted to putting background noises in his song intended to aggravate and frustrate his listeners.
I remember the time I discovered the hidden track on this album. Scared the crap out of me.
Manson's natural vocal effects that he can do are incredible. He's often overlooked for his vocal abilities
Lex has a rockers soul and she didn't even know....been watching y'all for a while and I love your reacts
Lex is on a savage frequency. Brad is so far away. Catch up brother.
I feel like most music just goes over his head. Doesnt seem to have a musical bone in his body... especially compared to her.
@@3allz yep absolutely it's very frustrating watching someone who's clearly not even into music have a reaction channel to music. Brad if you're reading this I'm sure you think you like music but no, you don't
Fun fact Marilyn Manson is said to have an IQ of 148 he rates as a genius on the scale
Great reaction 💪🏽
I was a late teen/young adult when I was introduced to Marilyn Manson back in the day. His music kept me sane and kept me entertained from doing bad . I’m 40 now and still enjoy it. Thank you for your reaction, keep 90s metal alive .
nope, im out. Freaking me out with your contacts. Bring back them beautiful brown eyes.
One of my favourite artists. Great music to pick up your day 🥰
Wow! The first time hearing anything from Manson?! That’s crazy!!! Such a crazy catalog! Have fun!!!
luv the contacts
alot of energy!
I love Lex so much after watching this video!
When this cd came out shows were pure pandemonium. Love the reactions as always 🤘😤🤘
Love the contacts Lex.
I love the eyes Lex. Enjoying the reaction to the music.
Haven’t heard Marilyn Manson in forever! Good reaction 🙂
havent missed him live in 15 years one of the best live performers ever
I like when you guys give us your own interpretation and then read the meaning of the song online, that was fun to listen to.
Lex killed with the eyes. Happy for you Brad. Love you guys. Straight Gang Gang.
Another dope oldschool jam glad great reaction
Good ups.
First time I saw him was in '93 as The Spooky Kids, and they were opening for Genitorturers somewhere in Orlando.
Speaking of Gen, 120 Days of Genitorture is a pretty solid album.
Love the contacts, Lex! Some small fangs would compliment them awesomely!
