People looking to put a little shock into their Halloween celebration should head to Biloxi to spend an evening with industrial metal’s dark prince. At the height of the ‘90s alt. rock movement, Marilyn Manson startled the public with his debut album, “Portrait of an American Family.”

While the grunge bands lamented, Manson’s band raged through the underground with a crunchy, grinding industrial sound accented with a disturbing stage show. The band entered the mainstream with its cover of the Eurhythmics’ “Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This).” Their all-out war on everything sacred spread quickly across the world and stirred controversy. Marilyn Manson’s music caused the modern Goth scene to emerge, with a legion of pale faces and dark eyes.

Marilyn Manson will introduce its audience of ghosts and ghouls to “The Pale Emperor,” the band’s ninth studio album. It’s a slight departure from the band’s industrial metal past. Some tracks descend into sporadic industrial mayhem, but overall “The Pale Emperor” could be considered one of the band’s most subdued albums. Even though it is different, open-minded fans will not be disappointed. Marilyn Manson retains the dark vibes throughout.

About The Author

Stephen Centanni

With the exception of two years spent at Auburn University, Steve Centanni has spent his life in Mobile County while focusing on his two passions: music and the written word. As soon as he was issued his driver’s license, Centanni began to explore the local music scene in the early ‘90s. He filled his weekend with visits classic local venues such as the Four Strong Winds Coffee House, Vincent Van Go-Go’s and Culture Shock, all of which welcomed those who had yet to reach 18. After high school, Centanni traded Mobile for Auburn to complete his B.A. in English with an emphasis on general writing. While at Auburn, he had the honor of studying under the Pulitzer-winning poet Natasha Trethewey, who served as the nation’s Poet Laureate in 2012 and 2014. After receiving his diploma, Centanni quickly moved back to Mobile and completed the University of South Alabama’s graduate program with a M.Ed. Eventually, he was tapped by the nationally distributed Volume Entertainment Magazine to serve as the magazine’s managing editor/senior writer. His time with Volume allowed him to exercise his love for both music and writing. As Volume began to fade, Lagniappe recruited Centanni as their Music Writer and later their Music Editor, where he has remained for a little over a decade. As far as his involvement in the local music scene, Centanni organized Cess Fest at the Langan Park, which was a mini-festival focused on original local music in a time when original local music was veritably taboo in Downtown Mobile. For a short time, he brought original music to Downtown Mobile as the in-house promoter for the now deceased venue Cell Block. He managed local underground powerhouse Fry Cook, until the members parted ways. Centanni has lent his bass to bands such as Keychain Pistol and The F’n A-Holes, and he toured nationally as a member of Abstract Artimus & the Torture Children. Currently, he provides vocals for the garage blues rock outfit Johnny No. Ultimately, Centanni’s experience in the local music scene as both a participant and an observer has allowed him to witness the ever-changing persona of Mobile’s enigmatic music scene, which continues to leave him with more questions than answers.
