Marilyn Manson – Born Villain

He is back with a new record coming out and a new single/video that is classic sick MM.

Born Villain

 

 

 

(this post updated on 8/5/17 – the single link to Whatever Happened to Rock ‘n’ Roll Tumblr is amazing but sadly now leads to a dead you tube copyright infringement – boo yah – but since this was posted in 2011 some of Marilyn’s fans created a Marilyn Wiki where all things Marilyn can be studied – including the shiznet behind “Born Villain”  – love ya Marilyn Manson!) How bout that baby? I typed SHIZNET! Love to love you baby. ~mc

Great Music

Last week I made a mix cd for my truck with 15 random tracks. While i have enjoyed all tracks, one in particular I play over and over. Track 9, Saint Vitis – White Magic Black Magic, which I originally discovered in the 80’s from a free comp cassette from SST records that I ordered from the back of a magazine. I bring this up because this morning while driving to the grocery store and cueing up that song, I felt an overwhelming feeling of happiness to be hearing this great great song. So on the way back, feeling this feeling of euphoria from the booming dooming effects of White Magic/Black Magic, I decided it was time to listen to a late Christmas gift to my honey, an 180 gram pressing of Robert Plants newest disc “Band of Joy” Listening to side 3 right now, I am reminded of how important great music is in my life. The bonus is I am enjoying it fully with my honey, and the bonus of the bonus is that we will be seeing Robert play live next month. How lucky I am in life to spend it with someone whom I love so deeply and to have known such great music and had someone to enjoy it with.

The Ruiners – Happy Birthday Bitch

I just recieved a copy of the latest music from “The Ruiners” who hail from DETROIT USA!

Anytime I get a new CD from a band to check out the first litmus test is to take in for my trip to work in the ‘Death Truck’. I have learned that any music that sounds good in the Death Truck will sound GREAT on my big time system or any system for that matter. I once heard Gene Simmons say that they liked to hear their music on AM radio in the 70’s cause if it sounded good on that he knew it would sound GREAT on any music fan’s system….err something like that.

Anyway, the new CD “Happy Birthday Bitch” seems to be a culmination of all thing ‘Ruiners’. I’ve been a fan of the Ruiners every since I first listened to “Gun Time” (or was it “Beg”?) on an old “Old Skars & Upstarts Vol, ?”. Later I discovered their other music from their one time website, the internet and music catalogs. I think I have them all but if I don’t I sure wish they would help me fill in my collection. It is quite an awesome collection of what I consider REAL ROCK AND MOTHERFUCKIN’ ROLL. I’m talkin’ about FIRE, GUITARS on FIRE, FIGHTS, DRINKS, SUBSTANCES, BOOTS, LEATHER, WINSTONS, SWEAT, BLOOD and, ALBUM COVERS with razor blades, cake, cigarettes, condoms, booze, lips, lips, and BLOOD.

OK…About the music, this is why we are reading right?. The music is TIGHT, LOOSE, RIGHT on the mark. I’ve listened to all their releases and they all point in a direction of this one.

Ok…the music!!…………

The opening track, SUGAR BUZZ, is a buzz of innuendo’s that drain the brain better than Steven Tyler ever thought of disguising the meaning of sweet pussy and Rock & Roll….the point being…well if you know Steven you know the point and if you listen to the Ruiners you see another way it can be said in a different way.

The guitars blaze fire out of the strings, the vocals sound like harsh shrills of sparks pouring out of Rick’s lips, and at other times like hot lava smoldering down his chin.

The whole band sounds tight as hell, and they well should since they have been crankin’ this brand of PURE ROCK out their asses for over 10 years.

Suburban Cop, “HEY, you just found my crotch”

Beer Time, ”

Honestly, I have tried my best to come up with a review that would be memorable for this memorable band that may go on to get me more awesome bands sending me music to review, but my whole feeling for MusicFilter has always been, only write about what truly moves you. I can’t count the CD’s that end up as coasters in the shed, but I can count the CD’s that remain on my main playlists I listen to every weekend, and one of those CD’s is now “Happy Birthday Bitch“. That sums it up people, The Ruiners, Fucking MOVE ME. They will make you wanna play guitar, make you wanna kiss your girl, make you wanna be a rock star.

Think ROCK & ROLL of the coolest form. Think FIRE. Think LIPS. Think swagger. Think DETROIT. Think of the RUINERS. This album will NOT DISAPOINT!

Whover wrote this said it well:

“From Detroit USA, The Ruiners are a wild and fantastic beast; pure white lightning & sexy self-destruction. Having endured club bannings, beatings, court enforced restraining orders, jail terms, cat fights, pregnancies, bankruptcies, heart attacks, overdoses, emergency room visits and death threats over the last 10 years, the band is now fresher, sexier & more self-confident then ever with their brand new album Happy Birthday Bitch . This 10 song blast of Detroit sleaze is destine to be thee greatest party record of all time, with a lot of fuzzed out sounds, primitive drums, mucho sex appeal & greasy bar room grit…and that my friends is what The Ruiners do best.”

On a side note: I play Rock Band. I Like the process of strappin on my fake guitar, getting the mic strung to the chair for ‘Fresca’, making sure everthing is just right berfore The Coke Bandits kick Rock and Roll ASS!

I amagine that bands like The Ruiners are against Rock Band. I don’t care. I like to pretend I have talent. I like playing with Miss Chicky. She sings like a crazy fucking rock and roll bitch from hell who I happen to be deeply in love with. Ruiners, your album would KICK ass for an untalented Rock wanna be like myself and may get you all some exposure for your awesome fucking music to a crowd that may not hear you or hear of you otherwise. Also I figure any cool band who lets their music be played on Rock Band is helping change the crappy music that most people think is rock today. Help get the REAL message of REAL rock to these young dumb asses who think (fill in crappy band here) is rock. Just a thought.
