Descrição
Marilyn Manson toma suas inspirações do glamuor dos anos 1930 de Hollywood, o Grotesque de Vaudeville para a altura do extremo da decadência do cabaré e denominado "degenerada" arte em Weimar Berlim logo antes de sua destruição.

Manson diz: "Este álbum é sobre expressão. A imaginação e personalidade das individalidade podem ser presas por mentes pequenas ou definidas por qualquer pessoa. O gênio de arte acha santuário no meio de crianças e loucos para sobreviver. Isto, é quem nós somos".

Marilyn Manson teve também uma colobaração do renomado artista Gottfried Helnwein para o controvertido trabalho de arte do álbum no qual tem uma parte de grande séries que foram exibidas em museus do mundo todo.

Formação
Marilyn Manson: as himself and also known or referred to as "Herr Doktor". This is the creator of all vocals and OB ART manipulator of various instruments including: a burning piano, synthetic bass, mellotron, the saxophone and the mutilation of audio for personal use. He maintained some rhythm directive including (but not limited to) loops and snare drum rolls. There were also occassions where the one string guitar was implemented for dramatic purposes.
John 5: as the lead guitar demagogue. He is responsible for rhythm, lead and dissonance in the field of guitar (inluding but not limited) to the 5, 6 and 7 string instruments. Piano and various orchestral elements were also choreographed by him using his guitar in a manner often viewed as inappropriate.
Madonna Wayne Gacy: as the chief chemist and philosopher of electronics, specializing in the field of keyboards and responsible for synthesizers, discoloration of words, loops, and political melody.
Tim Skold: who stars as the bassist. He is the shaper of electronics, loops, synth bass, keyboard and accordian. He is also responsible for OB ART constructivism of guitar and beat.
Ginger Fish: as the live drummer and primal meter interpreter. Leader of all rhythm divisions of marching and big band korps.
