===== Manson Wants To Record With Ozzy =====
MARILYN MANSON has said he would like to collaborate with OZZY OSBOURNE,
and has spoken out about his long-awaited novel.
The pair became friends after Manson joined the Ozzfest tour of the
US in the summer. Now, the controversial rocker has said he has
discussed "creative ideas" with the Black Sabbath frontman.
"I don't know if I should say what we were talking about" Manson told
Kerrang! magazine. "It was private. But we talked about things we'd
like to do together in the future, some creative ideas we have.
There's a strong mutual admiration between us."
Manson also said that work continues on his long awaited novel, which
was originally intended to coincide with his 'Holy Wood' album. The
star is currently editing the book down.
He said: "It's a fiction novel, most likely comparable with something
like 'A Clockwork Orange'. The storylines are not similar in any way,
but it's a social commentary and it takes place in a fictional time
that's neither the past nor the present.
"It deals with all the subjects that the record focuses upon: the
value of children, politics and religion, violence as entertainment.
I'm sure it will be greeted with great controversy and hatred, and
I'm sure someone will read it and want to make it into a film. But
my original idea of making it into a film the way I wanted to would
never be possible. It would never be shown in a theatre; the images
are far too grand, elaborate and violent."
