About this listen

When this best-selling autobiography was originally released, everyone was shocked: The Long Hard Road Out of Hell was the darkest, funniest, most controversial and best-selling rock book of its time - and it became the template, both visually and narratively, for almost every rock book since. Marilyn Manson is not just a music icon, it turned out, but one of the best storytellers of his generation. Written with best-selling author Neil Strauss and modeled on Dante's Inferno, this edition of The Long Hard Road out of Hell features a bonus chapter not in the original book. In the shocking and candid memoir, Manson takes listeners from backstage to emergency rooms to jail cells, from the pit of despair to the top of the charts, and recounts his metamorphosis from a frightened Christian schoolboy into the most feared and revered music superstar in the country. Along the way you'll hear what happens to fans - and celebrities - who dare to venture backstage with the one of the world's most dangerous rock stars. In the words of Elle magazine, the book "makes Madonna's infamous Sex seem downright wholesome in comparison".

Fascinating stuff. It really made me think and look at the man behind the image. He has more heart than some of these people parading around as the people's mouthpiece.

Amazing dark and really funny.

the start of the book sets the tone that only gets darker and more depraved the longer it goes on.
ive never been a 'fan' of marilyn manson but do enjoy the music he's released. i listened to this out of curiosity; is he really the sadistic satanic artist everyone claims? ill let you decide.

chances are if you're looking to listen to this you pretty much know what to expect.

i did find the format slightly confusing... skipping from anecdote, to memoir, to poetic rambling and quotes kinda threw me off. i often found myself wondering if id accidentally skipped a portion due to its continuity

interesting, disgusting, compelling and confusing

Amazing!

Interesting but poorly written. A lot of metaphors ends randomly. Unsure whether to recommend this book

It isn't well written down

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Funny, dark, macabre, sinister tone.. a real mush mash of emotions but read extremely well. A book about Marilyn Manson or how he journeyed to become the persona he is , a icon for a jilted generation. Listen with caution as some topics are quite disturbing, a book that is raw, lots of verbal abuse , talks about woman in a misogynistic way, woman and men who both act in ways which show a lack of self worth or morals. It’s a lot to handle so be careful when reading.

Yes the title reads right
