Armageddon could have been a huge hit if it got the proper promotion and if any new band debuted with The High End Of Low today they'd be guaranteed a performance spot alongside Lady Gaga or the rest of the pop trash on the VMAs and hailed as the next 'brek through" act. from musically, conceptually, songwriting and artistry.

fuck Interscope and the record industry. the most promotion i've seen of THEOL were a few posters plastered on vacant walls in LA, not one TV promo spot or anything of the like.

this is an OFFICIAL call-out to the fans to do your part and promote the new video single everywhere. call your local radio stations, email / write to Rolling Stone, MTV, FUSE, SPIN, Perez, VH1, YRB, Blender, CNN, MSNBC, post to your blogs, MySpace, Twitter, Facebook, etc, etc, etc... you get the point.

anyone who thinks that fan response isn't important these days is as useless as Helen Keller in a submarine. record companies would base the release of a group's next single on the date of a video's retirement on TRL to use one glaring example.

fuck the mainstream ; let's drive this one home where it belongs for the first time.

I'm all for it, but I have no idea what to say to anyone. Why don't we settle on an official message to tell people and then everyone that reads this can use it? That way we don't have people writing in, " You mother fuckers better play Marilyn Manson now! He's the Anichris Superstar you greedy little grab assess!"

Honestly, how can you say you love her if you won't even eat her poop?

We can allso go into huge discussion bords of different forms, pretending to be someone offended by this etc. If we make threads where a lot of people will see it and pass it on, and since this video is really heavy, I think it would be a smart way to get PR. Because few people wants to see "the new marilyn manson video" but a lot starts to care when we're talking about "this horrible, obscene, descriminating antiwoman- music video todays artists are putting out" or/and "how we should start censoring stuff like this and not let ourselfs absorb this kind of behavior through enertainment so that we end of saying it's okay"... Etc. We can even pretend to be the angry feminists that will get a lot of shit in the face from the more art-friendly crowd.

What do you think?

Agreed. I started the promotion of this video on my blog and Facebook seconds after it was released and I'm promoting The High End Of Low since it was released...I will follow and keep an agressive promotion and request of this song and the album all across the latinoamerican media...Twitter etc. everywhere...I started to days ago a big campaign between the shows's promoters to Latinamerica to be part of the Etc World tour...I hope it works...thousands of fans from here hope the same...

Long life to Marilyn Manson and their Art!

Marilyn Manson himself should post a blog about this on myspace or something it could make things easier. Thank you for the support of my favorite artist I cannot appreciate it enough. I really hope Manson switches record companies or something. I am sure more people would be honored to have him apart of their company. I have been promoting the video all over mysapce and vampirefreaks with my Marilyn Manson: The High End of Low cult. Which is small but I am trying to do my part as a manson fan to give him the respect he deserves.

In response to me_andre's suggestion: while controversy can translate into publicity I don't desire to add to the chorus out there that receive work of this sort superficially and condemn it as trash. I think the cost of reinforcing such execrable views outweighs any benefit in publicity directed to the audience that will actually appreciate it and learn from it.

I also don't think it makes sense to promote this on the basis of being shocking. Most people including those who think it's trash probably won't be very shocked by it, and anyone who only wanted to see it for blatant shock value will come away disappointed.

Not that I don't think it's deftly poignant and in that sense might be thought emotionally shocking, but you probably have to think more about it than "so what? I've seen porn that's grosser than this." to feel that.

Fuck the mainstream!! Marilyn Manson is the anti-it, so he became it, changed it, it imitated him, but then he didnt even have to destroy it because its destroying itself so now its abandoning what created it....the artists and the fans!! Theres too many animals pissing in that stream these days anyway!! Its 1952 all over again so lets put on our improper clothes and plaster some "Devil Music" where people think it doesnt belong....in the hands of the masses!!!! No matter how hard they try they just cannot destroy him or us!!!

Will you pray to God or a star of Rock?

I wrote everyone on NK's post, except Perez. Yet. Think I'm just gonna try to crush him @ twitter. Not quite sure if he understands real art :)

This video really needs attention - from the fucking whole world. It's amazing, disturbing, simply breathtaking. Totally worth waiting for.

¶ Thursday, November 5th, 2009 - 07:13:20

For anyone lost for words, this is what I've been posting on message boards ( I hope those of you that I quoted don't mind):

NEW MARILYN MANSON VIDEO!

The new video for Running To The Edge Of The World has just been revealed on Marlyn Manson's web site.

This video is beautiful, moving and disturbing, but definitely a must see!

Please visit www.marilynmanson.com to view. NSFW 18+

Reviews so far:

"I had to hold up my tears.

Simply beautiful."

"WOW

He REALLY did it this time. Seriously...this video is SO deep and serious. It showed me a whole other side of Manson that I never though imaginable. I LOVED it. I NEVER saw him cry before. It seemed like he was crying out to the viewer instead of just having numerous shots in the video. He looks SO diferent now! AMAZING!!!"

" I can honestly say I wasn't expecting that at all, and it really gave me more respect for him as an artist, because it takes guts to put yourself out to the world like that"

"That was beautiful, painful, and brave at the same time."

"this video was difficult to sit through without feeling like I could burst into tears while watching. You could literally see and feel the extreme emotion Manson was feeling."
