TRENT REZNOR Slams 'Dopey Clown' MARILYN MANSON - June 2, 2009
According to Spinner.com, NINE INCH NAILS mastermind Trent Reznor has slammed one-time protégé, Marilyn Manson, in a new interview with U.K.'s Mojo magazine, calling the shock-rocker "a malicious guy and will step on anybody's face to succeed and cross any line of decency." Reznor added, "Seeing him now, drugs and alcohol now rule his life and he's become a dopey clown. He used to be the smartest guy in the room. And as a fan of his talents, I hope he gets his shit together."

Trent continued, "During the ['Downward Spiral' tour in '94 and '95] we propped them up to get our audience turned on to them and at that time a lot of the people in my circle were pretty far down the road as alcoholics. Not Manson. His drive for success and self-preservation was so high, he pretended to be fucked up a lot when he wasn't."

"Things got shitty between us and I'm not blameless," Reznor admitted. "The majority of it though was coming from a resentment guy who finally got out from under the master's umbrella and was able to stab him in the back."

Thought you guys had made up and were cool again... I guess since Trent has sobered up all of his druggy friends aren't cool anymore (makes sense to me) but I am sure there is quite a bit of truth to his comments. I also don't think Manson does half the drugs he used to anymore if he ever even does anything but drink anymore. Funny comment coming from Trent who while producing "Antichrist Superstar" everyone was using drugs heavily all the time. I guess he himself was a "dopey clown" back then but that album and "Downward Spiral" sure made him some money.

They were friends, then they weren't, then they were again, now they are not again. Whatever, Trent seems to not get along with a lot of people. Trent has more personal feuds with other (famous) people than Manson does. But Manson is definitely an alcoholic, he drinks Absinthe every day. But Trent's comments aren't talking too much shit (compared to things Trent has said about others):
"And as a fan of his talents, I hope he gets his shit together."
"Things got shitty between us and I'm not blameless,"

that thought that lol. i especially love it when ppl think they are in the band and take it personally when they change their music style or dont play music with the ppl they want and think that they are in the band and have any say on what goes on in the band other than the music is good or not.

he must be bored. all he's doing lately is interviews where he's talking about other people in a negative way. you'd think someone who has supposedly cleaned up their act might want to help someone, not call them out in a public forum. what a loser.

and icedearth, I agree completely. who the fuck does anyone on this board know that manson drinks absinthe daily? creepy shit.

trent needs to stfu, everyone gets to make their own choices.

reznor is on his path and manson is on his path. just because reznor has made tough decisions about his life does not mean that anyone else is ready to make those same decisions. good luck to both choices.

Hey Trent your music has sucked for years now....I saw NIN twice live and it was boring. It's sad for you to slam a fellow artist, you should look in a mirror and fix your hair. And Oh your opinion doesn't matter in the US.....

I admire Trent for his honesty. He's not afraid to voice his opinions and stick to his own standards rather than cave into society's screwed up version. People today are so use to having their @sses kissed, especially celebrities, that when they are confronted with the truth they can't f

Fuck Marilyn Manson and his retarded pseudo-satanic fanbase: He's a rockstar scumbag and needs to fuck off for good.

PS: His "music" is nothing but pure crap.

You all crack me up. You write that Trent needs to shut up and keep his opinions to himself when most of you are doing the same thing he's doing. The only difference is Trent can back up his opinions with some valid points. None of you are supporting your opinions or should I say criticisms. Its just "his music sucks" or "he needs to stfu". Opinions are one thing but being hateful just to make yourself feel like a big person is sad...very sad.

maybe if Trent wore some makeup and prance around like a Hollywood tranny you'd like him better.

that's an idiotic assessment of a guy who helped created an entire genre of music. Trent's got way more talent than Brian Warner can ever hope to have.

cheers.

Lurkzilla:

Difference is we don't expect our shit to be read by thousans of fans and spread on music news websites. Our comment is for the few that happen to come around here and into this article. Plus we're not in the public eye. It's much different.

Everyone's entitled to opinions but Reznor out of nowhere is trying to act like Eminem or some shit where he's just gonna smack talk anyone coming out with new albumsn in the "genre"

yeah but its your damn fault, treznor, that he's famous. you shouldve never propped him up back in the day. now we have to deal with his pseudo-intellectual drivel and, worse, his super annoying fan's pseudo-intellectual drivel.

NOW you realize he's a dopey clown?

dammit.

"Opinions are one thing but being hateful just to make yourself feel like a big person is sad...very sad."

You just described exactly what Trent has been up to lately. I agree completely, anyone can have an opinion, but Trent, if his "opinion" consists of blasting a fellow artist in a public forum, where, as roachville said, he knows it's going to be read by thousands of people, is completely without merit.

What's the point of spewing negativity in the press, I ask you? What did Manson do to him to provoke this? Nothing, to our knowledge. Even if he did, take the high road. He's being a judgmental idiot. Glass house, Trent. Glass house.

You did prop up this hack up for years. And made him a star by bringing all your buddies to produce and play on his second album(Ogre, Tommy Victor, etc...). Now half of America thinks he's some kind of genius. Thanks Trent!
