Smells Like Children [PA] by Marilyn Manson (CD, Oct-1995, Interscope Records USA)

First of all, I'll assume you're reading this because you can tolerate, and may even like Marilyn Manson. As a group, Marilyn Manson forge the way to being the world's all-time most famous shock-rock death metal band. This album showcases some of their better tunes (better than most else that was recorded prior to 1995). It's main selling point and the band's most popular (and acceptable?) song up to that point, "Sweet Dreams", is on this album. There are a few catchy and fast paced tunes that are sure to become favorites as well. Although this album includes covers and previously released tracks (and some remixes as well), it is still a great display of Manson's ability and talents, from an artistic standpoint at least.

The worst part of this CD is the abundance of interludes. They're fun to listen to the first time, but you'll soon find yourself skipping over them again and again to get to the actual real songs that suit you most. For this reason, if you're looking for more of an actual album with a lot more content, you should try Portrait of an American Family, or even skip a ways ahead to Antichrist Superstar.

All in all, a good piece to add to any Manson album collection, but there's a good chance it won't be your favorite.

I never received product or communication from the seller! Tried to contact him twice. Do not buy from him.

This CD is the Best that I have ever heard from Manson. This is a must have for EVERY Marilyn Manson Fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Half amazing tunes and half boring filler and shock comedy. This is completely hit and miss with nothing in between. Still, this is worth owning if you are a Manson fan if for nothing else the amazing Sweet Dreams! 3 Stars overall.

Its marilyn manson. of course its gonna be weird, but come on, its marilyn manson. If ya like him ya love him, and if ya hate ya hate him. But its what makes him different thats awesome.

One of my favorite Marilyn Manson ep's. The album that really made the world aware of the band through the single Sweet Dreams.

Smells like Children is definitely one of Manson's best albums. Creepy, strange lyrics and catchy riffs will keep you entranced for quite a while.

I bought the album 'Smells like Children' by Marilyn Manson and loved it. There are many good songs, funny clips from the Phil Donahue show and such things on the album. I'd reccomend it to any fan.

Well, i purchased it on ebay because my old CD was broken and i needed to buy a new one. I love this CD so much ! A beautiful voice, very interesting musical compositions, and very cute pictures inside the small booklet. live concert was a great show !!! and this CD is like a shortcut to that show, lol, i play this CD everyday since it received !!!
