NACHTKABARETT UPDATE - Eat Me, Drink Me & The Rape of the World



Just as the name 'Marilyn Manson' is a dichotomy of opposing elements, the term 'Eat Me, Drink Me' is itself a union of opposites in the context of Alice in Wonderland. 'Eat Me', the cake, made Alice grow while 'Drink Me', the bottle, made her shrink. In other words, the album title can dually act as an extension of the black/white, good/evil dichotomy that Manson continually portrays.

Eat Me, Drink Me can be seen, to philosophize on a deeper level, as the union of expansion and contraction; dichotomy of opposites, Marilyn and Manson. And the theme which is directly illustrated in the live performance.



With the American and first European leg of the tour closing comes a brand new NACHTKABARTT.com update on EAT ME, DRINK ME and THE RAPE OF THE WORLD TOUR. The live theatrics, and artistic influences behind them, are presented with the three most prominent elements evoked by Manson are Alice in Wonderland / Lewis Carroll, Vampirism and Manson's hero, David Bowie. All are detailed presented within:
