Marilyn Manson: Born Villain (180g) Vinyl 2LP

Eighth studio album from Marilyn Manson & The Spooky Kids! Born Villain was Marilyn Manson's first album released after his departure from his long tenure at Interscope Records. The 14 tracks contained within showcase Manson's shockingly charismatic songwriting backed by sparse arrangements of heavy midrange guitars and industrial electronic beats. Also, it wouldn't be a Manson record without a cheeky cover of a pop song, and this vinyl edition includes his rendition of Carly Simon's "You're So Vain" (featuring Johnny Depp!) as a bonus track. Released by Cooking Vinyl on deluxe 180 gram double vinyl housed in gatefold jacket.

• 180g double vinyl pressing
