Marilyn Manson - DOGMA (Music Video)

Portrait of an American Family was released to limited commercial success and mostly positive reviews; in 2017, Rolling Stone deemed the album one of the greatest in the history of heavy metal music. The group embarked on several concert tours to promote the release, including appearing as an opening act on Nine Inch Nails’ “Self Destruct Tour“, as well as the “Portrait of an American Family Tour“. “Get Your Gunn“ and “Lunchbox“ were issued as commercial singles, while “Dope Hat“ was released as a promotional single. The record was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America in 2003 for shipments of over 500,000 units in the United States. The record contains a wide array of cultural references, beginning with the first track: the poem recited in “Prelude (The Family Trip)“ is an adaption of a poem originally from the 1964 novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, which later appeared during the tunnel boat ride scene from Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory. In his autobiography, The Long Hard Road Out of Hell, Manson explained that the lyrics to the second song on the album, “Cake and Sodomy“, were inspired by a trip to New York City in 1990. He said that he wrote its lyrics in a hotel room after spending several hours viewing public-access cable television and “watching Pat Robertson preach about society’s evils and then ask people to call him with their credit card number. On the adjacent channel, a guy was greasing up his cock with Vaseline and asking people to call and give him their credit card number.“ The song’s intro contains several samples, including Marlon Brando in the 1972 film Last Tango in Paris saying “Go on and smile, you cunt!“, and Mink Stole’s character from John Waters’ 1977 film Desperate Living repeatedly screaming “White trash!“.
