In 2000, Eminem was the king of shock value entertainment, therefore dethroning Manson of the title. In addition to that, his previous effort, Mechanical Animals, was a bit too glitzy and glamorous (al a David Bowie) for his core fans. Fortunately, with something to prove, Manson dropped Holy Wood. It's his best album since Antichrist Superstar, and until Eat Me, Drink Me. It had great lyrics, solid hooks and an industrial sound which all blended together well- a feat that is almost never achieved successfully.
