But the exposure we got by doing the stint with Nine Inch Nails brought us a lot of attention.

We were like psychedelic folk combined with Sonic Youth's noise.

I'm open to getting more equipment, but I really won't have time to look into that until after the tour.

Micing it from two different angles in front of the speaker sounds huge, and it's so simple.

We're approaching things quite differently this time, but it will still sound like Marilyn Manson.

I have about nine guitars in all, so obviously I'm into collecting.

But the exposure we got by doing the stint with Nine Inch Nails brought us a lot of attention.

Nobody seems to play Yamaha electrics, but it's the best guitar I own.

Trent likes to record guitars direct, whereas I've always preferred playing through an amplifier.

I just saw metal as another tool for me to use.

We'll only be playing four new songs live, but all the material for the next album is basically finished.

Well, I didn't really grow up playing or listening to metal, like many of the kids I went to school with. I only got into it in my late teens, so when Marilyn Manson formed, it was at a time when I was still excited about approaching music from that angle.

It's like tabloid news programs that talk about how horrible something is, while at the same time they're glorifying it as their top story.

I'd played in about four or five bands before we started up, only a couple of which did club dates.

I'm happy with the way everyone presents themselves onstage.

Each member of the band has varied influences, and the same diversity is reflected in our fanbase.

It's great, because different groups of kids can laugh at each other and still enjoy the show.

There are kids out there that are into Iron Maiden and others who are strictly into industrial music, but they come for the same reason; they all like us and they different things out of the band's music.

It all begins with the initial tone coming from the cabinet, but EQ at the board is very important.

Experimenting with different sounds is great, but when it comes down to it, you're still playing a guitar.

There will be some tracks on the next album which that will consist of mostly noise and feedback, whereas others may just have guitar parts and samples.

We're playing the same songs, the same way, that we have for years.

What you hear about the band is always going to be more disturbing than any particular song.

If you make it sound too much like a synth, it will just sound like a guitar part played on a synth.

It was a good chance for us to play for people who would never have heard us otherwise.

I even have a Harmony Rocket and a Stratocaster with a scalloped neck back in Florida.

The bronze powder business, however, no longer required my personal attention, and was well managed by those I had chosen as the guardians of a secret, which was long and honourably kept.

The kinds of shows that seem to work now, the comedy shows, are those which require very little attention. They're superficial and I like articulate comedy.

The constant attention is what is so difficult.

As a scientist, my attention became totally focused on global warming some 15 years ago by the elegant and powerful measurements of carbon dioxide trapped in ice cores taken as much as 2 miles deep from the great East Antarctica ice sheet.

Anytime you have a difficult encounter with your child, there is a good chance that at least one of these factors is bringing out the worst in him or her: transitions, time pressure, competition for your attention, conflicting objectives.

I think it would have been a lot better for him to say, I did it and I'm sorry, McGwire was never one to show a lot of emotion on the field, not a player who sought attention and craved to be thought of as a nice guy.

I wanted to write a story that demanded the viewer's attention.

After some minor pieces of theoretical study that I worked on, a student in my statistical mechanics class brought to my attention a problem in polyelectrolytes.

I don't want to come off like the jealous brother who wasn't getting the attention, but it was like no one was really into me anyway. I wasn't really a priority.

If particular care and attention is not paid to the ladies, we are determined to foment a rebellion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any laws in which we have no voice, or representation.

There's a lot of other movies I like, but I don't even pay attention to directors to tell you the truth.

The genius of the economic machine is in its ability to convert these indulgences into profitability. It converts desire into attention, a grip on our eyeballs and eardrums, which in turn can be marketed to advertisers.

The police are the public and the public are the police; the police being only members of the public who are paid to give full time attention to duties which are incumbent on every citizen in the interests of community welfare and existence.

The writer should never be ashamed of staring. There is nothing that does not require his attention.

The poet produces the beautiful by fixing his attention on something real.

The nation did not begin to realize the extraordinary possibilities of the vast Western territory until its attention was thus suddenly and definitely concentrated on the Pacific by the annual addition of over fifty million dollars to the circulating medium.

Movies absorb our attention more completely, I think.

I guess because I pay so much attention to the physical part of the character, I don't look upon it as like Charlize Theron up there. I don't think of them as like Charlize Theron films.

They cannot count on the press and they cannot count on Congressional committees to bring the problems of the scientific community to their own attention, or to police the scientific community.

The difference between something good and something great is attention to detail.

For the past several years, the Meth Caucus has worked to engage the Office of National Drug Control Policy on this issue. We have tried to get their attention that meth requires a strong, comprehensive Federal policy.

Have you ever observed that we pay much more attention to a wise passage when it is quoted than when we read it in the original author?

I suppose that I was a kind of consultant for taste. Is it good taste? Or bad taste? I had an attention to detail, to what would tell best the story. Because many people get excited about the work and drift off from the story.
