MARILYN MANSON – Smells Like Children (CDEP) Jewel Case

MARILYN MANSON – Smells Like Children (used CDEP copy) (1995) Released by Interscope Records/Nothing Records/MCA Records in a standard jewel case w/black tray. (Canadian Pressing)

Originally intended as a single for "Get Your Gunn," this release evolved into a full-length remix EP that served as the bridge between the band’s debut, Portrait Of An American Family, and the career-defining Antichrist Superstar.

Produced by Trent Reznor, it is a gritty, experimental collection of covers, remixes, and disturbing sound collages.

The album is heavy on sampling, distorted dialogue, and unsettling ambient noise that perfectly captures the "spooky kids" aesthetic of the mid-90's.

The band takes classic tracks from disparate genres and warps them into their signature dark, industrial-rock style.

While technically an EP, its massive success turned the band into a household name and a central figure in the decade's "culture wars."
