Basically here's the three most well known 'shock rockers' (in my opinion) who are up for the title of King. Feel free to post any other contenders you think are out there but these three I feel are the most recognisable and popular crew.

Marilyn Manson. If you don't know, take out a pair of ribs at each side and imagine why he did that for...

I'm afraid I've got news for you Bozos but that is an untrue rumour. After reading his autobiography this along with several other myths were put to rest. For example another one was that he got a girlfriend to get her eye reomoved so he could hmmmm her in the eye.

I don't think any of them is really shocking though I know like nothing about Bowie.

Have to go with Manson, on this one. Music's not very good, but I think he's the one who really goes for the pure shcok value. Now, as far as music, Ozzie wins, hands down. [img]graemlins/wootrock.gif[/img]

Well basically Bowie is a music legend. The first guy to slap on the old lipstick and sing about swastikas. I'm suprised you've never heard of him at all! So Phillip who would you put forward as the most shocking then?

I know Bowie by name but not what he sang. But I guess Marilyn Manson takes it a bit further than the rest (maybe except Bowie then but I don't know)
