Antichrist Superstar and the breakthrough
The run is anchored by Antichrist Superstar (1996), the record that made Manson a household name and a lightning rod, its stark artwork as confrontational as the music. The hub also carries Smells Like Children (1995), the EP that preceded it. As prints these early covers carry the raw shock of an artist arriving to provoke, and on matte stock their heavy blacks hold their menace rather than throwing glare under a lamp.
