Actually...Who decides the hits is the record companies.
Do you think suddenly across the land at the same time everyone just happens
to love that new song. NO. The record companies filter their idea of good
music(which is at times amazing music); leaving out better bands in the indie
and unheard of section, and puts their music onto the radio. If you are
indie..usually if you have some talent and popularity one local radio station
will spin you. Those with the money make the rules. MM isn't so much of
talent, as he is image. The opposite of your parents...so it must be a
rebellion....whatever.

Subject: Re: (mobility) Marilyn Manson -Reply
alright, but the record company doesn't force you to support
the band. of all the people that i know that bought the album
with sweet dreams on it, only five or six got it because it
was manson. record companies push songs that they
want to succeed, but it's up to the people to request it
or spend the money on the singles. and i think that indie
music doesn't get played because it has horrible circulation.
the more that people hear it, the better off you'll be, but
small bands just don't have the money to press their music.
and anyways, a lot of people aren't open minded to new
music, so they want to hear the new manson single over a
band that they've never heard of. it's a problem that a lot
of people have.

is there something wrong with getting an album because you like one song
on it and you want to hear what else the band does? to bring this
conversation to a moby standpoint.. i got Moby-Everything Is Wrong (my
first moby purchase) because I had heard Go a while back and then i saw
him live and was amazed by it and wanted to hear more of what he did..
was i wrong? what should i have done? waited til i heard every song on
the album before buying it?

indie music doesnt get radio airplay because it doesnt have any money
behind it.. for a radio station to play your song.. you a) have to give
them the actual song b) kiss their ass like crazy (in the us its illegal
for a record company to give money to a radio station.. but gifts are
not illegal)

umm.. i believe that for a lot of people when Sweet Dreams came out
Manson was a new band that they had never heard of

I'm on the chemical list, as well as this one; it's usually got quite a bit

As for industrial bands? I would imagine that Marilyn Manson has the only
readily active mailing list in the genre recently. Seeing as how the
entire scene has virtually collapsed on itself I don't see much happening.
Sorry for the bitch session, but I really miss the heyday of industrial
music before it became polluted....hmm....:(

I've got all of the Trophy releases and they're pretty solid-certainly not
on par with more recent techno excursions by other bands, but good
nonetheless. I don't have End Of Everything, simply because it's due to be
released domestically in the next few weeks. Like you, I'm not willing to

of course I do! I'll bet that many people on here like the velvets, but
many haven't heard them. They have an inspired and influenced so many
bands that I think all new music is somehow a result of this band whether

Welcome to Mobility: The unofficial Moby mailing list! This list
discusses the aspects, rumors, and issues of the music artist Moby.
It also discusses his pseudonyms (i.e., Lopez, Voodoo Child, etc.)
and the music of his record label Trophy.
Please keep this file as reference, as it contains valuable information
on the details of the subscription, in particular how to send commands
to deal with unsubscriptions.
If you ever need to retrieve another copy of this message, email
majordomo@xmission.com with the command "info mobility" in the body
of the message.
HOW TO SUBSCRIBE AND UNSUBSCRIBE
- --------------------------------
To join "mobility," send email to majordomo@xmission.com with the
command "subscribe mobility" (without quotes) in the body of the
message. You will receive a confirmation message and a copy of this
information file. Once you are subscribed, you will receive each
message as it is posted to the list.
A digest version of "mobility" is also available. If you subscribe
to the digest you will receive groups of postings in a single email
message instead of one at a time. These "digests" are sent out
whenever there is a certain amount of text in the queue. It is
usually best to try the regular version of the list first and then
switch to the digest if you are getting more mail from the regular
version that you can deal with comfortably. To subscribe to the digest,
send the command "subscribe mobility-digest" to majordomo@xmission.com
(again, with no quotes) in the body of the message.
*** Once you have subscribed, send your email to mobility@xmission.com
To leave the list, send email to majordomo@xmission.com with the command
"unsubscribe mobility" or "unsubscribe mobility-digest" (as appropriate)
in the body of the message. If you have trouble unsubscribing, send
email describing the problem in detail (what commands you sent, what
you got back if anything, etc.) to owner-mobility@xmission.com.
CHANGING FROM BOUNCE MODE TO DIGEST MODE
- ----------------------------------------
Should you wish to receive a digest, send a message to
majordomo@xmission.com and in the body of the message type
"unsubscribe mobility" on the first line, and then type
"subscribe mobility-digest" on the next line.
Remember: problems with your subscription should be reported
to owner-mobility@xmission.com, not to the list itself.
THE GOLDEN RULES
- ----------------
1. Please keep the discussion on the list confined to that
revolving around Moby, his record label Trophy, and the pseudonyms
thereof. For example, while Aphex Twin may be a great artist, most
members of the list don't really care since it's not related to Moby.
2. Please keep in mind basic netiquette when making postings to the
list. When replying to a message, try to quote only the sections of
the original message that are relevant to reply and EDIT the rest.
Avoid using excessively long signatures -- while they may look fancy
remember that people will see them on your every posting and will
start to looked tired real quick (four lines is a good size).
3. Try to keep messages relevant to the list's topic (no general
advertisements, "warnings" about viruses, chain letters, and so
forth). Polls that are being conducted should be headed by one
individual who collects the responses and publishes them to the list.
The list manager has final say on whether a topic is welcome on
the list; please do your best to follow his guidance.
4. The messages you send are going out to hundreds of other people.
Please think twice before posting flames or extremely large messages to
the list. You should *never* send graphics or audio files to the list
- -- doing so may result in your subscription being canceled.
5. Do not repost messages from this list to other forums without first
getting permission from the person who wrote that message.

I was reading a newspaper article shortly after the last death of a band
member (who was it, sterling I think)... and it said Mo doesn't do much
musically anymore; she's a mom, and so she doesn't have much time to
spend with a band.

Well, I started getting really into that whole era of art just a year or
so before the VU, and so now I go to every museum that has that stuff...
Warhol, Lichtenstein, those are my two favorites, then all the rest, some
Jasper Johns, etc.
Some of the stuff is really cool.

So we admit he's a sellout, and maybe didn't *mean* for his
listening audience to be adolescents desperately searching for some form of
rebellion. I still have NO respect for the man, the music, the message,
whatever.

Good for you! Sorry I don't want to be sarcastic. It juist struck
me a s funny because that is *exactly* what my one Manson-liking (well,
worshipping) friend would say).

I could not agree any more!!!!! I changed schools from elementary
to middle (I'm in high school now) and whenever I see anyone all the little
Madonna wannabes and NKOTB fanatics who made fun of me constantly cuz I
liked the Cure, Depeche Mode, and REM are all dressed up in their mall punk
clothes. IT makes me want to puke!!!

I know I've been bashing teens just as much as anyone but hey I'm
only sixteen so could we be a little less harsh here? As I *hope* I show
we're not all like that.
I saw Scream for the first time the other day and hooboy did it suck! But
I was shocked at teh end to hear Moby! I can't believe he put one of his
songs in that piece of crap! Does anyone know if The Saint is any better?
Does anyone have that soundtrack? Is the soundtrack any good cause it
looks like it would be.
I know my posts are *way* too long but one more thing. Is anyone on this
list or does anyone on this list know this guy Brian who used to live in
Marlborough CT and is absolutely the biggest moby fan on earth? I know
he's on the web so I wouldn't be shocked to find him here.
That's all for now....

I think that he did intend for that to happen; when his first album came
out it was virtually unheard of-in fact my friends & I would take the cd
into industrial clubs to get them to play it. In the past year and a half
however, he's decided to choose image over music, and sadly it shows up in
the creativity of his work (read: it sucks now).

:) Indeed you have...

!!!Are you serious? I thought that Scream was one of the most intelligent
horror movies of the past 10 years (along with In The Mouth Of Madness &
City Of Lost Children). The writing was amazing, the acting was superb-and
it ended with First Cool Hive ;) I was quite pleased that he lent a song
to it.
Regarding the Saint; I think that most people will agree that it was quite
a mediocre film-nothing great & nothing terrible. The soundtrack? With
the exception of Everything But The Girl & Moby, it was a fairly forced
effort. All of the "next big thing" artists are featured with their
respective "big" new tracks. Get it for the Moby song if you must (I did),
but other compilations are much, much better (Wipeout XL & The Trip Hop
Test Volume 1 come to mind).
Take care....

there was a recent article in a mag on what she's doing now. alas i read
so many of them i can't remember which. maybe RS,but that's as about
mainstream press as i go.
does anybody know if "berlin" is still available in vinyl? that album is
a must have.
also when will "come on baby" be out?
i've bought my stores entire moby collection and they haven't gotten my
imports in. it's been a month.of course i'm also waiting for REM "how
the west was won" imported from germany. to live in europe would be
divine.

im pretty sure its not- i went on a vu & lou record hunt awhile ago.
nothing at the big stores but my friend snagged berlin for a buck at
amvets last summer, i got a few lou reeds. check independant stores, or
thrift shops is all i can suggest. berlin is definitly one of the oddest
out there.. sorta creepy, yknow?

that it is. andy is great.. you start reading about his life and wonder
what planet he's from <: have you ever seen any work my jean michel
basquiat? he's another fave of mine; very childlike but when you look
into the works ther is so much hidden. art is one of the biggest parts of
my life.. i think it takes a lot of balls to throw your life on paper and
let others check it out.. same with music..
