The Cast :

MARILYN MANSON as himself and also known or referred to as "Herr Doktor". This is the creator of all vocals and OB ART manipulator of various instruments including: a burning piano, synthetic bass, mellotron, the saxophone and the mutilation of audio for personal use. He maintained some rhythm directive including (but not limited to) loops and snare drum rolls. There were also occassions where the one string guitar was implemented for dramatic purposes.

JOHN 5 as the lead guitar demagogue. He is responsible for rhythm, lead and dissonance in the field of guitar (inluding but not limited) to the 5, 6 and 7 string instruments. Piano and various orchestral elements were also choreographed by him using his guitar in a manner often viewed as inappropriate.

M. W. GACY as the chief chemist and philosopher of electronics, specializing in the field of keyboards and responsible for synthesizers, discoloration of words, loops, and political melody.

Introducing TIM SKOLD, who stars as the bassist. He is the shaper of electronics, loops, synth bass, keyboard and accordian. He is also responsible for OB Aart constructivism of guitar and beat.

GINGER FISH as the live drummer and primal meter interpreter. Leader of all rhythm divisions of marching and big band korps.
