Marilyn Manson has attacked My Chemical Romance, calling the emo outfit “sad and pitiful” and accusing them of being a pale parody of himself.
The shock rocker – real name Brian Warner – says that his new track ‘Mutilation Is The Most Sincere Form Of Flattery’, lifted from his latest long-player ‘Eat Me, Drink Me’ is actually an attack on MCR.
Speaking to the Londonpaper, Manson blasted: "I'm embarrassed to be me because these people are doing a really sad, pitiful, shallow version of what I've done (er, aren’t they copying Queen Brian?!).
"If they want to identify with me then here's a razor blade. Call me when you're done and we'll talk."
