 Remote Sensing @ CES   (Site not responding. Last check: )

As the level of shock damage increases, peak height diminishes as this structure undergoes progressive disorganization, beginning in the quartz with the development of microfractures (samples A-2 and 767-1) and proceeding to the diaplectic glass stage (samples A-8 and A-6), at which the crystal structure becomes extremely disordered.
Shock damage may be so intensive that it induces a brown discoloration, called "toasting", as seen (bottom image, PP) in this cluster of quartz crystals (interpreted by the writer as caused by the shattering of a single crystal in this granite clast from Manson).

Guitarist Daisy Berkowitz and bassist Gidget Gein, who came from punk rock backgrounds, brought the musicianship and songwriting style of the Jim Carroll Band (whose "People Who Died" was an early favorite cover for Marilyn Manson) and the showmanship of The New York Dolls to the mixture.
The hard rock background of John 5 amplified this aspect of the band's sound in live performance; Tim Skold, a former guitarist, bassist, and vocalist in KMFDM, later blended in that band's so-called "ultra-heavy beat" of industrial drums and guitars.
All of the band's lyrics are written by Manson, whose songwriting style is characterized by a tendency toward misanthropy as well as by sharp, and occasionally inventive wordplay.
