Tapsearch Com EditorTechnically, it should be 'If I Were Your Vampire"...

...but the new Marilyn Manson song is pretty promising nonetheless. Heavy and dark, very direct.
One downside is that until now, pretty much every record had its own personality. Portrait was kind of cartoonish, Antichrist raw and bloody, Mechanicals glam, Holy Wood a more mature version of Antichrist and Grotesque a look at Alice Cooper-esque vaudeville. "If I Was Your Vampire" could have fit on Holy Wood, or maybe as one of the less-swingy Grotesque tracks. It's nothing we haven't heard from Manson before (which is to say it's awesome, of course).
Another criticism I have is that the lyrics are overdramatic at times. "I love so much you must kill me now"?
