True, I agree. It's my favorite album of his cause it shows him thinking outside of the box and leaves you to wonder what he could've become as an artist by trying different things and not going back to the full Antichrist Superstar type look and sound for Holy Wood and what followed after.
Mechanical Animals was also well produced. People talk about Trent Reznor's production on Antichrist, but MA had a unique sound to it. It almost sounds like it's half human and half machine. The way the acoustic guitars are mixed in with all the electronics, it has it's own uniqueness to it that can't be found on any of his other albums. Manson became a lazy artist in the 2000s settling for a sorta generic guitar driven rock sound that don't mesh well with his older albums.
