Lunchbox! June 21, 2005
4 out of 10 found this review helpful

I AM ALMOST 17 AND AM NOT A KID.
This is an excellent EP, although I wouldn't suggest it for the weak-minded. Some people think he's very weird, and some people say he's on drugs, but believe it or not, it's not true. Anyway this is a greatest hit and it is probably for hardcore fans. Here is my opinion of each track:

1. Lunchbox (Album Version) 5/5
Lunchbox is a greatest hit as I said. It's starts off with a little girl saying "next mother****er's gonna get my metal." It's very funny.

2. Lunchbox (Next Mother****er Remix) 4/5
I gave it 4 out of 5 because it's much like the other song, and it makes me laugh. I wonder who mixes these songs. Although,, listening to it, you could tell it certainly isn't a DJ.

3. Down In The Park 5/5
This is a cover of an old song. It's an excellent b-side that just pops up on this EP. I think it's great that it did, because most of the mixes on this CD are much like the song itself.

4. Lunchbox (Brown Bag Remix) 4/5
It's a good remix, there's no girl in it, the guitars are a little harder, and it's very good. Although it's still a little like the original song.

5. Lunchbox (Metal Remix) 5/5
The guitars are very hard on this, and it's much like the Brown Bag Remix. I like it, but it gets tiring if you heard the other remixes and/or the original version.

6. Lunchbox (Highschool Dropouts) [No Rating]
Same thing for the original review, although this is a censored version of the original song. My guess is that it's something a DJ used to play in front of people under 16.

Overall Grade: 8.5/10 The only thing is the remixes are alike, although it's still worth the money for a die-hard Manson fan!

This is a Maxi CD from the time when Manson singles still used to be great. The original song is one of the very best from Portrait of an American Family (What Manson fan didn't find him/herself wandering through the streets singing 'I've got my Lunchbox and I'm armed real well'?). The remixes are done by Charlie Clouser, and that already says it all. Clouser (NIN- and White-Zombie-keyboarder) is one of the best remixers around, and so Next Motherf***er, Brown Bag, and Metal are all great (though they do sound a bit alike, admittedly). Highschool Drop-Outs is not a remix, but just the censored radio version, and I guess it's rather a joke it landed on this single. The true highlight, however, is the new song Down in the Park, a Gary Newman cover version which is much more mature than many others on the Portrait CD, and the best Manson song from the early years. Amazon.com only lists four tracks, however the 6-track version is the only one I know. Four or six, get it!

one of the few singles well worth it, 4 songs that were only released on this single. the 3 remixes of lunchbox (next mofo, brown bag and metal) Give this classic manson song a funky new twist. and the cover of Down in the Park, is one that lives up to Gary Newman's origional.

I can easily why Lunchbox became a single from Portrait of an American Family. It was, and will always be a fun song. Any Manson fan who doesn't find this song occasionally popping up in his or her head, aught to be ashamed of themselves. It's about rebellion, violence and growing up and being a big rock n' roll Star. With this big single we are given the Original Lunchbox, the B-side Down in the Park, 3 Remix's and an Edit. The original is great in itself. Down in the Park is a very cool cover of the weird Gary Numan song. The 3 remix's are all pretty good, but I would say that the best remix is the Next Motherf***er remix. And I can only see the edit used by High school or college DJ's. I'm one of them so it's ok with me. Normally I am annoyed by Edits but this one somehow doesn't tap that little button in by head that says BURN AND DESTROY. Hope this helped. Bye.

How can you write a one line summary on something this good? August 16, 1998

This is a great CD! Lunchbox was a good song on POAAF, but it really is Down In The Park that makes this EP great. If the fact that Manson made this disc isn't enough to make you want to run out and buy it, let Down In The Park persuade you into it. I know I probably sound like a cheesy ad, but this is one CD a true Manson fan could never live without.
