September 2000

Okay, I know some of you are going to our website these days and thinking, "What the Hell is this? Has NY Rock become completely depraved?" The truth is our mental health has never been better. We're skipping through the streets saying hello to complete strangers. We have a collective glow of happiness like we just swallowed a goddamn pound of Uranium. I, myself, haven't taken a Zoloft in weeks.

As for the cover, that's not just any devil worshipper, that's Marilyn Manson. And he made us do it. He walked into our office and said, "Put me on your damn cover or you'll be eating locusts for weeks." Our heads stopped glowing for, like, a whole day. Anyway, if you're interested in more than Marilyn's rather pasty white face, other content this month includes...
