Marilyn Manson - One Assassination Under God - Chapter 1
It released a little over a month ago and I've been listening to it a lot since then. It's definitely one of his best, and my overall favorite album of 2024 (not there were a lot of good ones to pick from this year).

EPIC: The Musical
The final saga - "The Ithaca Saga" - was released on YouTube on Christmas Day; meaning we now have the complete musical soundtrack with all 40 songs.
For those who don't know, it's a musical loosely based on Homer's The Odyssey - beginning at the end of the 10 year long Trojan War, with the Greek Soldiers about to leave the Trojan Horse in order to sack Troy, before following Odysseus on his 10 year journey home.
This decade-long journey pits the King of Ithaca against various monsters, Gods, his own crew and himself as he strives to return to his kingdom and reunite with his wife Penelope and their son Telemachus - who was only a baby when Odysseus initially left Ithaca to join the war against Troy. Furthermore, Telemachus, as a young man, has to contend with various suitors who are determined to find a way to gain his mother's hand and become the new King of Ithaca; one way or another...
(If you are interested in listening to this musical, be aware that there will be many songs where the part of the story they're telling will shock/anger/upset you - hence why I'm not leaving a direct link to the musical as it's up to you if you wish to listen to it. Basically, this is a warning so you're a bit more aware of what to expect).

Jekyll And Hyde - The Gothic Musical Thriller: The Complete Work (1994)
I can't post the full album here as some of the songs have some swear words in them (the kind banned by this forum) and some of the songs have more mature themes, but the album is definitely a good one to listen to if you seek to listen to it - with special mention to Anthony Warlow for his brilliant performance as both Henry Jekyll and Edward Hyde.
The album does differ from the original story, with Jekyll's formula in this version (rather than him wanting using it to deliberately create a separate identity to indulge his forbidden desires without fear of reprisal, as he did in the book) is instead a result of him trying to separate the evil side of humanity from its good side in order to help save lives and advance/improve humanity - having to use himself as the subject of his experiment after his request for a human subject to test his formula upon is rejected, with tragic consequences.
To quote the opening song, Prologue, "In each of us there are two natures. If this primitive duality of man - good and evil - can be housed in separate identities, life will be relieved of all that is unbearable...it is the curse of mankind that these polar twins should be constantly struggling".
Here's some of the songs that are okay to play here:
Take Me as I Am (sung by Henry Jekyll and Lisa Carew, his wife-to-be, at their engagement party)
This is the Moment (Sung by Henry Jekyll when he decides to use himself as the subject of the experiment; believing that this will be his "greatest moment")
Transformation (Henry Jekyll tries his formula while still maintaining his optimistic view, until the reality of the situation emerges painfully)
Alive (Edward Hyde - now "free" - sings about feeling alive; growing more ecstatic and confident as he experiences the world around him)
The World Has Gone Insane (Some time after his first transformation and following failed attempts to contain his "other half", Henry Jekyll has a horrific nightmare that ends with him becoming Edward Hyde without the formula.
