Shock-rock band Marilyn Manson's second legitimate album, released in 1996. Many count it as the third, when they include his Smells Like Children remix EP.
The album includes three main singles, "The Beautiful People", "Tourniquet" and "The Man That You Fear", and is considered a "concept album", in a three-part storyline about an abused and apathetic character, the Worm, who becomes a big rock star and finally becomes the Almighty Disentegrator.
The album is a cyclical, as both opening and closing seconds include the distorted phrase "When you are suffering, know that I have betrayed you." When the album is placed on loop, the pacing between the sentences matches that of the additional distorted recitation found in the preceding hidden track.
CD CASE:
It has elaborate packaging, consisting of a black cardstock sleeve covering the plastic jewel case with graphics of Manson on both the front and back, the latter of which is flanked by the red Superstar Shock logo and the roman numerals IX, VI, III and VII. The booklet contains pictures of the band, a visual worm-to-angel metamorphosis, symbols related to the Kabbalah, medical diagrams, printed lyrics to each song, and liner notes including traditional thanks and credits as well as a curious entry found under the lyrics to the song "Irresponsible Hate Anthem", stating it was recorded live on February 14, 1997, despite the album being released well before that in October of 1996.

Antichrist Superstar is an epic rock opera / concept album about a nobody called "The Worm" who transforms himself from a self-abusive demagogue into an apocalyptic Nietzschean ubermensch. How fucking epic is that?

A fictional dictatorship ruled by Nelo Angelo or the "AntiChrist". The people base their believes into Neloism. People are turned into believing that the gods are selfish and evil and that they are responsible for things like pain, suffering and war. Members wear a AntiCross armband and higher-ups get to wear a special black coat.

The Internet Antichrist was a title originally assigned to the player Snax upon completion of 666 hours logged on steam for the game Blacklight Retribution. He was banned shortly after for calling the BLR forum admin a kike amongst a list of complaints from literally a hundred plus other in-game users.
The term has since been used as a title for "Master Fuckery," aka people who have exceptional skill in mentally obliterating their competition.

John was raging so hard during that LoL match you'd think he was arguing with the Internet Antichrist.

This word is used to troll UN (United Nations) blue heads (peacekeepers) to make them trigger easily. Basically Antichrist is Jesus Christ for UN and if you disrespect Antichrist, they will try to find your location and send peacekeepers to your location.
Michael: I hate Antichrist
UN Delta team: Delta, it's Delta we found the location of the person that said "I hate Antichrist". Sending location to Bravo team, copy.
UN Bravo team: Affirmative, we got the location of the target, sending "peacekeepers" to the work, copy.
UN Delta team: Roger that.
