"Dope Hat" |
"Dope Hat" is a song by American rock band Marilyn Manson. It was released as the promotional single from their debut album, Portrait of an American Family. It was first recorded for a demo tape released in 1992, entitled The Family Jams.
The song was remixed on the band's 1995 EP, Smells Like Children, under the titles of "Diary of a Dope Fiend" (reference to the Diary of a Drug Fiend by Aleister Crowley) (a re-record) and "Dance of the Dope Hats" (a faster and more synthesized version). The music video was inspired by Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, particularly the Wondrous Boat Ride scene.
