I don't think the level of an artist's mainstream success should deter a person from listening to him/her. If you like Marilyn Manson, listen to Marilyn Manson. If you like Nine Inch Nails, listen to Nine Inch Nails. If you like The Cruxshadows, :wumpscut:, KFMDM, or Combichrist, listen to them. Music is music, and it has the potential to be incredibly moving to an individual regardless of how much mainstream exposure said artist has received. Personally, I didn't care for Manson's Eat Me Drink Me, but I like his older stuff. I haven't heard The High End of Low, but if I enjoy it, I'll listen to it alongside Bauhaus, The Cure, Skinny Puppy, VNV Nation, etc.
