Marilyn Manson Uncanceled

Between the release of his album One Assassination Under God - Chapter 1 last year and his cover of "In the Air Tonight" this past April, Marilyn Manson has rejuvenated his career with hits in charts around the world. His latest collaboration with Falling in Reverse titled "God Is A Weapon", which was released as a digital download and music video directed by Jensen Noen on May 20, 2025, has continued his streak of hit releases. The song debuted at number 67 on the UK Singles Downloads Chart and at number 70 on the UK Singles Sales Chart. The following week, the song peaked at 58 on the UK Singles Downloads Chart, and at number 61 on the UK Singles Sales Chart, which resulted in the song debuting at number 32 on the UK Rock & Metal Singles Chart.  The song was also successful in the United States, debuting at number 24 on Billboard's Digital Song Sales, number 11 on Hot Hard Rock Songs, number 47 on Hot Rock & Alternative Songs, and number 38 on Mainstr...

48 hours after the release of "God is a Weapon", the music video has garnered 1.5 million views on YouTube and was trending there at #2 for music, while previously in just one day it had hit a million views and at its peak was trending at #4 for all YouTube videos. The song has been trending on all the major streaming services as well. The music video has inspired many reaction videos on YouTube als (most of which are very funny and worth watching at least for the reaction when they realize Marilyn Manson is a part of it), and out of the 20 or so that I saw it was received very positively, primarily because the song is often described as an earworm that is very pleasant to listen to which slowly builds up but doesn't take too long to do so, and the video has cinematic production value, while at the same time the lyrics and symbolism are thought provoking. These are perfect ingredients for a song to be listened to repeatedly. As for Falling in Reverse and their lead singer...

Earlier this year we saw Falling in Reverse frontman Ronnie Radke and Marilyn Manson together in photos at Manson's birthday party then on a separate occasion in Radke's home, which led to rumors that they may be collaborating on a new song. Today that new song, "God is a Weapon", was released to streaming services everywhere along with an accompanying music video through Radke's label Epitaph Records. The song is an instant classic power ballad for the frontmen, which revolves around the line "If God is a woman, then God is a weapon." In the cinematic black and white music video God is played by Radke's girlfriend, frontwoman Dana Dentata. At the end of the video Radke and Dentata share an explosively wet kiss. Aspects of the song and video also seem to be reminiscent of the Mechanical Animals era for Manson. With the music video, Falling in Reverse also announced their God Is a Weapon tour which kicks off this August.   "God is a Weapon"...

On May 15th 2025, Marilyn Manson and his wife Lindsay celebrated their 5th wedding anniversary. They were married on May 15th 2020. This year Manson and Lindsay are on the road for the "One Assassination Under God Tour", so they celebrated their anniversary in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina where Manson would perform later that night. Lindsay also shared some photos and videos in her Instastories of herself and Manson, as well as some words about their relationship over a photo of their first initials drawn in the sands of Myrtle Beach. The next day, May 16th, Lindsay also shared that she is now seven years sober. It should be noted also that two years ago on May 15th it was first announced by Manson that new music was on its way, and last year on May 15th Manson released a teaser video for his forthcoming new album under his new label Nuclear Blast Records. This year he is headlining sold out concerts in the United States.         View this post on Instagram...
