Marilyn Manson Uncanceled

Marilyn Manson announced on his Instagram page today (February 17, 2026) the return of Tim Skold to the band following last months departure of Tyler Bates. He did this with two photos of him and Skold together, captioning one with the anticipated announcement: "We are the things of shapes to come. MM + TS." According to the dictionary, "If you say that something is the shape of things to come, you mean that it is the start of a new trend or development, and in the future things will be like this." Tim Skold likewise posted the photo on his Instagram page, after wiping out everything else, including those who he follows, choosing to follow only Marilyn Manson. This indicates that he is all in on his return to the band. Skold was a pivotal member of the band from 2002 to 2008, serving as producer, bassist, and guitarist. He was the primary collaborator on the albums The Golden Age of Grotesque and Eat Me, Drink Me . Tim Skold has been one of Marilyn Manson's mos...

On January 30, 2026, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) released a massive, and likely final, batch of files related to the investigations into Jeffrey Epstein, totaling over 3 million pages, 2,000 videos, and 180,000 images.  This release was mandated by the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which was passed by Congress and signed into law by President Trump in November 2025, requiring the DOJ to produce its files related to the late sex offender and Ghislaine Maxwell.   Together with the Epstein files, which strictly are files obtained from Jeffrey Epstein himself, and in which Marilyn Manson is never mentioned as having any sort of association with Epstein, the DOJ included a number of separate documents that consist of "anonymous tips." It is a document in one of these anonymous tips that the name Marilyn Manson can be found, in document EFTA00154698. In the context of document EFTA00154698, an "anonymous tip" refers to information submitted by a member of the p...

In “On Intimacy: A GATA Interview with Lindsay Elizabeth Warner,” GATA Magazine sits down with photographer Lindsay Elizabeth Warner to explore the emotional and aesthetic forces that shape her work and daily life. Known for creating images that blur the boundary between personal narrative and atmospheric poise, Warner discusses how love — particularly her creative partnership with her husband, Marilyn Manson — informs her artistic vision, the small rituals that ground her, and her fascination with quiet, unguarded moments that reveal deeper truths about presence and connection.

On February 5th 2026, Dodge released a new commercial on their YouTube channel for their Next-Gen Dodge Charger Scat Pack, the "World's Fastest AWD Muscle Car," choosing as a soundtrack for their Misfit campaign Marilyn Manson's cover of the Phil Collins song "In The Air Tonight."    Previously the Manson's cover song “Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)” was used in a 2006 Fiat Grande Punto commercial.  

On February 5th 2026 marks five successful years of sobriety for Marilyn Manson. He celebrated this truly praiseworthy achievement by posting about it on his social media pages. The first post is the photo at the top of this post, taken by his wife Lindsay Warner, which Manson captioned with "Front Toward Your Enemy." This caption reminds us of the song "Front Toward Enemy" released by Manson in September 2024 as a B-Side from the "Raise the Red Flag" Maxi-CD Single, which some speculate will be on his next album. I wrote an analysis of this song and was provided with the official lyrics back in September 2024, where I associated the song with Manson's recent struggles, including the fight for his sobriety. The second post came from Lindsay, who reposted the same photo Manson posted in her Instastories, where she wrote: "Immeasurably proud of the man you are, and the life you’ve chosen to live.” The third and final post about this from Manson is ...

Almost five years to the day when Evan Rachel Wood came out on Instagram and named Marilyn Manson as her abuser, she released her first solo EP under the pseudonym Lenore Pink. The EP, released today (2/4/26) on Spotify and Apple and can be heard also on her YouTube channel, consists of three songs, which she says she has worked on for a number of years and is finally now releasing during this time in her career when she decided to take a break from acting. With the release of this EP she also did an interview on the American Songwriter channel , where she mostly talks about her current life and breaks down how the new EP came together. In this interview, Evan continues her streak of never referring to her 12 year old as a son, but awkwardly struggles to call him "kid", "they", "them", "people", "person". Jaime Bell however has no problem calling Jack his son. As for the name Lenore Pink, Evan said i n an interview back in August that s...
