[18:26] According to a Mayhem Festival Press Release, the new Manson record is set to drop sometime in May. No confirmation from Manson or Interscope as yet, but since the band will be heading out on tour in June, a May release makes perfect sense.

For more info on the festival, check out the official website here. Presumably more Euro dates will be added.

No official confirmation from the Manson camp (or from Slayer's, for that matter), but I'd say this is pretty much a go. Don't have any ticket info yet, but as always, I will list it on the tour page as soon as I have it.
[16:17] Read a review of the "I'm Outta Time" remix here.
[11:40] More updates on the Manson record...
Rudy Coby posted a blog yesterday revealing the title of the first track to be "Devour". Read all of what he has to say here. Be sure to read the replies for even more info.
Then there's this quote, taken from one of his replies to his January 5 blog:
"And, did I mention what a God Twiggy is on this album? Well, I just did."
'nuff said.
[15:25] While searching around for live performance stuff to add to the site's new youtube page, I came across some footage dating back to April 2002, when Jeordie, Josh Homme, Dave Ghrohl and Dave Catching got together to perform a one-off show with Nick Oliveri's Mondo Generator at the Troubadour nightclub in Los Angeles. First time I've ever seen any footage from this performance, and I thought I'd share it here for the benefit of anyone else who may not have seen it. Enjoy "Ode to Clarissa". (Jeordie's the guy in the suit and monkey mask).
[13:10] The Media page has been updated with links to the following: Nardwuar's December 2005 interview with Jeordie and Aaron North and a July 2007 Camp Freddy Radio Show on which Jeordie was a guest. In related news, this website now has its own page on youtube. This will be used as a place to archive videos from all over the internet, material I don't have on the Media page � interviews, live footage, etc. � into one convenient location. It's a work in progress and if you come across something you think should be added, send it to me. There isn't any exclusive/original video footage on the page at this point, but should I ever have anything of that nature in the future, that's probably where it will go.
[06:53] Been looking for a reason to get excited about the upcoming Manson record? Here you go:
"Without giving anything away - (I'm a Magician, after all, and keeping Secrets to someone who trusts me is my bond) - I'd say what stands out is how fucking raw and heart-felt the lyrics are on this one. Blood oozes out of the speakers on this one. Twiggy being back and allowed to fucking go crazy is a revelation - everything he absorbed being in A Perfect Circle or NIN but was held back from doing is laid bare here."
This is a quote from a myspace blog posted by magician Rudy Coby, a long time friend of the Manson camp who has had the privilege of hearing the new record several times. You can read the rest of what he has to say on the subject here. You'll need to scroll down a bit, as his description of the album actually appears in one of his replies to a fan.
Even if you have never been a fan of Marilyn Manson, the fact that Jeordie has obviously been pouring so much of himself into this record over the last several months should be enough of a reason to know it's not gonna suck. I have a feeling you won't be disappointed by giving this one a chance!
