Marilyn Manson Premieres "SAY10" on Election Day

[shrubberyhorizon]

I think its "Gash is the poor man's money"

Good pun, but he posted "Cash is the poor man's money" on Instagram.

The first verse is hard, but I caught some lyrics.

Devil’s got a gun
like a slit in a cattle’s hair
Dollar sign snakes
I’m all in the dam
Godless, fearless of the flood
or the blood of the common spring
Something is shedding its scales
crying from the heat of the light
or the empty shell on the stage

AND CASH IS THE POOR MAN’S MONEY

YOU SAY GOD AND I SAY SAY10
YOU SAY GOD AND I SAY SAY10

[Aint]

Well, I certainly didn't anticipate "SAY10" being formally introduced in this manner. Hopefully, the full version of both the song and video will arrive soon.

Manson: My new album SAY10 sounds very different from the pale emperor
Fanbase: Psh, Tyler Bates is working on it and people said TPH was your best album in years. It's not gonna sound that different.
Manson: *introduces title track with hip hop beat and ACSS chorus"
Fanbase: OH, THAT DIFFERENT.

Fuck waking up to that is my second favorite thing to wake up to (the first is being waken up by a blow job ) ,the video and song looks awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Korpz]

Well that was a spectacular treat.

Instant Hard.

Oh, I will stop laughing with delight soon at the absolutely on point timing of this, but mostly what nice use of the media over the last four or so months. The best laid plans of men and Manson - from the introducing the cash at gigs, through to the incremental placement of ideas and imagery across both social and news media.

Beheading is a good choice (aha) here, because it speaks to so many levels from Daesh through to, killing the tyrant, to dismembering a king/leader (all they stand for) .. and then apparently running over the corpse. I just like from this clip the sense of vanquishing as much as anything else. Its almost film noir.

The Biblical page that gets the close focus is (unsurprisingly) Revelations 12 and 13 - which is the throwing of Satan (dragon) from heaven and the second beats rise out of the sea and earth.

.. and then apparently running over the corpse.

Yes, it's strange that so far no one has mentioned the tyre tracks. I wonder if they imply Manson chasing his prey, or that he hit the man first before taking his head? Cars and their journeys have always loomed large in his work, I can't help wonder if there's more in the full video expanding on that image.

For months I've been comparing Arma-Goddamn-Motherfuckin'-Geddon to Trump's campaign, and Manson's 'President Of Whatever' can be seen in his armoured car during that video. There is of course the more prominent links between cars and presidents, the Coma White 'Zapruder' film, and his lyric "Abraham Lincoln towncars arrive to dispose of our King and Queen".

Oh shit, this is good, really good. Really heavy, and veryyyyyy different, amazing how he changes his sound, using a more hip-hop beat, so badass. Lyrics are interesting, and that chorus is... fuck yeah. Can't wait for the full song.
