'''''Eat Me, Drink Me''''' is the sixth studio album by [[Marilyn Manson (band)|Marilyn Manson]], released worldwide on June 5, 2007 by [[Interscope Records]]. ''Eat Me, Drink Me'' was recorded from late October 31, 2006 through early February 26, 2007 at a rented home studio in Beverly Hills, California, and in the neighboring Hollywood, California, in collaboration with [[Tim Skold]] who is responsible for composing all music on the album. It was produced by Manson and Skold, and mixed by [[Sean Beavan]]. Since the return of [[Twiggy]], ''Eat Me, Drink Me'' is now completely disregarded during live performances. Only two of the album's eleven songs survived 2007, before "[[If I Was Your Vampire]]" was played for the last time on [[2009/12/21 Paris, France|December 21, 2009]].

''"I feel as if there's more like three albums' worth of material, [because] I don't want to cram a long record into a place that doesn't have the attention span for that... I'd like to return to the old-fashioned records that had eight or nine songs [that] were all very important. Not to say that I made records that had filler material. They were all based around a central idea, and the central idea in this one is my pain and its ability to be unashamed to repeat itself."''

At the same time, it also represents exactly who I am and what I feel... I really wanted to be a singer on this album. This is very earnest and uncalculated and raw, in the sense that I know I'm fucked up, and I'm really not ashamed of it."''

''"This is the record I've worked all my life to get to. You always have to transform, or you can’t continue as an artist, and this record has been the biggest transformation for me... It’s better heard than described... On this record I really wanted to sing, and that has to come from a naked, emotional place. It's not a record about me crying, or songs about my woes, but I think this record will probably speak to more people in different ways, because of its total human element... If I had to do a record review, I’d say it’s got a cannibal, consumption, obsessive, violent-sex, romance angle, but with an upbeat swing to it... The album's title [Eat Me, Drink Me] was also inspired by that story several years back of the German man who put out an ad that he wanted to be eaten, and the man who ate him. Although I can't relate to the relationship those two had, I found the story very compelling in a romantic way."''

The singer also referred to the album as "very guitar-oriented and very melodic", and as featuring "various unconventional forms of percussion". He has also called it a romantic album, whose lyrical content involves "the unfulfilled yearning to be in another time or another place where you feel like you would fit in better".

To promote the album Manson has traveled to France, England and Germany where he has held both press conferences and listening parties. Similar listening parties for journalists and fan club administrators have taken and are planned to take place in other European countries and America. Measures taken to prevent an unauthorized recording or copy of the album leaking have included bag searching and the prohibition of recording devices and mobile phones.

===Recording details===
Manson began his singing on the album in November 2005 but was focused on his film ''[[Phantasmagoria: The Visions of Lewis Carroll|Phantasmagoria]]'', the process of opening an art gallery and personal troubles relating to his marriage. It was after opening the gallery that Manson really began his contribution as a singer by working out melodies and structures around Skold's already existing compositions, writing lyrics quickly and usually recording on the same day. One result of this is that the album features six guitar solos from Tim Skold and many other guitar while bass and keyboards feature much less than on a usual Marilyn Manson release. Sonically the album is predominantly mid-tempo and is said to be Manson's most melodic work to date. Manson has since revealed that he sang most of the album laying down on the studio floor with his hands cupping the studio microphone, resulting in a very distinctive vocal sound.

==Themes==
According to Manson, vampirism is just one of the dark themes running through ''Eat Me, Drink Me''. "If I had to do a record review, I'd say it's got a cannibal, consumption, obsessive, violent-sex, romance angle, but with an upbeat swing to it." Aside from the obvious Lewis Carroll and Jesus Christ references, Manson says the album's title was also inspired by the story of Armin Meiwes, who placed an ad online for a person consenting to be eaten. "Although I can't relate to the relationship those two had, I found the story very compelling in a romantic way. I think a lot of people wouldn't look at it as romantic, but it was to them in some sick way, and it is to me in some sick way, too".
