The seventh studio album by Marilyn Manson is set for recording following the band's Rape of the World tour, which ends on February 25, 2008.
Background information
Initially Manson revealed the recording would take place between March and May 2008, that two Eat Me, Drink Me b-sides may be included, and that he would be working again with Tim Skold, as well as Slayer's Kerry King, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' Nick Zinner and James Iha on the album; a demo of one song was also allegedly recorded, along with written ideas for other potential tracks.
In January 2008, however, it was announced that Tim Skold had departed from the band, coinciding with the return of former bassist Twiggy Ramirez. Manson said in an exclusive interview with The Heirophant that there are plans of recording an album together once the tour is over. Though he is yet to divulge any sonic or thematic details Manson has said that the four-year gap between the release of The Golden Age of Grotesque and it's successor was "a mistake I don't want to repeat in the future." Also, a major device in the reunion with the bassist was the desire of Manson and Ramirez to write music together again; these points almost unanimously mean that the band's seventh studio album will see conception and release.
