Background information
On January 2014, Marilyn Manson mentioned the new album in an interview with Kerrang magazine:
“ | HAVE YOU GIVEN ANY THOUGHTS ON HOW YOU’RE GOING TO MARK THE OCCASION?
“It’s going to be quite different from anything I’ve ever done before. I want something that makes me rethink, in the same way that when I had my first show, I made a flyer, I didn’t have any songs written, and thought, ‘What am I going to do now?’ I’m excited to see what it’s gonna be. I want to give people what they want, though there’s a difference between being a chef and a waiter. But I’m not one of those people that goes to a concert and wants to sit through a bunch of new songs from a new album that the artist is enthused about.” |

On February 2014, Gil Sharone posted a photo from studio with Marilyn Manson and producer Tyler Bates.
On April 24, 2014 the first song from the album, "Cupid Carries a Gun", makes a debut on WGN's Salem TV show. [1]
“ | "Manson and I wrote a draft of 'Cupid Carries a Gun' shortly before I began working on the score for Salem," says Bates. "A couple weeks later I saw the title sequence and the song immediately came to mind. I showed it to Manson for fun more than anything, and it inspired us to finish the song that night. The next day I played it for Brannon Braga and he said that 'Cupid Carries a Gun' was the perfect tone and attitude for the show's main titles." | ” |
