It doesn’t take long to utter the word and number before one realizes the wordplay, and once again Marilyn Manson does/do it again. On November 8th an early morning snippet of the new video for ‘Say10‘ was released, sending fans and non fans alike abuzz. The one-minute-sixteen-second video directed by Tyler Shields contains Brian Hugh Warner sitting in a chair, ripping up a bible, and beheading a man in a suit, whom has been interpreted by most to represent Trump, though the singer himself says the work is open to such interpretation.
Though the video is certainly in Manson style, the goal it seems was to get us all asking questions. Marilyn Manson certainly deliver, with sounds and visuals to strike us to ask them as always. The video is a taste of what’s to come on the new album, the follow up to 2015’s ‘The Pale Emperor‘. Fans will all be waiting to ‘Say10‘ alongside a proper finalized LP and release.
