Marilyn Manson has shared a cryptic image on his Instagram account that could be a hint that a new full-length album is on the way.
The image of a frequency wave is accompanied by a Latin phrase and some curious hashtags. The caption “Omnes surdus es et nunc audite me…” roughly translates to “All deaf and now you hear me,” which could be a clue about new music.
Meanwhile, the hashtags #2020 and #youhavenoideawhatiscoming also possibly point the way toward new music, but just to throw us a curveball, Manson has also included the tags #antichristsuperstar and #blacksabbathbornagain. The former refers to his 1996 breakthrough album while the latter was Black Sabbath's 11th studio LP.
A new Manson record would be his 11th as well, following 2017’s Heaven Upside Down.
Marilyn Manson has reportedly spent much of the past year collaborating with country rocker Shooter Jennings on his new studio album, although a title and release date have remained elusive.
