Shock rocker Marilyn Manson has shared a new track titled "Cupid Carries A Gun" from his upcoming studio album The Pale Emperor, which you can check out below. According to Blabbermouth, the track originally appeared on the television series Salem back in April 2014, but has just now been made available for streaming on YouTube and Spotify. As can be expected from Manson (and from a song that appeared on a show about witch trials), it's a pretty gothic, doomy track with some industrial elements, though it's not nearly as heavy as the songs Manson wrote during his '90s heydey.
"I liked the themes of Salem," Manson told The Hollywood Reporter about why he wrote the song for the series. "It looks at the witch trials without being clichéd like most modern films." "Cupid Carries A Gun" was reportedly the last track to be finished for The Pale Emperor.
