Marilyn Manson has revealed a brand new track 'Cupid Carries a Gun', which features on new series Salem. Listen below.
The new programme from WGN America focuses on the infamous witch trials in the Massachusetts town of the same name. It premiered last Sunday 20 April with the opening credits featuring a calvacade of creepy visuals, all soundtracked by none other than Marilyn Manson himself.

"The song 'Cupid Carries a Gun' was the last track we just finished for my new album," Manson says of the song. "The occult and witchcraft [are] so often used in cinema with a heinous disregard for even researching its origins. However, I liked the themes of Salem. It looks at the witch trials without being cliche like most modern films."
The song sounds right in line with Manson's ideals and is very similar in pace and tone to 'Beautiful People'. Also it was contributed to by Salem's composer Tyler Bates, who horror fans will note also worked on Rob Zombie's Devil's Rejects.
