Marilyn Manson's new video finds the singer in familiar horror climates, as the vampiric head-honcho of a gang who sacrifices a young woman. Check it out below
'The Mephistopheles of Los Angeles' is taken from Marilyn Manson's brilliant latest album The Pale Emperor. The video follows the iconic Anti-Christ Superstar as he becomes a leader of a gang holding some sort of vampiric ritual in the streets of Los Angeles, which sees him sacrificing a woman in a water-filled coffin.
The video was directed by Francesco Carrozzini, who has bought his cinematic vision to videos for Lana Del Rey's 'Ultraviolence', Beyonce's 'Jealous' and Sia's 'Fire Meet Gasoline'.
