Heaven Upside Down is the tenth studio album by American rock band
Marilyn Manson, released on October 6, 2017. The record was initially
scheduled to be issued on Valentine's Day, but was delayed by the death
of the father of lead singer Marilyn Manson (pictured). It features many
of the musicians who performed on previous album The Pale Emperor,
including producer Tyler Bates. "We Know Where You Fucking Live" and
"Kill4Me" were issued as singles; the latter was their highest-peaking
entry on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Chart. Music videos for the album
featured Johnny Depp, Courtney Love, and Lisa Marie Presley. The record
received positive reviews, with multiple publications saying it
continued a creative resurgence that began with The Pale Emperor. It was
also a commercial success, debuting in the top ten of the
Billboard 200. To promote the album, the band embarked on the Heaven
Upside Down Tour as well as two co-headlining tours with Rob Zombie.
