Marilyn Manson and Rob Zombie kicked off there “Twins of Evil Tour” last week and according to THEPRP, the shock rockers appeared on stage together to perform their cover of the Beatle’s “Helter Skelter”. Watch the video below.
The first “Twins of Evil Tour” was in 2012 and saw Manson and Zombie argue on stage, but the pair behaved like old friends during the performance last week in Detroit. See dates for “Twins of Evil-The Second Coming” below.
Manson’s latest album, Heaven Upside down, came out in October of last year. While touring last fall to promote the new album, Manson was forced to cancel some dates due to injuries sustained during a concert. Manson canceled nine shows after suffering a broken leg from the incident when a stage prop fell on him.
Rob Zombie’s new album The Electric Warlock Acid Witch Satanic Orgy Celebration Dispenser, came out in 2016. Earlier this spring, Loudwire reported that Zombie plans to release both a new movie and a new album in 2019.
The Beatles song “Helter Skelter” appeared on The White Album. Widely considered the loudest and wildest song in The Beatles catalog, it was written as an attempt to prove they could write more than just ballads. Although the song was adopted by Charles Manson as representation of his distorted views of society, the song is about an amusement park ride. Rolling Stone ranked “Helter Skelter at number 52 on its list of “100 Greatest Beatles Songs of All-time.” Several artists have performed covers of the song including U2, Aerosmith, Oasis and Hüsker Dü.
