MARILYN MANSON AND SLAYER ARE BFF

I really did think that Marilyn Manson and Slayer’s Kerry King would start talking shit about one another at some point during their tour together, but I guess they found a couple of things they have in common: they both hate Jesus, or at least pretend to hate him for media attention, and they both pride themselves on being evil. So I guess they managed to see past the fact that one is more or less a known homophobe and the other wears make-up.

ANYWAY, here’s footage of King playing guitar for Manson during a rendition of the latter’s “Irresponsible Hate Anthem” in LA this past Saturday night. I would have liked to see Manson try his hand at “Angel of Death” – I don’t think he could do any worse than Araya at this point – but I have to wonder if this will lead to a full-on cash-in guest spot on Manson’s next album. King hasn’t done one of those since that song with Sum 41 or Blink 182 or Matchbox 20 or whoever the fuck it was for Spider Man, so he’s due.
