MARILYN MANSON Opens A New Chapter With Haunting New Single ‘Exit Wound’


MARILYN MANSON has unveiled “Exit Wound,” the first single from his upcoming album One Assassination Under God – Chapter 2, due out August 14, 2026 via Nuclear Blast Records. Serving as the opening statement for the next phase of the One Assassination Under God saga, the track delivers a dark and emotionally charged glimpse into the world that awaits on Manson’s thirteenth studio album.

Built around brooding melodies, haunting atmosphere, and the unmistakable chemistry between Manson and longtime collaborator Tyler Bates, “Exit Wound” balances vulnerability with menace. The song leans into the gothic and alternative rock elements that have become increasingly prominent in Manson’s recent work, creating a sound that feels both familiar and freshly sharpened.

Lyrically, “Exit Wound” explores themes of blame, public scrutiny, and emotional devastation, painting a bleak portrait of a world consumed by judgment and spectacle. Rather than relying on shock value alone, the track channels its darkness through introspective songwriting and cinematic tension, allowing its emotional weight to resonate long after the final chorus fades.

With One Assassination Under God – Chapter 2 set for release on August 14, “Exit Wound” serves as a compelling introduction to the album’s next chapter. Atmospheric, unsettling, and deeply immersive, the single finds MARILYN MANSON continuing to evolve while remaining firmly rooted in the dark artistic vision that has defined his career for decades.
