Five Finger Death Punch’s Zoltan Bathory Affirms Marilyn Manson’s Sobriety Ahead Of Comeback Tour - @thebeast

In a surprising turn of events, Marilyn Manson is set to make his return to the stage this summer, marking his first live appearances since 2019. The controversial artist will be joining Five Finger Death Punch on a North American tour, accompanied by Russian deathcore band Slaughter To Prevail.

Despite Manson's absence from touring since early 2020, his presence in the music industry remains formidable, as indicated by his Spotify play stats, boasting over 7 million monthly listeners. This enduring popularity suggests a significant anticipation for his return to live performances.

In a recent interview on ‘The Jesea Lee Show,’ Five Finger Death Punch guitarist Zoltan Bathory addressed the decision to include Manson on the tour lineup. Bathory emphasized Manson's iconic status and the widespread interest in witnessing his return to the stage. Moreover, Bathory expressed support for Manson's journey towards sobriety, highlighting the importance of providing encouragement to those battling similar struggles.

Bathory drew parallels between Manson's journey to sobriety and that of Five Finger Death Punch's own vocalist, Ivan Moody, who overcame his own personal demons to achieve six years of sobriety. Bathory emphasized the significance of such recoveries as beacons of hope for those grappling with similar challenges.
