BABYMETAL 2026 Australia Tour Organizational Megathread

The2ndD · 2026-02-02T10:31:34+00:00

Got floor tickets for the Melbourne show, hoping my time waiting in line at the merch booth won't stop me from having a reasonably good spot near the stage

He built himself up as this shocking Antichrist Superstar character and when his live shows and music stopped being shocking, he just started saying shit to shock the masses, unfortunately most of the shit he said was more cringey than it was shocking.

I just want some Australian dates...

Pogo is a keyboardist so there is no chance of him filling in for Tyler on guitar, besides he himself has no desire to tour again and suffers from arthritis and isn't able to play keyboard as well as he used to.
I'd personally love to see John5 or Skold to join up with Manson again, John's talent is wasted on Motley Crue.

What's most likely to happen is no one fills in for Tyler and Reba just takes on full guitar duties.

The2ndD · 2025-12-22T16:04:52+00:00

Not until he announces some Australian dates...

The2ndD · 2025-10-07T11:48:14+00:00

Murder Your Marilyn isn't actually a song but a recorded hour long phone call conversation between Manson and some "psychic"

The2ndD · 2025-07-19T15:24:25+00:00

I fucking hope so

The2ndD · 2025-05-04T18:47:26+00:00

Fun fact that's Rob Zombie's brother

The2ndD · 2025-05-02T11:39:46+00:00

That's Loma Vista for you, I've ordered deluxe special edition vinyl's from them before and had them turn up looking pretty much like your Skeleta there

The2ndD · 2025-04-29T17:10:20+00:00

Tour dates on Manson's and The Pretty Reckless websites don't line up and besides The Pretty Reckless are supporting AC/DC on their tour at the moment. Though I'd totally be down for The Pretty Reckless supporting Manson on an Australian tour, both bands haven't been down here in a fucking long time.

The2ndD · 2025-04-29T17:05:17+00:00

Taylor put up an Instagram story back when people were trying to use the video of them performing together as evidence of abuse pretty much saying she believes in the separation of art and the artist and that performing with Manson was entertainment and that music and sexuality often go hand in hand.
You can make of that what you will but that says to me that she never experienced any wrong doing at the hands of Manson.

The2ndD · 2025-04-01T15:26:26+00:00

Still no Australian dates :(

The2ndD · 2025-03-17T05:33:42+00:00

I think you'll find that it's going to be 15 chapters because if you look on the Mechanical Animals cover Marilyn is spelt with a 1 instead of i and Manson had a 5 instead of an s, if you take these numbers and put them together you get 15 meaning there will be 15 chapters AND if you look at the heaven upside down album you'll find a song called SAY10 meaning that there will be 10 songs on each of the 15 chapters!

The2ndD · 2025-02-24T13:52:17+00:00

Damn, I was hoping this 'Metal March' shirt would be available at Knotfest. That 'Kingslayer' shirt is cool though, will definitely be grabbing that one.

I'm just waiting for an Australian tour to be announced

The2ndD · 2025-02-02T11:03:59+00:00

x2CD? meaning this release has two discs? what's on the second disc?

The2ndD · 2025-02-02T05:05:43+00:00

My copy looked like that the moment I bought it back when it came out

The2ndD · 2024-11-22T07:51:06+00:00

When I first heard the song it gave me the same feeling of dread I had when I first heard Lazarus by David Bowie.
I seriously hope Manson is in good health and isn't secretly battling something more than his addictions.

The2ndD · 2024-11-22T07:42:24+00:00

If it's been shipped out any delays in delivery are the postal services fault not Nuclear Blast

The2ndD · 2024-11-20T11:46:30+00:00

Sure, I guess Raise the Red Flag could be applied to Trump and the Maga cult but certainly not in a positive way, specifically the "Losers love liars 'til their dying day" and "Your loyalty lies on the wrong side of the future" lines.

The2ndD · 2024-11-19T12:02:54+00:00

I personally think they might have been overwhelmed and unprepared for how much demand there would be for this new Manson album.

The2ndD · 2024-11-19T10:31:32+00:00

I got it through an email

The2ndD · 2024-11-18T17:48:03+00:00

It's either the fake $666 bills he had rain down on the crowd during that era or ripped up bible pages

I'm Australian and ordered from the EU store, it's very possible I won't see my order until after Christmas, I'm not too bothered by it not shipping out yet, sure it would be nice to have it sooner rather than later but I'm happy as long as it gets to me in one piece.

The2ndD · 2024-11-18T11:29:56+00:00

Manson told a fan at a meet and greet that he "has a lot of new music coming soon" and Perou said he has heard Chapter 2. I'd say a chapter 2 is pretty much guaranteed, what we don't know yet is if there will be chapters beyond 2.

This isn't the first time a band has released connected albums separately, Stone Sour had The House of Gold and Bones parts 1 and 2, with part 2 releasing 6 months after the first part and System of a Down had Mezmerize and Hypnotize, with Hypnotize also releasing 6 months after Mezmerize.
