Marilyn Manson announces the Antichrist Superstar 30th anniversary edition

Marilyn Manson announces the Antichrist Superstar 30th anniversary edition

On October 14, 2026, Marilyn Manson announced a 30th anniversary edition of the platinum album Antichrist Superstar. It is a remaster in gatefold packaging, with a 24-page book of previously unreleased photographs, handwritten lyrics, and sketches from that era. Waxwork is releasing it on vinyl and cassette. January 15, 2027, is the expected date, and the report marks it as tentative.

“It’s been 30 years since I carved open the American dream and pulled out Antichrist Superstar in all its vitriolic glory. For us true believers that scar never healed and it became folklore for a culture that forgot what real danger sounded like. I am here to remind everyone.”

The same evening, the tour opened at The Fillmore in New Orleans, the city where the album was recorded in 1996. The set was built around the record, but it did not follow the original running order. Next-day reports say Kinderfeld, Deformography, Minute Of Decay, and Apple Of Sodom were played for the first time since 1997. The stage brought back the pulpit and the stilts.

The announced run continues with a second New Orleans show on October 15, San Antonio’s Aztec Theatre on October 17 and 18, Emo’s in Austin on October 21 and 22, and The Wiltern in Los Angeles on October 31 and November 1.
