Borland Joins Marilyn Manson

2008-08-15 by Dave de Sylvia EMERITUS | 21 Comments
Former Limp Bizkit and From First To Last guitarist Wes Borland has joined the Marilyn Manson band, Manson announced in an interview yesterday.

Said Manson: "We have a new guitar player that's gonna play for the first time tomorrow; it's the first time we'll play on stage [together]. His name is Wes Borland and he used to be in a really terrible band that he left because he felt that it was a destructive force in art, and he has his own band, Black Light Burns, but now he is in Marilyn Manson. We don't know how permanent that is, but starting tomorrow will be the first step. So this will be the most indestructible Marilyn Manson."

Borland responded: "I am joining Marilyn Manson for the time being, but as I said before, Black Light Burns is still going strong and I have no problem operating in two bands. Marilyn Manson is playing a show here in Korea, where I am now, in about 8 hours and then I'm on the way back home to start doing some guitars with Nick on the next Black Light Burns record."

^But he is good...


"he used to be in a really terrible band that he left because he felt that it was a destructive force in art," Limp Bizkit or FFTL?

tbh this won't change much. I wonder what his new name will be.

I always thought he was about as average as they get.

Everyone used to go on about how "Borland was the only talented one" in Limp Bizkit but they never really had anything to back it up with. I'm not saying he's a bad guitarist just saying people let nostalgia get the better of him and because he's the second most instantly recognizable member of Bizkit but much less of a douchebag than Durst he always gets a little more of a benefit of a doubt than he should.

Limp Bizkit's bassist was pretty decent from the little I can remember.

the three instrumentalists in limp bizkit were pretty good actually (the dj was kinda pointless and durst is a fucking abomination). i always thought they shoulda kicked out durst and lethal and got either denis lyxzen or walter schreifels after they left their respective bands. that would've kicked ass.

John Otto was very impressive in Limp Bizkit's older stuff but I would really like to hear him in his jazz days.

So I just listened to a few Black Light Burns tracks out of curiosity and I laughed. Hard. It's like if Powerman 5000 met up with an Orgy cover band and just stopped trying. Wow.

their "Faith" cover was so piss easy on a Fender.
it's one damn chord through the whole song!
Rap Metal is easy as hell to play.
