The band was invited by METALLICA to perform at the Heavy Metal Montreal in Montreal, Quebec, Canada in August 2014 and enjoyed a slot on the Vans Warped Tour last summer.

Manson collaborated on the new album, his first in over two years, with noted film composer/producer Tyler Bates ("Guardians Of The Galaxy", "300", "The Watchmen"). Bates has also joined Manson as a member of his band on the American "The Hell Not Hallelujah Tour", which kicked off January 21 in Washington D.C. Manson's band on the national headlining tour also includes longtime bassist Twiggy Ramirez, Gil Sharone on drums and Paul Wiley on guitar.
