Following accusations of sexual violence and harassment brought by Evan Rachel Wood and five other women, Marilyn Manson sees her streaming results explode.

Listenings to his songs jumped 7% last week, according to Billboard, while digital sales of his albums increased 40%.

Nonetheless,

Don't Chase The Dead

, the artist's latest single, dropped out of the Billboard rock charts after spending 12 weeks there, ending its run in 34th position.

"Screwed up"

Since the first accusations launched by Evan Rachel Wood at the beginning of the month, the revelations, each more sordid than the other, accumulate against Marilyn Manson, ranging from sexual and psychological violence to anti-Semitic comments.

Moreover, an increasingly cloudy portrait of the artist emerges as languages ​​loosen among his former collaborators.

These include guitarist Wes Borland, who accompanied the singer between 2008 and 2009, and who did not mince his words during a passage on the Twitch channel

Space Zebra Live

.

“This guy is incredibly talented, and also completely screwed up.

He needs to be treated, to become sober and to face his demons ”, he affirmed while saying that he is convinced of the veracity of the accusations made against him.

In addition, Marilyn Manson was let go by her label, Loma Vista, as well as by her manager.

His appearances were deleted in American Gods as well as Creepshow.

For his part, the musician denied the facts in a press release, speaking of “horrible distortions of reality” and ensuring that his past relations have always been “entirely consensual”.
