Former Limp Bizkit and current Black Light Burns member Wes Borland has joined Marilyn Manson as the group's new guitarist.


Manson said, "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."


As yet it is unclear if the move will be permanent. Manson is in the middle of recording a new album, which is expected to be released sometime next year.
