“After five amazing years playing drums for [Marilyn Manson], I’ve decided to leave the band. It’s been one of the highlights of my career but it’s time for me to pursue other current and future projects. Much love to [Marilyn Manson] and the homies I shared the stage with; [Twiggy Ramirez], [Tyler Bates], [Paul Wiley], [Juan Alderete] and to the fans. It’s been a blast. #marilynmanson #thepaleemperor #heavenupsidedown”
