When his voice joins the bass and guitars, it's back to the great old troubled tortured alien of Mechanical Animals – far superior and more earnest than the last album (what was it called again?).

Marilyn Manson Interview with Revolver MagazineĪ blog by Metal Hammer describes "Devour" as "a classic Manson-esque 'noise' track – super 8 running a loop or something. If somebody says they want to be with you until they die, I take that kind of seriously. The record maybe saved me, and the person I would have killed also. "It's kind of murder-suicide story based on the reality of my like that day. In a 2009 interview with Shockhound,he revealed the "would be" tragedy, explaining the situation with mild detail, quoting that he had said "I'm going to kill you first, because I don't trust you."

Manson touched on the song's inspiration and subject matter briefly in a June 2009 interview with Revolver: "It's kind of a murder-suicide story based on the reality of my life that day.
Former roommate of vocalist Marilyn Manson, Rudy Coby, explains that the song was written after an event where, "my room covered in real blood-none of it my own-and I was driven to an emergency room for the first time in my life."
