Marilyn Manson has dropped the video for his cover of "God's Gonna Cut You Down," and the video is just as haunting as his sung vocals.
The black-and-white clip below was directed by Tim Mattia, while the cover itself was originally featured on the soundtrack to the 2017 film 24 Hours to Live starring Ethan Hawke and the late Rutger Hauer.
"God's Gonna Cut You Down" is a traditional folk song that been covered by countless artists, but Johnny Cash's cover featured on the 2006 posthumously released American V: A Hundred Highways is the most popular version.
Manson's cover is available for streaming and for download here, while a limited edition picture disc is available for pre-order at LomaVistaRecordings.com.
