Trent Reznor denounces Marilyn Manson Photo: Catherine McGann (Getty Images) Trent Reznor has issued a new statement today, reminding readers that, although the two artists were heavily involved with each other in the 1990s—with Reznor producing or co-producing Marilyn Manson’s first major albums, Portrait Of An American Family and Antichrist Superstar—he and performer Brian “Marilyn Manson” Warner have been estranged from each other ever since: in Reznor’s words, “I cut ties with him nearly 25 years ago.” This is per The Long Hard Road Out Of Hell, in which he alleges that he and Reznor sexually assaulted a woman together in the mid-’90s.
