Keeping things as creepy as ever, Marilyn Manson is submerging us in a faith-exploring set of visuals supporting the latest single from his The Pale Emperor, "The Mephistopheles of Los Angeles."

The black and white video, as you'll discover, is scored by another of Manson's gloom-glam romps. As far as the narrative goes, it finds the chalky, gold-toothed rocker playing a street-level preacher taking a gang of misfits under his wing.

While the faithful willingly get dipped in dirty baptismal tubs, there's still something about the steely-eyed Manson that leaves us uncomfortable with the idea of him pushing us beneath the water.

You'll see how his devotees fare via the video player down below.
