falling in reverse have had a huge week of announcements and releases, with a new single featuring the infamous shock rocker marilyn manson, a north american tour (including canada and the united states,) and their website crashing due to the influx of fans trying to get their hands on f.i.r's merch drop.

falling in reverse are notoriously divisive in a crowd, however, you cannot deny that they have a loyal fan base.



the god is a weapon north American tour kicks off on August 10th in Denver, colorado and finishes up on the 26th of September in Las Vegas, Nevada. while the tour has been announced with slaughter to prevail, wage war, Hollywood undead, tech n9ne, sleep theory and point north as support acts, you will not find them at all locations, so follow the key below to find out who your support artists will be.




My sinful confession

You're my obsession (yeah)

If God is a woman

Then God is a weapon (yeah)



'god is a weapon' was released on the 20th of May. Ronnie and Manson's voice work in such a cohesive way during this song that Ronnie seems to almost take on characteristics of manson. while Ronnie sings from a place of hope and affection, Manson sings from the experience of hurt and betrayal, giving a full spectrum look at the lyrics.



I can't stop from spinning

Down the rabbit hole

The deeper that you push

The deeper I will go

They said that God's a woman

I'll worship you the same

Cause all I do is think about

Saying your name in vain

You might as well marry me




the song begins with melodic and hypnotizing instruments and while it is a slow build, and feels akin more to a Marilyn Manson song than a falling in reverse track, which honestly I am not mad about, it moves into ronnie's more operatic vocals and growls by the end of the song, giving a unique blend of both bands styles.



I can't stop from sinning

My halo's just a hole

The deeper that I get inside you

The deeper you will fall

They say that God's a weapon

Well, I'm a hand grenade

Try to take this ring from me

Watch me detonate

You might as well bury me



while the video seems more like an artistic concept than a story, there is a cool throw back to manson's mechanical animals album, with dana dentata dressed as the infamous character.
