Former Limp Bizkit guitarist Wes Borland joined the band for their August headlining show at the 2008 ETP Fest in South Korea , although Borland would quit to reunite with Limp Bizkit after just one other performance . He later said he was reluctant to be a " hired gun " , citing the band 's refusal to record any of the nine songs he submitted for their then-upcoming album . Manson clarified : " There was talk early on about collaborating with different guitar players on the record . That was before Twiggy and I got back together , because once Twiggy was back , there was nobody else , and I do n't care what you have to offer — this was our record . " Manson and Twiggy announced at the 2008 Scream Awards in October that the album was " pretty much done " , and indicated it would sound more like '' Antichrist Superstar '' than the band 's recent material . Manson later described the record as featuring " lots of guitar solos and brutal , reckless screaming " , and as being " very ruthless , heavy and violent " . The album was co-produced by Manson , Twiggy and Vrenna , along with '' Antichrist Superstar '' and '' Mechanical Animals '' co-producer Sean Beavan
