Timothy Michael Linton (born on June 25, 1969, in Chicago) more commonly known as Zim Zum, is an American rock musician/songwriter and former guitarist for Life, Sex & Death and Marilyn Manson (1996-1998). His current projects are Pleistoscene, a solo project, and The Pop Culture Suicides, the latter being his main focus for now.
[edit] Biography
Perhaps, the most famous part of his career thus far is collaborating with Marilyn Manson, after Daisy Berkowitz left the band due to antagonism from the other members, particularly Manson. The guitars on the Antichrist Superstar album were recorded by Daisy Berkowitz and Zim Zum (who played live guitar on "Irresponsible Hate Anthem" for the Antichrist Superstar album) was invited as a live guitar player. After the Dead To The World tour ended, he worked on all of the tracks from Mechanical Animals but two, which were done by John 5, but he shortly departed to pursue solo interests - although Manson himself has claimed he was fired for not attending band practice. The latter of the two reasons is perhaps dubious as Manson has been known to abash band members who have departed - as well as Zim Zum - notably Daisy Berkowitz, Twiggy Ramirez and John 5. Zim was replaced by the latter.
