Timothy Michael Linton (born on June 251969, 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.

Biography

The high point of Linton's music career thus far is his collaboration with Marilyn Manson. Linton was one of 150 people to apply for the guitarist position for Marilyn Manson and one of the only 15 to audition. He was then hired and travelled with the band for the 1996-1997 "Dead To The World" tour. Fans got their first glimpse of Linton during Nothing Records', now notorious showcase called "Nothing Night", that was held in 1996 at the Irving Center in New York. His first video for the band was "The Beautiful People". By using the stage name "Zim Zum", Linton became the first member of Marilyn Manson to not use a stage name that combined a sex symbol's first and a serial killer's last names. According to Jeordie White (Twiggy Ramirez), he got his name from his Dungeons & Dragons character, though Manson has said that the name refers to the Kabbalistic concept of Tzimtzum. Linton contributed to all but two of the tracks on the band's 1998 release the Mechanical Animals. The reasons for his departure were never made clear, Marilyn Manson stated in an interview that Linton was fired for "having too many problems and not enough commitment". Linton was replaced before the Mechanical Animals supporting tour by John 5.
