Though not particularly esoteric or heavy symbolism, the primary 'Eat Me, Drink Me' Marilyn Manson logo (as opposed to a symbol denoting the themes of the album/era, such as the Mad Love heart signet) were two blood dripping fang-like M's to represent the initials of the band. Fairly self explanatory in representation, and included here for the sake of being all-inclusive, the dripping red M's are nonetheless an iconic logo in themselves and work effectively in illustrating the many vampiric themes of the album. Vampire references which range from the metaphorical devouring of Christ in the New Testament, the connotations of David Bowie's role in the fatal-romantic vampire film The Hunger, to as obvious as Manson's celebrity status as the modern day Dracula or vampiric demagogue in pop culture today.
The 'Eat Me, Drink Me' bloodied fangs logo which hung in front of the stage before each performance of the band's 2007-2008 'Rape of the World' tour. The 2007 leg of which began with Manson singing the album's gothic anthem 'If I Was Your Vampire', where the curtain would fall to reveal the band amidst the ornate gothic stage decor of fog and candelabras.
