Any NIN fans around?

I think Trent Reznor is doing great things for music, and I snagged tickets for the 9/23 show in Seattle, WA.

Any thoughts, comments, favorite songs??

right here! i love NIN, my gf got me thier new album and im getting it on christmas :drool: cant wait...i hear the song "all the love in the world" and i really like it...of course i like thier older stuff too

I don't care for their newer stuff much, the new album was a let down after growing up with Pretty Hate Machine to The Fragile. All of which fucking rocked. But I've been listening to them forever. =)

yea growing up to the downward spiral myself, the newer stuff is a rather big change

Definitely. I was sorely disappointed, but I won't say it was a bad album, just not what I expected nor wanted.

eh well you have to learn to adapt to new things sometime or just move on

I picked up 'Downward' at the start of summer. I though that "Closer" really seemed out of place though, but still a good album along with packaging.

Naw, I think it fits. =) That song has good memories...

i really loved thier remake of jhonny cashes "hurt" great song

...That was NIN's song first. Cash remade it my friend.

hows that when jhonnys version came out first? O_O at least thats what i thought

:wtf: No...Cash's came out less than a year before he died. NIN came out with that song on Downward Spiral in 1994.

oh well... ok then lol

=P Don't worry, I'm a walking encyclopedia of information. Heh.

haha well if i ever need to know something i'll be sure to find you and ask

Going back to "Closer", it seems out of place given the dismal nature of the album and this song just breaks up the flow. I think part of it to is the song has become mythic.

I think the radio edit is better becasue its so much more of tease, a build up to hear the full chorus.

Closer just throws the sexual tension into the album, and he drops you the rest of the way. Because most of the "downer" songs are after that. I think it fits. I think it's The Fragile where he really attacks you emotionally. He breaks you down in TDS and finishes it with TF.

i agree, big man with a gun or whatever the song was cmae close the end of the song, most of the sexual tension came at that point and continued a few times after

Oh yeah. That song kicks ass too. And Reptile fits right in afterwards.

reptile was a really good song

*nods* Another of my favorites. I still think The Fragile is my favorite though... Somewhat Damaged, We're In This Together, Starfuckers Inc., Someplace Warm, oh man...*falls asleep to Trent*

i really like the new song all the love in the world like i said ealier.. ^-^ i cant stop listening to it

(edit) they recently had a concert here in oklahoma... i dident get to go but my friend tyler did and he said it kicked ass...he went all out for oklahoma by playing only in a different way..like the song was pretty much all different except the words
