yes... it was the well textured ambient instrumental type stuff that made the fragile so bloody good.... i was really hoping that he'd release an even more experimental album this time around...

my favorite ever NIN track is "Happiness In Slaver (version)"
that's instrumental, and fucking amazing
and it's followed VERY closely by "Screaming Slave".........very ATR'ish (i reckon so anyways)

i agree that a lot of his lyrics are kinda lame. melodramatic angst. and his voice isn't always that great. but he more than makes up for it with the music and production.
but heck. that angst is probably why i like NIN so much as a teenager, young and brimming with angst.

plus, NIN was definitely a gateway for me to discover a lot of other good music. actually i probably wouldn't have listened to Skinny PUppy if Trent hadn't mentioned them in a interview.

For Tibbar and Pantalaimon to discuss, here are some choice lyrics from The Fragile:
Sometimes I have everything/ Yet I wish I felt something
Underneath it all/ We feel so small/ The Heavens fall / But still we crawl.
Pleading and/ Needing and/ Bleeding and/ Breeding and/ Feeding/ Exceeding
Now everything is clear/ I can erase the fear/ I can disapper
Not to mention Starfuckers Inc. *winces*

funnily you should mention that
i dunno if you know or not, but the developing team were heavy NIN listeners, especially during the coding of DOOM
that's why they got El-Rezzo in on doing the Quake soundtrack

Pantalaimon: I agree. I listened to that song after my dog was put down when I was a sophomore in high school. Can't listen to it now, get too sad.
ZT: Chris Vrenna has helped the NIN crew out for a while. Mostly noted for his remixes.

ahhhh i see what sample you mean..i don't think it is though...
somethig just isn't right for it to be a demon from DOOM
i could be wrong, it's perfectly plausable that he's fucked with it, but it does have an air of a DOOM demon about it......
well spotted though, i never really noticed that before!

well, it's debatable about the music side
all i know it as, is that Chris was a college friend of Trent's, and i think Chris helped with engineering at the studio for his stuff
musically though, as far as i know, it's all trent
you're totally right about the live stuff though
and it really pisses me off when some 12 year old girl, who listens to NIN because she fancies him or something refuses to believe that it's ONE FUCKING GUY! not a band!
