i went to see nine inch nails in chi-town last night....here is my review: I arrive way too early in The Dresden Drama Fags' set to hear a howling man with face paint playing the piano accompanied by another face-painted man on the drums. It was like the insane clown posse on piano. Anyway, their set was almost over when the howling man took a moment to thank Trent, and I realized that it was a howling premenstrual woman. Nine inch nails took the stage, silently. And they continued, just about silently, through The Wretched, as their opening piece. Trent wore a school girl's blouse. Anyhow, they were oblivious to their silence because apparantly their monitors were working just fine. They looked like idiots. Someone must have clued them in because they ran off the stage in embarassment for about 20 minutes until the technical difficulties could be resolved. I've never seen such a big fuck up in my life. I thought for a moment I'd gone to see Ashlee Simpson. When it was all straightened out, Diva Trent stalked back on the stage, muttering obscenities. It was obvious that someone was going to be fired. Anyways, from here, the Nine Inch Nails reunion tour continued. Trent ripped off his schoolgirl's blouse to reveal a spaghetti-strap tank-top that he probably borrowed Stone Cold. From here, the band progressed from old raging classics to new sleepers. Highlights include: Trent's tambourine solo during "aWitha Teetha," Trent jerking off with a water bottle just like he's done at every single other show of his life, a touching moment during Piggy in which Trent hugged himself, the sing-along version of Closer, a homoerotic guitar-playing pow-wow, and Trent's raging dedication of "The Hand That Feeds" to his beloved "George W. Cocksucker Bush." Out of all of these moments, my personal favorite was the guitar player's hurry to get to the guitar smashing. |

The nin ACCESS page is nothing but a joke. its just there to get fans to buy more nin shit...or nin related products. go back to when the downward spiral dvd edition was re-released...sniff sniff...can you smell the marketing department making up stupid questions...i just smell bullshit. i'm surprised to see Richard Devine got a mention in the Thank You's...through that ghey PDF bullshit. Its called we know this album sucks so bad, we're not even going to print up a book for it...you can. what a douche. |

your detached cynicism is really what makes the review fun (and hilarious). i feel kind of sorry for mr. reznor - it seems like he thinks he's still doing cutting edge stuff when he's really just "fat elvis" version of himself. or he's doing what he thinks people expect... just going through the motions... that monitors debacle really sounds like a nightmare because it must make him start to think, "i've dressed up as a woman to be ironic or something and now this all feels kind of silly. oh, well, here i go. don't forget to smash your guitars on cue!" |

thanks for the warning mimi ^^ i was wondering at which day should i go to the this summer... i really didn't want to miss Nine Inch Nails, but on sunday there are Isis, Sonic Youth and Amon Tobin so... : ) (by the way, it's worth what it's worth but - aWitha Teetha gets a 79 on so far, the lowest score being AMG's three stars out of five...) |

mimi, you just didnt enjoy it like you should have as for the fuckups, do you really think Trent gives aflying "f" about that,no one will get fired, its just another one of the jokes in the nin life, shite happens sounds like the openeing band was truely shit, but he knows that there are a lot of fanboys, that will be gone tomorrow and even those diehards, who dont really care jerking off to water is always fun hugging self to hurt, always gets one laid you should have sold me your ticket, id buy it for face value, and do the 8 hour drive, what the hell p.s. when you paint your house and listen to this cd, its nice. |

Ah, The Dresden Dolls, awfuls. Worst music, in fact. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
agreed. how did this new nin album sell? i haven't seen any sales figures. hopefully low. |
||||||||
|
|

For that review: A+ |
||||||||
|
|

excellent! best bits were about Trent's clothing. |

wow, man, did you do that last period in art class? that's like really good. wanna go to the mall and buy black lipstick? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Good review, mimi. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeh we should totally do that, I used up my last black lipstick on that drawing. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, right now it's at amazon.com... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i heard hot topic is selling razor blades now! you guys wanna go? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's also recieve 4 stars with 75 reviews. that's much better than i expected. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what is popular is always right! forck - yeah, i'll meet up with you there whether my mom says it's cool or not! i hear they've got a sale on south park backpacks and arm-stockings, so i am not going to miss that for anything! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sweet dude, see you there. make sure you wear that chain you clipped to your pants, it looks so cool. i don't care if steve says it's supposed to be attached to a wallet, it's awesome anyway. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ugh. seriously, hot topic is disgusting. it makes me a little bit sick on the rare occasions that i see it... i just have to lament the dead culture whose corpse it kicks with every safety-rubber-mtv-brand spike wristband it sells to a thirteen year old with a "good charlette" t-shirt. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
r40f: i never said that popular = good, i just gave the rankings because thecrimsonguard asked. epohs: yeah, but any well-known/"popular" album will get a good average rating from customers on amazon (or any other big online store) anyway. that doesn't mean anything. metacritic scores are much more accurate if you ask me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

The audience was great for Chicago, too. I can't believe I didn't mention the guy standing next to me on the balcony who was repeatedly yelling "Trent! TRENT!" Yeah dude, you're really going to get his attention. I'm fairly certain I saw the worst show of the whole tour; it just couldn't get any worse. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sorry, that was just a joke - i didn't mean any harm. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ha ha!! great! :D "aWitha Teetha" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
r40f: ok ^^ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hopefully low ? quit be a hatorz. when you buy yoru copy it will be sale #666 then. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
from an interview about "the downward spiral" in '94: "The reason why I hope people like Nine Inch Nails is the lyrics. I think that's the element I care about most on this record, in terms of honesty and nakedness of emotion." uh oh. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i edited that, it actually was a stellar guitar performance instead of tambourine |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

trent reznor, to me, is god-like. yeah he's my favorite ever, so i' guess i am pretty excited about this new album. I've already heard "the hand that feeds"... it was poppy and shit, but it's pretty good. I'm not really expecting much from his next 2 albums, but i'm still excited to get them... if not just to add to my nin collection. top 5 favorite bands: nin beck radiohead cocorosie neutral milk hotel |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hehe he, i bought The Hands That Feeds 10" at Hot Topic the other day. it has the B side track "Home" on it which is a decent piece. only other thing that track came on was The Hand That Feeds 7" promo given away at the pre release listening parties, and probably radio stations. Fat Elvis rocks. this is where careers really start getting interesting. i love With Teeth. his next record will be called The Humble. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and a new album real quick now would be the move to make at this point. i had a feeling the next one was going to be fast. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
welcome back/ ~SPD, is "home" a decent track? dont thinky theywere given to radio stations, just as promo items, do yo really think theere is a single radio station arround that still plays 45's ? how was the listening party ? the closest one to me was chicago (8 hours away), where you located at ? i bought halo18, 2 mixes of "bite", but no "home" :( yeah i can see the next one being more HARSH ! :) *NOTHING will beat broken/fixed though |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
recycle> thanks. yeah i can't waitcan'twaitcan'twait... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he has already said a new album will follow quickly and it will not be the traditional remix thing. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
qrter [#01592203] : um... yeah. : | well, about The Downward Spiral, the lyrics themselves are what they are, but i have to give it that the "storyline" is pretty coherent and quite affecting... i dunno. one thing's for sure though, i care more about the music than about the lyrics. tragedy [#01592296] : i'm into the first three ones of your list a lot too... been listening to Beck a lot lately. i have Odelay, Mutations, Mellow Gold, Midnite Vultures and Guero, might also get Sea Change. : ) recycle [#01592413] : 'Home' is on the japanese and european versions, i have it on my copy! it's a decent one yeah, if you like the album you might want to download it or something... to review it stupidly, musically it starts with an oriental-sounding vibe, then pounding "tribal-like" drums but not agressive; it has soft vocals and a pretty beautiful chorus... lyrically, if you care about it, it's about living with someone you shouldn't be living with (because of love or something like that probably), yet not managing to leave... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he also said he would release a new album "soon" right after The Fragile was released, and that it wouldn't take 5 years like between The Downward Spiral and The Fragile again... (...and it took 6 years.) ^^ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the lying goth bastard |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
now that he's making quick, disposible music, it should be much faster for him to churn out his afterthoughts and assign them angelic catalogue numbers. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm not going to reply in this off topic topic |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what ever happened to BLEEDTHRU? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, like in the interview. So he's trying to add a human element to the music by making his tracks as fast as possible? Wasn't it like a few months between when he announced he was scrapping BLEEDTHRU and then came out with this? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i don't know exactly - are they really different projects or just a different title? he did scrap something, didn't he? this is confusing. anyway, he certainly made it in a relatively very short period of time... i don't hear anything new or interesting in the music like i did with his other albums - just sloppy commercial pop music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he's just full of crap, with his millions of albums that sound hollow, the guy from prodigy says that too there's just real music and bubblegum pop for teenagers |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and what, did dave grohl play on this or were his tracks canned? because this doesn't sound like his drumming to me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh god, i'd rather listen to this than prodigy, to be quite honest. broken wasn't pop, i like that album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
didn't hear about david grohl. richard devine worked on some transitions for BLEEDTHRU or something. yeah, i'm pretty sure he was like "BLEEDTHRU is no more we're doing something completely different now called aWith aTeetha" hahah, seriously, what is with that? |
