The second half on The Great Destroyer sounds like Aphex Twin. Sorry. |

I got my violence in hi-def ultrea re-alism. he sometimes writes lines that are amusing when you break them apart from the song. |

capital G is pretty funny |
||||||||
|

In a good way? |
||||||||
|

I think he should do a "best of" called "Music for angry teenagers who think they're deep and that no one else gets it". |
||||||||
|
|

why do people expect him to do anything but angst? a common complaint i hear is that Trent is too whiney and pseudo depressed. but what the hell, should he start writing uplifting melodic bubble gum pop about how he wants to get married and make babies? Or maybe he should be writing more songs about drinking top shelf liquor and smokin' kind bud. of course, this would not be NIN. I think he has evolved over the years, tried different techniques and styles. This latest effort sounds NOTHING like Pretty Hate Machine for example, but it still sounds like NIN. he has also maintained his angsty roots. it's why many of his fans started listening to begin with. |

Ever see the film Brain Candy by Kids in the Hall. Remember what happens when the rock star takes the pill? |

This is album was WAY better then with teeth! Lot's of fucking noise !!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this thing has a very unique sound |
||||||||
|

i can't wait till NIN starts rapping about ponies and tea parties. THEN it'll start fucking with peoples head... this whole dark look at me i'm the victim crap is getting kinda old. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"this whole dark look at me i'm the victim crap is getting kinda old." He hasnt really done that since 1994 Valor, I think that is the problem for most of the fans. But I hear what your saying meng... |

im still waiting for the experimental aspects of this album that he kept hyping up..... where are they? The second half of The Great Destroyer is really good crazy noise but the rest of it sounds more straight forward than anything he's done besides With Teeth. When he said experimental i was expecting something like Further down the spiral, Fixed or the Quake soundtrack. |
||||||||

yeah, trent has so much money id be surprised if he didnt own like every Buchla synth ever made. i read an interview with him once in a pro recording mag about how he was mad that he couldnt sync up 2 x 1.5 million dollar mixing consoles called "Studer" because the company had never had anyone buy 2 before. He was acting like a little baby during the whole interview. |

i wish trent did a good remix album again to make up for this piece of garbage (sorry ! ) |
||||||||
|

you're not in the right mood to listen to this new NiN relaese. go listen to some Enya, come back at about 14 April and check again, thanks ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so you'r e saying i have to sink my standards to the level of Enya to be able to appreciate the new nine inch faggles |
||||||||
|

it's alright, i shouldn't have expected that much. i quite enjoy NIN's older stuff, even with teeth has some really good tracks (but half of it is sorely uninspired and dull). this album's leaked tracks were probably the best of the munch. i miss more melodic variation and more experimental approaches, this is structurally pretty close to with teeth. "meet your master" could have been great tune if the chorus melody didn't just repeat but expand beyond the "faster" bit into some different base notes, i have this perfect sequence in my head but WAAAH trent. oh well, it's not offensive. just "decent". |

after one not so proper going through (but with the headphones and in the right mood) i conclude : drum samples, rhythm machines, whatever...are the weakest part of the album...but the synths, noises, electronic production overall has some really on the point composition within songs. his voice isn't angry as on with teeth, which is a paradox cause this album was announced as noisy and angry blah blah...somehow i miss with teeth now BUT survivalism is a perfect example of pop single...i've heard it once and few times skipped through the video but it was only seconds...and days after it's in my head... i was very dissapointed when i heard with teeth for the first time, but later i loved it, esp. the last 4 songs... so this one run faster on the start i'll write more in next weeks after all , this is also an example of the fast written fast recorded than even faster mixing....like the last sonic youth...if you could merge WT and YZ songs and mix it for a long time like downward spiral...then it could be a proper new AND good album... but Trent is fucked up more than any other clever guy on the whole scene, so evryone should be lucky that he's alive. my longest post ever btw |

actually, the track "the great destroyer" is terrific. |

heavy metal so lame kinda man!!! |

We are spoiled when it comes to hearin new fresh and exciting sounds. The average person has never heard of aphex or autehcre so NIN is really ground breaking to them. Probably most NIN fans have never heard of them either. Am I the only one who thinks 'head like a hole' is still the best track NIN ever did? Just like Loser is still the best track Beck ever did.(imho) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And we all know there is long forgotten music from the 50's that is even more odd and amazing when it comes to sound. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no, i meant something different, not worse. you don't need to sink your standards, your highness |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i assure you that even knowing aphex twin, autechre etc, i still find some novelty, "fresh" and "exciting" sounds in other music. idm doesn't have the monopoly of it. : ) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the timing in Survivalism is interesting. he starts out singing on the back beat but the chorus rocks it on the one. makes it kinda difficult to sing along. so then i try harder to sing along and pay close attention and now it's totally stuck in my head. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
no. "Wish" is best. no wait. my favorite is "Burn." |

|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hahah, yeah that was kind of the joke behind the post, ole trent isnt mr. industrial anymore, he is "cheesy pop" and its good stuff |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he was mr. industrial for pepople who never listened to industrial perhaps. maybe. surely. without a doubt. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
uzim, really? Like what artists? I am really curious now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

· the "onkyo", "electro-acoustic improvisation" and "lowercase" genres, with otomo yoshihide, sachiko m, keith berry, bernhard günter etc... granted, different albums by the same artists will sound similar and you don't need a lot of albums from this genre, but you might never have heard anything like it when you hear it for the first time. also ryoji ikeda (quite different actually). · coil (not new, but their catalogue is so large i always discover new things & often surprising ones) · irr. app. (ext.) · saul williams, who i discovered lately and like very much · growing (album : color wheel), ben reynolds... weird hybrid musics, with elements of electronic music, post-rock and other things - assembled in a quite unusual way · since we last spoke by rjd2 · stankonia by outkast (not new either, but i discovered it pretty late and still find it amazing)etc... now aphex twin may still be amongst the best when it comes to reinventing oneself and experimenting different genres, i was pleasantly surprised by chosen lords — but even so, you only get to hear a tiny part of the musical spectrum with a single artist. and only a little part of it with a specific genre like idm. and it seems to me like other idm artists who were groundbreaking once are now pretty much repeating themselves (it's been a while since i bought an autechre album and i might never do it again, i have spokes by plaid but i never listen to it, i've tried throttle furniture by clark but i found so bland and generic i deleted the mp3s after one listen and a half...) — idm is not to blame for that, it happens in every other genre of music. but i'm not an idm fan or an indie rock fan or whatever; i like music, no matter the genre as long as it pleases me. so when it starts to get boring somewhere, i just try and go somewhere else. and i often like what i find. |

mr. uzim: bring out the autechre, crank spokes and trottle furniture is excellent (listened to it twice in the car yesterday) |

why did he base Capital G around MJ's The Way You Make Me Feel? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And what do "Real" Industrial people listen to? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
guess he's thinking of throbbing gristle... at least they established the term in music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
u2 and rolling stones obvuiously. hardcore stuff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Is throbbing gristle what's depicted in your avatar too? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Cant stand it when TG is all anybody can come up with in reference with "real" Industrial. so many other acts... Its funny though how if an industrial act structures its songs in Rock format they are no longer industrial.. (as considered by industrial elitists) I.E. NIN, KMFDM, TKK |
||||||||
|
|

I'd consider Front 242 innovators, to some extent. |
