NIN posted this one to their Instagram on Thursday:


Apparently that's from '94.

That was pretty much their look back then.

edit: It's pretty funny hearing Terrible Lie without doing the whole "TERRIBLE LIE WA-OOHHH" schtick :haw:

Then again, with the European dates, and the Aussie dates with QOTSA, he's leaving the lightshow at home, but aren't tickets going for roughly the same amount as they did in the US? Seems like maybe the lightshow isn't the problem, but rather overconfidence in his ability to sell out an arena after several albums with lackluster sales?

Australia is a different market but you're paying roughly the same amount for those two bands as you'd pay to see for any other band of that type. They're not under or overpriced but priced pretty competitively. Ie: the same as Muse. Bruce Springsteen can get away charging double what they do but he's the boss so that's okay.

So, Trent likes to release little Christmas/New Years gifts via bittorrent every year that NIN is active or touring. Should we start the speculation for this holiday season?

What were they previously? One was the Downward Spiral tour doc video. Was the other one the complete Broken film?

His new album sounds pretty NIN. Moreso than his other recent albums. I think it's cool, but kind of weird. I love the old Gary Numan stuff, until that point where his albums got pretty bad, but then seeing him turn his music into something like NIN is a bit weird for me. Oh, well. Anyone ever see this before? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shOc-5FxA3g

Alternating Headliners with the Australian Tour.

Sick of playing the same setlist, playing new music and changing it every night.

Are they using the same visuals on this tour? I'd imagine switching that show up would be astoundingly difficult to program considering the craziness of the visuals.

They're not, for that very reason. He went to great lengths explaining how he still enjoys performing but after a couple of months of doing the same show over and over the romance is gone.

I believe it's done via coin toss each night. Can't wait for Thursday's show, then I gotta wait another two weeks for my hometown's show :(

I think I already covered that with "Tails never fails" ;)

No but seriously, my understanding is they'd toss a coin for the first night then alternate each other night.

Deadmau5 "I'm doing a new album with guest appearances by Trent Reznor and Mariqueen Maandig."

(That afternoon same radio station)

Trent. "Nope."

Probably because his management had thought that they'd spoken to NIN's management who had in turn spoken to Trent and somewhere along the chain of chinese whispers and incessent backstabbing/rumour-mongering that is the music industry, the message got warped and the two parties that actually matter had a difference of understanding.

For sure. Deadmau5 goes to his management and says "wow, could I get Trent to sing on my album?" his management speaks to Columbia who thinks "man that'd be great exposure for us, we'll make it happen!" and either Trent says no or isn't asked and Deadmau5 says it's happening.

In Adelaide the show started with Me, I'm not -> Beginning of the End -> Survivalism. And then they played Vessel later on.

What I'm saying is I love the poo poo outta some Year Zero live and they really delivered on that.

Also for a show that was obviously so complicated to put on it was amazing the pace that they fired through these songs. One of the other shows in Australia got everyone's favorite loo break number "something I can never have" :3:

The only NIN album I don't like is The Slip. It has a few tracks I like, but most of it is just...forgettable. If it wasn't a free album I'd have been let down, but it was free so...eh.

It was originally an EP right? It's be a pretty great EP if you cut the back half out in my opinion.

The thing about the social network is the film is designed to interact with the score in a certain way and it does absolutely incredibly, where as Gone Girl is all about dissonance and there are periods where the most notable aspect is there is no score, only background noise.

So I don't want to say "hey they're different things" because the Social Network Soundtrack is incredible, but the Gone Girl soundtrack is very good but in a different way.

The fragile is so strange, because the first disc is like three quaters of a really great album. And then it kinda loses me at some point.

It's also, as pointed out, really overtly Cocaine: Hell of a drug - the Album.

And so much of it is throat destroying it's no surprise a lot of it isn't played any more.

I haven't seen many acts that were good openers. The "best" traditional opener would be Kings of Leon, before they made it big, in '06. It wasn't' exactly amazing but it was pleasant enough music to be opening Pearl Jam.

I saw NIN and QOTSA doing the duel headline show thing, and NIN came out first blew through like four Year Zero tunes and then continued to annihilate the audience with a really tight powerful set. And then QOTSA came out and Josh was clearly drunk, and tired of it all and it was the most "meh" thing ever. I never thought I'd be think to my self "Yeah yeah, just play Song for the Dead so we can all go home guys..."

Last time I saw QOTSA on the Era Vulgaris tour they were so tight and full of energy and dynamism it was a real bummer.
