    That ending always gets to me too. Those quavering piano notes end With Teeth in such a perfect way.

    Burning Bright might have become my favourite NIN song, and the truth, I did not expect this at this point in Trent's career.

    Yes! I feel that way about that song and she's gone away. SGA is one of the juiciest nin songs ever. It drips of sexy synths, hypnotic drums and trent screaming. So damn good.

    oh my god, I thought the same thing, those ending piano notes just feel like a release from pain that has gonne on for far too long. It always makes me tear up just thinking about it for some reason.

    differentiating between 3/4 and 6/8 time is all about semantics, though, and more about personal perception.

    No, it's not simply multiplying by 2, and it's not about your feelings. This is music theory, and those two time signatures have different rhythms. If you don't know what the difference is, watch this:

    welp, guess my guitar teacher in high school explained that to me backwards because i've gone the last 15 years thinking it was the opposite. i think the problem is also that, when i record in protools, whether i'm doing 3/4 or 6/8 time, i always set the meter at 3/4 so my measures aren't super long (makes it easier to edit later, if necessary). sorry for throwing misinformation out there and thanks for clearing that up for me.

    Damn. For ages I've been looking out for rips of those promo edits, but never thought to look on one of those bootleg compilations - I'd always dismissed them for one reason or another. That'll teach me.
    Thanks for the info. Now to track down a copy...

    Just keep in the mind that the rips are OK, but the record player was the wrong speed (too slow). I forget exactly how much I had to speed them up (4-5%?) but you can gauge it by ear, comparing to the album version, if you have a good ear for pitch.

    I would really love it if A Minute to Breathe would make it on the setlist one day and get the same treatment as Hurt, Eraser and Right Where it Belongs in a live setting.

    I'd like to see it as an opener personally

    A Minute To Breathe is Trent's best non-NIN song. Disagree all you want, you know it's true. So fucking beautiful.

    Girl you know it's true, ooh ooh ooh, I love you....

    Sorry. Every time someone says "you know it's true" I always break into that song lyric. EVERY TIME.

    A Minute to Breathe is fine, but is hardly his best non-NIN track.

    Technically Missing, Ice Age, How Long or And When The Sky Was Opened are all far superior..

    I'd not seen this before, but 3:25-3:42 documents Trent's seldom-mentioned flannel phase.

    Is it flannel? Looks more like a cotton button down to me.

    Probably, but this is 1990, so it makes me giddy to imagine Trent dabbling in grunge.

    I like that he's playing a guitar with f holes on a metal song. Innovator!

    Trent has dabbled in grunge before. Flannel shirt, black t shirt under and army jacket..Vedder would be proud

    ^The Americans video is just a Taxi Driver reference though, he was wearing Travis Bickle's wardrobe updated to the 90s.

    looks like everyone's getting a custom yeti cup for xmas.

    Current NIN site is one of the worst they've ever had. The design is okay, but it runs like shit and the mobile version is buggy.

    It seems like band websites in general absolute blow lately, I guess we can blame that on facebook but still. I miss innovative band sites.

    Pretty sure this was filmed at pretty much the same time as Head Like A Hole, by the same people. Same day and same venue possibly? Certainly both fucking brilliant songs anyway.

    Watching the Panorama video again, it is still weird to me that Robin is playing Manson and Reverend Guitars as oppose the Les Pauls.
