    NIN Spotting 2015

    Alec Empire gave the keynote speech at the 2014 Chaos Communication Congress. Near the beginning, he introduced himself and showed some photos of people wearing Atari Teenage Riot (his group) shirts. One photo was of Trent and some random lady. I'm not going to link to the talk, which you can watch online. Why? I have no idea if linking to it would break any forum rules.

    It may have already been mentioned but Russell Mills finally sent out an email blast with new information about Cargo In the Blood, The Reverse is also true, his book featuring and discussing the artwork he made for Hesitation Marks. He is also planning a similar book for his Downward Spiral art.

    Cargo In The Blood | The Reverse Is Also True
    limited edition multiple

    With his musical collaborator Mike Fearon as assistant, Mills spent most of October in Los Angeles working on two 200' x 6' mixed media canvases. These have been cut down into 4000 individual unique artworks, 2000 of which will be included in the limited edition multiple Cargo In The Blood/The Reverse Is Also True, which features all the works made towards use in the Nine Inch Nails Hesitation Marks album of 2013. To be produced in an edition of 2000 copies, the releaae date, price and details of how copies of Cargo In The Blood can be ordered will be announced soon on both www.russellmills.com and www.nin.com

    The Art of Nine Inch Nails : The Downward Spiral
    limited edition multiple
    The second set of 2000 works may be included in a similar limited edition multiple showcasing the art works that Mills created for Nine Inch Nails' seminal The Downward Spiral album of 1994. This limited edition has yet be confirmed.

    2000 books, Mills prices/NIN deluxe prices ... I'm guessing $150 each?

    Speculatively, it may be even more than that. I'm not sure, because this is the first time so much NIN artwork has been presented in high-quality reproductions at this size (except maybe in David Carson's Fotografiks, but that was alongside his other work).

    His NIN prints are £300 - that's ~$450, so you might be right

    Helmet's Page Hamilton mentions Trent/NIN in interview for Alternative Nation:


    I was hoping we could discuss some of the the individual tracks on Betty as well. We’ll start with the opener track, “Wilma’s Rainbow?”
    Page: The title I got from a place that sold shaved ice in New Orleans on Magazine Street. And it was coincidentally down the street from the Nine Inch Nails’ funeral home studio that Trent Reznor bought years later [Nothing Studios]. I ended up spending a lot of time at that studio and Trent was really generous. [...]

    Another collaboration that comes to mind is on Nine Inch Nails’ track “No, You Don’t.” Can you talk about how this happened and working with Trent?
    Page: Trent was a Helmet fan and they asked to tour with us after he was opening for David Bowie and we just had a blast. We hit it off and had a really fun time. I went down to New Orleans to work with Charlie Clouser, who was one of the most brilliant computer geeks worked with and he was a big part of The Downward Spiral. And then I just was riffing one day and Trent was really into it and it evolved from there. It was a good musical pairing, even though we have different backgrounds. I’m a Masters Degree in jazz kind of guy and Trent is really good with the technology side of things.

    So, kind of a personal plug. But I was recently interviewed by Cleveland dot com for the live archive. I was more excited about the fact of having a bit of exposure with the archive in Cleveland just due to the fact of the start of NIN being in that city. Someone who worked at the site was an employee at TVT Records and I am hoping to speak with someone that could see if anyone has any earlier NIN live recordings from the label. Also talked with someone who is trying to help me track down the Phantasy Theatre owner to see if they can spread any light on earlier recordings.. If their in house board guy had recorded any of their earlier shows. That would be pretty neat!

    Brief mention here: http://www.avclub.com/article/steven...t-2001--213842

    Previously, he mashed up the two versions of Alfred Hitchcock and Gus Van Sant’s Psycho to reveal the subtle changes made between the films and how those affect viewing. He also redid Raiders Of The Lost Ark as a black-and-white film with a Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross soundtrack, which illustrated Steven Spielberg’s expert command at blocking and shot composition.

    Dresden Dolls got paid $500/show to open up for NIN? That seems so ... small. Crazy.

    Non-Spotting: The conspicuous lack of an Oscar Nomination for the the Gone Girl score.

    Ridiculous.

    This might have been spotted last year, but I just now noticed it at the 6:14 mark...

    Promotion for the dates that got canceled maybe?


    edit: shit i just noticed the post before mine. Somebody at Vice must be a NIN fan.

    I feel like they could EASILY a double that number if they did a headliner on their own instead. That's kinda shitty.

    Not sure if you're laughing at them, or with them!

    Anyways, gotta wonder what someone like The Bug (or whatever his or her name was during LITS) got paid. Or imagine being the undercard for a lesser band that can't fill clubs yet plays them.

    Should be some good stories on here from ETS members who've done some of their own touring. Googling it would probably dig up stories as well.

    Its kind of sad that Trent offers opening bands as popular as them mcdonalds level wages. "You get paid in exposure, i'm doing you guys a favor"

    Fuck that.

    To be fair I'm sure it's an industry standard thing, and not a NIN/TR situation. They even said theres no hard feelings towards it- they took the offer and that's why NIN/TR has management to pay for.

    Which brings an interesting thing up- rarely do you see now a good opener for established bands outside of co-headliner tours. Times change I guess.

    Dresden Dolls were not "popular" yet on that tour. This was Spring 2005, they were virtually unknown outside of some very small pockets of fans.

    NIN's opening bands also got to eat the backstage craft services & dinner served at each show; I remember Amanda blogging about that way back when.

    Touring in that slot can be rough regardless of how much you're making each night. I think NIN was pretty courteous to their openers, unless they did something stupid like DFA1979 talking shit openly about how miserable they were doing it.

    This is a promotion poster for a cancelled concert in Kiev, Ukraine. Show was scheduled on June 16th 2014. I bought a ticket for this show:



    Also, this was mentioned on NIN twitter account: https://twitter.com/nineinchnails/st...20036555587584

    This is weird, and the source isn't confirmed from What I can find, but apparently these are concept art pieces for the joker in the dark night. From what they said they used Elijah Wood and Trent Reznor as bases for the character.

    It's funny / sad that they'd tweet that out, but they never bothered to announce canceling three gigs over at that side of Europe. In fact they kept the Twitter background that showed all tour dates, including the canceled ones.
