I still think it's unfortunately not clear what Trent's intention was. It's still possible that the pre-emph flag was set in error on the original master. I mean it's a surreal decision to set it at all in 1995. I can't think why they wouldn't have baked the EQ in if that was the desired result. But it's also possible that it was dropped in error on the re-issues, especially since it's more likely that team NIN were less hands-on (or at all involved) when those were produced.



"much too long", "talk too much", "get too far" ; it's still pretty hard to pick out
I might be projecting, but after 1:10, I think that among the other voices, I heard "trigger" (@ 1:23.5 - 1:24) and "determined flash" ...and I feel pretty strongly like I hear "bang" @ 1:18 - these repeat one or more two times in the audio that follows.
