Controversial Nine Inch Nails opinions

[piggy]

I think I love "Piggy" because it's basically like a NIN take on jazz. I'm not into jazz, but I just find that combination of styles so interesting.

[Ryan]

You're a piggy.

In the same vein, Eraser (Polite) > Eraser

My big thing was always Heresy (Version) > Heresy, I absolutely love that remix!

The Slip is a damn good album.

[thevoid99]

The Slip is a damn good album.

There's nothing controversial about that. I fucking dug that album.

[Ryan]

The Slip is a damn good album.

It is.

[zeegrizzle]

Damn ^^^ That was my very first NIN show. Lights in the Sky was my least favorite song on The Slip, but after hearing that piano live it completely changed into one of my favorite's... Bruuuh

LITS into CR into TFOUAD = bliss

[sheepdean]

LITS into CR is one track and Trent made a mistake splitting the two

Lights In The Radiata?

[sheepdean]

Lights In The Radiata?

Corona Radiata can be a lot of things, but one of them can be the glowing aura around a star/sun. So .. lights in the sky WOULD have a corona radiata.

I'm sick of hearing THTF at shows. Please stop.

[icklekitty]

I'm sick of hearing THTF at shows. Please stop.

The whole trio. Every time THTF starts I want to set myself on fire.

[Ryan]

Me too. Please starp.

[BenAkenobi]

Well, for me that one seems to be not quite an easy to perform and I'd like to see him put effort in songs.

[Ryan]

What made it (THTF) become such a huge staple? Why couldn't it be that other single from With Teeth? That other third single with the scrapped video that is barely played live?

"Only" is a semi-staple...


WHY CAN'T THE PORPOISE BE A STAPLE?


^ That above line will go down in NIN/ETS history, methinks.

[Deepvoid]

I really dig the new visuals for THTF. Thought it gave the song a second life.
The one thing I dislike is his phrasing for "it is black and it's hollow and it's cold". He always sounds weird signing that part. Nitpicking ...

[Ryan]

He should at least remix it and call it The Fist That Fucks.

[Jon Griffin]

And on a completely unrelated note Getting Smaller is the worst song on WT and one of the worst in the NIN catalog.

EVERYBODY says that shit...not very controversial. I actually think it's pretty badass.

RWIB album version as well. And ITT. And Zero-Sum. And SICNH.

Especially ITT. Out of the 4 times i've seen nin, that was the best closing track.

that is just crazy talk
the guitar tone on that is great

that drone bridge is badass

I freaking love that song

worst song on WT is EASILY ... With Teeth

Awitha Teetha?
I'm a fan boy to the core, but i'll agree with you on that. I DO adore the "i can not go thru this again" part.
A WITH A TEETH-UH!
The only NIN song that i actually dislike is that fucking GOD AWFUL capital g house remix. Now THAT was a bad track.

Here's a bit of controversy...i think i like YZ better than TDS. And it's not due to my age...i bought both of them when they came out. But it's not just the album i like, mind you...i'm including the awesome experience of the ARG, the artwork, and the live production of the period.

I can say for sure that i liked seeing NIN 2008 better than NIN 1994.

NO DUDE, JUST NO
that capital g remix is AWESOME "push the button!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

and also I *still* cannot get into YZ, no matter how much I try. the songs live work alright, but the album is eh for me. Maybe if I had been into the ARG it would've been cool, but I'm so bored by things like that -- so just evaluating it as an album, it doesn't work for me

wow...are you fucking serious about that capital g remix? that is awesome, but year zero is eh?
wow dude.

[implanted_microchip]

Having every live performance of Closer for almost 10 years now end with The Only Time breakdown has gotten really stale and cuts out arguably the best section of the original song.

[WorzelG]

I think there's a reason Hurt is played at the end of the end of the show, and this video is evidence - it at least has to be played after Head Like a Hole so people don't keep shouting head like a hole and piss Trent off!



Maybe the US is more respectful than some European festival but I remember some incident involving a lighter happened somewhere in America?

THESE FUCKERS!!!!!!! THere's some of them every GODDAM SHOW!!!!!
There's a certain sect of nin inch nails fans at the show, YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE. They only care about PRETTY HATE MACHINE. once sin starts they freak out!! Then once the song is over they turn into fucking rocks just taking up space the rest of the show. PLAY HEAD LIKE A HOLE MAN YAAA PLAY THAT ONE I"M A FUCKING MOUTH BREATHING MORON. I wish there was a trap door underneath them and I could just hit it and suck them out of the room so that people that give a shit about the last 7 ALBUMS HE'S MADE SINCE THEN can have some goddam room! (i'm just kidding I love you all)

They are probably the same fuckers who screamed at Page and Plant to "PLAY STAIRWAY!" when i saw them in 98.
There wasn't a snowball's chance in hell of them playing stairway to heaven, but these fuckers wouldn't shut up screaming and whining for it for the entirety of the show, while the band played Babe I'm Gonna Leave You, No Quarter, and Since I've Been Loving You, among other amazing songs.
