Random NIN Questions

[Kamelion]

Just listened to the With Teeth rehearsals version, and the one that's on BYIT etc. Can't hear it either.

Does anyone know exactly which Closer / In Da Club mashup was used for the Ilan ? Or is it even one that's been released vs something that someone in the NIN camp made themselves for that?

[bobbie solo]

it's def been released. Mighta been a white label/promo only type situation though. I can upload when I get home from work. Quality isn't perfect, but its not bad either.

Anyone know of a way to listen to Trent's 2016 interview with Zane Lowe -- preferably without subscribing to anything?

The links I've come across are dead, and I don't see it on youtube yet.

Does anybody have any information about the old Disturbed interview disc? -

https://www.discogs.com/Nine-Inch-Na...release/517385

I must've listened to this thing 10s of times as I waited patiently for any sort of news on a Downward Spiral follow-up. But I was always curious about the nature of the interview. Was it for a magazine? Who were the interviewers? And why was Trent being driven around by one of them, talking to the interviewer as if he were an old friend? What was the connection there?

(Other, less interesting questions that always popped into my mind; why wouldn't those who released this thing try to tidy-up the audio before distributing it?; what was that music playing in the background?)

Goodness, the extent to which I have lived and breathed this band, from back in the 90s when I was a teen to today, and to which I have analysed the minutiae of even interview discs, astounds me to this day.

Can someone please explain to me the "infected Japanese" lyric?

Can someone please explain to me the "infected Japanese" lyric?

The language, not the people. Or that's the interpretation I like. Warped ("infected") symbols.

I was thinking an insect-born virus, he likes those lyrically and visually based on TDS/Broken/YZ (and it kills kids, which I'm sure is something that would matter to Trent nowadays) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_encephalitis

This interview talks about a technique TR/AR used for recording Patriots Day. It's possible that what we're hearing is audio from different "generations":

Several Gone Girl songs were done this way.

[SM Rollinger]

Speaking of techniques, whats the story with the muffled, underwater sounding sections of the album cut of 10 Miles High and The Way Out is Through?

I know there are more songs that use the effect on TF so feel free to add them to the discussion.

Hey! Does anyone know who did the artwork for The Day The World Went Away single? I checked the liner notes on the digipak but didn't found anything. Went to ninkiki, wikipedia and other places but did't found anything.

[seasonsinthesky]

One assumes David Carson handled it like the rest of the Fragile artwork.

It doesn't look like something David Carson would do, well, not in my opinion.

lol

so they brought in one guy to do one thing while everything else was Carson? And we've never heard about it all this time....on THIS board of all places?

[butter_hole]

There's that photo from 98-ish of all the alternate covers up on the wall, with the different plants instead of the kangaroo paw. Was Carson involved at that point? Might have been Rob.

My guess would go with Rob too.

Wow. Random. I wonder why he's uncredited.

[butter_hole]

he was a silent angel.. there, but in the shadows. forever keeping himself hidden, for to cast light upon him shall doom him to impermanence. now he must retreat even further.......

he also directed a kid rock video.

Rob is such a nice guy! I wonder why he isn't around this time.

Certainly the TDTWWA single wasn't Carsons work, typography, layout and aestethics don't match at all with The Fragile's album artwork WITT & ITTV singles covers.

Considering the link between the conceptual imagery used on TDTWWA and subsequent TF era releases with Caron on board. I wonder if Carson just kept going in the direction stablished by Hales or if was Trent's idea from the beginning.

Don't know if this is specifically the effect you are talking about, but some of the manipulated, processed noises on The Fragile were done in weird little PC apps like AudioMulch, which I remember sound designer Keith Hillebrandt specifically being a fan of using. I played around with it a bit at the time on his recommendation and got some of those recessed, indistinct, machine-like vocal tones by patching all sorts of weird delays and filters together in that thing.

i think some of what rollinger is talking about can even be achieved by simple EQ filtering. even just putting an LPF on the whole mix at around 2kHz and 24dB/oct, you'll get a similar sound.

[butter_hole]

Actually I'm pretty sure those effects were achieved by simply recording the band from behind a closed door!

[SM Rollinger]

Anyone know where I can, in these sad post-remix.nin.com days, get my hands on excellent quality files of the Keith Hillebrandt versions of "No, You Don't" and "The Fragile" that were hosted on nin.com back in '99?

The Hillebrant version of No, You Dont is awesome

[Vertigo]

I think I've got them on my computer, along with remixes that combine the versions. Send me a PM in the morning if nobody else has linked you by then, I'm AFK at the moment.
