    I thought it actually meant "kiss my ass" ? Anyway that makes Mozart more of a precursor to Bloodhound Gang...

    Lick my ass nicely,
    lick it nice and clean,
    nice and clean, lick my ass.
    That's a greasy desire,
    nicely buttered,
    like the licking of roast meat, my daily activity.
    Three will lick more than two,
    come on, just try it,
    and lick, lick, lick.
    Everybody lick their ass for themselves.

    I feel like I was an asshole here before bill was even signed up. But I wasn't trying to be funny I was just blowing steam in the only appropriate place here is all. I LOVED LITS, it was amazing and the merch was INCREDIBLE, try getting a 1,000,000 jacket or the messenger bag without spending fortune now.

    I cant compare NINs worst album to Mansons worst album because I thought Manson died 15 years ago....Shocked he's still around. I dated a few hot topic goth girls the last couple years and he's still their lord and savior, so as long as hot topic mall goths exist, MM should have a career....I saw a youtube video of him playing a show recently and he was falling over himself drunk/coked out and rambling into a mic and forgetting the lyrics to his own songs and his voice was destroyed.

    Manson's slump/downfall has been overstated, IMHO. His last two before TPE weren't great, but weren't awful either. Haven't listened to TPE but it's getting some very good reviews. There has never been a bad, or even sub-par NIN, IMHO.

    To be fair, that was Trent in Japan in 2000, although without the voice destroyed bit

    I legit think you should send that to Rob to be used in future Russian NIN merch

    See, those two get me especially fired up.

    1,000,000 was such a great opener for LITS.

    I understand that there isn't much point in arguing about something as subjective as musical opinions, but i just never understood the disdain for the slip.

    1,000,000 on the album is okay. But Ilan fucking KILLS that shit live, and it's awesome.

    1,000,000 is 10/10. Easily the best track since the collector.

    lol good point...although those NIN 2000 shows still had insane energy


    as for Slip...I look at it as more of an EP to tide people over for the next tour/Robin rejoining the band...as an EP its solid enough...as an album...not so much

    It was one of the best live songs while Robin was allowed to actually play it on a guitar. An audio rip of the rehearsal video was my most played NIN track circa 2010-2011.

    I think the only track that I'm not crazy about on The Slip is Corona Radiata, and that's only because it's too long for what it is. I've been meaning to make a three-to-four minute edit of it at some point just for my own satisfaction.

    Even though I can somewhat understand some of the disappointment directed at The Slip, I thought that it was actually perfect for anybody that loved With Teeth. I also try to keep reminding myself that The Slip as an album was like a picture that was a sketch as opposed to a full-fledged painting. I remember reading about The Slip and Ghosts I-IV being described that way by even Trent Reznor himself, if I'm not mistaken.

    i agree.
    it isn't exactly "fleshed out" and it goes in a couple of different directions.

    what i REALLY love on it is the beginning up through echoplex.

    and it definitely worked well with the tour...we had all been listening to this new, free ep, and they come out and play the first four tracks off of it and blew the fucking roof off the place before they even really "turned the lights on."

    The Slip & Ghosts I–IV were supposed to be experimental in lots of different ways; I think they got plenty more things right than wrong with The Slip. I love stuff like "The Four of Us Are Dying", which is catchier and more interesting than most of the tracks on Ghosts.

    @Leviathant @kleiner352 @sheepdean - I thought that this post would've been perfect for all the three of you to like.

    Then again, this post doesn't seem to be controversial at all. After all, this is the place to love NIN of all eras and kinds.

    It really is.
    I love the NIN meets Boards of Canada aesthetic.

    This credit is really weird because Alessandro has gone on record saying he didn't play a note on it and was just hanging around. As for Josh and Robin, they probably had a couple of songs each, hardly the whole album.

    Well I imagine that was counting the live DVD and all live instrumentation.

    And hey, Ally performed the hand.

    God how I hated the whole "price is right" tale every review was giving... Each time I wondered if the reviewer had actually listened to the album, or had just thrown a bunch of number in Excel and made a chart comparing their interest in the music multiplied by Reznor's past fame and substracted the price they paid for the record. "Yep, the number's good enough, great record dude, loving that whole "not having to pay shit" sound you got going there !"
