Holy shit. I always thought it would be cool for them to collaborate, but I never thought it would actually happen. Can't wait to hear it!

Really looking forward to that. Hope TR has some prominent vocal parts.

[thefragile_jake]

HOLY FUCK. Tobacco’s singles have been on a roll lately and I can’t wait for this.

The video appears to be gone now?

It was made private. I expect it to come back tomorrow around 7am CST. In the meantime, I found this link with preview audio and buying options (MP3/WAV/FLAC/ALAC/AIFF) : Tobacco - Babysitter (feat. Trent Reznor)

Available on Spotify and it kicks ass. Can't wait for Tobacco's new album.

Logged in just to say that track is awesome! I pre ordered a cassette just for the fuck of it lol

Seriously though, what a great surprise. the new tobacco album is shaping up extra awesome

I really enjoyed Tobacco live but this just isn't for me. The level of vocal distortion detracts from the song IMO. With that said I like Centaur Skin a lot more than Babysitter. I'll give the whole album a chance when it comes out.

New track sounds great and Tobacco is all around awesome. Cornetto edition looks really cool so I pre-ordered that one.

already wrote about this in the tobacco thread but yeah, ditto, 100%. the vocals don't become recognizable as trent until the last few seconds. centaur skin is GORGEOUS, though.

Remember when George Clooney guested on South Park and he appeared as a dog or something?

That's that kind of feature TR gets to do here and I love it.

Damn, that's some crazy sht! I may have to get into this guy that's cool

Since I haven't seen it posted here yet...

"And what would Trent Reznor do? Fec found his answer straight from the source. Their collaborative track, “Babysitter,” fuses their voices into one deranged presence: “I’m the new babysitter,” they alert, before pivoting into a menacingly saccharine bridge. The track tumbles on a tom fill, then a punishing synth line rips into a cacophony of drums and feedback like a lawnmower gnawing through the living room carpet. “This was new for me, but I wanted to write a song that was everything I am and have been, and then like one notch further. Trent was the notch further,” adds Fec. The collaboration is a work of alchemy seamlessly blending TOBACCO’s trademarks with Reznor’s industrial rust and sonic gore." (source)

[Erneuert]

Lol

"I’m sorry to... differ with you, Mr. Reznor, but you are The Babysitter. You’ve always been The Babysitter. I should know, sir. I’ve always been here (with my fellow posh chum Atticus)."

*queue eerie connection to the supposed Overlook score that didn’t happen*

[thefragile_jake]

According to my Last.fm, I've listened to this track nearly 25 times within a 24-hour span. Holy fuck is this good. Tobacco never disappoints and now to have Trent on a track?

[slave2thewage]

Yeah, I don’t care for this. It just does nothing for me. Oh well.

[brotha52]

Will this track be on the album coming out in October?
The only physical item I see available is the t-shirt, which they mention bundling with the minidisc.

Well I'm not getting much out of this, It's a chicken leg with hardly any meat on the bone.

Production is fine, it doesn't sound bad but i don't have much desire to listen to it more than once.

Trent's inclusion doesn't make or break it, he's just kinda there if you can parse through all the distortion.

All in all not very eventful to me.

[acrid avid jam shred]

I dig it! It sounds so warped and noisy, but in an awesome way. I hadn't listened to Tobacco in ages, gotta give Fucked Up Friends another spin for sure! I really liked Sweatbox Dynasty when that came out too.

Exactly. Not what I was hoping for when I think of a Tobacco/Trent Reznor collab. Maybe if they did an entire album together of stuff like this, it would be remarkable. Didn’t Trent say he wanted to do more collaborations in the future? If you weren’t told he was on this track, you’d never even know..

Spoiler: Of course, I preordered the vinyl anyway, because it’s Tobacco..

[PhoenixML]

I totally understand why it doesn't appeal to everyone. But it's funny to see some few comments here and there (reddit/facebook/youtube/etc..) from NIN fans saying: "I don't like it, it's just noise".

[spahn]

"I don't like it, it's just noise".

heh, it's why I DO like it.
