U guys r nuts. Down In It is where it's at! Period.

I don't know why I didn't think of saying this sooner. Anyway, I'm going to ballpark it around 2020 being the earliest and 2023 being the latest at this rate, just based on previous experience and overall happenings.
I sometimes forget how lucky and spoiled we've been from 2005-2018. Perhaps it's also the Internet being very synonymous with instant gratification, but with that many releases, including the the releases outside of NIN, would be something I'm sure fans would've killed for between The Downward Spiral, The Fragile and With Teeth.
I was just thinking about this again, because Not The Actual Events only came out 3 years after Hesitation Marks, and then Add Violence and Bad Witch coming out just year by year afterwards. I sometimes had to stop for a moment and just take that in, which makes me very grateful. It also occurred to me that my question about NIN coming out with other EPs was also answered, and liked how they can hold up to Broken and Still in terms of storylines and aesthetics.
Seeing Trent take down the exit sign and seeing him get carried off like that is still one of the my most favorite and overall satisfying highlights from Closure.
Right where it belongs > Right where it belongs v2
Something I can never have (still)> Something I can never have (album version)
Video game music composer Akira Yamaoka (Silent Hill) has said that Trent is his "main inspiration". I just found out about that and was pleasantly surprised. http://www.musicjapanplus.jp/special...y-fest/page/2/
I can't be the first to notice this, but the "tick" synth intro to "Somewhat Damaged" sounds almost exactly like the "tick" synth in "Now I'm Nothing" with it slightly slowed down in "Now I'm Nothing."
I gave Hesitation Marks a spin the other day and I really enjoyed Everything.
Listened to purest feeling on repeat a lot lately. This song is one I enjoy, and dont ever get tired of. Hot sax!
Hmm, I could potentially see that... who would have seen "What If We Could?" coming though? I also think perhaps the vocals on "A Minute To Breathe" might be too difficult to pull off live, but then, they've been doing "This Isn't The Place" without a hitch, so who knows. They were all "This is NOT a NIN song" when it was released though, so maybe they want it to keep its distance for the time being.
Whatever the case, I'm gonna hold my breath (tee-hee), but it would be cool if that happened eventually.
I don't see NIN doing any more score stuff onstage, but TR&AR may do a 'solo tour' with other musicians, kinda like those Hans Zimmer gigs with the live orchestra scoring scenes from all the films he's done.
Right, sorry; I didn't mean it like that! I just meant that maybe they were trying to keep NIN and their score stuff separate, but you're right in that maybe they just meant that this wasn't the NIN that was coming.
Yeah, that's more along the lines of what I was thinking. I really hope they do something like that at some point, even many years from now; that'd be amazing.
Anybody hear of a NIN cover band called Sin? They're playing on Long Island tomorrow and thinking of checking them out.
Agree completely. I get the feeling that Trent has been digging into Frank Zappa's "conceptual continuity." Especially in regards to the lyrics of the Trilogy.
Robin's guitar work on the live version of Less Than is amazing. I just feel like the synths are drowned out live. I'd love to hear a studio version with the inclusion of the extra guitar riff
Holy shit, I recently tagged teitan on Oct. 11th and posted how amazing it would be to see/hear And All The Could Have Been live and also gave Hand Covers Bruise into Beside You In Time a mention...
But boom! And All That Could Have Been is played! Love you @teitan

I've been watching Kinda I Want To, That's What I Get and Ringfinger over and over from time to time, and just hoped that they somehow make it onto the setlists again, or if there ever will be a chance for a Pretty Hate Machine show, especially/considering now that The Downward Spiral and Broken were performed in their entirety.
(Along with songs like Happiness In Slavery, The Perfect Drug, And All That Could Have Been and All The Love In The World being performed.)
I still can't get enough of them, and have always wondered how they'd end up live these days.
I almost forgot to bring this point up, since it has to do with not using acronyms. In a way, typing it all out also makes for better search results on Google as well, so there's also no mistake of what a NIN would be, should somebody look up NIN and end up here.
But I still totally understand sometimes, as some titles are just too long, but I still see your point to as I often type out the full names, yet also still go back to some acronyms here and there depending on the post/thread.

I was listening to NIN tonight on shuffle on iTunes and it played "We're In This Together" followed by "The Background World". It transitioned perfectly. Very cool.
