Mr. Hakujin Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 ^^OH, HAI. I SAW U N HAWTCHIX THREAD, RIGHT? As far as the music goes, I clicked two of those vids and it was just random processed synth & guitars. I hope her voice is decent b/c this whole thing screams "meh." to me. I'd say she could be the modern day Yoko, but two things are wrong w/ that: 1.) Reznor became irrelevant long before he hooked up w/ her, and b.) she's way sexier than Yoko.

The NZA Posted May 6, 2010 Author Share Posted May 6, 2010 b) i can get behind ( ), 1)...irrelevant how? NIN hasnt been mainstream since like downward spiral, but what ive heard of ghosts, things falling apart etc (i missed a bit in between there) he's still brought quality. he's just not angry like he was. we're clearly not getting pretty hate machine 2.

Mr. Hakujin Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Arguing Reznor's musical relevance post Downward Spiral is like arguing *insert witty comparison that sarcastically implies you're a dolt for claiming anything Reznor has done since Downward Spiral has been even remotely close to that or previous works in its influence and/or quality here* PS Is it just me that thinks Reznor's a bit crazy for marrying this chic? Granted I'm going solely on those photos and basing my judgements on her with no real knowledge of her whatsoever, but doesn't she look like the kinda girl you spend 4-12 months of your life with having crazy fun times, but then distance yourself from once you realize her insurance is no longer covering her meds and she's supplementing them by huffing glue and smoking meth? Just sayin', she doesn't look like the "take home to mom" type o' gal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted May 6, 2010 Author Share Posted May 6, 2010 1) the texans - when they show - are gonna eat you alive for saying trent's not done quality in over 10-15 years. you're flying solo here, sir. 2) i dunno, i dont really know home girl. all i can say is whenever people say "that's the kind of woman you'd wanna take home to momma" that usually equates, to me, a very boring broad. but you should prolly ask a man who's close to his family, granted. congrats on insulting senshik, sir. she was a fan, you know. for real though, i know a lotta folks stopped listening after downward spiral. i thought the remix album, further down the spiral, was great, personally, but i dig industrial mixes. did you not cotton to the fragile or check out anything post? with teeth was hit or miss for me, but a lot past that worked. just curious.

YOU'RE GODDAMN RIGHT! If it isn't on the Top 40 station or getting heavy rotation on TRL (does that even still exist?) it isn't going to be on Haku's radar. I can't say Haku doesn't have his finger on the pulse of the music industry, he does. It just happens to be the pulse of a 14 year old girl. That chick is a little too hot to be completely sane. I'm sure she's just a performing monkey that Trent is training to play music, which I'm perfectly fine with. The clips sounded good to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalHeart Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 I haven't heard her stuff, but she was in a band prior to marrying Trent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted May 9, 2010 Author Share Posted May 9, 2010 That chick is a little too hot to be completely sane. quoted for truth. honestly, trent found success and a beautiful woman he seems happy with. can he still be angry? or do you guys want more piano stuff anyway? just curious about expectations here, as weve only got a few short clips.

Thelogan Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 I was going to watch it later, but then I heard that Haku didn't like it so I figured it's got a pretty good chance of being worthwhile All in all I dug it. I mean it's no Christina Aguillerra or anything, but it's still good. Better than I was expecting. Reminded me a lot of the single that came out before The Fragile, The Day the World Went Away. It's understated and is most likely not a representation of the rest of the album. Probably a track 2, 6 or 11 or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree this is definitely music to be meh to. Although WTF kinda logic is that this isn't representative of the album? Isn't that kinda the point of musical artists releasing a single & video--putting their best stuff out there to lure the listeners in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted May 15, 2010 Author Share Posted May 15, 2010 $1 says haku's one of those "i loooove nine inch nails; the 'fuck me like an animal' people right?!" from back in the day. if the beat & tone dont sound like reznor's works to you, im guessing you stopped listening around the time he made the soundtrack to quake. just a guess.

Isn't that kinda the point of musical artists releasing a single & video--putting their best stuff out there to lure the listeners in? Maybe when you're dealing with Shakira, not when you're dealing with NIN. I'm making a call based on extensive previous experience here. You dabble with forces you scarcely understand, sir. I used Day The World Went Away as an example. That single came out months before The Fragile and was not a representation of the album. It was something for existing fans to enjoy before the actual album came out. Trent doesn't blow his wad on prerelease singles, and this hasn't been about money for quite some time. If memory serves the last album was given away to anyone who wanted it, I find that respectable. Ah, Logan. How I've missed thee and thouest musical snobbery. With all due respect ma'am, I don't see how I'm the one being a snob here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted May 16, 2010 Author Share Posted May 16, 2010 oh shap the gaga shot got stealth edited and yeah, my comment was way more snobby! what am i, hipster chopped liver?! i remember when that single came out, and yeah, it truly wasnt very telling of what to expect off Fragile, much less the pleasant surprise that was All that could've been. bear in mind, the last id heard from NIN (as i recall) was Further Down the Spiral, which had some really great mixes, but was obviously quite different. used to be this great site for fan mixes, i think i still have "Closer to the day the world went away", i recall liking that take a bit more.
