Speaking of his wife. My gosh, when he married her, there were some ROYALLY butt-hurt goth chicks. I'm not even joking when I say that he probably lost some female fans when he married her. I mean, I'm not saying the loss was anything substantial...but the butt-hurt was definitely noticeable. A lot of NIN female fans literally seemed inclined to believe that they stood a chance. No joke. His females fans are insecure, delusional and obsessive. |

If it is indeed false, what path do you think he would take? Do you think he would continue down the electronic path? Piano stuff? |

I was (emphasis on "was") a fan of him, musically, after the release of "The Fragile". I learned far too much about his personal life, IMO, through various friends and such shortly thereafter (and pretty much, right up until today). Some things are better left to the imagination and to the "ether". |

But a horse is a horse is a horse. His sensibilities are his and that's why he's been hired to score. I'm sure he's "capable" of more but will anyone let him go there? That's the $4 million dollar question. |

I used to be able to share so much on this site back in the mid-2000's because it wasn't as populated and essentially, no one knew my identity. But now, it's very different. I have to catch myself now and again, even in real life. I said some not-so-flattering things about Damon Lindelof at a lunch recently, only to bite my tongue after I said it (the people I was with work at Warner's). Since I do work in this business, I have to be careful, even when "anonymous" on this site. I can share to a point but that's pretty much it (and I've had to edit comments the next day too many times to count). |

thanks for the heads up. Not a fan of the new single though. Hope the rest of the album is better.
Anyone else a fan of The Social Network soundtrack? Trent did the score and nailed it out of the park imo |

Trent Reznor is now on the same level as Marilyn Manson to me. Huge fan of their music throughout my life.....but it's gotten to the point now where I WANT to like their stuff.....but it's ****ing hard. Like Dane said.....he should stick to composing.....he's awesome at that.

I've been a NIN fan since 7th or 8th grade when I first heard Pretty Hate Machine. Like many others, I wasn't exactly blown away by the last several releases before the hiatus, but it was still NIN and I still went to the live shows.
Now it's probably my fault, but I totally bought into all the hype over the last few months about how Trent was taking NIN in an entirely new direction. While everyone likes to talk about The Social Network, I was privately hoping for something a little more ambient and atmospheric like his work on Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Add in the Belew factor (if you've never seen the Talking Heads live in Rome, do it now. It's on YouTube in its entirety) and I was properly excited. Then this week happened. Damn it! Suffice it to say, my expectations have been tempered. The new single isn't terrible, it just isn't great either, and it certainly doesn't differentiate itself from latter day NIN. I'm not panicking yet, even The Fragile had Star****ers. However, if this is the lead single, I'm not exactly filled with hope. As an aside: Dane, with your inside knowledge, any idea why Tapeworm never happened? I've always assumed it was a case of too many chiefs and not enough indians, but Maynard seemed to genuinely like the material considering the APC and Puscifer versions of Tapeworm songs. |

I haven't lost hope completely, yet. In most NIN albums, a few of the songs that don't become hits end up being my faves. |
Geez, you just can't trust a guy when he says he's on his farewell tour.
