bump

hm... nobody know? as far as i know there is a bonus: MM and TR playing [I]star[U]fu[/U]ckers[/I] and [I]the beautiful people[/I] together; what do i have to press to see the video?

Werny 12-27-2005 06:30 AM

Repcak, if I'm not mistaken, you can actually download that video off the official NIN website. It might only be a portion, though.

I'm suprised no one pointed out the irony of MM singing a song which is meant to be a parody of him.

I've got the full clip on my computer and it's nothing to stress about.

Go to this link -- [url]http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00005RZPO/qid=1135716401/sr=8-1/ref=pd_bbs_1/103-1508972-7288632?n=507846&s=dvd&v=glance[/url]

Read the first review of the DVD. It has a comprehensive guide to accessing the secret content.

It has some good stuff (TDTWWA video) and some not-so-good (the Manson performance).

i know that you can download the video from the official nin website, but the quality is poor... and dvd is dvd-quality :thumb:

@kage: thank you for the link

ValeOfShadows 12-28-2005 05:13 AM

The Hand That Feeds is the only song iv ever really liked. Though i havent heard much.

misunderstood 12-31-2005 03:28 PM

Hmm. Haven't been around this thread for a while. Repcak, that's great that you got the dvd for x-mas. What did you think of the extra footage? The MM video isn't all that great, I think.

ValeOfShadows, THTF is a good song. I don't mind it. But it's definately not their best. You should check out tracks such as 'And All That Could Have Been', 'The Becoming' and 'Reptile' (among others). 'Dead Souls' is a good one too. I'm assuming you've heard a few others like 'Closer', 'Head Like a Hole' and perhaps 'Hurt'?

Werny 01-01-2006 08:28 AM

I listened to The Fragile all the way through the other night, it has awesome flow but the individual songs are too alike to make it really fantastic. I would rather it as a single album so it didn't need so much filler.

repcak 01-01-2006 09:01 AM

yesterday i saw the dvd for the first time and it was great! a fantastic show; the effects and the videos during the live shows were stunning.
i haven't seen the extra-bonus material yet... i will do that when i will be in vienna again;

Darth Sidious 01-14-2006 01:27 AM

so NIN are starting a new tour. Here's hoping they'll come to Melbourne again.

repcak 01-14-2006 04:00 AM

hm... great for americans... but there are no european tour dates *sad*

Woo ill take another dose of NIN at Rod Laver anyday, but it probably wont be for a while yet :upset:
Were you for the pit for the first show Darth?

vashts80 01-14-2006 11:59 AM

I'm seeing NIN in Atlantic City. I ****ing marked out when I saw the date on their site

vashts80 01-14-2006 03:32 PM

Correction: I was supposed to see them. They sold out in 8 goddamn minutes. Damn scalpers, there's an assload of GA tickets on ebay, but they're ranging from $120 per ticket, to $200 per ticket, to $400 for a pair. For general admission.

PeEpHoLe_10 01-14-2006 08:56 PM

Damn those scalpers! The same thing happened when NIN was first going on tour to support 'With Teeth'...when they did the club tour last year. I was lucky enough to get tickets for the Austin show but that one also sold out within 3-5mins...as did the Houston show which I wanted to also attend. Anyway, I'll be seeing NIN again on March 24th! :cool: Can't wait.
By the way, for those outside of the U.S., seems like they might do a world tour again. At one of the last chats that happened over at the spiral, Reznor himself mentioned something about doing this last U.S. tour and going overseas one more time before finally taking a break. Perhaps they'll be attending summer festivals?

Same exact thing happened to me on their first WT tour. It sucks, and I felt the exact way as you. I missed getting tickets by less than one minute.

White 01-14-2006 10:48 PM

Ya, Srry lol I just found this thread. But yah, I like Nine Inch nails stuff, I had all there albums on my Ipod but it accidentally all got deleted, now Im trying to find someone to borrow "Pretty hate Machine" from, cause that wasd by far my favorite album.

nobodyblossomsforever 01-14-2006 11:04 PM

First time I heard of NIN, I expected them to be an overlyexagerated heavy power chord crazy death metal type band.

I was miles from accuracy, these guys blow me away with their sound. For some reason, and not because I'm a bassist, the basslines seem to stand out most in their music.

Kage 01-14-2006 11:14 PM

Interesting. I've never heard anyone say the bass stands out the most for him in NIN. Cool to hear that, though.

Ya, thats what I always thought of them as back when I was really judgmental, and I couldnt be more wrong, and its sad because thats what the general Public thinks of them.

Anyone wanna give me ANY NIN albums Over MSN add me please [email]id_rather-not@hotmail.com[/email] cause im completly without and it sux hard. so any help is apreacciated

PeEpHoLe_10 01-14-2006 11:15 PM

I've always thought the bass was a major part of the band. They are a prime example of simple bass lines that sound awesome.

[QUOTE=Kage]Interesting. I've never heard anyone say the bass stands out the most for him in NIN. Cool to hear that, though.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I feel the same way, the bass is really catchy.

bwnstl 01-14-2006 11:29 PM

The bass is really catchy on With Teeth. On all the other albums everything is usually really layered over everything so the bass doesn't really stand out.

What about on Pretty Hate Machine? The bass is the prominent instrument for a few songs on that, and it's lovely.

HazMan 01-15-2006 01:37 AM

I love that third song on the Downward Spiral, 'God is Dead' song.

Yeah, it is. I also thought it was very bass driven the first few times I heard it. I like it though.

'Heresy'...awesome song. TDS is without a doubt my favorite NIN album. Love every single track on there. 'The Becoming' is a personal fave.

That's what I was mainly focusing on.

Bass is supposed to be layer into the music though, if you remove it you could probablly tell that the void of their sound is missing.

[QUOTE=Werny]What about on Pretty Hate Machine? The bass is the prominent instrument for a few songs on that, and it's lovely.[/QUOTE]

True, but PHM sucks balls. :(

[QUOTE=misunderstood]Yeah, it is. I also thought it was very bass driven the first few times I heard it. I like it though.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, seems like Teh Reznor has a newfound obsession with the low end; notice how bass and drum driven the entire WT album is, not to mention it was the first album he used live drums on.

[QUOTE=Acoustic Bandit]Bass is supposed to be layer into the music though, if you remove it you could probablly tell that the void of their sound is missing.[/QUOTE]

I agree, but I think it's so layered on TDS and most of The Fragile that it's incomprehensible, and I like being able to hear it because it makes it easier to figure out how to play. =P

repcak 01-15-2006 05:21 PM

PHM don't suck ball :angry: its an excellent record... i listened to it a lot recently and i like it a lot.

Trent used bass lines all the time... the first time i really recognised them in the songs was TDS. especially in Heresy i think, but i'm not sure... maybe it was another song.

King B 01-15-2006 08:24 PM

I ****ing love pretty hate machine. That and downward spiral are really the only ones I like.

Of course, there's Just Like You Imagined and La Mer that both have very prominent and melodic bass lines that drive the songs.

I listened through NIN's entire discography last night. Actually, it was only the four main LPs, but it was still very cool. None of those records have lost any of their luster over the years.

Why I said MOST of The Fragile. :)

OH, and I utterly hate PHM. It's just a boring record. The songs put me to sleep.

repcak 01-16-2006 04:24 AM

ringfinger, sanctified, something i can never have, down in it, sin ... are all from PHM and they are all great!

[QUOTE=Kage]I listened through NIN's entire discography last night. Actually, it was only the four main LPs, but it was still very cool. None of those records have lost any of their luster over the years.[/QUOTE]
that's one of these things i do too, from time to time... the whole night long only NIN :D

bwnstl 01-16-2006 06:04 PM

Sanctified, Something I Can Never Have, and Sin are the only songs I like from it. Head Like a Hole and Terrible Lie were amazing live, but on the record it's just blah.

repcak 01-17-2006 03:35 AM

Head like a hole and terrible lie are live far most better, but on the record they are not revolutionary but OK.

beside that: the best Something i can never have version is a) on the Still cd, b) on Natural Born Killers soundtrack :D
