    "I don't walk around throwing mic stands when I'm eating dinner" I love him. Also, not sure if this makes sense but this interview, to me, shows how he doesn't need to please other people; he doesn't fake pleasantries, he doesn't let the interviewer cut him off, he doesn't feel the need to really do anything besides look away as he's answering or look at his hands or something. He's amazing and he's definitely one of my heroes.

      same here, I love Trents work. I could listen to his music and focus on each individual instrument. He is a very interesting human being and i think this world needs more talent like him.

    When I listen to Trents music it can feel multiple things. things that don't make sense to alot of people unless you really listen to his music. I feel like I'm being taught a difrent language, a language unknown by man. I feel like my life has been laid before me and turns into a spiral. I feel like I'm spiraling down into everything I know in the world. it feels mystical with every song but only if you understand his way of speech. I'm sure other people who understand his music feel the same way or difrent ways but his music shares the same feel as the brief case in Pulp Fiction. it's all up to you what's inside. it could be as simple as money or as complex as somthing godly. it's all up to you and even still were able to come to understand it difrently yet still as one fan base. Truly astonishing.

    When I met Trent In Newport KY, The Band Was Nine and 1/2 inch Nails. The had a 1st record/Demo going out to Phils Record bar and he was in a battle of the bands and was not the winner. We drank with him and had our Pics taken throught out the night it was so cool to know him then and not aware he was going to be Famous.

      Randy Eible Your not the only one (6 years ago guy) Most people these days, mostly kids, don’t even acknowledge rock music in general anymore. Not that Johnny cash wasn’t rock, but people are told what to like and what’s popular these days. And pop and hip hop has dominated the music industry for almost 20 years. I can’t even meet someone these days in there 20s who knows who the fucking Smashing Pumpkins are

    At 2:23 there is a scene from The Perfect Drug which was the 96-97 era. Around 2:42 there is scenes from We're In This Together in the background from the 99 era. This could have just been thrown in later when the interview was released. I'm not sure.

    Reznor never did heroin; he was a cocaine addict. It remains a thought provoking lyric, however, even more so because he never abused heroin.

  • @Urrarg
    @Urrarg 13 років тому

    @StickyInADarkBlueCut Suck was originally written and preformed by Pigface, which was lead by Martin Atkins. Where it did feature Trent, Pigface was not Trent Reznor the way that NiN is Trent Reznor. So, where this may be reffering to heroin it doesn't mean that it was a personal experience of Trent's. It could have been a personal experience of anyone from Pigface since there were 4 people working together to created their songs.

  • @apocindustries7217
    @apocindustries7217 15 років тому

    yeah, i'm not a singer by trade but everyone i play with, and myself are multi instrumental, so lots of swapping occurs, and if the music was lighter then i'd be fine, but i don't have much in the screaming range, it's like my voice goes fine up til the point it needs agression than, *pow* the voice stops and i have to go to part of my throat where it's less confortable. also why are people thumbing that down. dude was offering a peice of legitimate advice.
