Album Review: Nine Inch Nails "Hesitation Marks"

.

If you know me, you KNOW I love me some Nine Inch Nails. They are my absolute favorite band. So I will try to contain myself as I try to type together a concise, well thought out review of the latest project Hesitation Marks. So here it goes: OH MY GAHHHD THIS ALBUM IS F@##$$% AMAZING!!! The End. No but really, it is. In 2009 after the Year Zero era, Trent announced the NIN was pretty much over. The touring stopped, he got wifed up (lucky broad), had some kids, won this thing called an Oscar, yeah NIN fans pretty much knew it was over. Then earlier this year news came out that they were going tour AND coming out with new album!? THANK YOU YEEZUS!! Finally this past week the album was released. I have to say that IMO this is NIN's best album since The Fragile, which is my personal favorite album. I believe that this album takes elements from every project release and even some surprises like the pop-punky "Everything". I also think that is very interesting that Trent is coming back in an era where Electronic Dance Music is king. Its amazing how many DJ/producer's take notes from Trent's repertoire. Its like Trent's coming back on the scene like "I'll show you how to do this son!". So my summary on the album: OH MY GAHHHD THIS ALBUM IF F@##$$% AMAZING!!! The End. Really this time

Saddened but not Surprised.

Haha,love this picture
So this past weekend at Bonnaroo, Trent announced that it was NIN's last show in the US. This is funny cause I had tickets to see them the day before in Charlotte, NC but decided not to go cause 1) NO money 2)I wasnt going to drive 5 hours just to sit on the lawn and watch them on a screen, I can see better footage on the tube of you's. But I am sad to hear this, but he has said this before so we'll see. Plus he's all happy and stuff cause he got a wifey and prolly wants to start a family pronto. It's all good we all have to grow up sometime. If this is true and he really is not going to perform anymore it is definitely an end of an era, for sure.

Drools all over self

If you know me you know I love Nine Inch Nails, so I found myself at work looking on youtube for show clips from their current tour. Then I had to stop cause I got mad cause I was 'sposed to go see them in Charlottesville earlier this month but didnt cause ITS A GAHT DAMN RECESSION GOING ON! But anyways I decided to post a video of the song "Echoplex" from The Slip their last musical effort with new material and as you can see the drumbeat in the beginning is made from a touchscreen, sweet.
