Further down the spiral...

reptile — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 07:03:33 -0800

We've seen Nine Inch Nails before on the blue, and the band's last two albums have been available for free online. Now there's more, in the form of a fan-produced DVD. Trent Reznor's last tour was supposedly his last ever, and as a gift to his fans over the years, he put on some special performances. NIN played the entirety of The Downward Spiral album live at Webster Hall in NYC, but due to exorbitant prices charged by LiveNation, were unable to professionally film the performance. So the fans stepped in, a call was made for HD video filmed by fans at the show, and the result is here: The Downward Spiral: Live, a fan-produced DVD available via Youtube streaming or for download with bittorrent.

Nine Inch Nails raises $260,000 in less than one day to help heart patient

Eric de la Cruz needs a heart transplant. He has a pre-existing medical condition (over and above that), which prevents him from having medical insurance. His sister, former CNN.com reporter Veronica de la Cruz wrote to Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails, asking for his help. Last night, Trent posted a plea for donations and an offer to fans to attend a show, hang out with the band, backstage, etc. As of a few minutes ago, over $260,000 in donations have been accepted by NIN on Eric's behalf since last night.

Apple pulls Nine Inch Nails iphone app - However will Trent Reznor respond to censorship by the Man??

njbradburn — Sun, 03 May 2009 07:15:47 -0800

Maybe Apple had never actually listened to the song Closer before approving the Nine Inch Nails iphone app, but Trent Reznor Twitted today that Apple pulled the NIN application from the store due to objectionable content. The objectionable content referenced is "The Downward Spiral." Reznor chatted with digg.com last month and talked about the iphone app's release. Though he has developed a business model for NIN that doesn't include a record label, he still needs distribution portals for their music. NIN fans will go to their website to download music and apps anyway, but the itunes store has a chance to turn new listeners on. However will Trent respond??

Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails plans to join Radiohead in the self-distribution game. Reznor's public feud with Interscope records reached its head recently; the musician was forced to finance the alternate reality game promotion of Year Zero himself and was shocked at the record label's pricing in Australia. With the release of Year Zero Remixed, Reznor will be free to go his own way.

You've probably seen the video of Kirk and Spock set to "Closer." You might not be familiar with the wider world of fanvids, however. It might be "Lost" set to Warren Zevon or "Heroes" set to Jonathan Coulton. Some are slashy, others are just hilarious. And some are really awesome.

Nerds, Nine Inch Nails, and Numbskulls.

Nine Inch Nails live: "Beside You In Time" DVD

JPowers — Fri, 26 Jan 2007 21:12:32 -0800

If anyone can put together a kick-ass concert DVD, it's Trent Reznor. For your consideration: Nine Inch Nail's upcoming "Beside You In Time," which will be released in HD-DVD, Blu-Ray and some format from the late-90's they are referring to as simply DVD (this is apparently the first music DVD ever to be released on all three formats). View the trailer and some clips here in 1080P (if you're computer and eyes can handle it). Or, if you're lucky enough to live in one of the chosen cities, attend a screening.

Streaming Teeth

Free stream of Nine Inch Nail's "With Teeth". Trent and the boys have set up a free stream of next week's long-awaited With Teeth album over on MySpace. More and more major label artists are taking the Wilco approach to giving away content to try and increase sales, with Rachael Yamagata and Deftones side-project Team Sleep also using MySpace.

New Johnny Cash video

New Johnny Cash video This gorgeous rendition of the song, "Hurt" (actually a Nine Inch Nails cover), makes my heart ache. As a longtime Cash fan, I sure hope he knows how much he is loved. I was moved to mail him a card and got the address from his fan site: House of Cash, 700 Johnny Cash Parkway, Hendersonville, TN 37075. Send the Man in Black some love.

Nine Inch Nails gives copyright of song to Black Dog Construction. I don't think so. Visit Black Dog to give a listen to NIN's "Head like a hole." What can be done to protect the rights of the artist?
