How To Destroy Angels

Trent Reznor's new project (it sounds basically like NIN with Trent's wife singing) is called How To Destroy Angels, and they just released their first video. I'm an old-school NIN fan, and I dig it.

LOVE NIN and I also dig this! Thanks for the info!

 

Hope this will have an early NIN feel. I miss the rawness that Pretty Hate Machine and Broken had.
Skeptical- but kinda dug this.

 

It's pretty interesting stuff.

On a side note, I just packed up about 25 NIN shirts to take to Goodwill today. It was actually easier than I thought it would be.

 

there is a small article in the new wired magazine that describes the steps on how they made a song.

 

The name of the band is really lame, as is the music and the clip.

 

I think they stole the name from the early Coil single/ep.

 

how do you really feel?

 

Has reznor been relevant since the downward spiral?
Besides his whole I now look like a gay porn star with my ripped up body and leather sleeveless shirts?

 

I'm an old school NIN fan...

This song isn't anything special, but I enjoyed the video. I'm curious about the EP.

 

Yup. As I recall it consisted of the sound of swords scraping across each other. The album cover said that the music would raise "male sexual energy."

Ah, Coil.

 

Stole is a bit harsh. Trent is talking about collaborating with Peter Christopherson from Coil on the project, and got the name approved before using it:

 

Just comes across as a vanity project to me (and I like early nin)

meanwhile:

If you downloaded the multitrack file of "A Drowning" from remix.nin.com, please re-download it. A background vocal track was missing.

I thought it was pretty cool. I haven't really paid much attention to NIN since I was about 14, so it was refreshing to hear this stuff. I'll probably pick it up if I'm still moved by it upon its release.
