FORMED: 1989, Cleveland, OH

Ten years after Pretty Hate Machine gave a comatose rock
scene some much-needed electro-shock therapy, nine inch
nails' imprint on the genre remains unmatchable. By
popularizing electronic music, nine inch nails auteur Trent
Reznor rewired the mainstream, inspiring Time magazine to
name him "One of the Most Influential People in America,"
and Spin to praise him as "The Most Vital Artist in Music
Today."

The Grammy Award-winning artist is once again forcing the
genre's growth - and his own - by pushing both into new
territory. His latest, The Fragile (dubbed "The Decade's
Most Anticipated Album" by Alternative Press), is a
23-track, double-disc set that clocks in at over 100
minutes of music. Reznor dedicated two solid years to make More...

    Review about Nine Inch Nails

    Geez... | Reviewer: Beatrice Blue
        ------ About artist/band Nine Inch Nails

    Unbelievable. That's all I have to say about Ryan and this topic. Oh, and you want trendy Bush bashing... try a number of Ministry songs, or better yet, see them live while you still can. The hatred just emanates from Uncle Al, even without the words!


    Fucking Awesome... Need I Say More | Reviewer: The Boy On The Computer
        ------ About the song Hurt performed by Nine Inch Nails

    Ghost I-IV got me into NIN and i'm really into the downward spiral at the moment, this song and march of the pigs being my favourites. great work, i love it when he starts whispering, fucking awesome lyrics


    Thanks for that post :obscene_martyr | Reviewer: mikem
        ------ About the song And All That Could Have Been performed by Nine Inch Nails

    Thank you: obscene_martyr for the post
    I have become the destroyer, and never wanted my other to suffer thats why i can't let them in, i have never been able to write those perfact words you have been able to post :obscene_martyr Thanks, for those deep thoughts.


    Amazing | Reviewer: Luna
        ------ About the song Right Where It Belongs performed by Nine Inch Nails

    I find this song amazingly powerful.
    Ive always been inspired by Trent's lyrics...
    To me this song is about people these days thinking that their living such a perfect life, with all their material objects, religion's and money yet continue to look down at those who have fallen behind because of people like that, and its all right where it belongs.
    These people are afraid to see who they really are, their living in an illusion, they have a hollowness inside their heart and even if they have all these so called God's and Devil's their actually really all alone.
    All that in a nutshell i believe it means.

    People are getting way to comfortable with all their material objects, religion's and money that they feel everything is right where it belongs and their afraid to make a change and accept themselves for who they really are and thats why they continue to live in this illusion, its the easy way out, an easier way to be accepted into the world as to what people feel is "right"....

    But that's just my personal opinion, what this song speaks to me.

    I hope many can relate to this because i feel very strongly about this.

    Thankyou.

    beautiful | Reviewer: Yomayo
        ------ About the song And All That Could Have Been performed by Nine Inch Nails

    I actually just found this song, and after hearing/reading the lyrics i was quite amazed. Yes, it relates to me, and gives some emotions, that really make people have nights without sleep...
    Bit too quet in the first 2 minutes, but amazing after that.


    Too Personal | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Every Day Is Exactly The Same performed by Nine Inch Nails

    To me it's about all of humanity and their daily routine. How no one is persuing their dreams anymore, they just go through this daily ritual that never ends. Wake up, groom, go to work in a cubicle, go home, eat a microwave dinner, watch tv, go to bed, repeat process. No one has a life anymore, it's all work work. All work and no play makes you a Dull Boy.


    capital g g is for government | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Capital G performed by Nine Inch Nails

    The "g" means government. " I traded in my god for this one, he signs his name with a capital G" basically as I see it, we are selling our own values and self judgement and subscribing to a fear based rule, putting our faith in a system we all bemoan to be corrupt but we never do anything about it. "Power can corrupt a person, you've never had enough to know what it's like.... nod you head because you know that I'm right" seems to me, "you sold out for a supposed 'saftey' complain about it, but for as bad as we are, you know there is nothing better" lol, love the song. Probably my fave NIN one next to closer.


    my take | Reviewer: base tripp
        ------ About the song Right Where It Belongs performed by Nine Inch Nails

    ok, someone is probobly going to bitch about this, but i personally thing the song is meant to make you think for yourself.. i dont think it has anything to do with religion, or anything of the sort even. i mean, to me its kinda like hes saying stop believing everything you hear, and think for yourself, and not to be afraid to challenge what is accepted as the truth. but anyways, love the song. love the band.


    kate | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Heresy (Version) performed by Nine Inch Nails

    great fucking song... 3rd track from the critically acclaimed "The Downward Spiral" Nine Inch Nails yet again suprise me with this track, the anger,the emotion and the pure greatness of this songs makes it one of my personal favourites from this great album.
    LISTEN!


    definately the best NIN song and stragley, the least recognized | Reviewer: obscene_martyr
        ------ About the song And All That Could Have Been performed by Nine Inch Nails

    I can relate to this song, but I see it as a completely different kind of heart ache. To me, this song is about saving others from yourself. After being slowly destroyed by love and time, you yourself become the destroyer in order to never be the victim again. Caring so much about the one you love that you know that they would be happier w/out you. Thus, setting them free not b/c you don't love them, but b/c you know that if you let them in, they will ultimately become the victim that you always were.


    The quintessential slow song. | Reviewer: Scott
        ------ About the song The Great Below performed by Nine Inch Nails

    Words cannot describe the beauty of this song. It's lyrical ecstasy, complete with all the bells and whistles of beautiful acoustic guitar playing (they remind me of waves, as it should) and mood-enhancing ambiance. Easily the most powerful song Trent has ever written, and one of the best of all time. I cannot speak highly enough of it. If you don't own it, you are missing out very much. I listen to this at least once a day, and before I go to bed. It's so calming...


    my interpretation... | Reviewer: yanga
        ------ About the song Only performed by Nine Inch Nails

    guess you can say i'm catching on late... but i love this song. i took it as a fiend reflecting on the addiction that has developed and recognizing the underlying fact that if they alter their mindset, they can gain their grip on life.


    Trent | Reviewer: trent
        ------ About the song Right Where It Belongs performed by Nine Inch Nails

    Well...i wrote this about World f Warcraft becuase it ruins people's lives...read more into the lyrics. If you listen to the song carefully, towards the end, you can hear world of warcraft sounds in the music.


    Response- Religion and Genericness | Reviewer: ryan
        ------ About the song Right Where It Belongs performed by Nine Inch Nails

    Religion and Genericness reviewer of 2/2/08,
    Its true that people take lyrics and apply them to their lives in lots of ways that are probably totally outside of the artist's intention. Is that a bad thing? Of course if you want to know what the artist was concentrating on, you should delve further in. And the only person who will truly know where the artist was and what the artist was feeling is...... the artist.
    But regardless of that, looking to lyrics to find your own meaning in them is a great way to figure out things about yourself. Why would this be a bad thing? Maybe "genericness" is a bit intriguing. Maybe some songs sound really good and you want to deeply consider the lyrics in inventive and weird ways. In my opinion, thats great.
    Not that it matters, but I don't believe in god. Nevertheless, I still find your take on religion to be a bit shallow and generalizing. If you're trying to escape indoctrination, open your mind, don't close it to entire subjects.


    Religion? Seriously? | Reviewer: Scott
        ------ About the song Right Where It Belongs performed by Nine Inch Nails

    If you think Trent is putting religious undertones in his music, you are sadly mistaken. If his older work is any indicator of his position (which it definitely is), Trent hates the idea of God. If you want an example, listen to Heresy. Or just look up the lyrics. This song isn't about God. 'Nuff said.


    Religion and Genericness (hmm, is that even a word?) | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Right Where It Belongs performed by Nine Inch Nails

    Frank Franks - Your reply is a perfect example of exactly why you shouldn't believe in god. Religion is the root of all evil. You said in it, you are "scared" to ask questions as you have been "taught" not to question your faith while you were young. That just screams indoctrination of children! I cannot believe that people actually force this religious crap on to young children who do not have a choice in the matter. How is telling your kids "now listen up children, there is a giant fairy in the sky who, if you are bad, will send you to a place full of fire and evil things and you will burn there for all eternity." not indoctrination? And how are young children supposed to love and obey this giant sky fairy when he is such a horrible and ruthless bastard? I'm not surprised that you're scared to question your religion, Frank Franks! It is amazing how something that doesn't exist can envoke so much fear in people. Question your religion, take control of your life, go and look at scientific facts, learn about that evil word starting with 'e'.

    Anyway, back on to NIN, his music is awesome, but the religious undertone that a lot of the songs carry can become rather draining and off putting. And maybe we shouldn't try and make sense of the songs. I love it how people try and adapt lyrics to suit their life and the problems they are experiencing, jesus, does no one ever wonder why the songs that people can 'relate' to have the most generic lyrics? Duh! That is how artists sell records people!


    spiritualist | Reviewer: -
        ------ About the song Right Where It Belongs performed by Nine Inch Nails

    To me it seems like the song is about a person who is stuck in material world, maybe a superficial person? He lives his life, goes to work every day, does the same things every day but he's not happy. He's blind.


    It IS About Sex | Reviewer: Black Rose
        ------ About the song Closer performed by Nine Inch Nails

    For those that say it's not about sex, have you even read the lyrics?.

    Most of it is sex how else can these lines not be sex.

    'You let me penetrate you' - this is CLEARLY about sex.

    'I wanna fuck you like an animal
    I wanna feel you from the inside
    I wanna fuck you like an animal'

    That too about sex so OBVIOUSE he's talking about intercourse here, obviousley...

    'It's your sex I can smell'

    Again here he pretty much says it himself, those lyics I've listed couldn't in NO other way be about drugs or any other thing.

    Besides this fact though I like the song it's catchy.



    Here's the facts. | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Hurt performed by Nine Inch Nails

    Here's the facts everyone.

    The NIN album, "The Downward Spiral" was released in 1994. The last song, or the 13th track, is "Hurt."

    Johny Cash's album, "American IV: The Man Comes Around" was released in 2002. The 2nd track "Hurt", THE COVER/REMAKE OF THE ORIGINAL BY NINE INCH NAILS.

    Get it through your fucking skulls. Facts, and it doesn't take but 30 fucking seconds to look this up by yourselves.

    Fuckin' inbred rednecks.


    ...this is right where it belongs.... | Reviewer: brandon
        ------ About the song Right Where It Belongs performed by Nine Inch Nails

    this song is amazing & deep, people don't understand it as much as they should BUT that is kinda a big part of songs like this you take them as you will make them as close as home as you can & make it personal to you & your life as possible, like songs like hurt, witch is about Trent's drug addiction, & many other songs alike.. they have different meaning to them to different people...

    This song for me just helps me to open my eyes to how much i have died on the inside when i look in the mirror i see a broken man that once had it all everything fall on top, now i am left jobless friendless & with brokenness i understand that all of this BS we watch on tv is a lie, its just a fake world we try to live to numb us from the truth so many are blind to.. this world is close to an end are you sure your on the right side??
