BananaCologne said:

Listening to 'Survivalism', sounds ok so far. Like the music more than the turgid vocals. It's alright though, all in all.

So 'Me, I'm Not' is better?

evenstar3 said:

Looking now as I listen...

seen this? http://www.hollywoodinmem...moriam.htm

Fauxie said:

Well, I prefer that to 'Survivalism' and 'My Violent Heart', although I like them all. But 'Me, I'm Not' and 'In This Twilight' are classic NIN. It all fits into the story though.

BananaCologne said:

I've decided to download them all and give them a proper go listening on headphones. I figure I should at least give this band a chance and see what the fuss is about. It's not really my style, but I'm open to anything.

BananaCologne said:

that's what i meant

it's surreal to go through that with the oscars on tv at the same time...brilliant move on Trent's part.

wow!

I just listened to the four tracks. Not bad. Pretty listenable actually, and this is coming from a non-fan. I actually like 'Survivalism' the most. I will say, however, that the 'industrial beat sample CD' style of the music gets a little tiresome after a while. I think I may start listening to NIN in small measures though.

i thought something along those same lines before listening to 'into the void' for the first time months ago.

spooky's gonna bust a fuckin' nut.

i am so looking forward to this album.

12FU said:

You're right.

FUCKING AMAZING!!!

That's some of the most different nin I've ever heard - Trent's singing is so different - it's amazing!

Spookymuffin said:

the dude can really sing. listen to those high notes!

this is fucking cool.

the drums remind me of "i do not want this".

12FU said:

and the lyrics

evenstar3 said:

if they've been posted already, too bad.

watch the sun,
as it crawls across a final time
and it feels like,
like it was a friend.
it is watching us,
and the world we set on fire
do you wonder,
if it feels the same?

and the sky is filled with light
can you see it?
all the black is really white
if you believe it
as your time is running out
let me take away your doubt
you can find a better place
in this twilight

dust to dust,
ashes in your hair remind me
what it feels like
and I won't feel again
night descends
could I have been a better person
if I could only do it all again

and the sky is filled with light
can you see it?
all the black is really white
if you believe it
and the longing that you feel
you know none of this is real
you will find a better place
in the twilight

ok. i fucking love "in this twilight".

12FU said:

me too. i just wish it was a little longer, but still...

evenstar3 said:

i think it works, just never can get enough.

evenstar3 said:

I love it - it's like the Gorillaz but fucking awesome.

Spookymuffin said:

stop comparing it to the gorillaz!

i wanna hear the rest of the album already.

evenstar3 said:

take out the vocals and strip back the layers and it could've been on tds.

gorillaz i don't see, but it is an evolution for trent. definitely.

I love this pumped up trent...he's hot being so butch and muscular!

Spookymuffin said:

I am so gonna brick your fucking testicles together for that when I see you!

BananaCologne said:

do it!!

evenstar3 said:

Oh don't worry, he'll be an eunuch in no time at all and singing 'Closer' ala castrato on thursday at the NIN gig if he keeps this up. Gorrilaz my ass. Fucker.

In the meantime, enjoy this - Survivalism's live debut in Barcelona 19.02.07

BananaCologne said:

that'll teach him.

great vid makes me wish i could be in europe to see a show, though. have you seen one where just before he starts the song he introduces it by saying it's from "the new album, which comes out in april but you can probably steal in a few weeks"?

evenstar3 said:

Yeah - it's exactly the same show, just with the comments clipped. I chose that version as it had better sound.
