Random NIN Thoughts

[Khrz]

wondering if Omega really is "andreaurbanfox"....Trents old trolling/stalker on the interwebs from 2009

Aw damn, and here we thought he was sober for good...

But seriously, this whole thing makes me a bit sad.

I love how this board is a magnet for batshit insane people.

The magnet in you must be the size of Cartman's ass then.

Shall we hit refresh?


I wonder if the full TR score for One Hour Photo will ever come out, considering how he's popular in the score world and Williams is passed away.

[Ryan]

That would be nice. Anything left over from Still would make my day.

Well, Still is left overs from that, The Fragile and DJ noodling (though it deserves a vinyl release dammit Trent), but yeah, the instrumentals we have on there, assuming they're from the score, are arguably some of the best Trent's done not counting Ghosts. Someone like price-gougers Mondo could totally do a release of it.

[gorast]

I would pay very bad, unjustifiable amounts of money if Mondo did a reissue of Still.

It's Mondo, everything is unjustifiable amounts with them :P

[sick among the pure]

Honestly, I think many of us would pay a lot for anything new from that era.
Do we know how much of the score Trent actually completed? I was under the impression that the only fleshed out bits that he made ended up on Still.

[Ryan]

Adrift And At Peace is the sequel to La Mer. Maybe he made a part three called Adrift And At Piss considering all the water you'd be floating on out there. Just a trickling, relaxing sound all throughout the song.

I don't think it's been mentioned {insert leviathant with a link}, but I thought he had the full roughs that were declined, rather than only a couple of tracks?

According to the Access Q&A, he had composed a couple themes for the film, but apparently Mark Romanek and/or the studio didn't care for them, so he ended up reworking them into some of the tracks we hear on Still. It sounds to me like he never actually scored to the film and just came up with some stuff for them to use based on what he knew about the story (ala Girl With The Dragon Tattoo), so I doubt there's a "lost score" that exists. It would be interesting to see if there's anything else he composed that didn't end up on Still, but my guess is that we've heard all there is to hear at this point since he was dropped fairly early in the process.

Side note: I've actually taken those cues from Still and edited them into the movie for my own amusement. I love the score for the film, but they do work really well. It's also interesting to note that La Mer was actually used in the rough cut of the film.

[sheepdean]

I wonder what "a couple" means though. I agree there's not a full score, but there's something, and probably something we've not heard. Though, fuck it, I really just want Still deluxe :P

[Vertigo]

Would be nice to at least have confirmation of exactly which instrumentals are One Hour Photo, Fragile or original. They're all incredible though, and the last two are the reason I was so disappointed with Ghosts. I can't imagine any director hearing them and thinking "no", unless it was for a porno or something (but even then.....).

great, now the next time I watch porn (on a serious Bailey Jay kick), I'm going to put on Losing Hope and cry myself to orgasm

Or maybe Trent should cover her single http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...I7HVXI5HQF7JYS

how did I not know about this. VALUE ADDED, @sheepdean

I take no shame in admitting I have paid for that single

I hate to speculate, but I have to wonder if Trent and Romanek had some sort of falling out. In the Access Q&A, someone asked Trent if he planned on working with him again, and he simply answered "Signs strongly point to no." I know Trent appears on his Director's Label DVD, but the interview looked like it might have been done a while before it actually came out. Again, this is all speculation, but it's hard for me to imagine him turning down Trent's tracks, especially since he used La Mer in the rough cut and knew what Trent was probably going to deliver.

I liked you before, but I like you so much more now. Now I'm curious how many stealth Bailey Jay fans there on this board!

[kel]

i love that the last show i saw has a good, soundboard recording (portland lits).

listening again for the first time in ages.

[Exocet]

10 years ago today( on my 21st birthday) NIN announced their return after a near five year hiatus, the beginning of the With Teeth era, for 2 shows at the London Astoria, the scramble for tickets broke the fucking internet. I got tickets for one show . The other was on Ebay for a crazy price. They sold out in under 5 minutes.

[Inkë]

Reading about The Slip in the Controversial Thread, it reminded me how much I love this album, and especially the four last songs. That's the spookiest sequence of songs Reznor has ever made.

[EndlessLoveless]

I wish i wouldve bought the expensive ghosts box set and not the middle one. I love ghosts.

The expensive box = $300 and is the deluxe, vinyl, art print and signature
Middle = $75. Vinyl = $33.99 (you can still get it). So if you'd pay $200 for a print and a signature, sure, but otherwise I still am happy with my deluxe and vinyl. Even though it's my favourite NIN album.

[Charmingly Miserable]

Speaking of expensive, I bet that Russell Mills Cargo in the Blood book is gonna sit a pretty penny.

The artist and NIN super fan in me are weeping. I want it so bad.

[Charmingly Miserable]

Me too. I'm thinking about turning to a life of low things just to get it. Or, I can save my money. As an artist myself, he is my modern day hero.

Didn't Romanek have some sullen words wrt the WITT video? Although I guess that was before OHP...
