NIN BREAKUP

We’re Not In This Together Now

NINE INCH NAILS will split after the release of their forthcoming album YEAR ZERO REMIXED, frontman TRENT REZNOR has revealed. The current lineup of Reznor; drummer Josh Freese; guitarist Aaron North; bassist Jeordie White and keyboardist Alessandro Cortini, played their last gig together in Honolulu in September (07) - and they will disband at the end of 2007. Reznor says, “At this point, I want to switch things around a bit. I see other ways I can present Nine Inch Nails’ material in concert. Something more challenging, something new. I don’t want it to go stale. “The idea of five guys making music for two hours, while it’s the culmination of fine-tuning over a lot of years, has got to change. I want to whittle things down.”

This should be interesting… I’m somewhat disappointed because I really liked the direction they were going. I’m really glad I was able to see them multiple times, thanks to Kristina. I wonder if he’ll do more stuff with Danny Lohner.

BFD.

This is like the third or fourth time that NIN has ‘broken up’.

NIN is nothing more than Trent and whatever studio band he cobbles together to back him up.

*remembers seeing Richard Patrick getting a boot to the head and NIN booed off stage when they opened for Metallica and Guns n’ Roses in ‘89 in Tampa.*

And look how the tables turned. Metallica are a bunch of whiny rich has-beens and G-n-R… well have you seen the bloated carcass of Axel Rose lately?

Hehe… yeah. Wasn’t the best choice of who to open for, given the crowd. Just sayin’ this is hardly the end of NIN. Just the beginnin’ of the next permutation.

Oh I agree. I mean it’s not like Trent is going to stop making music. I really liked their anti-record company promotion they did for their new album.
