<p>Scicks: /* Career */</p>
<hr />
<div>'''Richard Patrick''' (born May 10, 1968) is a former guitarist for [[Nine Inch Nails]]. He has played the guitar since the age of nine and names The Cure, U2, and Stone Temple Pilots as primary musical influences, specifically the inventive use of technology and flood sounds used by those artists.<br />
<br />
==Career==<br />
Patrick spent two and a half years as the touring guitarist in NIN and can be seen in the videos for "[[Down In It (song)|Down In It]]," "[[Head Like A Hole (song)|Head Like A Hole]]," "[[Wish]]," and "[[Gave Up]]." His only recorded contribution—a droning guitar sound—can be heard at the end of "[[Sanctified]]" on ''[[Pretty Hate Machine]].'' He chose to leave the band during the recording of ''[[The Downward Spiral (halo)|The Downward Spiral]]'' in 1993 due in part to [[Trent Reznor]] not allowing him any creative input or musical contributions, as well as often taking a lot of onstage physical abuse from Reznor.<br />
<br />
Patrick went on to form his own industrial rock band, [[Filter]], with [[Brian Liesegang]] and have released four albums: ''Short Bus'' (1995), ''Title of Record'' (1999), ''The Amalgamut'' (2002), and ''Anthems For The Damned'' (2008).<br />
<br />
In 2005 Patrick also formed the band Army of Anyone with the DeLeo brothers of Stone Temple Pilots and in late 2006 the band released their eponymous album.<br />

}}'''"Big Man With A Gun"''' is the ninth track on The Downward Spiral and is the most violent song on the entire album, and arguably, in NIN's entire discography.<br />
<br />
It is rumored that the sound effect at the beginning of the song is an adult film actress in the throes of passion. The sound was reportedly run through a program by [[Tommy Lee]], who called the resulting sound "Steakhouse."<br />
<br />
===Meaning===<br />
On the surface, it appears to be about a man forcing someone at gunpoint to fellate him, but [[Trent Reznor]] has said that it's more of a commentary on the glorification of violence in mainstream rap music at the time.<br />
<br />
===Song Credits===<br />
*Production: Trent Reznor<br />
*Mixing engineers: [[Bill Kennedy]], [[Sean Beavan]]<br />
*Additional guitars: [[Danny Lohner]]<br />

===Big Man With A Gun (''The Downward Spiral 2004 re-release'')===<br />
In the 5.1 surround edition of the 2004 re-release of ''The Downward Spiral'', the scream heard at the beginning is replaced with surreal and abstract voice samples, which echo around the speakers.<br />
<br />
==Live==<br />
"Big Man With A Gun" has been played live on the Self Destruct Tour.<br />
<br />
==Lyrics==<br />
I am a big man<br />
(Yes I am)<br />
And I have a big gun<br />
Got me a big old dick and I<br />
I like to have fun<br />
Held against your forehead<br />
I’ll make you suck it<br />
Maybe I’ll put a hole in your head<br />
You know, just for the fuck of it<br />
<br />
I can reduce you if I want<br />
I can devour<br />
I’m hard as fucking steel, and I’ve got the power<br />
I’m every inch a man, and I’ll show you somehow<br />
Me and my fucking gun<br />
Nothing can stop me now<br />
<br />
Shoot shoot shoot shoot shoot<br />
I’m going to come all over you<br />
<br />
Me and my fucking gun<br />
Me and my fucking gun<br />

<br />
On August 13th, 1994 [[Nine Inch Nails]] took part in the '''Woodstock Music and Art Festival.''' Their performance is considered one of the best in the band's history, despite the band's opinion that it was one of their worst. They took the stage covered head-to-toe in mud. This single performance is widely accepted as the one that made the band famous.<br />
<br />
==Notes==<br />
Before "[[Burn]]" was performed, [[Trent Reznor]] said:<br />
Oh, this is fucking weird… This is something new from us… This is from ''Natural Born Killers,''<br />
it's called "Burn."<br />
<br />
After "[[Down In It (song)|Down In It]]" was performed, Trent Reznor said:<br />
You guys having a good time? When we said we'd do this fucking thing...I was kinda worried that it would suck, but...<br />
I think it's turned out to be a pretty cool thing. (coughs) I've got mud in my fucking eyes.<br />
Plus, I got the chance to say the word "fuck" on Pay-Per-View. FUCK!<br />
<br />
Then, "[[Dead Souls]]" began, and Reznor said:<br />
This is something we did for ''The Crow.''<br />
<br />
==Lineup==<br />
*'''[[Robin Finck]]:''' Guitar, backing vocals<br />
*'''[[Danny Lohner]]:''' Bass, guitar, keyboards, backing vocals<br />
*'''Trent Reznor:''' Vocals, guitar, keyboards<br />
*'''[[Chris Vrenna]]:''' Drums<br />
*'''[[James Woolley]]:''' Keyboards, backing vocals<br />
<br />

# "[[Head Like A Hole (song)|Head Like A Hole]]"<br />
<br />
==Video==<br />
There is a video for the "Happiness In Slavery" performance that has long circulated the internet through p2p and sites like YouTube. This version is heavily dubbed or poorly mixed, so much that Trent banging on the keyboards cannot be heard. The beginning has sounds from "Pinion" and the end is "Head Like A Hole," including the scene of comedian Calvert DeForest (1922–2007) announcing the band. Part of the performance also appears on [[Closure]].<br />
<br />
==Bootlegs==<br />
Many bootlegs exist for this performance. On one such bootleg, titled ''When The Whip Come Down,'' the liner notes contain the following description:<br />
:''Like creatures from the black lagoon they slunk on stage, caked head to toe in mud looking like they had just risen from the pits of hell. Nine Inch Nails, without doubt, proved to be the most successful show of the entire festival. They went hell for leather like there was no tomorrow, nothing could stop Trent Reznor and his crew, it was Apocalypse Now brought to life in a field in Saugerties and being transmitted worldwide by pay as you view cable to millions in the safe confines of their own homes. You had to be there as the rain fell to appreciate the sheer beauty of the Nine Inch Nails killing machine on its own out of control rampage. Take no prisoners was the saying of the day as victims fell on all side. Any act that makes even David Letterman sit up and take notice has got to be doing something right. Nine Inch Nails are like taking a helter skelter ride through a tunnel of broken glass. Nine Inch Nails will shred your soul.''<br />

<div>[[Image:Purest_feeling.jpg|thumb|"Purest Feeling" Bootleg]]<br />
'''''Purest Feeling''''' is a bootleg of the original demo version of [[Nine Inch Nails]]' debut album, ''[[Pretty Hate Machine]],'' that was recorded at the Right Track Studio in November 1988 by [[Trent Reznor]] while he was still working as a technician there. It was released as a CD in 1994 by Hawk Records.<br />
<br />
The sound is brighter (and in some cases happier) than that of the final versions on ''Pretty Hate Machine;'' several songs feature more drumming and guitar work throughout, as well as a heavier use of samples from films. "[[Kinda I Want To]]" is reminiscent of early house music. "[[Twist]]" is an early version of "[[Ringfinger]]," featuring different lyrics and less use of sample loops. The entire album has segues leading each track into the next.<br />
<br />
''Purest Feeling'' also features the full lyrics cut from the final versions of songs later released on ''Pretty Hate Machine;'' Reznor chose to print the full lyrics in the ''Pretty Hate Machine'' booklet to retain some of the original meanings of his songs.<br />
<br />
Material off of ''Purest Feeling'' was performed live in 1988 on Nine Inch Nails' first shows opening for [[Skinny Puppy]] on the [[VIVIsectVI Tour]].<br />
<br />
A remastered version of this bootleg is available from [[The Webpit]].<br />

<div>[[Image:Yearzero_cover.jpg|thumb|200px|Halo 24: ''Year Zero'']]<br />
<br />
'''''Year Zero''''' (also known as '''''[[Halo numbers|Halo 24]]''''' or ''Year Zero: Zero-Gen-Ten'' in Japan) is the sixth studio album by [[Nine Inch Nails]], released on April 13, 2007 in the UK and Europe, and April 17, 2007 worldwide, by [[Interscope Records]]. It was produced by [[Nine Inch Nails]] frontman [[Trent Reznor]] in collaboration with [[Alan Moulder]] and engineer [[Atticus Ross]], both of whom worked in a similar capacity on Nine Inch Nails' previous major studio release, ''[[With Teeth (halo)|With Teeth]].'' Mastering was done by Brian "Big Bass" Gardner. <br />
<br />
In a 2005 interview with [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerrang%21 Kerrang!], Reznor expressed his intentions to write material for a new release during the ''With Teeth'' tour, and it was confirmed that he was working on it by September 2006. ''Year Zero'' began its mixing stage in January of 2007, and Reznor stated on his Spiral blog that the album was finished as of February 5, 2007.<br />
<br />
A string of mysterious websites are being discovered around the internet related to the album. Learn more at the [[Year Zero Research]] page.<br />
<br />
==Trent Reznor on ''Year Zero''==<br />
"''This record began as an experiment with noise on a laptop in a bus on tour somewhere. That sound led to a daydream about the end of the world. That daydream stuck with me and over time revealed itself to be much more. I believe sometimes you have a choice in what inspiration you choose to follow and other times you really don't. This record is the latter. Once I tuned into it, everything fell into place... as if it were meant to be. With a framework established, the songs were very easy to write. Things started happening in my "real" life that blurred the lines of what was fiction and what wasn't. The record turned out to be more than a just a record in scale, as you will see over time.''<br />
<br />
''Part one is year zero. Concept record. Sixteen tracks. All written and performed by me, produced / programmed by me and Atticus Ross, mixed by Alan Moulder, mastered by Brian "Big Bass" Gardner. Release date: April 17, 2007.''<br />
<br />
''What's it about? Well, it takes place about fifteen years in the future. Things are not good. If you imagine a world where greed and power continue to run their likely course, you'll have an idea of the backdrop. The world has reached the breaking point - politically, spiritually and ecologically. Written from various perspectives of people in this world, "year zero" examines various viewpoints set against an impending moment of truth. How does it sound? You will hear for yourself soon enough, but given the point of this document is to provide information...''<br />
<br />
''This record is much more of a "sound collage" than recent efforts from me.<br />
<br />
''A lot of it was improvised.''<br />
<br />
''It is very tedious describing your own music.''<br />
<br />
''It's not just music.''<br />
<br />
''It's probably too long, but it felt like the right thing to do to paint the complete picture.''<br />
<br />
''It will sound different after a few listens.''<br />
<br />
''You can think about it and it will reveal more than you were expecting.''<br />
<br />
''You can dance to a lot of it.''<br />
<br />
''You can fuck to a lot of it (maybe all of it depending on what you're into)''[http://www.xtaster.co.uk/feature_detail.php?id=13688]."<br />

==Regarding the leak==<br />
On April 1, 2007 a bootleg recording of the Chicago, Illinois listening party of March 18, 2007 surfaced on several peer-to-peer networks. The quality of the recording is very low and it is apparent that whoever made the recording did not have very good sound capturing equipment, presumably a cellphone.<br />
<br />
On April 4, 2007 a high-quality leak of the promotional disc supplied to listening parties was also leaked onto peer-to-peer networks. Perhaps to counteract and discourage any piracy of the leak, the entire album was made available for free streaming on the album's official website later that afternoon. Shortly after the stream was made available, high-quality leaks found their way to various sites and P2P networks.<br />
<br />
Perhaps in another response to the leak, Reznor commissioned Q101 in Chicago to play the entire album on their radio station.<br />
<br />
It is widely regarded however that Reznor himself was responsible for leaking the album as a result of his unappreciation for RIAA's Cease & Desist warrants issued to various websites that hosted free downloads of the 4 USB "leaks". Reznor's own involvement with the leak, however, will always be speculation at best due to his own legal liability.<br />

<br />
'''Darren Kroupa''' was a [[Nine Inch Nails]] fan who [http://www.thnt.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/B3/20070403/OBITUARIES/704030364/1069/OBITS passed away] April 1st, 2007.<br />
<br />
Darren became well known to NIN fans on two occasions. First, he appeared on a [http://www.nin.com/current/photos/1_26_07.jpg photo] on the NIN current page. At the time, nothing was known about him. His name then showed up as part of the story on one of the World of Year Zero websites, [[Secure Broadcast Informatics]], where he was a dissident who organized underground concerts and engaged in other "illegal" activities.<br />
<br />
It is now understood that, as a gesture of [http://www.francesfoundation.net The Frances Foundation], Darren Kroupa met [[Trent Reznor]] and Nine Inch Nails in the studio, and became a good friend to the band. It is thought that he may have been the first person outside of the NIN-Camp to hear [[Year Zero]].<br />
<br />
The thoughts and prayers of all Nine Inch Nails fans go out to Darren's family and friends.<br />

<br />
"'''Pinion'''" is a very simplistic track that begins the ''[[Broken|Broken EP]]''. It features a pulsing drone the eventually picks up and leads into "[[Wish]]".<br />
<br />
===Song Credits===<br />
*Production: [[Trent Reznor]]<br />
<br />
==Music Video==<br />
The video for "Pinion", released in 1992, was directed by Eric Goode and Serge Becker, who also directed "[[Help Me I Am In Hell]]".<br />
<br />
The video was filmed entirely in black-and-white and starts in a restroom. The camera focuses on a toilet containing a dark substance, typically assumed to be blood. The water and the substance are flushed down as the camera follows. As the viewer is led through the pipes to see where the water is going, the camera cuts between exterior views and interior views of the pipes. As the music crescendoes, the water pressure increases. Finally the camera comes to a white room as water is pumped through a pressurized machine, which is forcing the water into the mouth of a figure that is blindfolded, bound completely in vinyl (or patent leather) and strapped to the wall.<br />
<br />
Because of the distubing nature of the video, MTV would only play it late at night before removing it altogether. However, part of the video's finale became an integral part of the opening sequence for the network's "Alternative Nation."<br />
<br />
The video is feature on both ''[[Closure]]'' and ''[[Broken Movie|The Broken Movie]]''.<br />
<br />
==Live Pre-Recording==<br />
Recordings of this song have been played as the introduction as the band takes the stage, sometimes with live vocals "FLUSH! FLUSH! FLUSH! FLUSH!" It was combined with the beat of [[Terrible Lie]] to open [[Woodstock]]. It was combined with [[The New Flesh]] to open [[Fragility]] shows. A very short version began [[KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas]], presumably because they were behind schedule in setting up the stage.<br />

<br />
'''''Gave Up''''' is the 6th track off the 1992 [[Broken]] EP. It continues the EP's musical themes of being loud and aggressive, as well as showing themes of nihilism, self-loathing, and chaos in the lyrics.<br />
<br />
===Appearances===<br />
Gave up appears in some form on the following albums:<br />
*[[Broken]]<br />
*[[Fixed]]<br />
*[[And All That Could Have Been (halo)|And All That Could Have Been]]<br />
*[[Beside You In Time (halo)|Beside You In Time]]<br />

===Versions===<br />
There are only two versions of this song.<br />

*Gave Up (remixed by Coil, Danny Hyde)<br />
<br />
===Song Credits===<br />
*Production: [[Flood]], [[Trent Reznor]]<br />
<br />
==Music Video==<br />
There are two videos for "Gave Up:" a performance video directed by [[Jon Reiss]] ("[[Happiness In Slavery]]"), and the finale to the [[Broken Movie]], directed by [[Peter Christopherson]].<br />
<br />
The video directed by Reiss, as stated earlier, is a performance video. It features the band ([[Trent Reznor|Reznor]], [[Richard Patrick]], [[Chris Vrenna]], and [[James Woolley]]) along with [[Marilyn Manson]] performing the song in a studio at the notorious [[Tate Mansion]].<br />
<br />
The video directed by Christopherson is the finale to the Broken Movie. The victim is strung up to the ceiling and burned and beaten. He is then taken down and tied to a board, where the killer takes a chainsaw to the victim's appendages. The killer unmasks himself, revealing his identity in the victim's final moments. After having his way with the dying victim, the killer cuts out the victim's heart and eats it. All the while, Reznor can be seen on the television singing the song. Intercut with the violence is footage of various body parts in freezers and the fridge, a police officer (played by either Patrick or Robert Patrick) coming into the crime scene, and a crowd of rubbernecking bystanders.<br />
<br />
==Performed Live==<br />
Gave Up has seen regular playing time in live shows since it's debut in 1994. When performed live, the high pitched "smashed-up" chorus is pre-recorded with the band members lightly whispering over it.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Lyrics ==<br />
Perfect little dream the kind that hurts the most<br />
Forgot how it feels well almost<br />
No one to blame always the same<br />
Open my eyes wake up in flames<br />
<br />
It took you to make me realize<br />
It took you to make me realize<br />
It took you to make me realize<br />
It took you to make me see the light<br />
Smashed up my sanity<br />
Smashed up integrity<br />
Smashed up what I believed in<br />
Smashed up what’s left of me<br />
Smashed up my everything<br />
Smashed up all that was true<br />
Gonna smash myself to pieces<br />
I don’t know what else to do<br />
<br />
Covered in hope and Vaseline<br />
Still cannot fix this broken machine<br />
Watching the hole it used to be mine<br />
Just watching it burn in my steady systematic decline<br />
Of the trust I will betray<br />
Give it to me I throw it away<br />
After everything I’ve done I hate myself for what I’ve become<br />
<br />
I tried<br />
I gave up<br />
<br />
Throw it away<br />

<br />
'''''Help Me I Am In Hell''''' is track 4 on [[Broken]]. The song is very minimalistic, featuring a simplistic guitar part repeated - eventually building up (with background thunder) and leading into [[Happiness In Slavery]].<br />
<br />
===Song Credits===<br />
*Production: [[Trent Reznor]]<br />
<br />
==Music Video==<br />
"Help Me I Am In Hell" was directed by [[Eric Goode]] and [[Serge Becker]], who also directed "[[Wish]]." The black-and-white video features a man eating a steak and drinking red wine while surrounded by thousands of flies. The man seems oblivious to the flies as they drown in his wine, eat his steak, and swarm around him, crawling close to his eyes and into his mouth. As the song builds, the man has visions of himself in sadomasochistic regalia, wearing a horse's bridle and blinders. As the song begins to decrescendo, the camera zooms out as the man continues with his meal.<br />
<br />
==Performed live==<br />
This song is typically featured as an instrumental lead-in. In the past it lead into Happiness In Slavery (as they appear on the album), but recently it has been used before [[Non-Entity]] and [[Eraser]].<br />

"'''Happiness In Slavery'''" is the fifth track on the [[Broken]] EP. The song sounds very industrial like and features heavy guitars, drums and very casual lyrical delivery while maintaining an intense sound.<br />

<br />
==Music Video==<br />
[[Jon Reiss]] directed the award-winning "Happiness In Slavery" video, which was released in 1992. Shot entirely in black-and-white, the video's stark contrasts and stunning visual effects leave a memorable imprint to the viewer. <br />
<br />
'''SPOILERS BEGIN'''<br><br />
A man (played by performance artist [[Bob Flanagan]], 1952–1996) enters a room. He's dressed in a suit and tie and surveys the room before placing a flower in a small vase on a shelf and lighting a candle next to it. He then undresses, carefully folding each piece and placing it on a table under the shelf. Now completely nude, he walks over to a small wash basin, above which is a mirror. He dips a washcloth into the water and cleans himself, then pauses and looks in the mirror. He then walks over to a strange device in the middle of the room and lies down on it.<br />
<br />
Suddenly the device springs to life and the man is in a reclining position. Shackles come down over his wrists and ankles as needles start poking into his hands. He looks on with anticipation and reacts with both pain and pleasure. A clamp and pincer begins to pull at the mans genitalia. More pincers begin pulling at his skin and ripping it out, which seems to be bringing the man an increasing amount of pleasure. Drills emerge and drill into his flesh at various points, with the blood dripping to the floor. The floor seems to be made out of dirt and there is a strange little garden underneath the device that seems to be fertilized by blood.<br />
<br />
Finally, grinders emerge and grind at the man's skin. There is a final flurry of pain and ecstasy before he is finally dead. The machine then engulfs the man's body, grinding it into a fertilizer for the garden. The machinery has washed itself and awaits the next victim.<br />
<br />
At the end of the video, another man (Reznor), dressed in similar attire, enters the room, and begins the same ritual as the previous man.<br><br />
'''SPOILERS END'''<br />
<br />
The video was universally banned due to its extreme violence and full-frontal nudity. There is a rumor that the only part of the video that was not real was the final sequence in which the man is engulfed by the machine. In reality, the poking and pulling were pretty much the only "real" aspects to the video. Reiss is fascinated with hydraulics, and it clearly shows with this video. The blood and gore were created by mashing bananas and mixing them with chocolate. This would look more realistic when photographed in black-and-white.<br />
<br />
==Lyrics==<br />
Slave screams he thinks he knows what he wants<br />
Slave screams thinks he has something to say<br />
Slave screams he hears but doesn’t want to listen<br />
Slave screams he’s being beat into submission<br />
<br />
Don’t open your eyes you won’t like what you see<br />
The devils of truth steal the souls of the free<br />
Don’t open your eyes, take it from me<br />
I have found<br />
You can find<br />
Happiness in slavery<br />
<br />
Slave screams he spends his life learning conformity<br />
Slave screams he claims he has his own identity<br />
Slave screams he’s going to cause the system to fall<br />
Slave screams but he’s glad to be chained to that wall<br />
<br />
Don’t open your eyes you won’t like what you see<br />
The blind have been blessed with security<br />
Don’t open your eyes, take it from me<br />
I have found<br />
You can find<br />
Happiness in slavery<br />
<br />
I don’t know what I am I don’t know where I’ve been<br />
Human junk just words and so much skin<br />
Stick my hands through the cage of this endless routine<br />
Just some flesh caught in this big broken machine<br />

<br />
''Wish'' is the second track from the 1992 [[Broken]] EP, and displays that era's characteristic aggression and abrasive guitar attack. The song won a [[Grammy Awards|Grammy]] for 'Best Metal Performance'. It keeps with the general mood of the [[Broken]] EP and includes numerous angry and self-deprecating lyrical passages, but unlike other songs, also shows a desire for something more.<br />

In 1992 the video for "Wish" premiered. It was directed by [[Peter Christopherson]], who also directed "[[March Of The Pigs (song)|March Of The Pigs]]" and the infamous [[Broken Movie]].<br />
<br />
The video features the band performing in a rather ornate cage. Outside of the cage is a mob that seems determined to get into the cage and attack the band. The finale of the video shows the mob accosting the band through the bars, grabbing at them and attempting to bind them. Ultimately, they break through the chain keeping the band locked inside and storm in, wielding baseball bats and other crude weapons. MTV felt that the ending scene was too violent and alternate footage was used for network airplay.<br />
<br />
The video can also be found on the "Broken Movie." The only major difference is that footage from the movie can be seen during the video's interlude.<br />
<br />
==Performed Live==<br />
Wish has become a staple of the Nine Inch Nails live shows, performed at nearly every show, due to it's high energy and guitar-oriented structure.<br />

"'''Survivalism'''" is the third track on the 2007 release ''[[Year Zero]].''<br />
<br />
Survivalism is the belief that one must be prepared to survive a major catastrophe by stocking up on food and weapons. A survivalist therefore is a person who anticipates and prepares for a future disruption in local, regional or worldwide social or political order. Survivalists often prepare for this anticipated disruption by learning skills (e.g., emergency medical training), stockpiling food and water, or building structures that will help them to survive (e.g., an underground shelter).<br />
<br />
On March 13, the source files for the song were released in GarageBand format at nin.com. According to the site, the source files of all songs from Year Zero will be made available to download, free of charge. Survivalism is the third NIN song to be officially released as source files - [[Only]] and [[The Hand That Feeds]] were previously released.<br />

Filming for the "Survivalism" video began on February 5, 2007. The video was "leaked" to the internet via flash drives given to people attending the Nine Inch Nails concert in London on March 7, 2007.<br />
<br />
'''SPOILERS BEGIN'''<br><br />
A wall of surveillance monitors details the activities of several people. A group of rebels is creating stencils and spray-painting the "Art Is Resistance" logo on walls. In an apartment, a pair of gay lovers share an intimate moment. In another dwelling, a young asian woman stands topless at her mirror doing her hair and applying make-up. Elsewhere someone is high on drugs, while a couple just sits on their couch in their home. A man is seen on a [http://theninhotline.net/sets.jpg computer] with several photos and [http://www.ninwiki.com/Image:Exodus_721.JPG news clippings]behind him. Another man is seen on camera eating his dinner. Seen on several monitors is Nine Inch Nails playing the song in what is assumed to be their practice space. Intercut with these scenes is footage of armed soldiers, dressed like swat members, moving in on one of the buildings and one of the places in the video. <br />
<br />
At the end of the video the people in the other monitors seem to respond to an ado in one of the spaces seen on the monitor wall. The space where NIN was playing has its door busted in and a pool of blood leading out, while all of the other cameras trained on the band have gone to static. At the very end a body is seen being dragged around a corner, leaving a trail of blood. Presumably the body is that of [[Trent Reznor]], as it wears the same scarf that he is seen wearing throughout the video.<br><br />
'''END SPOILERS'''<br />
<br />
====Notes====<br />
* The graffiti wall has "Isaiah 15:9" written on it. The biblical verse for this is: "For the waters of Dimon shall be full of blood: for I will bring more upon Dimon, lions upon him that escapeth of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land."<br />
* The picture of Jesus in the "TV Room" has "John 19:34" written on it. The biblical verse for this is: "But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water."<br />
* "Exodus 7:21" is visible in the room with the man on the computer. The biblical verse for this is: "And the fish that [was] in the river died; and the river stank, and the Egyptians could not drink of the water of the river; and there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt." <br />
* "II Kings 3:22" is visible in the room with the man on the computer. The biblical verse for this is: "And they rose up early in the morning, and the sun shone upon the water, and the Moabites saw the water on the other side as red as blood."<br />
* The door knocked in has "Rev 18.3.4" painted on its exterior. The biblical verses Revelation 18:3 and 18:4 are: "For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies," and "And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues."<br />

== Lyrics ==<br />
I should have listened to her<br />
So hard to keep control<br />
We kept on eating but<br />
Our bloated belly's still not full<br />
She gave us all she had but<br />
We went and took some more<br />
Can't seem to shut her legs<br />
Our mother nature is a whore<br />
<br />
I got my propaganda<br />
I got revisionism<br />
I got my violence<br />
In high-def ultra-realism<br />
All a part of this great nation<br />
I got my fist<br />
I got my plan<br />
I got survivalism<br />
<br />
Hypnotic sound of siren<br />
Echoing through the street<br />
The cocking of the rifles<br />
The marching of the feet<br />
You see your world on fire<br />
Don't try to act surprised<br />
We did just what you told us<br />
Lost our faith along the way and found ourselves believing your lies<br />
<br />
I got my propaganda<br />
I got revisionism<br />
I got my violence<br />
In high-def ultra-realism<br />
All a part of this great nation<br />
I got my fist<br />
I got my plan<br />
I got survivalism<br />
<br />
All bruised and broken, bleeding<br />
She asked to take my hand<br />
I turned, just keep on walking<br />
But you'd do the same thing in this circumstance I'm sure you'll understand<br />
<br />
I got my propaganda<br />
I got revisionism<br />

"'''Survivalism'''" is the third track on the 2007 release ''[[Year Zero]].''<br />
<br />
Survivalism is the belief that one must be prepared to survive a major catastrophe by stocking up on food and weapons. A survivalist therefore is a person who anticipates and prepares for a future disruption in local, regional or worldwide social or political order. Survivalists often prepare for this anticipated disruption by learning skills (e.g., emergency medical training), stockpiling food and water, or building structures that will help them to survive (e.g., an underground shelter).<br />
<br />
On March 13, the source files for the song were released in GarageBand format at nin.com. According to the site, the source files of all songs from Year Zero will be made available to download, free of charge. Survivalism is the third NIN song to be officially released as source files - [[Only]] and [[The Hand That Feeds]] were the previous songs.<br />

Filming for the "Survivalism" video began on February 5, 2007. The video was "leaked" to the internet via flash drives given to people attending the Nine Inch Nails concert in London on March 7, 2007.<br />
<br />
'''SPOILERS BEGIN'''<br><br />
A wall of surveillance monitors details the activities of several people. A group of rebels is creating stencils and spray-painting the "Art Is Resistance" logo on walls. In an apartment, a pair of gay lovers share an intimate moment. In another dwelling, a young asian woman stands topless at her mirror doing her hair and applying make-up. Elsewhere someone is high on drugs, while a couple just sits on their couch in their home. A man is seen on a [http://theninhotline.net/sets.jpg computer] with several photos and [http://www.ninwiki.com/Image:Exodus_721.JPG news clippings]behind him. Another man is seen on camera eating his dinner. Seen on several monitors is Nine Inch Nails playing the song in what is assumed to be their practice space. Intercut with these scenes is footage of armed soldiers, dressed like swat members, moving in on one of the buildings and one of the places in the video. <br />
<br />
At the end of the video the people in the other monitors seem to respond to an ado in one of the spaces seen on the monitor wall. The space where NIN was playing has its door busted in and a pool of blood leading out, while all of the other cameras trained on the band have gone to static. At the very end a body is seen being dragged around a corner, leaving a trail of blood. Presumably the body is that of [[Trent Reznor]], as it wears the same scarf that he is seen wearing throughout the video.<br><br />
'''END SPOILERS'''<br />
<br />
====Notes====<br />
* The graffiti wall has "Isaiah 15:9" written on it. The biblical verse for this is: "For the waters of Dimon shall be full of blood: for I will bring more upon Dimon, lions upon him that escapeth of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land."<br />
* The picture of Jesus in the "TV Room" has "John 19:34" written on it. The biblical verse for this is: "But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water."<br />
* "Exodus 7:21" is visible in the room with the man on the computer. The biblical verse for this is: "And the fish that [was] in the river died; and the river stank, and the Egyptians could not drink of the water of the river; and there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt." <br />
* "II Kings 3:22" is visible in the room with the man on the computer. The biblical verse for this is: "And they rose up early in the morning, and the sun shone upon the water, and the Moabites saw the water on the other side as red as blood."<br />
* The door knocked in has "Rev 18.3.4" painted on its exterior. The biblical verses Revelation 18:3 and 18:4 are: "For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies," and "And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues."<br />
* One room shows a couple injecting [[opal]]<br />

Hold it close<br />

I've watched this scene a thousand times<br />
And in my head<br />
This is how it all begins<br />
Yes, I am becoming<br />
And this is how it all begins<br />
What did you expect?<br />
This is not an exit<br />
This has begun<br />

The new flesh<br />
A new disguise<br />

==About==<br />
'''''Sin''''' is the seventh track on the 1989 release ''[[Pretty Hate Machine]].'' Obviously, this song is about sex, visceral desires, lust and guilt. Remixes were featured on the ''[[Sin (halo)|Sin]]'' single along with a B-side (a cover of Queen's "[[Get Down, Make Love]]"). The song is often amped up live to a more danceable version of the song.<br />
<br />

*Remix: [[Keith LeBlanc]]<br />
*Engineering: John Fryer, Keith LeBlanc, [[Kennan Keating]], [[Ken Quartarone]]<br />

==Versions==<br />
===Sin===<br />
This is the original album version<br />
<br />
===Sin (Dub)===<br />
This remix is almost completely stripped of lyrics, save for the words "sin," "control," and "lies" scattered throughout the track.<br />
<br />
===Sin (Long)===<br />
At nearly six minutes long, this remix has extended instrumentals.<br />
<br />
===Sin (Short)===<br />
This remix incorporates some of the elements of the "Long" and "Dub" remixes, but it has a more drawn-out outro. This version is used in the music video.<br />
<br />
==Live==<br />
Coming soon.<br />
<br />
==Music Video==<br />
A video was released in 1990, using the "(Short)" remix of the song. It was directed by [[Brett Turnbull]]. The video features featured two girls dancing with each other at the beginning before cutting to the main focus of the video. A woman, nude except for what looks like straps to spelunking gear and a halogen lamp, walking a shirtless, wrist-bound [[Trent Reznor]] with a bag over his head through what looks like an industrial warehouse complex. He is then strapped into a large rotary harness where she spins him throughout the remainder of the video. These scenes are intercut with two young gay lovers who eventually fight and make up, a man and woman wearing ritualistic dressings and dancing, as well as visuals of a pierced penis and clitoris, all reflecting the song's dark, sexual aspects.<br />
<br />
The video was banned from MTV and most major outlets. A partial version of the video can be found on ''[[Closure]]''. There were reports that the complete video was shown at dance clubs in the early 1990s and can now be found on the [[NINternet]].<br />
<br />
==Lyrics==<br />
You give me the reason <br />
You give me control<br />
I gave you my Purity<br />
My Purity you stole<br />
Did you think I wouldn’t recognize this compromise<br />
Am I just to stupid to realize<br />
Stale incense old sweat and lies lies lies<br />
<br />
It comes down to this<br />
Your kiss<br />
Your fist<br />
And your strain<br />
It gets under my skin<br />
Within<br />
Take in<br />
The extent of my sin<br />
<br />
You give me the anger<br />
You give me the nerve<br />
Carry out my sentence<br />
I get what I deserve<br />
I’m just an effigy to be defaced<br />
To be disgraced<br />
Your need for me has been replaced<br />
And if I can’t have everything well then just give me a taste<br />
<br />
It comes down to this<br />
Your kiss<br />
Your fist<br />
And your strain<br />
It gets under my skin<br />
Within<br />
Take in<br />
The extent of my sin<br />

Marilyn Manson
2007-03-04T12:53:51Z
<p>Scicks: /* Trivia */ Added Manson shirt reference</p>
<hr />
<div>[[Image:MansonReznor.jpg|thumb|300px|Manson singing "[[Starfuckers, Inc.]]" with [[Trent Reznor]] during [[Fragility v2.0]] at Madison Square Garden in 2000.]]<br />
<br />
'''Brian Hugh Warner''' (stage name '''Marilyn Manson''') is the lead singer and shock artist of the band '''Marilyn Manson''' formed in 1989. In 1993, the band signed onto [[Nothing Records]] after [[Trent Reznor]] became impressed by their music. Reznor had a heavy hand in producing the records ''Portrait of an American Family'' and ''Antichrist Superstar''.<br />
<br />
Reznor and Manson apparently had a fight over control and musical differences, but resolved it prior to the [[Starfuckers, Inc. (song)|Starfuckers, Inc.]] video.<br />
<br />
==Interview about Nothing==<br />
<br />
:'''Question:''' Have you considered re-releasing any of your older albums with remastered tracks, b-sides, and other goodies? Antichrist Superstar turns ten years old next year. Is there any possibility of fans getting to hear an improved mix of this milestone album in the future?<br />
<br />
:'''Manson:''' ''I’d like to say yes, but there’s a legal matter pending that I can’t say too much about. It’s very hard to believe this, but '''representatives from Nothing Records have indicated that they are not able to find, or have lost the master recordings to my first three records'''. It’s not something that you would ever let happen in musical history. I would imagine something like that could only be intentional. If not intentional, it would have to be done only through complete disregard. Now that Nothing Records doesn’t exist, I think there’s only one of two people responsible for that. Out of those two people, there’s only one that really has an opinion of me that is voiced very often.''<br />
<br />
:''I’m often painted as the bad guy in a relationship – in most relationships. I will not deny that I am an asshole at times. I will not deny that I’m probably completely insane, and most people will agree with that. I don’t betray people that I care about. I don’t forsake people that are important to me and I would do anything for someone I love. I don’t know what kind of people do things like that. It’s erasing history. It’s erasing your life’s work. It’s killing a part of you. I don’t know how to react to it. I’d just like to wait and see what happens because it may be just a terrible mistake. I would hope so for those involved.''

==Access question July 21, 2004==<br />
[[Image:7 21 04questions2.gif]]<br />
<br />
This is a jab at Manson, who did a cover of Depeche Mode's "Personal Jesus" by mainly adding guitar distortion. "Personal Jesus" has been covered by numerous other artists including [[Johnny Cash]].<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
* Past members include [[Chris Vrenna]] and [[Jeordie White]] (as Twiggy Ramirez), who also play(ed) for NIN.<br />
* They contributed tracks to the [[Lost Highway Soundtrack]] along with NIN.<br />
[[Category:Related to NIN]]<br />
* During live performances around 1994, Trent could often be seen wearing a Marilyn Manson T-Shirt parodying The Salvation Army with the text, The Satanic Army.</div>

<br />
Down on your knees,<br />
You'll be left behind.<br />
This is the beginning.<br />
Watch what you think,<br />
They can read your mind.<br />
This is the beginning.<br />
I got my moxie, and in my eyes<br />
This is the beginning.<br />
Well, my reflection I don't recognize<br />
This is the beginning.<br />
We think we've climbed so high<br />
Up all the backs we've come down.<br />
We face no consequence.<br />
This is the beginning of the end.<br />
<br />
You wait your turn,<br />
you'll be last in line.<br />
This is the beginning.<br />
Get out the way,<br />
Cause I'm getting mine.<br />
This is the beginning<br />
There are some ones,<br />
That can help themselves.<br />
This is the beginning.<br />
May be too late, <br />
As far as I can tell.<br />
This is the beginning.<br />
We think we've come so far,<br />
On all our lies been taken.<br />
They say no consequence.<br />
This is the beginning of the end.<br />

"'''Beside You In Time'''" is the twelfth track on the 2005 release ''[[With Teeth (halo)|With Teeth]]''. It starts fairly quiet and retains its tempo and volume until about two-thirds of the way through the song, when it decelerates to a stop. It then comes back in, at its original tempo, louder than it was, building to a loud, fast finale that dies down and fades into the final track, "[[Right Where It Belongs]]".<br />

==Live==<br />
On the Fall 2005 and Winter 2006 legs of the [[Live: With Teeth]] tour, a curtain is dropped down in front of the stage as lights pulsate both on the screen and behind the stage. The band can be seen silhouetted against the back lights. As the song builds to its climax, [[Trent Reznor]] can be seen lifting his microphone stand, swinging it at the curtain at the song's climax as it shows a shattering glass effect and lifts, revealing the stage once again.<br />
<br />
==Lyrics==<br />
I am all alone this time around<br />
Sometimes on the side I hear a sound<br />
Places parallel I know it’s you<br />
Feel the little pieces bleeding through<br />
This goes on<br />
And on<br />
And on<br />
<br />
Now that I’ve decided not to stay<br />
I can feel me start to fade away<br />
Everything is back where it belongs<br />
I will be beside you before long<br />
This goes on<br />
And on<br />
And on<br />
<br />
We will never die<br />
Beside you in time<br />

==About==<br />
'''''Closer''''' is the fifth track on the 1994 release ''[[The Downward Spiral]].'' It begins with an electronic beat that is reminiscent of a heartbeat for eight bars. A keyboard pattern and sixteenth-note beat join in along with the vocals. Layers are continuously added before dropping out at the end, leaving a simple chromatic piano melody to end the song.<br />
<br />
"Closer" is perhaps the most well-known song from Nine Inch Nails, maybe more so for its video. The subject matter is clearly about sex, but it's not just sex. Instead it's a feeling of worthlessness and trying to quell that feeling through sex. The song was at the number 2 position on AOL's "69 Sexiest Songs of All Time," mostly due to the frankness of the chorus of "I want to fuck you like an animal/I want to feel you from the inside."<br />

==Music Video==<br />
in April 1994, a video for "Closer" was filmed. It was directed by [[Mark Romanek]], who also directed "[[The Perfect Drug]]" in 1997 and [[Johnny Cash]]'s cover of "[[Hurt]]" in 2003. The concept to the video is that it's an old stag reel recently uncovered. The aesthetic, atmosphere, and images in the video were inspired by the works of Man Ray, Francis Bacon, and, most notably, Joel-Peter Witkin. It was filmed using three-color film and hand-cranked cameras, to make it look much older. Additionally, there were more modern devices included in the video, such as a television.<br />
<br />
Romanek has said that Reznor was pretty much tortured throughout the shoot, yet he never once complained. Reznor seemed to know that what they were making would be phenomenal and would push the proverbial envelope of the music video format.<br />
<br />
Initially, there was a plan to film two versions of the video: an uncensored director's cut, and an edited version for MTV. This idea would save money on editing because of the costs of editing the film that was used. Reznor objected to shooting a censored version, stating that he didn't care whether or not MTV would show the video. MTV would show the video, but not before edits were made. The network censors objected to imagery they felt was blasphemous (a crucified monkey and a crucifix on a nude woman's mask), too risqué (Reznor gagged in front of a wall covered with sado-masochistic paraphernalia and writing from a chain while blindfolded), or too overtly sexual in nature (the nude woman and a diagram of a vulva). Ultimately, the video was edited for MTV, with offending images either blurred or blacked out, zoomed in to avoid objectionable content, or replaced by a screen reading SCENE MISSING. Some innuendo did make it past the censors, such as the shape of the microphone in some scenes, and what the hanging beef carcass appeared to resemble in addition to wings. Despite the heavy editing on MTV, "Closer" would go on to become one of the network's most popular videos in 1994 and 1995. The uncensored director's cut can be seen on the ''Closure'' video.<br />
<br />
Since then, "Closer" had been included on many Greatest-Video lists. In 2006, it was voted the greatest video on VH1 Classics' "20 Greatest Music Videos of All Time."<br />
<br />
==Live==<br />
"Closer" had been regularly performed live since 1994. For the [[Live: With Teeth]] tour, the instrumental breakdown of "[[The Only Time]]" was incorporated into "Closer's" breakdown.<br />
<br />
==Lyrics==<br />
You let me violate you, you let me desecrate you<br />
You let me penetrate you, you let me complicate you<br />
Help me I broke apart my insides, help me I’ve got no soul to sell<br />
Help me the only thing that works for me, help me get away from myself<br />
<br />
I want to fuck you like an animal<br />
I want to feel you from the inside<br />
I want to fuck you like an animal<br />
My whole existence is flawed<br />
You get me closer to God<br />
<br />
You can have my isolation, you can have the hate that it brings<br />
You can have my absence of faith, you can have my everything<br />
Help me tear down my reason, help me it’s your sex I can smell<br />
Help me you make me perfect, help me become somebody else<br />
<br />
I want to fuck you like an animal<br />
I want to feel you from the inside<br />
I want to fuck you like an animal<br />
My whole existence is flawed<br />
You get me closer to God<br />
<br />
Through every forest, above the trees<br />
Within my stomach, scraped off my knees<br />
I drink the honey inside your hive<br />
You are the reason I stay alive<br />

<br />
==About==<br />
<br />
'''''Down In It''''' was the first single for the 1989 album ''[[Pretty Hate Machine]]'' and the third track on the disc. It has been stated by [[Trent Reznor]] that this song is the first he ever wrote and is a rare treat to hear live. Following the "Down In It" single release, a music video was made.<br />
<br />
===Inspiration===<br />
In a 1994 radio broadcast biography of Reznor, it was said that "Down In It" was inspired by a relationship that had then recently ended for him with a woman named Krissy.<br />
<br />
Reznor has openly admitted that this song "was a total rip-off of "Dig It" by [[Skinny Puppy]].<br />
<br />
===Song Credits===<br />
*Production: Trent Reznor, [[Adrian Sherwood]], [[Keith LeBlanc]]<br />
*Engineering: Trent Reznor, Adrian Sherwood, Keith LeBlanc, [[Kennan Keating]]<br />
*Mix: Adrian Sherwood<br />

<br />
==Versions==<br />
===Down In It===<br />
Appears on ''[[Purest Feeling]]'' as the last track, differing from its official counterparts as that it has an extended intro with strange screams and odd static. It also includes about 1 minute and 8 seconds of distorted clippings of the song at the end as a finish to the album. Musically it's extremely close to the "(Demo)" version from the ''Head Like a Hole'' US single.<br />
<br />
===Down In It (Demo)===<br />
Appears on ''Head Like a Hole'' (US) as the last track, it's extremely similar to the ''Purest Feeling'' version, except that it lacks the long intro and all the extra layering of it's ''Purest Feeling'' counterpart as well as the distorted outro. Most likely it's the definitive "original version" of Reznor's very first song as Nine Inch Nails.<br />
<br />
====(Demo II)====<br />
Appears on the ''Purest Feeling II'' bootleg. It's simply the "(Skin)" version from ''Pretty Hate Machine'' with an unadulterated version of the "Terrible Lie" intro tacked onto the end which fades out.<br />
<br />
====(Demo III)====<br />
Appears on the ''Purest Feeling II'' bootleg. Almost exactly the same as the ''Purest Feeling'' version, simply lacking the extra layering and sound effects as well as the distorted outtro, though it does retain the extended drumbeat intro and is probably the version the ''Purest Feeling'' version was based upon<br />
<br />
====(Demo IV)====<br />
Appears on the ''Purest Feeling II'' bootleg. It's an odd version with Reznor whispering a good portion of his vocals an odd beat set compared to the others. It also includes faux-Oriental sounding synths which are noticeably absent in any of the other versions of the song<br />
<br />
===Down In It (Skin)===<br />
The mix from the ''Down In It'' single and later chosen to be the mix that appeared on ''Pretty Hate Machine.''<br />
<br />
===Down In It (Shred)===<br />
A mix that appears on both the ''Down In It'' and ''Head Like a Hole'' singles. It's basically retains the original song with an extended intro and a long instrumental area that makes up the entire latter half of the song, considered the "extended single version" of the song by some.<br />
<br />
===Down In It (Singe)===<br />
A mix that appears on both the ''Down In It'' and ''Head Like a Hole'' singles. It's a mostly instrumental "dub" mix of the song with minimal vocals and strange warping and mixing of the beats with heavy bass emphasis. It should be noted that this mix is actually 18 seconds longer on the ''Head Like A Hole'' (US) single than it was on the ''Down In It'' single. The reason for this is unknown, though it's probably due to the time constraints imposed on Vinyl singles compared to a full sized LP Maxi Single.<br />
<br />
==Live==<br />
===Live, from [[Closure]]===<br />
This is a live version found on the ''Closure'' home video. It was filmed on the [[Self-Destruct Tour]] between 1994 and 1997.<br />
<br />
===General===<br />
As of [[Fragility 2.0]], Reznor had stated that he didn't like the song as much as he used to, but during the later legs of the [[Live: With Teeth]] tour, it seemed as if he's changed his mind about the song, playing it more as the tour progressed. The song usually features a lot of destruction from Reznor towards the end.<br />
<br />
==Music Video==<br />
"Down In It" was the first Nine Inch Nails video. It was directed by [[Eric Zimmerman]] and [[Benjamin Stokes]], who also directed "[[Head Like A Hole (song)|Head Like A Hole]]." The video depicts Reznor running through downtown Cleveland and climbing to the roof of a building, where he falls to his death. Bandmates [[Richard Patrick]] and [[Chris Vrenna]] discover the body days later.<br />
<br />
This was the first video to be met with controversy. To film the shots of lifeless Reznor, he was covered with cornstarch to create the illusion of decay and cameras were tied to heavy-duty balloons that were tied down. During the filming of these scenes, one of the balloons broke free and took the camera with it, drifting some 200 miles before being found by a farmer. The camera was turned over to local police who, upon seeing the raw video footage, assumed it was a snuff film and the FBI was called in to investigate. The incident was even reported on "Hard Copy" and recalled in an interview for SPIN magazine. Because MTV and its US affiliates were uncomfortable with the video's subject matter, all scenes that depict Reznor's body lying on the ground behind the building were deleted.<br />
<br />
==Lyrics==<br />
Kinda like a cloud I was up way up in the sky and I was feeling some feelings you wouldn’t believe<br />
Sometimes I can’t believe them myself and I decided I was never coming down<br />
Just then a tiny little dot caught my eye it was just about too small to see<br />
But I watched it way too long and that dot was pulling me down<br />
<br />
I was up above it<br />
Now I’m down in it<br />
<br />
Well shut up so what what does it matter now<br />
I was swimming in the haze now I crawl on the ground<br />
And everything I never liked about you is kind of seeping into me<br />
Try to laugh about it now but isn’t it funny how everything works out<br />
(“I guess the joke’s on me,” she said)<br />
<br />
I was up above it<br />
Now I’m down in it<br />
<br />
I used to be so big and strong<br />
I used to know my right from wrong<br />
I used to never be afraid<br />
I used to be somebody<br />
I used to have something inside<br />
Now just this hole that’s open wide<br />
I used to want it all<br />
I used to be somebody<br />
<br />
I’ll cross my heart and hope to die but the needle’s already in my eye<br />
And all the world’s weight is on my back and I don’t even know why<br />
And what I used to think was me is just a fading memory<br />
I looked him right in the eye and said “goodbye”<br />
<br />
I was up above it<br />
Now I’m down in it<br />

'''''Something I Can Never Have''''' is the fifth track on the 1989 release ''[[Pretty Hate Machine]].'' It's a song about lost love and missed chances, though the true story about the song isn't wildly (or at all) known. It is the first song in which [[Trent Reznor]] plays a piano and is the first song in which he uses the word "fuck" ("fading fucking reminder").<br />

I still recall the taste of your tears<br />
Echoing you voice just like the ringing in my ears<br />
My favorite dreams of you still wash ashore<br />
Scraping through my head ‘till I don’t want to sleep anymore<br />
<br />
Come on tell me<br />
Make this all go away<br />
You make this all go away<br />
I’m down to just one thing and I’m stating to scare myself<br />
Make this all go away<br />
You make this all go away<br />
I just want something<br />
I just want something I can never have<br />
<br />
You always were the one to show me how<br />
Back then I couldn’t do the things that I can do now<br />
This thing is slowly taking me apart<br />
Grey would be the color if I had a heart<br />
<br />
I just want something I can never have<br />
<br />
In this place it seems like such a shame<br />
Though it all looks different now, I know it’s still the same<br />
Everywhere I look you’re all I see<br />
Just a fading fucking reminder of who I used to be<br />
<br />
Come on tell me<br />
Make this all go away<br />
You make this all go away<br />
I’m down to just one thing and I’m starting to scare myself<br />
Make this all go away<br />
You make this all go away<br />
I just want something<br />
I just want something I can never have<br />
I just want something I can never have<br />
<br />
Think I know what you meant<br />
That night on my bed<br />
Still picking at this scab<br />
I wish you were dead<br />
Your sweat and Perry Ellis<br />
Just stains on my sheets<br />

==About==<br />
"'''You Know What You Are?'''" is the second track from 2005's ''[[With Teeth (halo)|With Teeth]]''. It is a very aggressive and upbeat song, featuring a gang-shouting chorus and heavy guitar tracks. A remix of this song by [[Clint Mansell]] appeared on the ''Doom'' soundtrack, and played during of end credits of that movie. The title strongly resembles a track on the "[[Head Like A Hole (halo)|Head Like A Hole]]" single, entitled "[[You Know Who You Are]]."<br />

==Live==<br />
YKWYA has become a staple of Nine Inch Nails' live performances. The song, when performed live, sounds very similar to the album version. The only big differences are more intense guitar sounds and improvisational soloing by [[Aaron North]] during the bridge. <br />
<br />
==Lyrics==<br />
I tried to sneak myself through I tried to get to the other side<br />
I tried to patch up the cracks and the holes that I have to hide<br />
For a little bit of time even made it work okay<br />
Just long enough to really make it hurt<br />
When they figured me out and it all just rotted away<br />
<br />
Don’t you fucking know what you are?<br />
Go on get back to where you belong<br />
<br />
You better take a good look because I’m full of shit<br />
With every bit of my heart I have tried to believe in it<br />
You can dress it all up you can try to pretend<br />
But you can’t change anything<br />
You can’t change anything in the end<br />
<br />
Don't you fucking know what you are?<br />
Go on get back to where you belong<br />
<br />
Remember where you came from remember what you are<br />

==Live==<br />
"The Perfect Drug" has never been played live.<br />
<br />
==Music Video==<br />
[[Mark Romanek]], who also directed "[[Closer]]," directed "The Perfect Drug" in 1997. It was one of the most expensive videos at the time as the costs of building a refrigerated set, renting period costumes, and securing use of Gustav Klimt's ''The Kiss'' painting were all factors in the almost $1 million cost.<br />
<br />
The concept of the video is widely interpreted as [[Trent Reznor]] portraying a man mourning the death of a child and detaching himself from reality through absinthe. [[Charlie Clouser]], [[Danny Lohner]], and [[Chris Vrenna]] appear in the video, most notably playing string instruments at the beginning of the video. The aesthetics were heavily influenced by the illustrations of 20th-century artist Edward Gorey (1925–2000), the most obvious reference coming from the boy sitting on the cushion in front of the painting.<br />
<br />
The entire video was filmed with a blue tint with the exception of the drum breakdown, which uses flashing green light instead, representing Reznor losing himself in the absinthe. The refrigerated set was used for only part of the video, but the scenes using it really add to the emotion that the video is trying to convey. Reznor becomes a figure who certainly gains our sympathy.<br />
<br />
==Lyrics==<br />
I got my head, but my head is unraveling<br />
Can't keep control, can't keep track of where it's traveling<br />
I got my heart but my heart is no good<br />
And you're the only one that's understood<br />
I come along but I don't know where you're taking me<br />
I shouldn't go but you're reaching, dragging, shaking me<br />
Turn off the sun, pull the stars from the sky<br />
The more I give to you, the more I die<br />
<br />
And I want you<br />
You are the perfect drug<br />
The perfect drug<br />
The perfect drug<br />
<br />
You make me hard when I'm all soft inside<br />
I see the truth when I'm all stupid-eyed<br />
The arrow goes straight through my heart<br />
Without you everything just falls apart<br />
My blood wants to say hello to you<br />
My feelings want to get inside of you<br />
My soul is so afraid to realize<br />
How very little there is left of me<br />
<br />
And I want you<br />
You are the perfect drug<br />
The perfect drug<br />
The perfect drug<br />
<br />
Take me, if you want<br />
Without you<br />
Without you everything falls apart<br />
Without you it's not as much fun to pick up the pieces<br />

==About==<br />
Terrible Lie is the second track on the 1989 release ''[[Pretty Hate Machine]]'' and begins directly at the end of "[[Head Like A Hole (song)|Head Like A Hole]]" (the end of the latter providing a segue into the beginning of the former). <br />
<br />
===Meaning===<br />
The song is about having a belief in God while wondering about all the suffering (mostly personal/internal suffering) that one goes through in life, about wanting to believe and wanting to be hopeful but being constantly proved wrong by events in one's life. It's "everyman" subject matter and distinct melody make it one of [[Nine Inch Nails]]' better known songs and a staple of the live concerts.<br />

==Versions==<br />
===Terrible Lie===<br />
The second track from the album [[Pretty Hate Machine]], it is perhaps the most industrial selection on the record. It's intro beat bleeds in from the outro of [[Head Like A Hole (song)|Head Like A Hole]] and pops up occasionally throughout the song. The song is almost entirely synthetic and is extremely layered when compared to most of the other songs on the album.<br />
<br />
===Terrible Lie (Sympathetic Mix)===<br />
Present on the [[Head Like A Hole (halo)|Head Like A Hole]] single, this version is essentially the same as the album version with a few slight differences such as an unadulterated intro, a bit less layering and different arrangements, as well as a different outro and ending. Due to it's similarity to the album version, however, it's often considered more of a "single mix" for the song, which is used as a B-Side to [[Head Like A Hole]].<br />
<br />
===Terrible Lie (Empathetic Mix)===<br />
Present on the [[Head Like A Hole (halo)|Head Like A Hole]] single, this version is notably more remixed than the other version, lacking the normal intro and is much more upbeat as well with different arrangements of the main parts of the song, though the flow of the song remains intact. The background noises are much clearer as well and the song is noticeably extended in this version. Some of the lyrics (such as the distorted "Hey God!") are much clearer in this version as well. It also has a different ending as well.<br />
<br />
==Live==<br />
===Live, from ''[[Closure]]''===<br />
''I have not seen this performance, if anyone has and would like to describe it, I would be very appriciative.'' --[[User:GrayscaleRain|GrayscaleRain]] 22:42, 25 February 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
===Live, from ''[[And All That Could Have Been (halo)|And All That Could Have Been]]''===<br />
The first song on both the CD and DVD/VHS versions of And All That Could Have Been, the song takes place with just the multi colored set lighting on and doesn't have any special motif to it. During certain shots, one can see the sunset through the opening at the top of the stadium. Trent can be seen wearing cornstarch makeup and mascara during this song, though most of it doesn't last through [[March of the Pigs (song)|March of the Pigs]] (track 4). The song starts out with the recorded [[The New Flesh]]/[[Pinion]] intro typical to the [[Fragility 2.0]] shows, though this is entirely cut off along with the actual intro to the song on the CD version. The song ends with Trent screaming "You fucking promised me!" before seguing directly into [[Sin (song)|Sin]].<br />

<br />
===General===<br />
Terrible Lie is often the opening song of Nine Inch Nails shows following the intro tape. The ending of the song is extended when performed live and is often concluded with [[Trent Reznor|Trent]] screaming "you promised me". During the With_Teeth tours, [[Aaron North]] plays a short solo during the last few moments of the song. This is a short, three note repeating solo.<br />

Hey God, why are you doing this to me?<br />

Hey God, I really don’t know what you mean<br />

Hey God, can this world really be as sad as it seems<br />

Don’t take it away from me<br />

You made me throw it all away<br />
My morals left to decay<br />
How many you betray<br />
You’ve taken everything<br />

<br />
My head is filled with disease<br />
My skin is begging you please<br />
I’m on my hands and knees<br />
I want so much to believe<br />
I need someone to hold on to<br />
I need someone to hold on to<br />
I need someone to hold on to<br />
I need someone to hold on to<br />
I give you everything<br />
My sweet everything<br />

Hey God, I really don’t know who I am<br />

==About==<br />
'''''Sin''''' is the seventh track on the 1989 release ''[[Pretty Hate Machine]].'' Obviously, this song is about sex, visceral desires, lust and guilt. Remixes were featured on the ''[[Sin (halo)|Sin]]'' single along with a B-side (a cover of Queen's "[[Get Down, Make Love]]"). The song is often amped up live to a more danceable version of the song.<br />

<br />
===Sin (Short)===<br />
This remix incorporates some of the elements of the "Long" and "Dub" remixes, but it has a more drawn-out outro. This version is used in the music video.<br />

<br />
==Music Video==<br />
A video was released in 1990, using the "(Short)" remix of the song. It was directed by [[Brett Turnbull]]. The video features featured two girls dancing with each other at the beginning before cutting to the main focus of the video. A woman, nude except for what looks like straps to spelunking gear and a halogen lamp, walking a shirtless, wrist-bound [[Trent Reznor]] with a bag over his head through what looks like an industrial warehouse complex. He is then strapped into a large rotary harness where she spins him throughout the remainder of the video. These scenes are intercut with two young gay lovers who eventually fight and make up, a man and woman wearing ritualistic dressings and dancing, as well as visuals of a pierced penis and clitoris, all reflecting the song's dark, sexual aspects.<br />
<br />
The video was banned from MTV and most major outlets. A partial version of the video can be found on ''[[Closure]]''. There were reports that the complete video was shown at dance clubs in the early 1990s and can now be found on the [[NINternet]].<br />
<br />
==Lyrics==<br />
You give me the reason<br />
You give me control<br />
I gave you my Purity<br />
My Purity you stole<br />
Did you think I wouldn’t recognize this compromise<br />
Am I just to stupid to realize<br />
Stale incense old sweat and lies lies lies<br />
<br />
It comes down to this<br />
Your kiss<br />
Your fist<br />
And your strain<br />
It gets under my skin<br />
Within<br />
Take in<br />
The extent of my sin<br />
<br />
You give me the anger<br />
You give me the nerve<br />
Carry out my sentence<br />
I get what I deserve<br />
I’m just an effigy to be defaced<br />
To be disgraced<br />
Your need for me has been replaced<br />
And if I can’t have everything well then just give me a taste<br />
<br />
It comes down to this<br />
Your kiss<br />
Your fist<br />
And your strain<br />
It gets under my skin<br />
Within<br />
Take in<br />
The extent of my sin<br />

==About==<br />
Sanctified is the fourth track on the 1989 release ''[[Pretty Hate Machine]].'' It's best known for it's very tribal rhythms and distinctive bassline, though the original version of the song was apparently much brighter. A darker atmosphere was given to it for the ''Pretty Hate Machine'' version. The song appears to be about sex with a woman who the protagonist ([[Trent Reznor]]) is crazy about but is deathly afraid of. This could also be a metaphor for substance abuse.<br />

"Sanctified" has been a rarely played song since the ''Pretty Hate Machine'' tours, though when it is played, an extended intro is usually played during which Reznor addresses the audience.<br />
<br />
==Lyrics==<br />
<br />
It's still getting worse after everything I've tried<br />
What if I found a way to wash it all aside<br />
What if she touches with those fingertips<br />
As the words spill out like fire from her lips<br />
<br />
If she says come inside I'll come inside for her<br />
If she says give it all I'll give everything to her<br />
I am justified<br />
I am purified<br />
I am sanctified<br />
Inside you<br />
<br />
Heaven's just a rumor she'll dispel<br />
As she walks me through the nicest parts of Hell<br />
I still dream of lips I never should have kissed<br />
Well she knows exactly what i can't resist<br />
<br />
If she says come inside I'll come inside for her<br />
If she says give it all I'll give everything to her<br />
I am justified<br />
I am purified<br />
I am sanctified<br />
Inside you<br />
<br />
I'm just caught up in another of her spells<br />
She's turning me into someone else<br />
Every day I hope and pray that this will end<br />
But when I can I do it all again<br />
<br />
If she says come inside I'll come inside for her<br />
If she says give it all I'll give everything to her<br />
I am justified<br />
I am purified<br />
I am sanctified<br />
Inside you<br />
<br />
As surely as the blade's course is run<br />
Maybe my kingdom's finally come<br />

==Music Video==<br />
[[Jon Reiss]] directed the award-winning "Happiness In Slavery" video, which was released in 1992. Shot entirely in black-and-white, the video's stark contrasts and stunning visual effects leave a memorable imprint to the viewer. <br />
<br />
'''SPOILERS BEGIN'''<br><br />
A man (played by performance artist [[Bob Flanagan]], 1952–1996) enters a room. He's dressed in a suit and tie and surveys the room before placing a flower in a small vase on a shelf and lighting a candle next to it. He then undresses, carefully folding each piece and placing it on a table under the shelf. Now completely nude, he walks over to a small wash basin, above which is a mirror. He dips a washcloth into the water and cleans himself, then pauses and looks in the mirror. He then walks over to a strange device in the middle of the room and lies down on it.<br />
<br />
Suddenly the device springs to life and the man is in a reclining position. Shackles come down over his wrists and ankles as needles start poking into his hands. He looks on with anticipation and reacts with both pain and pleasure. A clamp and pincer begins to pull at the mans genitalia. More pincers begin pulling at his skin and ripping it out, which seems to be bringing the man an increasing amount of pleasure. Drills emerge and drill into his flesh at various points, with the blood dripping to the floor. The floor seems to be made out of dirt and there is a strange little garden underneath the device that seems to be fertilized by blood.<br />
<br />
Finally, grinders emerge and grind at the man's skin. There is a final flurry of pain and ecstasy before he is finally dead. The machine then engulfs the man's body, grinding it into a fertilizer for the garden. The machinery has washed itself and awaits the next victim.<br />
<br />
At the end of the video, another man (Reznor), dressed in similar attire, enters the room, and begins the same ritual as the previous man.<br><br />
'''SPOILERS END'''<br />
<br />
The video was universally banned due to its extreme violence and full-frontal nudity. There is a rumor that the only part of the video that was not real was the final sequence in which the man is engulfed by the machine. In reality, the poking and pulling were pretty much the only "real" aspects to the video. Reiss is fascinated with hydraulics, and it clearly shows with this video. The blood and gore were created by mashing bananas and mixing them with chocolate. This would look more realistic when photographed in black-and-white.<br />
<br />
==Lyrics==<br />
Slave screams he thinks he knows what he wants<br />
Slave screams thinks he has something to say<br />
Slave screams he hears but doesn’t want to listen<br />
Slave screams he’s being beat into submission<br />
<br />
Don’t open your eyes you won’t like what you see<br />
The devils of truth steal the souls of the free<br />
Don’t open your eyes, take it from me<br />
I have found<br />
You can find<br />
Happiness in slavery<br />
<br />
Slave screams he spends his life learning conformity<br />
Slave screams he claims he has his own identity<br />
Slave screams he’s going to cause the system to fall<br />
Slave screams but he’s glad to be chained to that wall<br />
<br />
Don’t open your eyes you won’t like what you see<br />
The blind have been blessed with security<br />
Don’t open your eyes, take it from me<br />
I have found<br />
You can find<br />
Happiness in slavery<br />
<br />
I don’t know what I am I don’t know where I’ve been<br />
Human junk just words and so much skin<br />
Stick my hands through the cage of this endless routine<br />
Just some flesh caught in this big broken machine<br />

==About==<br />
'''''Head Like A Hole''''' is the first track on the 1989 release ''[[Pretty Hate Machine]].'' It was the first commercial success [[Trent Reznor]] had and received wide radio rotation at the time. Though Reznor doesn't dislike the song, he was quite surpised it became as big as it did, especially due to its relatively easy writing process compared to some of the lesser recognized tracks on ''Pretty Hate Machine'' ("[[That's What I Get]]" and "[[Kinda I Want To]]" most notably).<br />

===Head Like A Hole===<br />
The version that appears as the first track on [[Pretty Hate Machine]], it's perhaps one of the most well known [[Nine Inch Nails]] songs. It's pounding synth bassline, tribal rhythms and chants, layered guitar and catchy double chorus are all signature aspects of the song. The stereo wipe at the end fades into the beginning of [[Terrible Lie]].<br />
<br />
===Head Like A Hole (Clay)===<br />
The second track on the [[Head Like A Hole (halo)|Head Like A Hole]] single, this is the version that was used in the video for Head Like A Hole. The only major differences are a different intro (one that features the second half of the chorus and some rhythmic chanting) and an unadulterated and extended version of the outro stereo wipe.<br />
<br />
===Head Like A Hole (Slate)===<br />
The first track on the [[Head Like A Hole (halo)|Head Like A Hole]] single, this version contains more treble than its cousins and a somewhat dancier beat than most, along with higher pitched synths playing the bassline as a lead instead. It's intro is the same as the (Clay) remix. It also lacks the stereo wipe outro and instead simply loops as it fades out.<br />
<br />
===Head Like A Hole (Copper)===<br />
Present on the [[Head Like A Hole (halo)|Head Like A Hole]] single, the (Copper) remix seems to be a cut and paste of the various remixes above, containing bits and pieces, loops and interruptions of the other songs. It contains the dance beat of (Slate) but has the layered guitar of the original version as well as a slightly modified instrumental intro. It's outro is an odd drum loop that contains a bizarre squeak accompanying a ride cymbal.<br />
<br />
===Head Like A Hole (Opal)===<br />
Exclusive to the UK version of the [[Head Like A Hole (halo)|Head Like A Hole]] single, the mix is notable for it's "realistic" drums and strange instrumentation, much of which isn't present on any of the other remixes. It is perhaps the most unique remix, having a few lyrical differences from the original version of the song, as well as using an inverted version of the bassline rather than the bassline itself and a totally different drumbeat. The only element that found its way over from the other mixes is the wood percussion intro from the original version of the song, which the drum beat follows exactly. The song ends by fading away while Trent whispers "You know... you know who you are." repeatedly, a line of this song only found on this version of the song.<br />
<br />
====Head Like A Hole (Demo)====<br />
Present on the [[Purest Feeling II]] bootleg, this demo is a fake. It's actually the (Opal) remix from the UK release of [[Head Like A Hole (halo)|Head Like A Hole]].<br />
<br />
===Head Like A Hole (Soil)===<br />
The longest remix of the group, it starts off with a distorted version of the (Clay/Slate) remix intro. It has the original drumbeat, but lacks the synth bassline which actually comes in during the middle of the song to lead as a bridge with some odd sounding synths. There are also some odd steel drum sounding synths which stereo wipe back and forth at various points in the song.<br />
<br />
===You Know Who You Are=== <br />
The fifth track on the [[Head Like A Hole (halo)|Head Like A Hole]], this song is an instrumental composed of the background synths and various tribal rhythms and chants that compose the song. It's more or less a wordless "dub" version of the song and is notable for being the very first true [[Nine Inch Nails]] instrumental. The outro of the song is the actual intro to the original version of Head Like A Hole (This song is not to be confused with [[You Know What You Are?]], the second track off of the album ''[[With Teeth (halo)|With Teeth]]'')<br />

===Live, from ''[[And All That Could Have Been (halo)|And All That Could Have Been]]''===<br />
The 13th song on the CD (16th on the DVD/VHS versions), it trails directly after [[Closer]] and is the end of the regular set. The lights are bright and the LCD displays behind them show mostly interference snow in time with the music. At the end of the song, the band completely destroys all the instruments and the music melts into dissonance, hanging for a bit while the strobes increase in intensity (almost to the point where it's impossible to see) before the lights shut off completely. This minute delay or so gives the band time to prepare for the encore.<br />

===General===<br />
It has appeared in almost every concert that [[Nine Inch Nails]] has performed since its appearance and has become a staple part of the live set.<br />
<br />
During the [[Lollapalooza 1991]] Tour, various guitarists from other bands (such as Ice-T of Body Count) would come out onstage to perform with the band. [http://youtube.com/watch?v=g-eM7H4NHKo YouTube video]<br />
<br />
"Head Like A Hole" is usually the last song of the show (With Teeth era) or last song before the encore (Self Destruct and Fragility era). At the end, the band usually destroy their instruments.<br />
<br />
==Music video==<br />
The video for "Head Like A Hole" was directed by [[Eric Zimmerman]], who also co-directed "[[Down In It (song)|Down In It]]." The Clay remix is used in place of the album version.<br />
<br />
The video contains three different sequences, used at different intervals of the song. During the verses, footage of tribal dancers is undercut with rotating cybernetic heads, creating a strobe effect. For the main chorus and instrumental interludes, the band is seen playing in a large cage with wires and magnetic tape at their feet. The sub-chorus features black-and-white footage of Reznor lowering his head into a tub filled with water and bringing it back up. At the end of the video, Reznor's feet have become entangled in the tape and wires as he is lifted off the ground, hung upside-down and writhes in mid-air.<br />
<br />
When the video was shown on ''Beavis and Butt-Head'' in 1993, the Copper mix was used in place of the Clay mix.<br />

==Lyrics==<br />
God Money I’ll do anything for you<br />
God Money just tell me what you want me to<br />
God Money nail me up against the wall<br />
God Money don’t want everything he wants it all<br />
No you can’t take it<br />
No no you can’t take it<br />
(You can’t take that away from me)<br />
<br />
Head like a hole<br />
Black as your soul<br />
I’d rather die than give you control<br />
Head like a hole<br />
Black as your soul<br />
I’d rather die than give you control<br />
<br />
Bow down before the one you serve<br />
You’re going to get what you deserve<br />
<br />
God Money’s not looking for the cure<br />
God Money’s not concerned about the sick among the pure<br />
God Money let’s go dancing on the backs of the bruised<br />
God Money’s not one to choose<br />
No you can’t take it<br />
No no you can’t take it<br />
No you can’t take that away from me<br />
<br />
Head like a hole<br />
Black as your soul<br />
I’d rather die than give you control<br />
Head like a hole<br />
Black as your soul<br />
I’d rather die than give you control<br />
<br />
Bow down before the one you serve<br />
You’re going to get what you deserve<br />
You know who you are</div>
