[[Image:Skinnypuppy2004.jpg|thumb|Skinny Puppy is in 2004]]'''Skinny Puppy''' was a notable [[Industrial]] industrial band from Vancouver, Canada. The band formed in the early 80's. The very first Nine Inch Nails shows were opening gigs for Skinny Puppy along select VIVIsect VI tour dates 1982 and rose as a pioneering force in 1988 industrial music, combining the ferocity of punk with the experimentation, noise, and featured material off theatrics of [[Pretty Hate Machine]] and [[Purest Feeling]]the budding electronic movement. [[Trent Reznor]] has claimed his "first song" The band split after the grueling recording of '[[Down In It]]' is a "total rip-off" of The Process'Dig It' by Skinny Puppy , but reformed in a radio interview2000. The band then announced that its 2023 tour would be its last, and disbanded following the tour.

Skinny Puppy's vocalist/front-man Nivek Ogre performed live on stage alongside Reznor in the band [[Pigface]], most notably sharing a duet of the song "[[Suck]]", which was recorded on video. In 2005, Ogre sang the song "Supernaut", often attributed to Reznor, with the band Ministry at a live show in New York City. Rumors exist that Ogre and Reznor met socially at some point in the years following, but it was unlikely to result in any collaboration. Reznor has also worked extensively with [[Dave “Rave” Ogilvie]], a one-time permanent fixture in Skinny Puppy as producer and band member. On August 10, 2007, Skinny Puppy was featured on [[nin.com]] in a photograph taken by Reznor at the Sziget Festival in Budapest, Hungary.
