→Mr. Self Destruct by Soft Cell
So I discovered the album ''This Last Night in Sodom'' by Soft Cell from 1984 recently and the first song is called ''Mr. Self Destruct''. I know Reznor likes them because NIN did a cover of their song ''Sex Dwarf'', so I'm just wondering if this song by Soft Cell is the inspiration for the title of the song on ''The Downward Spiral''.
What do you think?
:He's a very big fan of them, and due to the unusual nature of the title, I would say that he -almost- certainly used the title as inspiration, but he's never actually stated that. I guess we could put it in the song info as "possibly named after ..." or something like that. Anyone else have input?
