Holy shit Trent is just raging everywhere now. Stop this mad man

I'm cryin senpai, he's really pissed off

I'd be salty too desu

>>70347965
Can't blame him. The Fragile might be his most personal work and magnus opus. And you got this bald headed pretentious fuck with leddit humour mocking you in his review while you are at your worst state in your life.

Cunt indeed

Hope he goes back to shitposting as much as he did back around The Slip era.

You guys should also album descriptions of his on his own website. For example this is for Not The Actual Events

>UNAPOLOGETIC, UNFRIENDLY, DENSE, LYRICALLY COMPLEX, SO-FAR-BEHIND-THE-TIMES-IT’S-AHEAD-OF-ITS-TIME, HIPSTER-REPELLING UNCOMPROMISING MUSIC SMART PEOPLE CAN FUCK TO. IT MAY NOT BE FOR YOU.

no "magnus" is a person's name, it's magnum opus

The p4k article says its his magnum opus, so you might as well have been quoting the article or referencing popular consensus today.

>>70348298
Oh. Nope. Just a mobile fag who does not have an access to a computer. My writting is awful on the phone. Sorry

>>70347826
Trent is pretty based

Hes just mad because his career is dead and only middle age mallgoths listen to his edgy music

>>70348232
>lyrically complex

lmao

>>70348344
His newest EP sold really well without any marketing. He also does soundtracks for Hollywood. I don't think his career will die. His career will die when he will stop soundtracks, NIN. Or die himself

I mean for NIN, it is, kek. And this is coming from a hardcore fan.

>" I don't know why I want to do these things, other than my desire to escape from Small Town, U.S.A., to dismiss the boundaries, to explore. It isn't a bad place where I grew up, but there was nothing going on but the cornfields. My life experience came from watching movies, watching TV and reading books and looking at magazines. And when your fucking culture comes from watching TV every day, you're bombarded with images of things that seem cool, places that seem interesting, people who have jobs and careers and opportunities. None of that happened where I was. You're almost taught to realize it's not for you."

"I was thinking a lot about The Downward Spiral album era, and the person I was at that time. Downward Spiral felt like I had an unending bottomless pit of rage and self-loathing inside me and I had to somehow challenge something or I'd explode. I thought I could get through by putting everything into my music, standing in front of an audience and screaming emotions at them from my guts.But after a while it didn't sustain itself, and other things took over – drugs and alcohol. And I'm happy that I don't feel that way any more.

I've learned to recognize, a lot of it forced through the process of recovery, that I'm wired wrong in certain ways, the chemical balance of my brain is off in terms of depression a little bit. This record was written as the other side of that journey. The despair and loneliness and rage and isolation and the not-fitting-in aspect that still is in me, but I can express that in a way that feels more appropriate to who I am now. And often that rage is quieter."

Basically, Trent.

>Insecure, to this day as he admits in the most interview after EP.
>Diagnosed with clinical depression
>He didn't grow up with his parents. But with his gtandmother who raised him
>Rejection throughout youth
>First song he wrote "Down In It" was about suicide
>Got addicted into cocaine and alcohol.
>His grandmother died around time after The Downward Spiral. He saw her death. The Day The World Went Away and I Am Looking To Join You, Finally are dedicated to her.
>Moved near ocean during The Fragile with an intention to commit suicide by drowning. Instead write song La Mer

>About 10 years ago or so I locked myself away in a house on the ocean, and I tried to... well, I said I was trying to write some music. Some of which wound up on The Fragile. But what I was really doing was trying to kill myself. And the whole time I was away by myself, I managed to write one song, which is this song. So when I play it I feel pretty weird about it, because it takes me back to a pretty dark and awful time in my life. It’s weird to think how different things are now I’m still alive, I haven’t died yet. And I’m afraid to go back to that place because it feels kind of haunting to me, but I’m going to go back. I’m going to get married there.

My career was skyrocketing, but the scaffolding that was holding me up as a person was starting to collapse. I wasn't fully aware of how bad it was getting, but I knew, in my heart, that I was on an unsustainable, reckless, self-destructive path.

When I met David, he had been through that. And he was content. He was at peace with himself, with an incredible wife, clearly in love. There were a number of times where the two of us were alone, and he said some things that weren't scolding, but pieces of wisdom that stuck with me: "You know, there is a better way here, and it doesn't have to end in despair or in death, in the bottom."

A full year later, I hit bottom. Once I got clean, I felt a tremendous amount of shame, of my actions and missed opportunities and the damage that I've caused in the past. And I thought back to the time when we were together a lot, and I wonder what that could have been like if I was at 100 percent. I'm Afraid of Americans falls into that category of me at my worst — out of my mind and ashamed of who I was at that time. So when I see that, I have mixed feelings. Grateful to be involved, and flattered to be a part of it, but disgusted at myself, at who I was at that time, and wishing I had been 100 percent me. And it nagged me.

A few years later, Bowie came through L.A. I'd been sober for a fair amount of time. I wanted to thank him in the way that he helped me. And I reluctantly went backstage, feeling weird and ashamed, like, "Hey, I'm the guy that puked on the rug." And again, I was met with warmth, and grace, and love. And I started to say, "Hey listen, I've been clean for ..." I don't even think I finished the sentence; I got a big hug. And he said, "I knew. I knew you'd do that. I knew you'd come out of that." I have goosebumps right now just thinking about it. It was another very important moment in my life.

"Every city in America has at least one Gothic club. In New Orleans, it's the Blue Crystal. When a band like the Cure is in town, the Blue Crystal throws a party after the show. The club called Reznor, the closest thing they have to a local dignitary, to invite him to the Cure after-show party. Further conversation revealed that the only way the Cure would show is if Reznor is there, too. You can't hear it anywhere in Nine Inch Nails, but Reznor is a Cure fan from way back. He considers the Cure's The Head On The Door" one of the best records ever." His favorite description of himself: "Robert Smith with a head cold."

"I end up going to the club, and surprisingly, everyone from the Cure is there. And the bartender calls me over and says, 'Robert really wants to talk to you.'" Reznor smiles, makes a face that says: You mean I have to meet one of my teen idols in a goth club in Louisiana? Now? In front of all these people?

"It ends up," Reznor says, "me and him, hugging on the dance floor. He's like, 'I love you, dude,' and I'm like, 'I love you too, man.'" The Cure fans formed a loose circle around the pair while New Order's "Blue Monday" pumped out of the speakers. "It was the greatest scene," Reznor says.

"We were both fairly incoherent," he feels compelled to add."

“Many years ago, a young and naive Nine Inch Nails were asked what TV shows they’d be interested in appearing on. As a joke (and likely drunk), they thought of the most absurd choice they could come up with at the time.

They were then informed their bluff had been called and were actually booked on said show (thanks again Sioux Z). They hopped in their Honda Civic touring vehicle (hatchback) and travelled many miles to (I think) NJ for the big show.

They had a laugh making fun of the people, their fashion choices and hairstyles. Life was good. Years later, the internet is discovered… There’s a moral in there somewhere.

Come to think of it, Skrillex may indeed owe me some publishing on that hairdo…”

The really good thing about unstable/emotional artists is that every time they get mad at something, it usually results in a really good product from the incident, which only puts more fire into the grudge at the other side, in a endless battle of egos and angst

Oh wait, he's actually now the Managing Editor for Chicago's much revered MeTV, known for their syndication of only the finest 1970's television programs
