Trent Reznor

[25-WR]

Glossy voice with edgy ‚in your face‘ lyrics and humongous hooks, cemented by sticky NIN-esque drum & bass, portraying a fallen angel gone rogue.

[25-WR]

The slow turning sonic framework of experienced formulas firming each other up in mature cooperation. A compound-track that for once does not sound condescending.

I get the feeling that back then it would be weird not to break your instruments on stage so one just had to do it.

„RECORDED IN SECRET TO AVOID INTERFERENCE FROM THE RECORD LABEL, THE FOLLOW-UP TO PRETTY HATE MACHINE TAKES AN UNEXPECTED ABRUPT TURN INTO SHEER AGGRESSION.“

[25-WR]

It lacks a solid sound-slate design like the one “The Downward Spiral” has giving it a decentralized feeling somewhat affecting the old attention-span.

[25-WR]

A much less hermetic alternative when walking down the yellow big synth-road of the late eighties industrial-music industry in search for angry dancing.

[25-WR]

Conquering self-pity with heart, mind and complacent malice. A premonition revenge story by a brilliant tributist who brought hell to those who doubted him.

[25-WR]

The crowning achievement of the golden age of MTV music videos by unsung cinematic master Mark Romanek. Single greatest favor Joel Peter-Witken ever got.

[25-WR]

Beats, Bass & Drums in rocky finesse, without obligatory hit single – but definitely one of the better works of (clean) Trent‘s recent electro-sterile discography.

[25-WR]

Selbstauffressendes zeitloses Magnum Opus geschrieben im Drogenkonsum und Depressionenwahn. Diese einsaugende Reise beginnend bei oberflächlichen Ego-Makeln zum düster suizidalen Kern herbergt tiefst vergrabende (Emo)tionen.

[25-WR]

90´s “The Wall” thanks to a rare glitch in the mainstream that let him do this to us.

One hell of a cry for help.
