New Nine Inch Nails Album “Bad Witch” Out June 22nd
- Thread starter PROh1bited
- Start date
The only sense that I can make is the 5 days break between New York and Boston.
Hopefully a show is planned for Toronto during that break, but then again it's a weekday and there's no way we are getting a weekday show unless it's Thursday.
Another logical guess would be a 2 days show between Nashville and Washington D.C., where there is no tour for a week.
Going off some of the replies I might be in the minority liking The Slip over Hesitation Marks.
'Still' - the EP - is underrated, not TDS. The exclusive songs and the amazing rework of The Becoming are some of his best work. I loves it.
That's because Everything and Satellite (which I love, but is a blatant rip of of Hot Thing by Prince) were recorded initially for a 'best of' compilation owed to Interscope. That's why they seem tonally different, especially Everything.
I doubt a band like NIN will perform on a weekday, especially when they perform once or twice in a country as a whole. They make more on weekend as more folks go see shows on weekends. I could be wrong but historically it's always been weekends.
Yeah, I guess I've seen them on weekends more often than not. I'm glad I've seen them four times, because I may not see them anytime soon. Which isn't the end of the world, but it'd be nice.
That said, if you have to actually go to the venue to get tickets, I may not bother. I like the idea, but the venue is hours away from me so I doubt I'd make a separate trip just for that. I like them, but am cheap and poor.

Count me in too. From 2007-2011 Trent seemed to actually be aging very gracefully in an artistic sense, doing stuff like Ghosts, The Social Network, and The Slip while experimenting with what "Internet 2.0" had to offer both in a business sense and an artistic sense.
Hesitation Marks convinced me to check out of the Reznor Hotel. After years of espousing the values of being an independent artist, Reznor got back in with a label, kicked out Rob Sheridan and brought back the guy who did the artwork for what is arguably NIN's most famous album, and released music that was a massive regression from what he'd accomplished over the past few years. Then he married someone less than half his age who can't sing worth shit, and now he's unironically telling young people to "get off yer phones and interact with 'REAL' people!"
Why? I though it was funny and a good way to battle the issue with the resellers :)
And the Fragile is their best album with Just Like You Imagined being their best song.
NIN is coming out to Japan this summer as part of the Summer Sonic Tour. It's the only band I'm interested in seeing on that day, I've been DYING to see them in concert for years. Not sure if their set is worth the $100+ ticket price though... : /
I'm surprised to see so much love for The Fragile here. I think I liked Downward Spiral the most, not just because it's angry, angsty Trent, but I probably listened to it more than any other album back in high school. I liked Year Zero a lot as well. The Fragile is moody Trent painting emotional soundscapes, but I like when he's just bursting with something to say.

I struggle to understand how Trent went from telling Australians at a live performance to steal his album as Interscope were taking the piss with the pricing, to giving The Slip away and going DIY etc... to being an Apple/Beats executive and returning to a major label (for Hesitation Marks and HTDA, at least). I mean, I understand how priorities change when you have kids... but if you're already a multimillionaire, that angle doesn't really stick as your kids are already set for a higher quality of life than most.

Maybe Trent doesn't like the TV show Black Mirror? And the chorus goes
Black Mirror?
More like shit mirror!
Amirite?
That's my best guess.
I'm so jealous, NIN have The Jesus and Mary Chain as support in the US. Two of my favourite bands ever. They haven't even announced a tour here in Australia yet. I was hopeful they'd come here after Japan but they instead announced more US dates.....
Anyone who doesn't know The Jesus and Mary Chain will have their minds blown. One of the few artists that have been covered by the Pixies and the Butthole Surfers. One of the best alternative bands to ever come out of Scotland and indeed the UK as a whole. Bobby Gillespie of Primal Scream was a former drummer and is known to jump in for the odd song on live tours.

Same. Never gonna see them live. Closest I got was during The Fragile and he cancelled the show.
The Great Below.
Hyperbole from me, but it's a masterpiece.
I was hoping Trent could create this kind of song again...
You've gotta go to at least one show. It will change your life forever.
I love the Still EP.
I used to be a huge NIN fan, but now I look back on the albums and they just seem so childish. But Still EP is the one NIN album that I still enjoy.
@ Carnby - love the avatar! I don't often see fellow Pig fans around. Cant wait to hear Risen on June 8! Have you heard Truth is Sin yet?
It's a great time for industrial rock right now, new Pig in June, New NIN in June and a new Ohgr release is imminent as well!

I just went and looked up my first show. It was the 2nd leg of the Self Destruct tour in Denver on October 20, 1994. The 2nd show a year later where he toured with Bowie was the one that completely blew my mind and here we are.
I listened to Hesitation Marks and both EPs a couple times yesterday and they are aging like fine wine. Really love all three.
I see what you were getting at.
You're wrong, but that's OK.
The Becoming (Still) is an amazing piece of work that is truly underrated
He'll yeah.
I haven't listened to Truth is Sin. I'm waiting until its release before I listen to anything. I did preorder the deluxe vinyl.
The instrumental of this is so good. He posted it on Apple Music I think.
I was waiting for a post like this. This song is literally why I was gonna drive to see them on this tour.
Haha I'm on a vacation and will be in front of a PC in a week. I will create it ASAP when I get back!
Just messing with ya! But seriously...
I can do it from my phone but I rather use Photoshop to edit headers and key art.
Nothing on CD, yet. I hope we get a full trilogy set of the 3 EPs/album in one CD, I will gladly double dip.
That would be pretty boss if that happens. Yea I'd double drip for sure. I cant afford all the other bundles they got going for Bad Witch so I guess the $20 package is mine to own....I really liked the physical component for Add Violence.
PS: I prefer your previous avatar =P
I thought that was the majority, that The Slip and Ghosts I-IV are better than Hesitation Marks.
Haha me too, Canadian bro! I changed it for Pillars of Eternity II, trying to hint players on where to find ResetEra island. :D
Some British retailer had a cd preorder up, but I haven't seen anything official on it. Especially since they have it listed day and date.
I mean good god. I could absolutely destroy shit to this. NIN were once the most amazing band on the planet.
I love that there's so many NIN fans of various ages here. I've been listening to Trent since Pretty Hate Machine, seen him live about 10 times, and have hated everything after The Fragile, which is in my Top 5 albums of all time.
I'm hoping someday he puts out another album I can love.
