>>127119609 (OP)Trent's laziest hour and peak of his selling out. This truly is NIN in name only.
Before there was a clear distiction between Trent/Atticuss soundtrack and NIN.
>"Do you think you guys would be interested in scoring Tron?’ He didn’t even finish the sentence, I was like, ‘Fuck yes, we’d want to do that’,” Reznor tells Empire. It was the next part that caught him off guard. “He said, ‘How would you feel about if it was credited as Nine Inch Nails, versus Trent and Atticus?’ We weren’t expecting to hear that question.”But for the mouse, Trent sold his baby, well, not like NIN really matters to him all that much anymore.
I have not seen something so cynical in a while especially from a band like NIN. I'm kind of pissed off more people aren't called it out, though NIN is currently in a position where people seem to accept whatever he does, even when he puts out a song that is so blatantly lazy and bland compared to every other single he has ever made.
The chorus is lifted straight from Love Is Not Enough, it's like he's not even trying to hide how little "NIN" means to him now.
The song doesn't develop, it doesn't go anywhere, he has written far better songs in The Slip which he wrote in a few months and recorded in a few weeks. Discipline's hook is far stronger, far better composed song all together, this is lazy, there aren't any stand-out melodies, no cool rhythms, no cool soundscapes NIN is known for, it's so bland.
