    The downward spiral is basically like a movie. each song tells the story of a two characters the protagonist and mr self destruct a sort of split personality of the protagonist. who continues to go further and further into debauchery, depravity, depression, mania and madness. A downward spiral if you will. And he slowly starts becoming less and less human striping away all of the attributes that make us, us. More robotic. Its easily one of the most nihilistic albums of all time. Imo of course. My favorite album of 1994.

    The album this song is from, The Downward Spiral, was recorded in the home of the late actress Sharon Tate, the actress killed by Charles Manson's cronies. The name "pig" was written on the walls after her death. Piggy and March of the Pigs are great songs from that album....

      Well, this is an implication. You never said it is inspired by what happened. So although that is all true, I don't think it inspired these songs. Maybe March of the Pigs, I don't know, but Piggy is a song about abandonment. And it is clearly about Richard Patrick, whose nickname was Piggy and who left the band shortly before this album was recorded (in the studio Le Pig. And now this... is a bad taste, cause this one, the name, is 100% connected to what happened in that house)

    I think you called it, "Pig" is a metaphor for that thing we can't let go of that holds us down and motivates us to keep up whatever bad habits we're keeping up because of it, which puts us in "that cage". It is part of the downward spiral album, which is mostly a narrative of someone losing their shit and still able to come back at the end. Yes, Piggy was Trent's nickname for Richard Patric and yes the album was recorded at "le pig", but Trent and Richard have gone on to say that thos things are mostly just coincidence. Also, with 5 kids and a wife, Trent is completely sober during this performance. 😅

    When I was a child, I sold all of my Super Nintendo games, console and controllers so I could buy an N64. One of the first games I bought was Wave Race 64. I listened to this album from start to finish as I played Wave Race 64. Multiple times. My favorite song is "I do not want this." It is nastolgic now, playing, listening, not worring about the world. Then Monday comes around. Life.

    Piggy is about Richard Patrick an early collaborator. They had a falling out and Richard went on to form the band Filter. It’s also part of a concept album so it’s also an aspect to a downward spiral into depression. Losing your friends.

      @@jirshb3302 According to the Filter biography on their official website, former live guitarist Richard Patrick reportedly received the nickname "Piggy" while in Nine Inch Nails. According to Patrick's Filter bandmate Brian Liesegang, Reznor was very upset when Patrick left the band and wrote the song "Piggy" about it shortly thereafter[1]. Patrick gave the story behind his nickname in a 2013 interview[2]:
      One evening the day before some studio time with Trent I took a girlfriend to a Skinny Puppy gig. I was watching the sound check and Ogre was on the mic shouting "WHITE PIGGY" over and over, I found it really funny. When I got back to the studio and we were setting up, I keep doing an impersonation of Ogre and after a few minutes Trent shouted to me "Hey Piggy, shut up and play some chords man!", and the name stuck after that.

    Kinda shocked they suggested this one out of their (his) entire discography... I'd recommend to react to "Terrible Lie" live at Woodstock 1994. One of the most infamous sets in all of rock. This song (and the long intro 'Pinion' they use) give such a strong dark and aggressive tone, but it still gets you going. This was the first song they played at they got on stage, and nobody knew what was gonna happen next.

    Trent does not use drugs Queen look at him on stage is completely physically fit and has been clean for some time. Trent has NEVER expressed what this song is about but when you listen to The Downward Spiral it's about someone's descent into madness and it's an entire experience. You listen to it all and when Trent sings it's about feel and you believe him.

  • @theCurteye

    the song is 30 years old

    Likely on drugs when written by the lead singer (and main person in the band, who usually writes and records almost everything himself). Not on drugs when performing, at least not him. The atmosphere (lighting, mood, sounds) is pretty typical of their shows and music, though this song is more bluesy and slower than most. The band is known for their uniqueness as far as atmosphere and sound landscapes. The lead, Trent Reznor, has won a couple of Oscars for his scores for The Social Network and Soul.

  • @DerpyBerb

    Pigs are a motif that Trent uses to refer to greedy people or selfish people. I’ve heard this song is about former guitarist Richard Patrick now front man for filter, they have performed together recently. So I don’t think their strife is as bad as Trent’s and Marilyn Manson’s.
