#NIN #TrentReznor #reactions - Hudba
Trent Reznor is an absolute genius when it comes to composing. His work in so many soundtracks and things ppl have no idea he does is amazing! Glad NIИ got inducted to the music hall of fame. Also stay safe
You sound like as big a fan as me mate. I’m a musician thanks to Pretty Hate Machine. Terrible Lie and Sin was the first double A side vinyl I heard in 1989. Since then every new album has been a “I know where I was when” day. And I’ve got tickets for the Eden Project in June in the U.K. It’s a 700 mile drive so I’m hiring a Merc and doing the surf weekend in North Devon afterwards. Being a hard drug addict I’ve not been on a holiday for 30 fucking years. Now I’m clean the hope of life returned.
Are you a musician?
Peace brother.

"The ability to pull emotions from you with so little" - yes! I love seeing Trent getting recognition as a composer. I just listened to the Gone Girl score, and damn, such an interesting timbre pallet they pulled from with some truly beautiful moments. You might like it as a composer yourself. Great video Geebz!
This album, damn. What an album. For context, this album was a concept album based in a close, but alternate reality wherein the surveillance state had become dystopian, there was resistance fighting against them. At the same time, there were sightings of hands reaching down from the sky.
The album release was an alternate reality game in its own right as Schism46 has said in the comments. But linked to this dripping of information about the "reality" were a series of scavenger hunts with USB drives being left containing further information and copies of some of the singles.
Additionally, Trent was playing with weird tech at some of the concerts. I saw them in Manchester (UK) prior to the album being released and he was using something to allow him to direct sound to small areas of the crowd passing on messages and ultimately one concert goer received a message which directed them to one of the USB drives.
The album, and everything to do with it was just this huge immersive experience!
I remember when I bought the album there was a phone number on the packaging encouraging you to call, when I called there was a recording that was creepy as hell. Man I listened to this album to no end
I remember when I first took the CD out of the CD player (remember those 😅) it had changed colour to reveal some message or code. That was pretty trippy at the time!
Also finding out that one of the songs revealed the "hand" from the cover when shown through a spectrogram was pretty cool - whoever figured that out first must've been having their mind blown!
I loved the way he released this album, as you can see my profile pic is the art is resistance flag. I followed it from the very beginning, checking echoingthesound forums everyday and still have the dog tags that a group made with my username on the list and I'm unfortunately deceased. Was so cool to see all the detail that went into it, between the street art, hidden USB drives, etc.
There was a facebook group made for the supposed start of "Year Zero" when the album was new... 12 years ago.... the day the riot police showed up for the peaceful protesters in Canada just so happened to happen on that day that someone had arbitrarily set in the future... as a Canadian I was fkin SHOOK
@@PD2KC I still have that flag on my car too.... I was around for the ARG as well nothing can top that experience!
Great album. Love this song. Please do more NIN the lovers. Perfect drug. Somewhat damaged. Reptile. Eraser. Background world. I'm looking forward to joining you finally. I would for you. The line begins to blur.
Was not expecting a reaction to a Year Zero song, definitely not Zero Sum. On that note great choice.
Same!! Such a great album and this song has such a beautiful message
I seriously spit out my coffee on my phone.
Well it is Year Zero! (2022) 😬
Anyone play along with year zero arg when it came out ? Most immersive experience of media in my life
The most underrated genius in all of history...Thank God. Most people
in the UK have never heard of TR but they know all about Little Mix & Harry Styles. FAKE NEWS STRIKES AGAIN!!
P. S: All because I believe that
Fake News exists in our MSM doesn't mean I'm a right wing Trump loving moron. I'm a liberal Lefty. Who thinks Trump should be jailed for life or
executed for Treason.
Wow, didn't expect a Year Zero track! It's my favourite NIN album but I feel like it is so difficult to pick one track from it, but this was a great song to react to. And as usual, I will humbly request that you react to some Sigur Rós again
First time I put Year Zero in my CD player, I thought I’d broken the disc. Turned out the face of the disc is coated in a heat sensitive paint; changing from black to white.
The whole marketing concept behind the album was incredible; from the viral marketing, to the USBs left at venues & the awesome four song concert / piece of performance art which ended with ‘riot police’ raiding the show.
Year Zero is my #1 album of all time. Thanks for the review!!
Nine Inch Nails is a rabbit hole well worth exploring. I recommend that you react to "The Becoming" (the album version from "The Downward Spiral"). It'd be even better if you then did a back to back reaction with the version from "Still".
The Becoming was always my favorite. I remember rewinding the tape over and over.
Still version is amazing too, indeed !
I CANT BELIEVE you mentioned Peter Gabriel!!! Holy smokes, I've been saying this for years. Trent seems to share some sort of kindred sensibilities with Peter Gabriel. I have never known how to explain it exactly. NIN and Trent have been the soundtrack of my life since 1994. It feels to me like Trent looks at the world through Jungian archtypical eyes -- I don't know how to explain it so I won't keep trying. I love your channel, glad I found it.
I hope you've heard Trent's remix of Growing Up by Peter Gabriel, because that is truly the best of both worlds. One of my all time favorites.
Francis and the lights is heavily inspired by Peter gabriel. Some of his tracks feel almost nostalgic. Talent you don't hear very often anymore.
I used to drive around at night listening to Year Zero, and though it paints a bleak outlook of many different aspects, from global warming to aliens, I actually found a positive energy and hopefulness in this album, like.... WAKE UP HUMAN RACE.... It's Not To Late! ❤️. This album is a underrated Masterpiece!
So beautifully dark.
This song has always tugged at my soul.
NIce shirt! It's good to see you!
I had a 20 lb bunny named Chong. More of a dog, really. :)
I love that you did this song from this album. Everything on this album is processed to all get out but I liked it. One of my favorite albums from them.
Love that you reacted to this. One of my favourite NIN songs of all time. For fifteen years I've been making that Peter Gabriel comparison, to Intruder in particular.
Ps. Please get back to Mew some day.
Appreciate you, man.
Has he done any dives into Peter Gabriel?
@@lordlazenby Not yet....
@@carolynm.7530 Too bad, so many greats to choose from with his stuff, would love him to dive into something like San Jacinto or Signal to Noise, that receive and transmit part gets me every time
@@lordlazenby I love the orchestration in Signal to Noise, but I love the entirety of San Jacinto!
@@carolynm.7530 Hell yeah, Peter Gabriel is the shit. Check out the version of I Have the Touch that is on his greatest hits album Shaking the Tree, one of my absolute favorites, read the lyrics as well
I've listened to this song since the day the album dropped. It never fails to evoke an emotional response from me.
Opeth, Steven Wilson, porcupine tree, Tool, Nin keep them coming dude 😎🔥
More opeth. More soen more riverside
Tasty sir
I’ve been waiting for anyone to recap some of year zero. Much appreciated
Great album, great song, and keep it coming my mans. Love this series and the vibe.
You gotta review nin song the becoming
this was great! I appreciate you!
Really nice to see you react to one of the not so popular NIN songs. I love this one and the whole YEAR ZERO is way underrated and should get more attention.
Great t-shirt, great song, great reaction! Hope you are safe and well!
Great vid as usual Geebz. I only just saw ur vid on Northlane as well and I’m so stoked you found that genre of music. Australian Metalcore has some great production throughout a lot of their best bands. I’d recommend checking out a favourite of mine the band Thornhill. Their vocalist and the ambience on some of their tracks is absolutely unreal. Would love to see more of that type of music covered by ya
Great video/breakdown. Trent is a genius . Would suggest doing videos to “somewhat damaged, reptile, the becoming, and eraser”
Ascending out of the simulation and back into the mind of God (with a capitol G). This was supposed to be a concept album. I think of so much of Trent's stuff is like soundtracks to movies that don't exist....David Lynch movies
Hey Geebz! I have been watching your videos for quite awhile now. I love that you became such a Maynard fan and watching you go through his different bands. That being said NIN has also been one of my favorite bands. Trent just has this special touch, whether it is angry, calm, or more of like a radio friendly pop style. I would absolutely love it if you spent more time reacting to Trent Reznor's music like you did with Maynard. I truly believe that if you did you would find a whole new fan base to join in what we have all been watching for some time now. You are awesome and I want to say thank you for sharing your thoughts on everything you listen to. I am still here and will continue to be here as long as you are! Thanks! Awesome video by the way as always! Try where is everybody, the wretched, or I have seen several requests for reptile. Literally any song of his would be fine with me.
niiiiiiiiice pick. looking forward to this!
I rediscover NIN thanks Geebz
A surprise to be sure but a welcome one. Great song, great breakdown. Would love for some more NIN
Fantastic, happy Twos-Day! I never did get into Year Zero much, but I'll have to give it another listen. Hope the storm blows over without much trouble!
Such a unique choice off this album. awesome work
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love this song, love this album. Love you, Geebz!!!!!!! Xoxo!
Oh man, great pick! Would love for you to do "Right Where It Belongs" from With Teeth, which has a similar vibe.
I only listened to NIN for a large portion of my life. I listened to this so much while I was homeless on Active Duty in the Honor Guard in DC that I got Zero Sum tattooed on me. This is a powerful song, I even remixed a version myself when the remix.nin scene was poppin.. around 2006-7.
Thanks for this. I think the next song I'm really looking forward to you dissecting The Doomed by A Perfect Circle. It's time.
Thank you Geebz
Right Where it Belongs pls…great NIN track with a beautiful sound and incredible lyrics
Amen to that suggestion. The live version with the big screen is just amazing, I get chills every time
Reznor and NIN have been my favorite artist for the past 30 years. I really hope you will dig deeper.
Yep. He's the best by far!
What timing for you to bring this song and album back out. I'm a huge NIN fan with them being #1 in my books for the last 20+ years. I've always enjoyed this album but I feel like it's talking in a completely different and pertinent way these days in light of current world affairs. Made me break it back out for a good solid listen after a while. I love what he did with this album and what the goal was. The Fragile I personally feel is his best album as a whole work where he really developed a full experience. Year Zero tells such a story and is such a commentary on us as humans told in music that is just fantastic.
Great reaction!!! Go flyers
Flyers fan here. Great mug!
Beautiful song
Was hoping for a favourite band on my birthday but this will do! Aloha! 😁🤙🏼
Damnation and Year Zero back to back, two of my all time favorite albums!
I absolutely love this song.
Heya Geebz, im new to the channel, found you after looking through some old mr bungle gigs and the youtube algorithm doing you justice. I watched a lot more of your videos and always respecting what you have to say you seem like a lovely person. If it hasn't been suggested already you should give "black midi" a listen to they are a really good experimental band not quite on the same US grunge and mental scene you have been listening to recently. if you do listen to them listen to: Black Midi - John L
Thanks, John :)
Great pick
I always thought that lyric was "we knew from he start"
I do love NIИ, but i feel there could be better songs to sample. Personally i believe The Downward Spiral deserves a deep dive, from beginning to end in one sitting.
That’s my favourite NIN album.
Couldn't agree more.
Facts!!
Just checkout the channel from ixi music: czcams.com/users/iximusic
She has done a very thorough analysis of the Downward Spiral. Highly recommended: czcams.com/play/PLn_Xar3I0ZoCJASsr-NzD13qN3aCXY-4t.html
WOW. Not a song I would have thought to have seen.
🙏🏼
Thanks again. Dinosaur Jr "out there" sometime?
Hey Geebz, I assume someone probably commented on your Patrion but I assume you are talking abotu the Peter Gabriel song "We Do What Were Told." If you haven't yet I recommend you listen to Peter's album Up which I believe he admitted to being inspired by Reznor. In particular "My Head Sounds Like That" and "Signal to Noise." Reznor even did a remix of one of the songs from the album "Growing Up."
NIN ❤
I’d love to hear your thoughts on “Higher” by Sleep Token.
Not the NIN song to casually pop up on playlists it seems, but maaan its lyrics are heartbreaking. I personally didn't get the ascending vibes from the ending, quite otherwise, like life waning, the last grasps at it, as the piano sounds quieter and quieter.
Regardless, great reaction.
Yes, Ella, agreed. I always felt that quiet piano at the end was the last breath before death. ❤️ very beautiful.
You should react to Gorguts or some Defeated Sanity for some avant-gard ish extreme metal stuff even jazzy on the Defeated Sanity side.
As intense and unrelenting NIN gets, Trent always knows how to reel it back and really emphasize on less is more… Brilliant, brilliant composer indeed
I love Peter Gabriel. You should do some of his music on here. I'm sure you've heard most of it but we should all do a listen along.
Sir, I love NIN so much, Trent has been a well known musical genius for years now. And I appreciate the review. But.. I would truly love to see a “Avatar” reaction. “Yes.. like the movie, they named themselves before the movie was made”. They can be super melodic, or super heavy.. so I’m going to recommend Their song “Going Hunting”. Which is all melodic. One of the most talented bands I know to exist. I hope you see this. Thank you. Love your channel.
Bear in mind that in this we hear harmonies and riffs from earlier songs in the album, bringing things full circle.
NIN deserves a deep dive. You'll fall in love. No one has touched them on reaction channels enough. You did great!! Start with The Downward Spiral album.
ixi music has a great Nine Inch Nails-based reaction channel that covers a few other artists as well!
More NIN🙏
Are you thinking of Peter Gabriel - We Do What We're Told? It doesn't have the lyrics you mentioned, but the song has a very similar feel. I listened to that album a lot as a kid, when my parents would play the tape in the car.
I like your
Reviews, you should check out Skinny Puppy - Killing game or Assimilate
Year Zero is in my top 3 in NIN discography
Dive deeper please. Slow burn on Trent Reznor. He is a genius. I just was lucky enough to see them again in Philly. You should check out the live version of his music too. This album is great and I have been following them since early '94 The Downward Spiral Tour.
Review The Becoming
Yes and yes to more and more Trent.
Whoa. whoa? no knock on anyone who likes this track but it's not in my top 100 NIN songs. it might even be in my bottom 10 nin songs. I don't like how it sounds, how it's mixed, the theme or anything really about it.
Thank you !!
I was reading all comments and thought I was the only one to think that.
I respect all the people enjoying this song but to me it’s sounds just like an interlude song of an album. There’s so much more happening in loads of songs on this or on other albums.
The Fragile must be so interesting to listen to from a de-composer perspective.
But hey, it takes all tastes.
Love your channel Geebz
Go Flyers
Top notch assessment of religion and government a slice of American GOP/Trumps pie....🎉
Gods of rapture by meshuggah. Early stuff. Progressive perfect for the channel.
Year Zero deserves more love, it is one of their best works.
piano kinda reminds me of their song "where do you get all the love in the world". Love this but the "drums" takes me out of it. I'd love to heard an orchestral version of this. I'd suggest their song "The becoming" or their instrumental song "a warm place". I was still here even though you didn't ask.
"All The Love In The World" its called
Try the "Remixed by Splitter" version of Zero Sum, it's on CZcams. I love it, it's much more calm.
The beat is my favorite part of the song lol.
A warm place is one of my all time favourites and, aside from its obvious beauty, I can't work out why. It goes (or take me) elsewhere everytime.
@@erin.murphy To me it's like the long drive home from a rough night of partying as the sun is rising.
Getting back into Nine Inch Nails? AWWWWRIGHT!
Like Zero Sum & Good Solider. Great political motivated songs. We actually need more politically motivated songs like in the 60s & 70s. It’s 2024 & things are changing quickly.
Love the Flyers mug. Too bad they suck so bad this year.
We Do What We're Told is the Peter Gabriel song
NIN is always a good choice!Trent is a master!!!
great track, but it really needs the context of the rest of the album (even musically), which is a concept album.
I really like the Year Zero album. I'm partial to concept albums.
You should review something by Kyuss if you haven't, my pick would be Supa Scoopa and the Mighty Scoop
Aloha :) Actually I have done 2 from them - here is one - czcams.com/video/etNOkATsMrs/video.html
@@KeyOfGeebz Thanks so much, I really dig the direction of music choice at the moment on your channel, I know you get tons of recommendations, cheers, great content
Damn, Zero-sum was not the obvious choice from this album but it was probably the best one. One of my favourite albums
Day 33 of asking when the next MUSE breakdown is going to be -- can't wait to hear your next de-composition of their music
Please react to the band SKYND
Trent has always been a genius.
Hey, if you’re still up for listening to Gojira, you should definitely check out Low Lands. The drummer and singer are brothers, and their mother passed away shortly before the album’s release, and Low Lands is almost like a message to her spirit. It’s seriously beautiful.
Like others have said, Year Zero is a concept album and it reflects world politics around the time it was released (George W. Bush presidency, Afghanistan, Iraq) even though the idea is a parallel dystopian reality. Wonderful choice, but as with any NIN album, I gotta say--the album is a solid ride from start to finish, and in the context of the entire album this is one hell of a closer.
Hey mate. Seeming as I noticed you enjoy Karnivool, check out another Aussie prog band "Cog". They are an amazing 3 piece that are not well known outside of Australia, but should be. They were really big here in the mid 2000's. Lots of funky time signatures and really unique vocalist. The released some new singles over the last couple of years, check out my favourite track from their newer stuff called "The Middle" - link here czcams.com/video/XP6NoSfSCfA/video.html
I/We’ve been spoiled by so much crazy metal music with weird time signatures and cutting edge sounds, that coming back to NIN (even as a huge fan) seems so tame and basic in comparison. But goddamn does Trent know how to compose some beautiful melodies and create the best moods.
Brings back memories of listening to NIN on school the bus with my Walkman in the 90’s. I had a bloody good taste in music even back as a pimple face teen. Kids missing out with their boring tiktok crap 🤮
The marketing campaign on tour before they dropped this album hiding the zip drives in bathrooms the fake websites it was a pure masterpiece only concept album better than this to me is downward spiral by him and it’s a close call
yikes who recommended this one. Might as well have done The Day the World Went Away. Anything from Fragile, Reznor recycled the piano parts throughout the album & ones after (in a good way, almost concept album way). Even then, the piano in that album comes from a few alterations using Something I Can Never Have as a skeleton. But I'd not pick from this album to get reactions from due to the tepid reaction I had for it.
The Year Zero album still scares the crap out of me to this day.
SOOOO much to get into with this one.
Weird choice….. how about the song “and all that could have been”?
Such a lost work of art this album was at the time … a near term victim of the transition of technology and social political elements … Many of us owned this album but never shared how much we loved it, at least around here, there were no live shows to champion that love!! So funny that the generational social cycle is already coming back around from when this was released and the themes are very much in tune with current global events and likely events to come!
yes it is a place to stop as the song shifts but a terrible place to stop cause you lose the release of the build up that brings all those goosebumps lol
This stuff just doesn't engage me like Trent's earlier work. Started losing me around With Teeth album. Just sayin... Its not bad or anything, just 'meh'.
Edit: the last double album thing he released - Ghosts was nice, Ghosts V
it would be great to do VG soundtracks again.
