new NiN album out last week. a tour cannot be far behind. one has not lived until one has been pummeled within the confines of a nine inch nails mosh pit.

yes, crash! bang! likes nine inch nails, and that explains a lot.

I haven’t heard the new stuff. I think Trent peaked out with CD that had Closer on it.

"CD that had Closer" = "the downward spiral"

many people would agree, but i think "the fragile" is his best work to date

interesting trivia:

in "pretty hate machine", trent cites prince, as well as public enemy and a few othres, as major musical influences. "closer" was his version of a prince song. compare the lyrics and it makes sense: "i wanna fck you like an animal/i wanna feel you from the inside...you get me closer to god"...completely anomalous to nin lyrics, which are dripping with existential angst and sacrilege but would fit right in with the pre-jehovahs witness princes sacred/profane bent

That's a hard type of music to pull off live and have it sound good.

they did it very well.

I liked Autolux too, but they REALLY need a good front man to take it to the next level.

Something very odd and not quite right about Queens of the Stoneage.

I felt the same way about QOTSA, They pulled off a few songs, the rest was bleh... Autolux had a nice sound, I'd never heard them before, but I was still just waiting for them to get off the stage.

I think QOTSA should have opened instead of Autolux. Autolux should have talked to the audience. It is pretty sad when a band leaves the stage and you are wondering who they were. NIN on the other hand, is incredible!!!

Now the countdown begins until Disturbed! 2 shows, 2 amazing nights.

I was astounded that Disturbed is playing the smaller venues and that they are able to pull off the two night shows. I'm going to have to wait to see them when they make the second leg of the tour which will probably be headlining the big venues. I hate it when great concerts fall on work nights. I want to go see Matisyahu but the closest he's coming on a night off is 4 hours away.

When you go to these things, what do you do? Do you shake your head up and down? Raise one arm up with a fist or devil ears or peace sign on the end? Bob your head like you're driving over a rocky road while mouthing the chorus the second time it comes around? Maybe squint your eyes while tight lipped and looking around knowingly? Hide under a blanket coming up long enough to notice some college kid looking at you like you're his best friend, trying to get a piece of that action? Do you stand in front of the speakers thinking these are the best seats in the house while simultaneously thinking "damn, I'm going to pay for this later, ... and it's really uncomfortable."

Just wondering what you do. I never know what to do with my hands and head, personally.

the floor at nails concerts used to be just a massive mosh pit. it was a fight to just stay standing. the last one i went to,....meh... we all just stood around except for the random slam-dancer....kids today have no passion.....theyre too cool
