Anyone here over 35 buy the new NIN CD?

[Gothic Sponge]

I just want to make sure I'm not the only one pushing close to 40 that digs it. ;)

[Cooley Hurd]

1. Me too...

:thumbsup: (i'm 39)

[d_b]

2. I enjoy it.

But I'm 23.

I really dig the last track.

[dhinojosa]

3. I am a ministry fan, and I'll be damned if....

that Reznor piece of shit has any music in my house! I am also 33.

[Trajan]

4. Im 48 ... and Iove NIN ....

Always have .... but I played in a rock band for 16 years ... I appreciate what Reznor composes as an artist ...

and ? .. he fuckin ROCKS like no other ...

[trof]

5. no

I have no idea what you're talking about.
Hey, I'm a geezer.
We aren't supposed to know.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

6. This 37 year old did.

You're not alone Gothic Sponge. As a matter of fact, you're in good company if I do say so myself. :P

[redqueen]

7. I've heard bad things...

but I'm still thinking of getting it. Not sure yet... :shrug:

[SarahB]

8. I didn't, but...

My ex-husband is 42 and he did. I didn't buy it, but then again, the point is moot because I'm still too young. :D

9. What's Nin?

[Gothic Sponge]

10. Nine Inch Nails

[bertha katzenengel]

11. Ah. Thank you for the edumacation.

Now: since there's an advisory on the label, does that mean that "nine inch nails" refers to some self-aggrandized male body part? :)

[Dukkha]

12. well I AM 35 and got it

back in 1993 I had a live audition for NIN as a guitarist. Oh how I wish I got that gig. :-(

[eyepaddle]

19. No kidding,

I would've seen you on tour, then!

As it was I have to admit Robin Finck was pretty outstanding. Obviously he just plays exactly what Trent tells him to, but he really added some muscle live.

And it seems like Danny Lahner almost gets to be "in the Band."

Although I should ask--who's with NIN this time around?

[Dukkha]

22. all I know is Robin Finck left for...

Guns And Roses! talk about a downgrade. That failed miseralbly too. Still no album release from Axl. Before that he played for Cirque du Soleil. That would've been a cool gig.

I got to hang with them after an S.F. show back in 1994. They were all really cool. The drummer had fresh stitches in his head from Trent's stage antics.

[eyepaddle]

26. Robin was back for the tour for

The Fragile--however he isn't credited on the album, so I think he missed out because of ol' Axl. That's a tough break.

I think I saw the last show on the Downward Spiral tour (it was in LaCrosse WI--so it was near the end at any rate) and you could tell they knew they didn't have to work in the morning! There was a thirty minute delay after they broke the drum kit, Robin was all liquored up so Trent pulled his pants down and pushed him into the crowd. All in all, it looked like they had a great time! They still nailed all of their parts though.

I'm sorry you didn't get the gig :hug:

What are you up to these days?

[Dukkha]

28. yeah that tour was like a hockey match

I still have a piece of the Yamaha DX7 synth Trent smashed up on stage. They had to stop the show for 20 minutes when he threw his guitar at the drummer and busted his head open.

This is what I'm up to now. Quite the opposite of industrial metal. :)

I get airplay on XM but that's about it.

[eyepaddle]

29. Wow, that is different!

At least from the sound of the site intro--do you get played on Visions? Or which other channel? I'm big fan of Musiclab and Fine Tunings.

The only thing I've done is contribute one song to this project:
http://kuwona.users4.50megs.com/isindex.html

The guy hasn't updated in almost five years and I doubt they made more than 150 copies, but technically, it was commercially available..




I went from British Heavy Metal (Priest, Maiden) to Industrial (NIN) to some odd fingerstyle accoustic stuff.

I'll listen for your stuff on XM

[eyepaddle]

13. What's it like

Broken and The Downward Spiral are two of my all time favorites...how does this compare to those? I do like The Fragile too.

For the record I'm 35

And also for the record if NIN comes anywhere NEAR you on tour GO!

[Gothic Sponge]

15. IMO it sounds more like Pretty Hate Machine

[eyepaddle]

16. Which was a solid album, no doubt,

but the fury of Broken, whew......man that's good.

Doesn't look like he's planning on swingin through MN on tour though :(

[Dukkha]

14. Oh, and Trent Reznor will be 40 himself in seven days

So don't worry. We still rule! :headbang:

[AwakeAtLast]

17. I am 35, too.

And, no, you are not the only one. Sorry you missed my appreciation thread: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=3142480

:hi:

[ucmike]

18. i don't buy much music but i like what i hear on xm.

[gizmo1979]

20. I'm 43 and I will be buying it.

[supernova]

24. Me too

I like what I've heard on the radio so far. :thumbsup:

[alpaca]

21. Got it Tuesday

to add to my collection, and yes 35.

[jandrok]

23. No, but I am looking to buy the new System of a Down disk

And I'm 41.

[johnnie]

25. I didn't buy it

I remember Trent when he was local, before he became dark and "artsy".

[Maestro]

27. I bought it the first day it was out

And I am 37.
