So my Mom and my Brother's names are being blasted in to space on a microchip and will land on a comet...How bizarre is that?

Offensive W
NIN pulled the plug on their scheduled performance next week during the MTV Movie Awards due to the network's uneasiness with a back drop of George Bush during the song, "The Hand That Feeds". This song is "a warning against blind acceptance of authority, including that of a president leading his nation to war." Yet another reason not to watch that lame ass network.

"Nine Inch Nails will not be performing at the MTV Movie Awards as previously announced. We were set to perform "The Hand That Feeds" with an unmolested straightforward image of George W Bush as the backdrop. Apparently the image of our president is as offensive to MTV as it is to me."
-Trent Reznor 2/26/05

What is wrong with this country...

Well it was only a matter of time before Square-Enix caved and brought Final Fantaxy to Xbox. Looks pretty nice on the xbox 360! Here are a couple of other nice trailers for the 360 from E3.

Throwing cats from 4 story buildings does have a certain entertainment value doesn't it?

Team of Fighting Midgets loses to lion in a battle to the death (at least for 28 of them) before the fight was called a victory for the lion. This is damn messed up and yet funny at the same time.

With Teeth is #1. It was the best selling album last week, now if you haven't already go out and buy this cd, I bought the dualdisc which has the album on dvd 5.1 surround with videos and a discography and other stuff on one side and the regular cd on the other, very nice. Trent is broke now after all and needs your support, not to mention it is an amazing album.

Well they have finally confirmed the worst kept secret in video game history. The Xbox 360 as it is officially called will launch this year. Looks impressive, I like the wireless integration both internet connection and controllers, and I really like the Xbox Live integration and HD mandate, makes me wanna buy a new tv. But only time will tell, and we will have to see if it has the games to really sell the system (Perfect Dark Zero, Quake 4, Colin's favorite Ghost Recon 3, and Dark Sector are good starts).

Ok, yes I am a geek. But I always loved dinosaurs and space stuff when I was a kid. Here is a really cool show on the Discovery channel that starts on Saturday about what leading scientists believe is really out there. They even got Steven Hawking with his "Speak and Spell". It's called "Alien Planet".

Here is a hilarious review of "With Teeth". He has a very different take on the album than most.

And this is Trent's reasoning for no cd booklet. Interesting idea.

Here is where you can get the cd book and more. Must register.

Site Update. Well, I got bored so I updated some stuff. New graphics, new design and stle. Updated some pictures of Peyton. Tried to update my DVD listing, but apparently my acct is MIA. And I tried to update my game list but somehow everyone else in the world is crashing gamespot.com. Oh well, it is damn late and Peyton wakes up at 7 am every day. Sleepy time...Oh by the way go buy Nine Inch Nails: With Teeth. It is fantastic. You won't be dissapointed. It is even on iTunes.

Trent Reznor Is Nine Inch Nails....
Just slightly more than a day to go until the release of the much anticipated album With Teeth. Here are a couple of interesting snippets and articles about the new record.

Trent Reznor back from the wasteland
-Scott Kara of The New Zealand Herald

"My name is Trent Reznor and I am an alcoholic. If there's coke around - cocaine that is, the Colombian marching powder - keep it away from me. I shovel that for breakfast.

At least I used to. Now, I am clean and I can think again. Although I remain an intimidating person, I am also less prone to being a dickhead."

Here is a very accurate review by Virus.

"The rumors that were going on upfront - more rock, less industrial - are not really wrong, but not principally and overall right either."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Even fucking Fred Durst of Limp Bizkit digs the new album...Though admittedly I am not certain that this is a good thing.

"trent reznor is and will always be a force of genuine inspiration. he has never let me down. do yourself a favor and get this cd NOW!!!!!!"

"Do you see a point where you’ll release something as just Trent Reznor?" - Brian Stillman of Revolver

Trent Reznor: "I imagine so. This record feels like Nine Inch Nails to me, and at the same time – and you’ll have to take my word for it – it doesn’t feel like I’m trying to fit into something that fit me 10 years ago and, motherfucker, I’ve got to fit into it again. At the end of the day, if a record is successful, if your career is up or down or you’re signed or not, you’re left with yourself. And through the good times and the bad times, I feel proud that what I’ve done with Nine Inch Nails has always felt like the right thing to do. I wouldn’t want to rewrite The Downward Spiral or Pretty Hate Machine. It was honest for the guy who did them, a confused fucker who was terrified. I recognize that guy, but I don’t feel like him anymore."

It also took a humiliating spell in rehab to separate Trent the person from Trent the personality. - Victoria Durham of Rock Sound

"I did the full deal," he details,"I did a week in the psych ward, detox, it was full on. It wasn't glamorous this time. I can kind of laugh about it now. But the door that closes and doesn't open back up, and you realise there are no handles on it - it's hard to feel glamourous in that situation when you're vomiting on yourself. I was taught humility." He breaks into a smile, anticipating the inevitable question. "There was no master plan in taking this long between records. This was really about survival."

Beyond Hurt
By Robert Hilburn, LA Times

The low point was waking up one morning in London with a hospital tube in his mouth and not knowing where he was. He had overdosed on heroin in his hotel room and had been taken out through the laundry room by aides who were trying to protect his privacy.

That was after Reznor came out with his follow-up to "Spiral," 1999's aptly titled "The Fragile" — an unwavering portrait of psychological helplessness that felt both frightening and sad. Sales were disappointing, and even admirers in the music industry wondered if he'd ever make another album.

Coming to Grips
-Orkus Magazine, May 2005
"So I took a two-year time out to come to terms with myself again.”
During which he discovered, however, that almost nothing was left of the millions he had earned in the nineties with his records and tours. “My manager, who I worked with for almost 20 years, had gutted me like a Christmas goose, and to realize that hurt like hell,” hisses Reznor. “I always thought something like that couldn’t happen to me. But now I'm exactly the dumb rock star I had always laughed at — I let myself get thoroughly fucked over and even politely said thanks. Because of that I’m now in a lawsuit that is almost as messy as a divorce."
