Nine Inch Nail: New LP; Reznor at the Helm, Grohl on Drums..

Thank god. Its been yonks since the last one. They've done 5 studio albums (The Downward Spiral, Pretty Hate Machine, Broken, Things Falling Apart and The Fragile), A live album (All that could have been) and a remix album (Further down the spiral). So 7, 8 if you include the original soundtrack to Quake (mid-90s PC shoot-em up). They're doing the soundtrack to Doom 3 as well, so 9.

I realise I'm a geek. *cough*

do you count live/soundtrack stuff as albums? i didn't think anyone did.. otherwise with all their live stuff Pearl Jam would have 10 zillion albums and everyone knows theyve only made 9 zillion :D

Shit. I just remembered that "Broken" was a single.

So (Not counting Remixes and Live albums....)
They have 3 albums. Pretty Hate Machine, Downward Spiral and The Fragile.

I listed the Soundtrack and live ones seperately, as I wasn't sure what the actual question was asking for....

Ah well. I look forward to the album anyway, it'll be interesting hearing them with live drums for a change.

I agree that it's three albums. No arguments please.

He scored Natural Born Killers as well didn't he? Still not a proper NIN album. There are 3.

On the website, he lists himself as up to Halo 18 including Bleed Through, but he appears to count eveything as a halo.

quite a big fan for a long time, collected a ton of stuff (which im selling some of if anyone is interested - all good condition - downward spiral american promo double vinyl, fragile 3 vinyl etc mail me if your interested in anything nin related - i might have it!

Halo List - i think this is right, from memory so forgive me

1 Down In It - US 5 track EP
2 Pretty Hate Machine
3 Head Like A Hole - 3 track single
4. Sin - 4 track ep(with a cover of Get Down Make Love by queen)
5. Broken - fab
6. Fixed - rubbish
7. March Of The Pigs (2 cd's over here - 7 track ep over in the US)
8. The Downward Spiral - best album. ever.
9. Closer (2 cds here, 8 track in the us i think)
10. Further down The Spiral
10v2 Further Down The Spiral (UK and with awesome remixes of heresey and ruiner. seriously good remixes
11. Perfect Drug EP - brilliant song, great remixes
12. Closure (double video)
13. The Day The World Went Away EP
14. Were In This Together - 3 fookin cds
15. The Fragile
16. Things Falling Apart
17. And All That Could Have Been

i think thats right.

on a side note, its interesting (if your a geek about record collecting) that most nin releases in the UK dont have a Halo number, just a catalog number. also. Into The Void was released as an EP in Austrailia only, no halo, and has Into the Void plus a few tracks from the Were In This Together.

anyway, i have some of this stuff for sale, in cd, tape, vinyl etc if your interested. :)

p.s. back on topic, grohl drumming with reznor was suprising to say the least, but it should be good. So long as he changes the damn title..


12.

i hear from most angles that his albums are pretty dross heavy. perhaps you could ask these fan types to assemble the greatest greatest and just live with that?

They definitely have twelve albums and I have proof. I'm holding them all in my hand at this very moment and I just phonedededed up Trento (what his BESTESTESTEST friends call him) and he was all like "Yeah yeah yeah, I totally got 12 albumseseses under the name Nine Inch Nails and they're all proper albums like, I don't count those non proper albums"

So in conclusion, C&A's just weren't selling enough to stay open in the UK

They'd BETTER set a date in Ireland

Or I'll Trent HIS Reznor!

It is amazing that his fan base is still so strong. I would never have expected there to be this many NIN fans on DIS.

With Teeth is the best thing to come to our ears since All That Could Have Been.............havn't had it off (the cd) since I was given it :o)...........Saw NIN in Manchester on my birthday and they were/he is awesome............I bow to Mr Reznor's mastery.
