Nine Inch Nails - The Hand That Feeds (Thot Vegetal Hand Remix) (2010)

Quote: "Dear Vegetal Noise Lovers, As promised, here's the remix that most of you have choosen: Nine Inch Nails - The Hand That Feeds (Thot Vegetal Hand Remix). I hope you're going to like it. More explanations about this remix on our blog Thank your for your votes and your support. Grégoire //"

Info: "Like many Nine Inch Nails’ fans, I was expecting a lot about their 2005 album, With Teeth. Because The Fragile era was so exciting. But when I’ve heard the first single ‘The Hand that Feeds‘, I was disapointed. I think I was begging for something else. The song was too easy. Then, I’ve learned to “never expect anything from you favorite bands” (of from anyone). Anyway, when Trent Reznor gave the opportunity to everyone to remix their songs, I’ve decided to remix The Hand that Feeds. I hope you’re going to like this manipulation. I was also disapointed when I’ve went in Paris, at Le Zenith (2005) to see Nine Inch Nails live. The show was crap."

Masske - Paper Robots (EP) (2009)

Masske, erneut eine experimentelle Band gefunden auf WiseOwlRecords, ist ein experimentell-/psychedelisches industrial Art Rock Konzept mit stark verzerrten Gitarren, monotonen Beats und aufwendigen Bassläufen. Der erste Track klingt ein bisschen nach ultraverzerrter Lounge-Musik und lässt das Herz eines experimentellen Musikgeniessers höher schlagen. Masske scheinen schliesslich einen ganz eigenen Stil zu haben, der nur wenig Spielraum für Anlehnungen an Bekanntere bietet. Ein Beispiel könnte hier vielleicht Tortoise sein, Masske klingt jedoch noch einen Grad authentischer, echter.

Beginnend mit Shuttles wird genau diese Industrial-Atmosphäre hergestellt, gleichzeitig diese Unschuld, die wir schon von Bands wie Jesu kennen. Masske vermag es jedoch, ohne Gesang konstant gutes Niveau und fesselnde Lines zu kreieren.

Behind Broken Glass ist der zweite Song, der recht episch und kraftvoll beginnt, mit noch mehr Verzerrung überzeugt, hier nun auch auf dem Bass angewendete Distortion. Krasser Wechsel , dann nach knapp einer Minute, der Song scheint wieder in Richtung Jesu zu gehen, Sekunden später der erneute Ausbruch in düstere Industrial-Momente mit ebenfalls recht monotonen Beats und packenden Bassläufen. Klingt jetzt wie eine überlange Bridge.

Der Titeltrack ist dann schon eher wieder so eine Art Industrial Lounge Rock, oder wie man das nennen will. Wunderschön entspannender Track mit verzerrter Bassline. Nach 50 Sekunden ist die Lounge Atmosphäre weggeblasen und der Track wird schwerer, mit der allerdings gleichbleibenden Melodie. Wunderbarer Track.

Where the Wolves are beginnt schon sehr experimentell und recht ruhig mit den konstanten Elektrobeats. Feine Gitarrensoli führen in eine erneut härtere, rauhere Welt. Die Tatsache, dass Paper Robots eine rein instrumentale EP ist, macht das ganze noch ein bisschen psychedelischer und auch faszinierender.

Mit Paper Robots ist Masske eine EP gelungen, die wahrlich Charakter hat. Paper Robots weiss in jeder Hinsicht zu überzeugen und langweilt überhaupt nicht, und das ohne grossartige Gitarrensoli, komplexe Beats und so weiter. Daumen hoch, weiter so!

_______________________________________________________

Masske, again an experimental band found on WiseOwlRecords, is an experimental-/psychedelic industrial art rock concept with strong distorted guitars, monotonous beats and exciting basslines. The first track sounds a bit like ultra-distorted lounge-music and lets beat the heart of each fan of experimental music. Masske seem to have a very own style, that leaves few playroom for similarities to well-known bands. An example of one could be Tortoise, but Masske sounds more authentic, truer.

Starting with Shuttles, this industrial atmosphere is being produced, at the same time the feeling of innocence that we already know from bands like Jesu. Though Masske is able to create catchy lines without vocals on a constant high niveau.

Behind Broken Glass is the seconds song, which starts kind of epic and strong, with even more distortion, also on the bass. Strong change at about one minute, the song seems to go more into the direction of Jesu, seconds later another outbreak into dark industrial moments with monotonous beats and catchy basslines as well. That sounds now like a damn long bridge.

The title track is more like industrial lounge rock or what you would like to call it. Wonderful chilling track with distorted bassline. After 50 seconds, the lounge atmosphere drops dead and the track gets heavier, with the same melody though. Wonderful track as well.

Where the Wolves are starts more experimental and pretty calm with these monotonous drumbeats again. Finest guitar solos lead to a heavier, rawer world again. The fact that Paper Robots is a pure instrumental EP makes the whole thing even more psychedelic but also exciting.

With Paper Robots, Masske created an EP that is very delicious and has got a lot of character. Paper Robots knows how to get you along and does not bore anytime you listen to – though it does not have a lot of awesome guitar solos, no complex drumbeats neither other stuff that makes a usual rock CD good (Since this is not usual rock!). Thumbs up, carry on!

NIN|JA 2009 Toursampler


Und wieder mal gibts eine Veröffentlichung von den Nine Inch Nails, dieses mal rührt Herr Reznor aber die Werbetrommel für die anstehende Tour mit Jane's Addiction und Street Sweeper. Jede der Bands liefert 2 bis jetzt unveröffentlichte Tracks ab und die EP gibts dann, wie man es inzwischen ja wohl gewohnt ist von den Nine Inch Nails, umsonst zum downloaden.

Fangen wir mit der unbekannteren der 3 Bands an: Street Sweeper sind eine "rap rock supergroup" bestehend aus Tom Morello (Ex-RATM, Ex-Audioslave, Nightwatchman) und Boots Riley (The Roots), die bis jetzt noch kein Album veröffentlicht hat. Clap For The Killers und The Oath heißen die beiden Tracks, die mich ganz ehrlich gesagt überhaut nicht vom Hocker reißen... mit Rap-Rock hab ich eigentlich noch nie sonderlich viel anfangen können und anscheinend hat sich das bis jetzt nicht geändert. Jeder, den diese Musikrichtung interessiert kann ja mal reihören, alle anderen können die 2 Tracks ja auch einfach überspringen wie ich.

Chip Away und Whores heißen die 2 Tracks, die Jane's Addiction neu aufgenommen haben und zum Sampler beisteuern. Die Band um Perry Farrell ist ja nicht unbedingt bekannt für ihre Arbeitswut (3 Studioalben in 24 Jahren) sondern eher dafür, dass ihre Songs einen großen Bereich der Rockmusik abdecken. Genauso ist es auch bei diesen zwei Tracks: während Whores ein relativ straighter Rocksong ist, liefern Jane's Addiction mit Chip Away ein ganz besonderes Stück Musik ab, das mir persönlich ganz gut gefällt, mir aber die Worte fehlen, um es adequat zu beschreiben. Ursprünglich defanden sich die beiden Tracks auf dem ersten Album der Alternative Rock-Pioniere Jane's Addiction, ein Livealbum aus dem Jahre 1987. Jeder, der die Band nicht kennt, sollte hier definitiv mal reinhören.

Zuletzt gibts noch neues vom Industrial-Klangzauberer Reznor, dessen 2 Tracks auch gut von der With Teeth stammen könnten. Mehr muss dazu eigentlich nicht gesagt werden: wem With Teeth gefällt, dem gefallen auch Not So Pretty Now und Non-Entity... mir gefällts auf jeden fall.

Insgesamt ergibt sich ein etwas zwiespältiger Eindruck, vor allem von der anstehenden Tour, da alle Bands doch sehr untewrschiedlich sind und das ganze schon auf der EP nicht so ganz zusammenpassen will. Davon kann und sollte sich dennoch jeder selber überzeugen... sowohl live als auch auf dieser EP.

___________________________________________________________


With his newest release, Trent Reznor and his Nine Inch Nails seem to run an advertising campaign for their latest tour with Jane's Addiction and Street Sweeper. Each of the three bands contributes 2 previously unreleased tracks and the EP itself can then be downloaded from a special homepage created only for that purpose... like the last few times Mr Reznor released something.

Let's start with the least known band: Street Sweeper is a rap rock supergoup consisting of Tom Morello (ex RATM, ex Audioslave, Nightwatchman) and Boots Riley (The Roots). Those two haven't released any records so far and as far as I am concerned, after listening to their contributions (Clap For The Killers and The Oath), I don't really care that much if they ever do. Don't get me wrong, the tracks are probably good, but I could never get into that rap rock sound. Everybody who likes that kind of music, go ahead, give it a try but I will keep skipping those two tracks.

Jane's Addiction chose to re-record Chip Away and Whores from their debut live album Jane's Addiction and have them put on this sampler. Although the band never released a lot of records (only 3 studio records in about 24 years, not counting the many times they broke up and then reunited), they managed to incorporate a lot of different styles in those records. And it's the same with the two tracks on this sampler: Whores being a pretty straigt rock song and Chip Away being somthing entirely different I don't know how to describe right now... but I like it. Everybody how doesn't know Jane's Addiction yet should definitely listen to these songs.

Last but not least, there's 2 tracks by Mr Reznor which sound just like they were off of With Teeth and if you liked With Teeth, you are going to like Not So Pretty Now and Non-Entity... which I do.

All in all this package leaves me a little bit puzzled considering the fact that these three bands are going on tour together while they don't really have anything in common except that they all make music. It just doesn't work that well for me... but what do I know. And after
all, you have to decide for yourself.

Nine Inch Nails - Another Version Of The Truth (2009)


"Schon wieder ein Live-Release vom Herrn Reznor?" mag sich der eine oder andere jetzt Fragen, ist es doch erst eineinhalb Jahre her, dass uns der Klangzauberer Beside You In Time schenkte, und das natürlich in HD. Nun stellt sich weiter die Frage, wenn ich All That Could Have Been und Beside You In Time schon kenne, brauche ich dann Another Version Of The Truth überhaupt? Meine Antwort lautet "Ja!" und zwar weil es sich bei dieser "Veröffentlichung" um ein ganz besonderes Projekt handelt.

Das Jahr 2008 war ein ganz besonderes Jahr für die Nine Inch Nails: Erfüllung des Vertrages mit Universal, Online-Veröffentlichung der Alben Ghosts I-IV und The Slip, ausverkaufte Hallen auf der "Lights In The Sky"-Tour. Und genau auf dieser Tour haben dutzende von Fans die letzte Show gefilmt. Das Problem an der Sache war, dass das Material offiziell Universal gehört. Deshalb wurden einfach die 400GB (!) Rohmaterial kurzerhand am 07.01.2009 geleakt... und zwar von Herrn Reznor selbst (Zitat: "The internet is full of surprises these days.").

Schnell hat sich dann eine Gruppe von Menschen dazu bereiterklärt, das Rohmaterial zu editieren und die erst Fan-DVD zu kreieren (thisoneisonus.org). Vorab gibt es ein Audio-Release, das ungefähr 4,5 Stunden an Livemitschnitten der Tour beinhaltet, aufgespaltet in zwei Alben: The Gift und Las Vegas. Bei Las Vegas handelt es sich um das komplette Las Vegas Konzert, wie es von den Fans aufgezeichnet wurde und The Gift ist, wie es der Name schon sagt, ein Geschenk von Herrn Reznor an seine Fans.

Geboten wird auf beiden Zusammenstellungen ein Querschnitt über alle Schaffensphasen der Nine Inch Nails, performt vom wohl besten NIN-Lineup, das es jemals gegeben hat... und das hört man den Aufnahmen gewaltig an. So tight und kraftvoll war keine der bis jetzt
veröffentlichten Live-Aufnahmen. Die Las Vegas-Show ist zwar von der Soundqualität her der von Trent selber aufgenommenen und gemasterten The Gift unterlegen (trotzdem sehr gute Bootleg-Qualität), hat aber eine bessere Songauswahl (meiner Meinung nach).

The Gift beinhaltet God Given, The Wretched und Vessel, wohingegen Las Vegas mit The Great Destroyer, Reptile und einer Ansprache zum Tourende von Trent aufwarten kann... und God Given und The Wretched tausche ich persönlich jeder Zeit gegen The Great Destroyer (mein Lieblingstrack von der Year Zero) und Reptile (einer der besten Tracks von der Downward Spiral) ein.

Also, für alle Skeptiker, holt euch das Paket und lasst euch wegblasen von der besten NIN-Live-Veröffentlichung bis jetzt. Wenn ihr mitmachen wollt, registriert euch bei thisoneisonus.org und helft mit:

By working together, we're creating a DVD to document these shows that will be released free online, followed by a physical release. This one is on us. Our time. Our effort. Our gift to all NIN fans.

___________________________________________________________


"Another live release?" one might ask, especially because it has only been one and a half years since Trent Reznor gave us Beside You In Time (in HD). The next question one might ask is: "If I already know All That Could Have Been and Beside You In Time, does Another Version Of The Truth even have something new to offer?". My answer would be "Yes!" in this instance, because this is no odinary release.

The year 2008 was a very special one for NIN: last LP under Universal, Ghosts I-IV and The Slip released online, sold out shows on the Lights In The Sky tour. And on this tour, a dozen fans have recorded the final show... the problem is, that oficially, this material still belongs to Universal. That's why 400GB (!) of raw material were leaked into the internet... by Mr Reznor himself ("The internet is full of surprises these days.").

Lots of people downloaded this stuff and started editing, thus creating the first fan DVD (thisoneisonus.org). In advance they released the the audio material, which is about 4,5 hours in length and contains two seperate CDs: The Gift and Las Vegas. Las Vegas is the final show of the tour recorded by the fans and The Gift is, as its name says, a gift by Trent Reznor to his fans.

The setlist contains songs from every phase of the Nine Inch Nails with a perfect balance between old and new, performed by the best NIN lineup that has ever been... and that is exactly what you hear, when you listen to this record: never before have they sounded so powerful, never before have they played so tightly. Although the Las Vegas release has an inferior soundquality (but still good quality) compared to The Gift, which was recorded and mastered by Trent himself, it has the superior songs:

The Gift has God Given, The Wretched and Vessel, whereas Las Vegas has The Great Destroyer, Reptile and a speech by Mr Reznor, about the end of the tour, this concert being Josh Freeses last with NIN and so on... and I personally would trade God Given and The Wretched for The Great Destroyer (my favourite on Year Zero) and Reptile (one of my all time favourites) in a heartbeat.

So, to summarize for all you sceptics out there: get the audio release and get blown away by the best NIN live-performance yet. If you want to help and get involved, register to thisoneisonus.org:

By working together, we're creating a DVD to document these shows that will be released free online, followed by a physical release. This one is on us. Our time. Our effort. Our gift to all NIN fans.
