NIN song query

    A song an old acquaintance of mine used to play was a certain Nine Inch Nails track that had Trent Rezner (sp) screaming the whole way through it. It was, like, one big long scream, not his usual short screams.

    Anyone know what the song is called? Or are there loads of them? I don't know NIN that well bar the downward spiral.

    Incidentally if you like Hurt from that album - check out Johnny Cash's version of it.

    My first, and probably best guess, is 'Happiness in Slavery' from the Broken EP. Good mini-album that. That said, my second guess would be 'Wish' from the same album.
    After that, maybe 'Ruiner' or 'Heresy' from The Downward Spiral.
    Any idea what the lyrics are???

    I agree with Evilution, it's most likely "Happiness in Slavery" or "Wish". Broken's a pretty screamy min-album.

    Screams the whole way through? Maybe "The Downward Spiral" off the album of the same name?

    I agree with Evilution...

    Thats a first for anyone on this website :D

    I think that fits the bill, although the remix on Further Down the Spiral would be even more apt. The remix of eraser (can't remember the name, track 6) on that album is also in the same line

    Isn't there a mostly instrumental track off the Fragile that has Trent kind of screaming through it? It's on the live dvd

    You're thinking of Complication, one of the better instrumental song from The
    Fragile. Possibly the catchest NIN songs in my opinion, great song.

    Haha, this thread is a great advertisement for NIN. 10 different songs that just have Trent screaming the whole way through


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,330 ✭✭✭radiospan


    Sounds like "The Downward Spiral" to me.

    Cool, I'll check out the non downward spiral stuff as I'm sure it's not on that album.

    Thanks for that :)

    It smells like "The Downward Spiral". Big long screams the whole way through, C'mon!


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,480 ✭✭✭projectmayhem


    while we're on the subject, may 2nd is the release date for "with teeth", according to some record label guy (the date is for europe)


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,135 ✭✭✭✭John

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 293 ✭✭Buck Owens

    It does indeed, although I can't help wondering what people who haven't heard NIN would think while reading this thread.

    And then what they'd think having heard them

    What the hell are you talking baout, he almosts whispers that song.

    The song in question is probably Happiness In Slavery though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,135 ✭✭✭✭John


    I think he was talking about the whole album, not the song

    Ok listening to it now I know what you mean, But the part where it gets heavy is all long screams in one vocal and another vocal is whispers. but now that 'The Downward Spiral' is off my list I'm all out of Idea's.

    But I know Its not Happiness In Slavery, at the 41st second, that is not screaming
