Nine Inch Nails to 'Disappear for a While'

By
Source: Aversion

It could be a while before we hear from Nine Inch Nails again.


Trent Reznor is looking to take Nine Inch Nails out on the road for one last time before putting the band's live incarnation on ice, citing the fact that he feels as if he's taken the band's show as far as he possibly can.


I've been thinking for some time now it's time to make NIN disappear for a while," he said in a statement on the band's website. "Last year's 'Lights in the Sky' tour was something I'm quite proud of and seems like the culmination of what I could pull off in terms of an elaborate production. It was also quite difficult to pull off technically and physically night after night and left us all a bit dazed."


He also kicked out the idea of tapping the perpetually breaking up/reuniting Jane's Addiction out on the road for the jaunt as payback and thanks for being part of the original Lollapalooza lineup in 1990, which was organized by Jane's front man Perry Farrell.

wait.....
2 things. theres still a NIN?

and, These post Bush year dark times with global melting and economic collapse would go nicely with a side of self loathing industrial rock with all the anger of a revolution but no real political awareness or real world human suffering informing artistic direction!!!

oh wait.....good riddance!!

The Racoon Wedding :: Gather Gather Bones/Rattle Rattle Truth

Download The Paper Boy from The Racoon Wedding's album, Gather Gather Bones/Rattle Rattle Truth Sounds Like : they're gonna rip your ribcage out and find your heart RIYL : White Rabbits, Portugal. The Man, Fanfarlo, Rolling Stones ala Beggar's Banquet From the Press Release : Forming from the ashes of Vermicious Knid, and authoring songs in the basement of the all ages not-for-profit art space they own in a nook of the city’s forgotten downtown, frontman Tim Ford and company boast a sense of loyalty to their community that few other bands share. On their debut LP, Gather Gather Bones/Rattle Rattle Truth , issued this October via their own Ford Plant Recordings Co., the band enlisted the help of engineer Leon Taheny (of the Final Fantasy recording credit) and hammered out a record that teems with the spirit of long-forgotten roots music. It’s indebted to the history of mighty back porch music: unbridled, unedited, beautifully intense.

White Rabbits :: It's Frightening

By
Band :: White Rabbits Album :: It's Frightening Song :: They Done Wrong / We Done Wrong Sounds Like: The Midwest strikes back. RIYL: Spoon, The Walkmen, Tapes 'n Tapes A Few Words: White Rabbits (the band) is living in NYC, it's true. However, they are, by all accounts, from the Midwest. This is only a point worth mentioning because I am also from the Midwest, so we have a lot in common that way. Which is to say we have an inherent understanding of vast distances, wind, and non-existent public transport (unless you count Chicago). White Rabbits could also be that band you know you've heard of, but can't remember. For all their PR efforts it's amazing how easily they continue to slip under the proverbial radar (not sure if "radar" is an acronym when used in a cliche, but I'm guessing not). For example, they've been on NPR's "World Cafe" and on Letterman. Furthermore, they played Glastonbury in 2007 PLUS their new album, It'...
