Ranking REALLY BAD Band Logos 

COVID-19 was too old for him anyway.

Oof 😅

..oohh😂

You aren’t funny & no one laughed

@@higherpower-fp2jd why u butt hurt friend?

Made me laugh. Thanks.

Nailed it.

So true.

😂

Skinny Puppy did it in the 80s!

Pretty Hate Machine was basically Skinny Puppy with more accessible vocals

NIN isn't bad, but honestly, a lot of other industrial rock/metal bands do what they do better. KMFDM, Pig, Ministry, Godflesh, White Zombie, Fear Factory, even Filter honestly. Plus, most of what NIN has done since The Fragile just ain't up my alley. Trent Reznor is also a massive dick. He hated on Chris Cornell for making "dance music" but he makes the soundtracks for animated kids movies... In general, he just seems like an arrogant douche.

pro tools, huh? why do people think a DAW suddenly made electronic music easy? it just makes some things more convenient, but back then he was using other digital sequencers and trackers which protools to this day doesn't include. if anything a DAW hurt music creation because people started using their eyes more than their ears.

@@diskyboy1990 white zombie and filter dont touch nin imo. But my favorite nin albums are the 2000s ones lol plus The Fragile, i love the post rock elements and cinematic feel

Yep, very much agree. Glad I didn't have to go far to find this comment. It's crazy how I'll totally agree with Finn one minute and the next think he's an idiot haha

@@kwilcox417 don't take Finn too seriously. he likes so much emo garbage that his takes are definitely questionable at best. I think he's funny to watch but his opinions are total dogshit half the time

I am admittedly biased but that's by far the worst take from him on this channel.😂

The thing is with Nine Inch Nails, production wise they were ahead of their time, but Trents songwriting is very indebted to the 80's, which I think worked best on Pretty Hate Machine and Broken (big blunt choruses to a company big noise), but the "Closer" is the first example of the clash of the new and the old (the arrangement is nuanced but the song is still kinda big and dumb). The Fragile completely amputated their 80's tendencies

@@darrenthetuber743 Not even sure what your point is, no offense. NIN evolved. Yep? It's perfectly fine to be one of the (in my half-joking opinion) crazy goobers who think PHM and Broken are the pinnacle of NIN material, but most would tell you that you just don't get it. And this is coming from somebody who thinks they have been pretty hit or miss for years and years now, so I'm not like a blindly loyal follower, but stuff like The Downward Spiral, Fragile, and And All That Could Have Been have some absolute MASTERPIECES on them, and it's largely thanks to a lot of the ambient and instrumental pieces in there that don't get the same attention as the singles. It's just apples and oranges and doesn't really sound like anything else out there in an awesome way. I'd bet your casual NIN fan couldn't even tell you if they've ever heard the song "Leaving Hope", and it's seriously one of the most beautiful, heart-wrenching pieces of music I have ever heard in my life, no hyperbole. I mean Finn also in his video right before this one defended Tool by saying he thinks Opiate is really cool. Ok cool, fair enough, but that's almost insulting when you set it against everything that went into creating an album like Lateralus that was completely unique with layers and layers to it. Equally silly take and any Tool fan would agree with me on that one too.

Yeah I bout dropkicked my monitor when he was saying that goofy shit lol.

I want to learn more. Please reveal to me the layers.

Bro, closer is not a deep cut, it's one of the singles of the album. Of course it needs to be able to be judged on its own merits, the huge majority of people who have listened to this song have never listened to the whole album.

@@RafitoOoO never at any point did I say it WAS a “deep cut”. I’m fully aware of its single status. However, all of that is not to say that it can’t have depth. I was merely talking about how people butcher the songs actual meaning and gloss over it’s myriad complexities as a direct result of treating it like any other “single” that’s out there. Which is inherently wrong to do with this song specifically since It is in fact, part of a concept album, therefore immediately out of context when looking at it as a standalone single.

beavis and butthead reference...nice!

That really was such a trash ass take, like NIN is one of the most versatile and groundbreaking acts out there when you have extreme industrial rock type stuff on one hand and then some of the most hauntingly beautiful, heart-wrenching instrumental ambient stuff or whatever you wanna call it on the other, you can't just point at Closer and go "this is what NIN is", that's ludicrous. Plus I still think Closer is fuckin killer as a single and the production is crazy.

@@michaelhaydenbell also the fact people are still hearing closer for the first time these days losing their $@#% speaks to NIN's longevity. ofc it's not for everyone, and yea there is stuff 20, even 30 years before trent that was more inventive (that he often credits)

Profanatica is my favorite black metal band

@@startervisionsvery good indeed but GRAND BELIAL’S KEY are better from the US

Richard CHeese is better

I like punk rock too, and I love NIN. Finn is just an idiot in his opinion of NIN lol

@@fray3dendsofsanity It’s really, objectively, not very good. Thoughtful critique!

I'm in the same boat. That was peak Zombie when he was firing on all cylinders. Educated Horses was different and not as good, but that was a fun listen too.

Alright.

Also nin best album is with teeth. It feels like more of an Indie rock album or something with the occasional depressing song

If NIN is weird industrial to you, avoid Throbbing Gristle.

Well Rob needed to nap and their soundcheck was bothering him

I worked with a nurse who loved Rob Zombie and got the VIP. He didn't say a word to her she was so disappointed I never heard her talk about him again.

Apple fans are a small (but annoyingly loud) minority here in the US, so proud to overpay for tech that Android had 5 years earlier

La Sexorcisto is my recommendation

well he did say "objectively" so he must be correct /S

And Rob Zombie.

He is great for Halloween playlists though, along with alot of psychobilly bands, post-Danzig Misfits, and Helloween 😂

It’s the gnarly old matted dreads. I always think people with dreads probably smell! 😂

"Have you listened to them lately" doesn't mean "have you listened to their newer stuff"

@@hrotha dude, I was making a joke. DO not take it too seriously!

Their Woodstock 94 performance is legendary and when they played closer they blew it out of the water. And closer becomes a bit less corny when you know what it’s about. It’s a very tragic song. The downward spiral is my favorite album of all time.

​​@@thomasanthony5021I feel like your opinion on Closer greatly depends on the attitude you have listening to it. Personally, I think it's a brilliant song with the way it just builds intensity the whole time with the various strange noises. How it starts off very quiet and at the end, it's very noisy. It works even better following songs like Heresy and March of the Pigs. It's just so messed up but also so catchy. I'm actually a bit shocked Finn thought it was trash.

@@Itbecause it might have partially been a case of it just being inescapable and played to death. plenty of otherwise decent songs get ruined for me that way. but it still is pretty far down the list of their songs in order of how much i like them

@@thomasanthony5021 i liked the album as a whole. i probably liked the fragile more. it's been a really long time since i've listened to either of them

most of my top 10 would be from the Fragile album, aside from Wish and Hurt

I’m genuinely curious where the RV graphics aesthetic comes from and why every RV has it even though you don’t see anything like it on other vehicles

@sixty2612 I wonder, too. I worked at a wrap shop, and people would bring their RV in and could have anything in the world put on them. 100% wanted the tribal.

@@DrProfessorMD it’s just such a standard in the whole industry nobody knows anything different. I just tried googling the origins of it and didn’t find any real answers. Most people said it’s a way to break up what would otherwise be plain, large surfaces. But you could do that with designs that aren’t swoopy or tribal-tattooesque. Maybe there’s like one guy that designs all of them who’s been around all these years haha

It's actually misogyny. They think women in age 20 or above are children

The Ranger's sound effects were also Trent. When you jump around, the HUP HUP HUP is him!

@@IzunaSlap that’s pretty funny

There's no better music for wallowing in self-pity. For a drunken pity party, The Downward Spiral is unmatched. But I don't want to sit around feeling sorry for myself. I want to improve my life and succeed. I don't want to dwell on past failures. And so, NIN doesn't gel with me. I'm more of a Pantera "YEAH lets kick ass and get things done!" guy than a NIN "my life is fucked up and i feel like shit" guy.

My thoughts exactly. I WANTED to like them and to be able to wear that logo with pride, but I just couldn't. But it is a hell of a logo.

I will say I really like their EP "Broken". It's some good hard and aggressive stuff, makes me ask why the rest of their stuff wasn't like that.

@@throttlehorn Funny when that's the stuff that sounds most like other music out there than anything else they made but sure, man. It doesn't have to be for everyone and I'll just tell you that saying you're in the minority is a massive understatement.

It's their best album. I like finn but he has some shit takes

the cute goth chicks liked Trent, the not so cute ones preferred Manson

@@IzunaSlap Lol

What's "creepy"?

Quake 1 was the best Id Software game

much better than Ghosts, which is a kinda awkward listen if you're expecting ambient

iphones are boomer phones? Alrighty lol.

@@michaelhaydenbell Yaduh

Love how the people saying this seem to only know like 5 NIN songs. What you just said is insane lol.

@@michaelhaydenbell I’m actually a pretty big fan, first concert I went to was Downward Spiral tour, and have seen them five times since. Kept up with the music too, just don’t think anything tops PHM and maybe Broken ep.

I disagree but I can see why you might feel that way. It's funny because no one would have said that 20 years ago. I think it has to do with the 80s retro appeal.

@@michaelhaydenbell LOL right...PHM stans are actually more annoying than NIN haters. The Fragile and With Teeth both have like 5 songs each that outclass anything on Pretty Hate Machine

de mysteriis is overproduced, live in liepzig supremacy forever

U continue to have the worst takes bro
