Nine Inch Nails - The Only Time

Trent Reznor is one of those guys that lives on in parental infamy with the likes of Marilyn Manson, Ozzy, and Alice Cooper for an awful lot of his material. *see Closer* Still though, you can't deny that in his angry years he made some pretty good music.

Basically refining and popularizing the genre of Industrial Rock, Nine Inch Nails has been around since 1988 spreading angst, anger, and such things. Performing essentially all the instruments in the studio, Reznor is the only true member of NIN. He cycles through touring musicians for live shows though, and they help to change how each song sounds just a little bit in ways that make each live show special.

This song is my favorite off of the album Pretty Hate Machine quite probably because the bass is so freaking catchy. Interestingly enough, you can only find about 3 covers of this song on Youtube, and none of them with the bass, which I find surprising.

I hope you like this song as much as I do

What I'm about

I am Noah, king of casual english; One of those bloggers that just doesn't know how to string a proper sentence together to save his life. I really apologize for those of you that will hate that, apparently my honors in english just didn't stick.

I like everything from Satanic Thrash to Top 40s trash, so I'll probably hit on at least one song that you like someday.

Let's be real though, my main pull is Death Metal and Rap, so you'll see a decent amount of that since those are the two industries I mainly follow.

Schedule and Stuff

The posts go live at 12 am EST. If they don't, I probably wrote them the night before and fell asleep before actually clicking on the publish button. It's all good though.

Music wise I mostly pull from what I like. I'm totally open to suggestions in the comments, so if there's some genre you want to hear more of just let me know and I'll do what I can.

Some of this music might be offensive to you. Apologies, but it'll probably happen. Heck, 6 or 7 years ago I'd probably be appalled at what I'm listening to nowadays, haha

I'll try to always tag for language if the song has it though, so you can at least make sure not to listen to if around younger ears if that's something that concerns you.
