Nine Inch Nails - Happiness In Slavery

[BlueRivaly]

The album cover bores me to death 

[evildnalor]

This song reminds me of the NDP's evolution over the last 30 years. From becoming a small party with great values and a lot of support. To the progressive conservatives new lap dogs.

[chrisisthewin]

1:08 fucking LOVE that riff. Favourite NIN song by a country mile.

[fortheloveoftunes]

0:32 nice grooveshift 0:50 again 1:36 me like yes .-)

[TyphoonHubert]

listening to NIN is better than drugs

[burton0078]

love the bass and the song and love the artwork!!!!!!

[MakinaDeMuerte]

This is the worlds theme song.

[mrB0DYmassageMACHINE]

When i was younger i was hearing "SLICED BREAD" instead of "SLAVE SCREAMS"

[5che13e]

Motherfucker of a tune! Sometimes I forget the sick music he created in those first 5 years.

[SirHawkeyeWho]

I really like the EP but I have to keep away from the movie because it makes me feel quite ill and I don't want it to ruin NIN for me.

[doctorHOUSE]

Lets see X factor cover this and change the lyrics to 'Happy Screams, He thinks he knows what he wants ooohhh baby'

[demonchicken1986]

"I don't know what I am. I don't know where ive been. Human junk just words and so much skin. Stick my hand through the cage of this endless routine. Just some flesh caught in this big broken machine."

[BarnabasFrid]

I did a performance art bit where I changed the lyrics to "I'm a mess, I'm obsessed with Ciaran Hinds and Beverly." No one understood what I was trying to say... looking back, that's a good thing.

[danielinraleigh]

This is a great drive to work song.

[grabesmond1]

i`m broken machine too............

[ClaudiaLovesMCR]

Just saw the video. It's some pretty hardcore stuff. o_e

[sQuaReStepp3r]

@ClaudiaLovesMCR very true...so crazy. I LOVE IT

[missdeadzone]

um trent promoted MM...

[Bostonian91]

I don't know what I am, I don't know where I've been,

Human junk, just words and so much skin

Stick my hands through the cage of this endless routine,

Just some flesh caught in this big, broken machine.

Well I'm off to work.

[redeyeshadowkitten]

2:08 is awesome

[28483492493583483194]

Slave screams, he thinks he knows what he wants.

[seymournuggets]

He hears but doesn't want to listen!!!

[MSPIGGY78]

[OneNationUnderMe]

My favourite Album / Video's

Somebodysomething.

[L0UDBOT]

Can't knock the hustle.

[GenTechJ]

So wait, all people seem to remember this song for is the video which no one apparently gets, or the heaviness. No one pays attention to the lyrics. Awesome

[SAVikingSA]

@GenTechJ it's a goddamn shame, ain't it....especially given the times we live in

[dazadestroy]

they play like marilyn manson xD

[Plowdal1342431]

@dazadestroy .............except...Marilyn Manson...isn't.....AS rich as this stuff...sorry.......I mean I'm not sorry. NIN fans are cooler ',:^D just kidding, this is my oppinion

[dazadestroy]

@Plowdal1342431 no problem, i know that every head is a different world with a different opinion

[hlokaty]

@dazadestroy This was a lil before Mansons time.Trent coached Manson & signed him to his record label NOTHING, so technically Manson would play like NIN -.-

[VEVAofficial]

i@dazadestroy  Nine Inch Nails made Manson.. This is the real darkness!!

[happyninslave]

@VEVAofficial darkness is you!!

[dazadestroy]

@VEVAofficial yes, now i understand...manson is a copycat of the musical style of NIN

[KedViper]

@dazadestroy Manson was Trent Reznor's one time protege.

[OneTheyForgot]

SLAVE SCREAMS

[PTR131]

One person has not found happiness in slavery.

[poorscoobydoo]

@PTR131 shut up.

[PTR131]

@poorscoobydoo Kiss my ass!

[razeal18]

one person dosent like a human body being mangled, then again i prefer this graphic to seeing an old guys junk

[cityside75]

When we were in college we had some annoying neighbors in our dorm that were often loud late at night. One night we delivered some "payback" in the form of this song on a large boombox at FULL volume at approximately 3am.

[thestoned77]

@cityside75

I also did a same thing to my dorm's fuckin noisy neighbor around same o'clock just in my college days in Japan. it's Like "Take this shit!! " : I was really mad for NIN.

...and i think there are so many people in the world who have the same beautiful& crazy memory (L).

[HmniND]

@cityside75 cool story bro

[benmcclure85]

@cityside75 Isn't that the proper way to experience this track?

[saumier1]

Has anyone seen the video for this song? well my sister showed it to me when I was 11! Basically some dude puts himself in this mechanical torture chair. the video show's some fuckd up shit!  Still gives me the chills!

[MirandaWinn]

@saumier1 I watched that video with my best friend and we couldn't stop laughing when he gets his dick hacked off.

[saumier1]

@MirandaWinn ya, my sister was having a good laugh too

[TheNineinchsnails]

this song has some of the greatest lyrics of all time imo

[Lukas240681]

Do you know what is in the background of this cover? Those yellow shapes?

[MirandaWinn]

I am the 21,371st person to watch it.

[8L4SPH3R10N18755]

im the 18,843rd person to watch this video

[HotAesopX]

I'm the 17,127th person to view this video.

[HotAesopX]

Nine Inch Nails kicks ass.......period!!!

[MatthuStull]

I'm the 16,666 person to play this 'video'......

[printz150]

I love this song, very dynamic.

[ejafjallajokul]

playing this song before going to the dentist xD

[a7xbigfan9]

@ejafjallajokul I'm going tomorrow to get a tooth pulled

[sw333tzCB]

@ejafjallajokul Fair play that made me chuckle. Must of been horrific xD

[JesusCristo2002]

If anything in regards to this specific track, it's one that archetypically defines Trent Reznor's character in this particular time in his career; with his heavy drug addiction - and his aesthetically, artistically and well-crafted musical material - he did indeed find "Happiness In Slavery". I am happier he's in a better place, but I doubt he'll make anything as well-crafted, and musically, aesthetically, artistically and conceptually significant as "The Fragile".

[Al5xmo]

@JesusCristo2002 You spelled "The Downward Spiral" wrong ;)

[DJReveerb]

@JesusCristo2002 I think Ghost's is up there as well.

[PshGirlPlease14]

The music video is pretty creepy. It was awkward watching it with my boyfriend lol.

[Kell1295]

...happiness

[SamDakota86]

This song kicks ass!If you ever saw the music video,it will scare the shit out of you.

[TheRandomvidstv]

@SamDakota86 it's the most disturbing vid in history i think

[DJReveerb]

@TheRandomvidstv You obviously haven't seen August Underground's Mordum. The video's for Broken are like cute kittens compared to it. 

[KitanaOne]

@DJReveerb - Mordum is crap. It's so low-budget it's not believable.

Granted the video for "Broken" is crap too. *As much as I love COIL and Chris Christopherson... it's still shit. Even something as hardcore "Philosophy of a Knife" is a bit weak to me. None of it compares to actual real life.

[DJReveerb]

@KitanaOne I disagree. The special effects at the disembowelment scene, but I would have to say the rest was spot on. It is made to look like it was shot on an old camcorder. Although I agree for a movie made in 2005, they should have used a lower end digital camera. Rather than a 90's camcorder.

[TheNineinchsnails]

@TheRandomvidstv 3 guys 1 hammer

[femoman]

@TheNineinchsnails Agreed. Most fucked up thingk I have ever seen. Followed by Pain Olympics, then Broken Movie, then Cannibal Holocaust and Faces of Death.

[TheNineinchsnails]

@femoman lol you forgot to mention guinea pig films...

[DJReveerb]

@TheNineinchsnails Just recently discovered Guinea Pig 2. Although there are things that make it phony (There are points at which I would think blood should be coming out with more force.) You can see bone, and shit. The sound effects also add another level, but I wish they would have been mixed quieter because they are so loud that it is not realistic.

[TheNineinchsnails]

@DJReveerb well they fooled charlie sheen lol...or was it the other sheen idk lol

[DJReveerb]

@TheNineinchsnails Yeah. It was him. He reported it to the FBI, and the investigator who got it first thought it was fucking real too!

[zeedog14]

@SamDakota86 scarier than Tetsuo: The Iron Man!!!!!

[Thefisharedead]

@SamDakota86 Haha It does.The video wasn't too bad.Great Imagery.

[quidseeker]

@SamDakota86 3 men and a hammer is worse.

[Chameleonizer]

Wow I just noticed that on the album cover the N's in "Nine Inch Nails" are backwards =0

[JasonVoorheesLives]

@Chameleonizer lol i knew that in 1995 lulz

[foxiefur]

@Chameleonizer all are backwards minus 2

[LucidDream101]

@Chameleonizer except broken. i think you missed the point there guru

[goonerjimmy30]

@Chameleonizer apart from the last 'n' my son

[missdeadzone]

@Chameleonizer u dont know its 2 girls and a guy...lol
