24. The Hand That Feeds - This One Is On Us presents "Another Version Of The Truth : The Gift"

[Guitarprophet2145]

I don't think people appreciate the amount that Alessandro put into their live stuff.

[TheIndustrialism]

Good editing but... where's Cortini? He doesn't apeears so much as Robin in the whole dvd; like this video, he appears sometimes or others. So sad to editing like this.

[JasonJudas]

the crowd's really loving it, thats a lot of clapping hands (y)

[starstruckstarfuck]

ive never liked THTF live.

it just isnt as good as the studio recording at all.

it doesnt have the dancey-ness of it. this is probably NIN's worst song to play live :(

[daveissod]

His voice is really going to hell, it sounds like crap on most of these videos. Too much touring i suppose...or getting older.

[KiffendesFrettchen]

@davissod: I don't agree. I think his voice is simply amazing, just because it sounds so raspy and broken. That's what makes it so awesome! He has the best voice a man ever had.

[daveissod]

@KiffendesFrettchen  this not what he usually sounds like, I've seen him 3x in concert and if you listen to his albums, his voice is not broken or raspy, he actually has a very smooth voice. these videos are atypical. in some parts that he's supposed to scream or be louder you can tell he's holding back.

[KiffendesFrettchen]

@daveissod Unfortunately I never had the honor to see him in concert. But now that you say so, I have to admit that you are actually kinda right. Especially on the old albums like Pretty Hate Machine you notice his voice sounding different and more smooth than on these videos. But anyway I wouldn't say he sounds crappy here, he still has his own recognition value. And probably this is because of my shitty PC-speakers, but I'd say on the Beside You In Time BluRay he doesn't sound much different

[hatfisc]

Love NIN but THTF is his biggest fail.

[michaeltgrace]

@hatfisc I disagree. It's a great powerpop/dancerock tune. Every commercially viable album needs a single. It's all about the hook.

[hatfisc]

I don't disagree but there's something about the words "commercially viable" that don't seem to go along with Reznor. Maybe I'm too old school NIN.

[michaeltgrace]

Definitely. I agree entirely, but the musical landscape was entirely different from 89-94. Head like a hole was a fun, catchy up tempo number that could be played in clubs. A couple songs on Broken were getting catchier.Closer caught on because of the strong hook that resonated with the disenfranchised youth of the time. I'm an old school NIN fan, but I remember the first time me and the boys heard With_teeth, we were in the studio and we were so floored we almost said "fuck it" to our album ha

[metfan911]

HE got married thats why he stopped

[NorthernStorm]

@metfan911 that's bullshit!

[KarbiQ]

Poor Trent. It has to be so difficult to sing this after so many gigs he did. :( Hope that he will relax for a while and come with an awesome record then. :)

[LitterCircus]

@KarbiQ Well he gets payed for that it's his job^^

[unlitdarkness6]

damn i think with teeth should have been played instead of this. But i do see where it fits in the concert.

[ajaxrulzz]

The audio isn't from the public i gues???

[enjoiskate88]

This is amazing. Free filming policy at gigs FTW!

[Atak0fth3Umpalumpas]

This is from the bands camera's. They released 450GB worth of footage on bittorent a few months ago. NIN didn't have an open camera policy until the last few wave goodbye shows.

[blbmarkblb]

this one is fan filmed

[wthdude]

Do alot of fans show up to a concert with a HD camera? I think all of the footage is from the bands camera's.

[ianborras]

it is stupid they offered three concerts on their website for people to edit

[wthdude]

People didn't need to edit the footage any more than they wanted to. You could just download it for your own personal use. It's fucking awesome that they made all the footage from these concerts available!

[ThisOneIsOnUs]

@blbmarkblb This one is filmed by the band and edited by the fans.
