Nine Inch Nails: Happiness In Slavery Woodstock 1994 (Digitally Remastered)

[htiberian]

What the fuck is he doing to that keyboard?

[taniacardenas]

This was my introduction to NIN back in '94, I was 11; this performance -this particular song- blew my mind so fucking hard!!

[MrKarakura]

Does anyone know what type of guitar this is? It's hard to tell, kind of looks like a les paul.

[darkglamour666]

@MrKarakura im not sure what guitar he's using there but i know he played a gibson gothic 12 more recently.

thats a nice guitar too.

[blasterman9]

man Robin Finck was soooooo young during this show

[TheWollenstubby8th]

Ahh.. I remember going to this show back in the 90's.... I remember during this song a was moshing with random people.. the good times... :D

[mythkid1208]

3:55 electronic pads say "c" and "v". Drummer is Chris Vrenna. hmm...

[mythkid1208]

if it wasn't for this video for this song, i wouldn't be listening to NIN

[TheAndiePerson]

Seriously, this is what my parents got to listen to and these are the shows they got to go to...so unfair.

[Devilsblood]

I saw them live and they are killer!!!!!

[Roop433]

Leave it at half volume so when the sick breakdown comes in it just takes over

[dietcoke4breakfast]

fuck is right

[JunkyardGod89]

FUCK!

[flasticruth]

I want to have a band that is almost as cool as nin! if i there's no good stuff on the radio then i want to bring some of this myself! bands like MM, NIN etc.. always was my bigest inspirations .love them!! don't know what i just wrote but i really ment it

[blasterman9]

@flasticruth Me to man, I have been dying to get a band started like NiN, Skinny Puppy, Manson, etc. also, I Play keys and do programming and samples and shit. I used My Arturia with reason 4 and can create the exact sounds and drum patterns I need for march of the pigs so i got that song covered, just need a guitarist....

[DSCook]

Who digitally remastered this? A fucking monkey?

[hyperfocus]

I'll always love NIN even now that Trent is a docile old man. But Jesus Christ - there was nothing like being 16 years old and seeing this. Fucking intensity and nihilistic madness that only comes once in a lifetime. Beautiful memories...

[Skyedward1313]

Fuck me... I need to catch my breath ..what a gem

[limpicatto]

Hell fuckin yea

[flasticruth]

they songs sound so much better live!! ♥

[swat1290]

I had a chance to see NIN Wave Goodbye Tour back in 2009 in Taiwan... but some fuckers fucked up things.

[chrisstlaurent]

HAHAHA Trent is drunk as fuk

[gschl1]

I will never get sick of those 'SLAAVVERRRRRYYYYYYYYY' screams. 

[zackster21]

2:44. trent really knows how to fuck the shit out of that keyboard.

[CodeDarkBlue]

!! wow!!

[sissynana86]

respect the man always



[pumblechooker]

Is this heaven?

[TheNineinchheels]

@pumblechooker no it's hells lol

[darkglamour666]

@crazymiles i think there more inpiration's than influence's

but what ever.

[TheLastPancho]

headbanging my skull like crazy

[shamwoww]

I cant belive something this immense actually exists

[everythingstakensux]

yum :)



[DuendecitoBebedor]

Lo más enfermo y genial que he visto en mi vida. Cuando uno ve cosas como estas se pregunta ¿qué sentido tiene la vida si uno no estuvo ahí? Pero bueno, me queda verlo por Youtube.

[pattonPwr]

probably one of the best live performances of all time.aggressive, raw, violent... amazing.

[basstard013]

The sound is clipping.. Someone tell them to play with a more gentle touch.

[SHAWNWILD1]

If I ever get to do a concert of this magnitude, I would love to have a mud pit near by, it adds such a dark, artistic element to the visualization of the music you hear blasting out those 10,000 watt speakers!!!! I have seen NIN live, korn live, hell yeah live, queens of the stone age live, slipknot and deftones live, puscifer live, a perfect circle live and all I need to see now is TOOL live when they come out with their new album some time around May 2012, I can die after that concert!!!!

[trentbateman]

when i watch this it makes me proud to be an american. only in america could you produce something as amazing as NIN.

[SHAWNWILD1]

@trentbateman I agree with you, I am half Canadian/half American, but I live in Vancouver BC, Canada and it seems that the fucking production level of things out here sucks shit! I am a huge TOOL and NIN fan among other awesome bands like Mudvayne and Slipknot and I make music with these influences and it seems that if I used a Canadian band for inspiration, I'd be dead in the water! Even Canadian TV shows are low budget and suck shit, we need to change that here, its very beautiful up here!!!

[sparkydeltorro]

@trentbateman That is a bit ridiculous.

[tyrannized]

@trentbateman  you are a moron

[crazymiles]

@trentbateman

Even though almost all of Reznor's biggest influences are not American, retard?

You're just trying to leech off Reznor's creativity by latching on to the one thing you have in common: your nationality. Shut the fuck up, you talentless piece of shit.

[CRBjeep]

@trentbateman It's American. And your wrong, Queen were the only thing more amazing than NIN and they weren't produced here.

[royalnaz1]

great song and performance. skinny puppy is crap compared to nin.the only other industrial band that is on there level is ministry.

[entropy44]

trent was practically raping that keyboard lol

god damn, fucking intense performance.

[edthewave]

Back in '94, As awesome as NIN was and still is, their Skinny Puppy influence really shows through.

[edthewave]

Back in '94, As awesomeas NIN was and still is, their Skinny Puppy influence really shows through.

[DkPirat]

Nine Inch Nails....THE BEST LIVE BAND EVER!!!!!!

HOLY SMOKE,intense as hell. Sad to know i never will get the opportunity to see them perform live again.

[ls883]

Ya see, back in '95 the jury for the Grammys (best live performance) actually were on the ball when they chose this as the winner. xfd

[Staphylin]

NIN got a grammy award for this song and especially this performance !

[RewaChackel]

This is THE MUSIC!

[punkvader77]

This is gey

[devilhunter123100]

@punkvader77 you spelt gay wrong

[kutcharaninfan]

@punkvader77 i trust the opinion of one who cant spell gay correctly

[cavs608]

@punkvader77 gey u say? is this some sort of bird. i wanna know what this gey u speak of is

[fashionshow1000]

I must have watched this video a million times and it's still one of the best if not my favourite live video ever, the energy and everything on this performance is amazing, i'd have killed to be there.

[taraj123]

2 people slipped in he mud and missed the like button, pussies.

[lp0amy0pam92]

i wish i had a time machine, so i could go back in the 90s!

[Salerwhoa]

@lp0amy0pam92 Exactly how I feel.

[ARWorksProductions]

This is just so far beyond amazing

[MissPurestFeeling]

THEY ARE PERFECT! NOTHING TO ADD TO! PERFECT!

[bupples]

I used to like this, but the whole thing feels a bit phony

[ignorethefashion82]

@bupples What about it feels phoney? This was one of the first albums I ever owned and I respect it more now than I did then, if that's even possible. NIN is some of the most genuine music ever created, especially when compared to the horseshit that's out today.

[kutcharaninfan]

@ignorethefashion82 dude. i couldnt agree with you anymore with all these talentless cock-wads out there its soo wonderful to see something that sucks you in like an all powerful vortex

[squewer802]

I never got to see them live...

[ceeboyxx22]

@squewer802 my parents introduced me to this music when i was about 5 ish, childhood years, and i first saw them live when i was i think 11 or 12 when my parents took my little brother and me...they weren't afraid to introduce me to this music early on as you can see XD

[itwasonlytwoyearsago]

Trent is a genius

[brianzen007]

Reznor 4 Ever.

[malonemuert]

Chris Vrenna is great drummer

[seanthedonconsidine]

lol at the end when Trent puts the mic stand into the top keyboard, the guy gets off the platform like "ok Trent's smashing shit now, get out of the way"

[GrayFox50000]

Seeing Trent carry around the mic from 5:25 onwards, I can't help but be reminded of Pyramid Head from Silent Hill 2...

[Bunnyxdsingh]

Just enjoy this in slavery

[itwasonlytwoyearsago]

This is absolutely AMAZING !

[gothhellgal]

A lot of people are wishing they were that keyboard, if you know what I mean ;)

[WardenOfSmallville]

Holy fuck: 3:24 and you get the most insane, badass guitar solo I've -ever- heard in my sweet, unfulfilled(due to never having seen NiN live) life.

[MushroomBluex]

digitally remastered eh?

[samuelguk49]

how could they replace all broken keyboards so hurry before head like a hole began 0.o

[moshpittttt]

0 dislikes!

[rcfuguzi75]

Yes.... I believe he just broke me...

[Tutacanaras]

this needs to get reuploaded in 1080/720 :)

[KradProductions]

@Tutacanaras The source quality probably isn't good enough to allow it lossless. It would double the pixels and the conversion to YouTube would give it artifacts and screw with the colors. I wish they could have filmed this with RED cameras. 0.o

[Tutacanaras]

@KradProductions Surely this isnt how the hoster has the video file though? I presume when they uploaded it at 480p, that some form of compression went on? Either way I'd love to get this at the highest quality it could be/an official NIN remaster giving it the best release possible.

[KradProductions]

@Tutacanaras That's the thing -- the master file probably isn't any better. This was probably shot at about the same resolution.

[KradProductions]

@Tutacanaras That's the thing -- the master file probably isn't any better. This was probably shot at about the same resolution. YouTube definitely made this copy lossy during the conversion process, but I doubt the differences between this copy and the master are that significant.

[Tutacanaras]

@KradProductions I think the main thing here is that a lot of us would love to get a hold of that master file! :P

[mythkid1208]

Thumbs up if you think this is better than the studio version!

[TunaSoda]

@mythkid1208 Which studio version? ;)

[ghostflyable23]

@mythkid1208 i like both versions they alright

[breakdownification]

I LOVE HIM DESTROYING THE GODDAMN FCKNG KEYBOARD!

[JoeTube27]

Fckunig Amzanig

[MacDaddyPooty]

excellent keyboard playing from 2:30 to 3:20

[Staphylin]

@MacDaddyPooty I agree

[TheKillerZmile]

this is like a ILUMINATI members

[AllyDeLarge]

I love this video. More than life itself.

[komunista94]

ignorant morons naysaying his recent win at the golden globes and doubting his capacity to win an oscar for his score ought to have their heads put in between that poor keyboard and stage when trent was abusing it.

[TheDjsingleton]

3:24 is an awesome guitar solo or whatever

[4Esoteric4Dolphana4]

@TheDjsingleton 0:00-5:55 awesome song

[devilchick2098]

My friends dad asked me to learn this on piano. Wish me freakin luck -___-

[indiemiller]

Godly performance. The Self Destruct tour was so fucking legendary, so glad I got to see a few of their shows from back then.

[bwortham10]

It's no wonder that he won a Grammy for this. This song is amazing in itself, but there is no denying how great this performance was. The sound quality is awesome too. Very nice post!

You can definitely tell that he's pissed and about to fuck something up at 5:18. He picks up the mic stand and I'm thinking, "Yep, he's about to start breaking shit."

[jay112273]

trent totally ass raped that keyboard!!

[Haloman777]

Tickets: $135

Stage Equipment: $10,000

Seeing Trent reek havoc on stage: Priceless

[mythkid1208]

@Haloman777 LOL win!

[oidni1]

Beautiful chaos.

[Sublime333X]

Man! what is it about watching 5 dirty sweaty guys on a stage not giving a fuck about anything while playing awesome music that is just so dam cool ? This is what live shows should be all about !!!

[Sublime333X]

micropohone fail at 1:29 lol :]

[KarbiQ]

Finck fucking nailed that solo ! 100 times better than the album version !

[StinkyGreenBud]

I would like to thank my mother for taking me to this very very sick event. Thanks mom, best birthday gift a kid could ask for.

[imababyshark]

@StinkyGreenBud your mom took you to this show? i'm not sure which is sicker, you having such a sick mom or nine inch nails giving such a sick show.

[lacrahuntington]

@imababyshark LOL!!! that's the best mom in the world!!

[georgevmv]

i miss danny lohner.

[eyephuctyormom]

i remember watching this years ago,, kinda reminds me of the robot humping the washing machine in robot chicken

[Trixilver]

torrent of the show?

[7skib]

is the whole digitally remastered performance available to download somewhere?

[theNINrocker]

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 thru the cage of this endless routine

Just some flesh caught in this big broken machine

(one of my favourite songs of NIИ ) ~the best version ever~

[wootslap]

I would love to see the Head Like A Hole performance that follows this.

[bwortham10]

At 5:18, you know he is about to fuck something up BIG time.

[ApogyX]

that is the sound of insanity in my head. i hear that scream of the keyboard static whenever i feel the noise inside

[yourusernamehere2]

2:47, TRENT HAS SEX WITH THE KEYBOARD

[adudenamedrf]

if hell has a theme song, this is it.

[3third3eye3]

trent is fucking amazing live!!!

[joshxip]

5:03=brother hood at it's finest moment

[TheNineinchsnails]

this song is probably there most industrial song on a studio album

[MawoRinnGun]

this makes me feel totally out of mind

[andyginseng]

2:46 - 3:00 Trent Reznor is why I became a synth player.

[Loonykillaz]

this is very likely the best NIN performance ever.

As in if i were to be able to only see NIN one time ever.

It would have been this show.

[jrquilty]

Wooleys like, " hes got a mic stand stand, later guys" I thought about about doing a 720 HD version DVD or just 480p in the same digital remastered and making the show more tighter...then I thout of Interscope suing me lol plus theres already a tape of it surfaced i "think"

[bsdaemon666]

@jrquilty I'd love to see a 720p version of this - I've looked and still can't find it anywhere near that HQ.

[StinkyGreenBud]

fucking keyboards are trashed to fuck...

[royalnash]

trents performance makes me want to break equipment when I am at work. I guess you can say I sort of look up to him in way.

[royalnash]

look what that guy is doing to the keyboard at 3:00 its so cool. metalica is just as good of a band as nin is but i have to admit nine inch nails ripped this show.

[Roop433]

holy shit

[singularityforsure]

The best NIN days :D

[Plur307]

@singularityforsure

No way. The fragile wasn't even out yet...

[singularityforsure]

@Plur307

But pretty hate machine,broken,the downward spiral are great albums too :)

The fragile is for me their best album also,

I was talking about the live performances in those days,A darker trent,more industrial,more punk.

[Plur307]

@singularityforsure

I've seen them live several times and I really enjoyed seeing them during their last round of concerts in Chicago. They played everything from their oldest to newest material. Sure they were more raw and crazy back in the early 90's but I think they were able to perform studio quality work live in 2009. Look up the video of "Now I am nothing" by "chaonatic" here on youtube to see my point. I like the 2009 version way more than the 90's version.

[singularityforsure]

@Plur307

dude im portuguese i only see NIN one time :)

Take this in consideration :)

I know you talking about :)

Im stoned now and im listening ,the things i can say is that im feeling like the old trent,just that,i dont knwo if you canuderstand that,coz when listening evreryone have a different approach .

Take care,you are a good human

[Plur307]

@singularityforsure

I dig you! That's my favorite version of the day the world went away.

[Luqul]

hyperawesome

[theholygod]

God I love the dudududu-dunkdunk tune in the background of the chorus.

[bwebbh]

You have to wonder what Trent would do to a Keytar

[TheNineinchsnails]

80 thumbs up no downs.. god dat is beast

[subfusion01]

Grüße Fräulein, Sturm-Verbot-Führer, I saw east excrement in 8" behind the black television-group of Weis 1991, he was in the category of a quarter, seemed fresher he and felt his COMPACT DISC to him, to this time to this time it naturally never was more in the hostile public and nwa

[D4N13Ljoseph]

@subfusion01 wtf? please tell me this is cryptic, because if this isn't a code of some kind then I have no idea what to think

[subfusion01]

@D4N13Ljoseph Grüße Fräulein, Sturm-Verbot-Führer, black

[ims0deranged]

F*&#K YOU KEYBOARDS!!!

[h3r35j0nnY]

I think the reason they never played this again, is because they feel that they can't top it.

[demon00dmn]

who was he flipping off?

[bullsfan93]

does anybody know where i can find a mp3 of all the NIN stuff at woodstock 94

[sapparth26]

@bullsfan93 Theres a bootleg cd called "When the whip comes down" its pretty good quality, but still the audio quality of this blows it away!!!

[seldomme14]

@bullsfan93 go to listen to youtube.com and put the url of this video in there, then click high quality to get the quality ur getting from this video, its very satisfying

[panzerny]

nice keyboard rape

[tool619]

puncture my ears with the nails.

[OmenOfOdin]

Not true! Wave goodbye tour, Trent smashed the SHIT out of a guitar three songs into the set. After Wish, it's probably somewhere on youtube, check it out

[nastierpogo]

How come Trent doesn't got electrocuted with all that water over the keyboards

[sgtant]

because the stage isnt grounded

[252477514]

this quality is fucken amazing

[Drutsonomg]

briliant

[fashionshow1000]

I love how raw and awesome this performance is,

when they are just hitting the keyboards they still manage to sound amazing, I'd have killed to have been at this performance.

[hatfisc]

You would be surprised if you heard the raw version. The enhanced version sounds nothing like it really did.

[fashionshow1000]

I've seen the un enhanced version and yeah it is a lot raw than the enhanced version.

[moshpittttt]

is it better?

[fashionshow1000]

to be honest the sound quality is just a little more muffled and quiet, but thats about it, the enhanced sound is wayyyy better.

you can find the original on youtube as well.

[shiftyshorty12345678]

i love how the keyboard just didnt want to work at WOODSTOCK! trent destoyed the peace but man was it so so so epic!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Pierceher]

You know this has become an expression for me, everytime someone does something stupid, or someone is a fucking tool and opens his mouth.. I just say slave screams...

does not make sense for most of the people.. as they stare but it is so true it makes me feel good.

[basstard013]

The bass riff, The guitar solo, the keyboard humping... classic!
