[allremixedup01]

Noise making is fun. but don't blow your ear drum for first time noise making music like this. This sound off of ghost, by NIN. Music: Ghost 16.

[LinkinLover01]

I just found my new ringtone:)

[iplaysdrums]

good golly. it took me a second, but that's adrian belew!

[mrbusters]

@iplaysdrums Yep!

[brettonx]

oh sick... can i get the tabs?

[ninzor666]

you stole my nickname.

[plague1715]

It's not a synth mangler, it's a bit mangler.

[TheAntisilence]

Love the Devi Ever Synth Mangler you have there. ;)

[jh4124]

I'd give my left nut for all the gear in that room

[H75119847]

Hahahahahh!

[Burnedmyfrets]

lol

[tkpadilla]

hmmm... sounds alot like sonic youth's finished work.... : P

[lamecasuelas2]

omg this is the shit!!! adrian is the best!!!

[isabelmerlini]

I recognize this - It's actually Track 16 from Ghosts at 2:03 - you can hear it start at :33 in this clip

[Blade3327]

Think you're right. That sounds like one of the guitar tracks on 16 Ghosts II...

[ENTERSHIKARIJUSTIN]

dude, this sounds like AOL when sign in lol

thats noisy irratating sound lol

[vedoicani]

adrian belew rulez

[alebak]

Windows up and down the street are breaking and all the dogs are losing their minds.

[voices1]

needs more cowbell

[ENTERSHIKARIJUSTIN]

ha!!! omfg thats hilarious

[Shad0wz69]

im guessing it was for the ghosts album but i think they were just having fun here lol

[ALanSaidTrujillo]

It lacks of teh fripp factor.

[lamecasuelas2]

adrian rules!!!

[doctordrew31st]

i think i recognise a part of ghosts about 30 seconds in

[ninfreak18]

yea about 30 sec in was a part from ghosts XVI.

[pastryhat]

dude thats a lot of pedals.

[BMIvideos]

.... i feel kind'a sick

[claatu2]

I know some people who can actually control the noise and that's clever thing to do. These just improvise to me, and if that sounds good... well could be good for an album: now this is an ideology of making music that I can't feel to agree with.

[CharlesMans0m]

God, I love Adrian Belew!

[raisin505]

i wish they were my neighbours XD

[ColaberMilk]

Is nine inch Going To Start Making Harsh Noise Now?

[issofunky]

....start?

are you deaf!?!?!?

what about NIN's sonic palatte was EVER subtle?

[elusivEuphoria]

Word!

[ladynevermore]

sounds funky but i don't see why you would need a floor covering of fx pedals when you can have guitar rig... ...

[danielhl22]

why do you think?????? by the way adrian belew rocks very hard¡¡¡¡¡

[spitzndribble]

Great Destroyer much?

[Spenc2010]

Hehe. Adrian Belew doin' his thing.

I hope all you Nine Inch Nails know who he is...

[aladdinsane36]

I definitely know who he is... I have seen him every time he gets near where I live. I just wish he would tour with NIN.. since I am going to see them TONIGHT!!! WOO HOOO!!!! :)

[mahmmah]

Hey! what a great way to irritate your neighbours!!! lol!!

[marla1103]

It's obvious that they have many effects

[fashionista16]

who wouldn't wanna sample that noise?

[noizyme]

i wonder if the boys at Parker test their guitar in the same fashion...my guess is no.

[andyman2k7]

What are the effects pedal's they are using?

[eatthemoon13]

@andyman2k7 a Synth mangler im pretty damn shure, by devi ever dwarf craft makes them now.

[tanates777]

THE ART OF NOISE!!!

[Whyd0ub0ther]

I like that guitar. Not my favorite color though.

[kloakatriposa]

Adrian Belew es el puto amo

[roninchnails]

ahhh y vale acotar que es una sesión del Ghosts, era necesario que te lo dijera?

[roninchnails]

Para lennyk59: No tendra soul, pero creo que tu intelecto por el arte hecho sonido lo tienes bien adentro del culo hermano. Tambien soy Venezolano y los vengo escuchando desde el 92. No tengo por qué mencionar que los vi en el Poliedro. Hermano, no hagas comentarios sin saber, sin estudiar, el que está en la guitarra no es un loco. Por favor, ten cuidado con lo que dices y no dejes a mi pais como una ZONA IGNORANTE

[alankmkz]

@roninchnails Adrian es un genio al igual que Trent. Ya han estado juntos otras veces como en The Fragile y hacen un estupendo trabajo. Respecto a lo de si está loco Adrian, creo que si lo está. Esa locura lo lleva a colaborar con Trent. Son unos genios.

[lennyk59]

no se de que me hablas cuando dije que era una mierda me referia a el video ese que no se a donde quieren llegar este video me parece aburrido y puro ruido sin sentido y soy fan de NIN hasta los huesos por cierto tocaran en mi pais venezuela este 8 de octubre

[sadrys]

i agree, Adrian Belew is one of the best performers ever!, Along with NIN, they RULE!!!

[SpaceJesusCries]

Holy shit! It's Adrian mother fucking Belew being awesome. He needs to play with them live at some point.

[sexistential]

porn for musical gearheads

[Redzombie13]

Adrian Belew is a badass:p!!! I can only wish that my favorite metal band Meshuggah can hook up their custom-made 8 string Ibanez and Nevborn guitars to those effect pedals and processors that Nine Inch Nails have when putting together "Ghosts, Vol. I-IV" and "The Slip".

[pyroseed13]

Adrian Belew = genius.

[IAmTheMan217]

it sounds like Just Like You Imagined to me

[rebisdead]

oh to that for a career :)

[d4dan]

I just realize that that guitar part is on disk one of the ghosts album. I recognized the bit. I've posted a video of the track I'm talking about as a response.

[djh3mp]

Holy poop

[klauxxx1978]

mero NOISEEEEEEEEEE

los esperamos en KOLOMBIA ESTE 12 DE OCTUBRE

NIN

[tmos53]

That was fuckin' awesome!

[Seaoftea]

It sounds like a chainsaw cutting off a donkeys balls.

[lennyk59]

que vaina tan mala deberia darles pena

[lennyk59]

jajajaajajaja vayanse a la mierda ya NIN tiene a sus locos completos ese video me parece pura mierda vayan a jugar con sus hot wheels

[perfectdrug92]

y tu k mierda escuchas??

reggeaton?

[lennyk59]

jajajajaja no escucho reggeton pero eso me parece una mierda no tiene soul es una copia aburrida de ruido imitando disculpa pero eso me parece una mierda

[ShortyoneHR]

puedes verlo asi...yo tampoco soy muy fanatico de nin pero realmente me gusta su filosofia, y sea lo que sea es mucho mas original que poner un tema de electro en ibiza, su musica es unica e incasillable

[ravyniskool]

Having fun with those noises? ^_^

[TheSleepingVillage]

oh what it is to have that much money... if i had the cash they earned id make my own recording studio.. have 2 rooms with 0 natural reverb and 1 massive warehouse sized room for tones of reverb... + all of the FX pedals i could get my hands on, all the experimental instruments, guitar, basses, drums, classical instruments god.. i could keep on going..

[RICECAKEGOESWHEE]

i'd kill to have that many effects to play with

[sazerac64]

ummm.. that's video of Adrian Belew (one of the greatest guitarists EVER) kickin' it EXPERIMENTAL style in the studio with Alan Moulder for the Ghosts recordings.

[mackin26]

Cool. I will certainly be checking him out! Thanks.

[mackin26]

What the fuckin fuck fuck did that have to do with NIN?

[zinkvideo]

Hurray for the excessive use of profanity!

[Y34RZ3R0iscoming]

HURRY!

[zinkvideo]

Ouch my ears

[f1sk8mm]

tom morello been doin that shit for years with a wah, a whammy, and some feedback

[Troubleinabubble]

thats adrian belew.... been doing that for faaaaar longer than morello

[ElWeasle]

Thank you.

[f1sk8mm]

well i be damed if that aint a synth mangler and a wah ofcourse you got to have teh wah

[tkpadilla]

Some call this progress... some call this beginning guitar lessons.

[Troubleinabubble]

if one of my students did that at their first guitar lesson i would call the pope and tell him i had satan in my bassment

[tkpadilla]

Is this a fucking joke or what? It's amazing the shit you can pull out off your ass and call it art. Ghosts was neat but this bit is nowhere on it.

[jerjer12381]

I just had a seizure, i hope you all are happy

[JustusDestruction]

It's amazing what kind of shit you can do with a guitar "nowadays"

[Pyrofries]

More like amazing what you can do when you stack tons and tons and tons of distortion, Hahahaha

[netofbeing001]

Adrian!!!!!!

[Mokurentate]

tinnitus!

[Gelli18]

one of those looks like a synth mangler guitar effect, very cool

[graphiteplacenta]

hey what kind of effect is this guy using?

way interesting..

is it a sonic decimator?

[Donedeal11]

parker guitars suck

[81beast81]

you suck.

[dls182]

seconded

[drboose]

right between 6 and 7 seconds is killer. I'm gonna steal that.

oO

[toooommyyyy]

adrian is getting really older but he's always the best

[danikorn89]

it sounds so cool!

god, every band should make their official youtube account! it would be awesome as nin!!

[lingojac]

i love 16 Ghosts II!

[kkkillerz]

Sounds like a construction site in there

[edgecrusher7]

classic bit of belew and trent genius

[cookiesandslipknot]

oh bloody hell lol

[lhtd]

I love the sneak peak to see all the material you work with.

[traci229]

the fact that I actually sat thru this whole piece is a testement to the love and dedication I have for all things NIN.

Now I need to go stuff some cotton in my ears to stop the bleeding.

[charlybear98]

my ears are bleeding but I still love you trent lol!!

[ONEandONLYdanastar]

aua my ears

[sazerac64]

How many decades has Adrian Belew been making great musicians greater? What, 3? 4 decades? I don't know, but I'm greatful for every last second of it. Go, Adrian!

[zeedog14]

if you guys wanna know what song this is if you guys don't know it it's 16 Ghosts II that their playing!

[Rockstafar]

oh the joys of using effects to make wierd noises

[warlockboyburns]

sounds like s painful dump

[metalcore929]

That's Adrian Belew right?

[ConvexSpade]

Yup

[lingojac]

i still have yet to buy Ghosts, man i dont know what to make of it yet, which makes me even more eager to hear it : )

[traumachicken]

It's not hair!

It's a headfone!

[perfectdrug39]

lol @ the people who thought that was trent.

[ninstarnin]

Adrian is it??

[sogrunge]

MISFITidea hit it right on the button... Ghosts 16 is where these noises come into play!

[MISFITidea]

duh

its not a sound test

its not a rehearsal

its not trent

this is actually the recording of a song, or at least, a part of a song: ghosts 16

its adrian belew and alan moulder

[w00ts0rbet]

lol I guess Trent do miss the annoying dial-up connection noise

[impaledfaerie]

man you guys are idiots. it's a sound test.

[MageMayu]

Trent seems to be bopping his head to a click track and they're both wearing headphones, so I would say they're recording a take.

I'm sure I heard a few seconds of this on one of the Ghost tracks, but more in the background.

[korndawg879]

except trent is nowhere to be found in this vid...

[ahrimansong]

Fantastic, thanks for getting so experimental guys. I was hoping something like this would happen with I heard about Ghosts, and it live up to my expectations and more. Very very glad to hear the direction the music is taking and I couldn't be more impressed. Keep up the great work!

[timothyburgesslive]

lol do you really think that those sounds are gonna resemble a guitar in any way after theyre done with them? you know there gonna cut them up and tweak them into something really cool. all sounds have potential, you just have to put the right spin on it.

[yomomtubes]

high?

[Skibble5150]

Wow. I have never heard anythign so shit in my life. Now I know why your pedals are selling for $35!

[chicomelmazza]

what a crap!!!

[badrubberduckie]

I thought that was Belew. He played the guitars on Mr.Self Destruct on Downward Spiral too..

[nectarguru]

FUCK yea, I didn't know Belew was involved with Ghosts

[rdomain]

Belew Rocks!! Long live Belew!!

[koklich]

That is an Adrian Belew signature model Fly, which is probably the sickest most versatile axe ever created. Besides the usual Fly goodies like the carbon fibre reinforced body, carbon fibre fingerboard... this one features RMC piezos, 13pin midi output, sustainiac pickup in the neck position and a Line 6 Variax guitar`s guts.

So start saving kids...

[franzfranz]

If asked to, can it go to 11?

[Electric1Shadow5]

if you ask nicely

[bluntedtrauma]

Im sorry for saying that you were not you outside of the Tool/King crimson show in Portland back in 2001. I Did not realize I was speaking to the guitar god Adrian Belew, damn I wish I had a pen...

[electrostrike]

00.29 onwards cool sound

[AmbientGuitarSounds]

That's some crazy sounds! :)

[jonny6767]

belew, you are a GOD!!!!!!!!

god bless you, and all your zappa/bowie days.

and now nine inch nails....

[gothangel99]

i'm confused

[KhaleDemos]

I wonder what they're tryin' teh do...

[cryvsspy]

it's gettin harder and harder to create original sounding sounds

[Redzombie13]

adrian belew is fuckin' awesome!!! he was responsible for that distressful droned out gutiar textured sound from "mr. self destruct"...

[facefantome]

this clip reminds me a friend of mine

[LifesEyesFilms]

Wow! That looked like Adrian, and one of the most expensive guitars in the world.

"So happy together----"

[mobilezonetv]

Are you on crack? You can buy a Parker Fly in any corner, although they're excellent axes.

[LifesEyesFilms]

Sorry, I realize it's a Fly, but I thought it was a bronze edition, which go for nearly $4,000 around here. A little rich for my blood.

[jollirott]

I do Loves me some musical experimentation.

[TomIsTehOwnageLolz]

man those are some awesome effects

[0pyders]

I know that sounded like crap but that was awesome!!

[cirqueduprick]

i dig the tone.

[matttguitar]

adrian belew rlz

[chronogenesis]

wow this is what I like to see.

Trent Reznor was the person who inspired me to be a musicial.

[iSOBigD]

Ok but who inspired you to be a musician?! :D

[mrdavidaaron]

GIMME THE COKE GUYS!!!!!!!!!

[SonicRage0]

Trent,

we are amazed by your talent.

We would like to invite you to listen to our tracks at Myspace.

( SonicRage09 )

Give it a try and you´ll be surprised.

Warm regards,

SR.

[PrintC]

thats really lame

[jonnypatrick145]

devi ever pedals f*#@ing rule! the ghosts stuff was awesome too. thats the bit mangler to all the musicians out there.

[birdgirl1968]

That's Adrian Belew! :)

[thegrudge]

yup!

[armord2tehcore]

Its a Devi Ever Bitmangler

[crunchandbones]

dude fucking feedbacker or something. Didnt Boss release that?

[paulAEden]

thats a sick petal whatever it does.

[sloth2mantis2]

I need to know what this seceret project is. Belew is the man!

[kareeji]

...wow

ghosts dot nin dot com

not news

[SFLogicNinja]

Adrian! Is that YOU?!?!

[drumjunkie10]

don't respond to those typical kids who say noise isn't music. it's a waste of your time and they will never get it. It's like trying to convince someone Monk doesn't play out of tune.

[gwogwo123123]

monk play out oftune

[gwogwo123123]

im NOT gay

[Matiaz91]

check 16 ghosts II (the track)

its in there

such a beautiful way to mix noise with music

[gwogwo123123]

umm sory to say but that just noise...not real music!

[pulsedemon]

Sorry to say this but you aren't the ultimate authority on what constitutes as noise or music.

[gwogwo123123]

yes iam

[gwogwo123123]

im NOT gay
