nine inch nails - March Of The Pigs

[GlovesGloves]

trent was so fucking hot back then

[bob04957642582]

the reason is he is VERY high on heroine bud, the whole CD he did (downward spiral) he was on it lol and it's his best album at that.

[1337Ravage]

@bob04957642582 Trent didn't do heroin. he did cocaine.

[bob04957642582]

naw man look it up trent in this CD was doing loads of it, he overdosed a couple times and was rushed to the hospital, then he quit.

[coreyhunley1147]

he did coke, heroin and drank alot.

[JillDlana]

love this song one of my faves, remember moshing my a@@ off during his shows.

[SuperArchangelus]

Dude Of all the chicks I've ever seen on MTV, he is the biggest diva of them all in that video.

[visioncommission]

bad quality sound but this song is so damn great-this whole album...well nin are genius-

[kitcar82]

Pure adrenaline rush

[09011994]

and oh my god, this is my favorite drum beat of any song

[09011994]

lol, with all do respect to trent reznor and his genius creativity, hes all over the place in this video, lol

[GovmentTookMaBaby]

I douche shine my pants.

[falling325]

NO WORDS

[iwazarutortellini]

fucking beast of a video.

[isabella33100]

The Bail OUT song!!!!! who was the architect?

[michmeister2]

trash metal? i think its alternative...

[Imrez]

What is Alternative? Never understood the meaning of that. I think in the US everything that isn't conventional radio rock or pop is called alternative. Idiotic... it describes NOTHING.

And I would say too that NIN is Industrial Rock, f*ck alternative.

[hellchild65]

alternative is a genre, like the one nirvana smashing pumpkins and janes addiction belong to. its also a term used to describe types of music that isnt like the typical rock, or in some cases metal, that people heard in decades previous to the 90's

[Imrez]

I know but it's a really bad genre name. It's categorizing gone wrong... "alternative" is way too wide if you ask me, it could be anything. It's like, Nine Inch Nails plays really heavy rock with metal and industrial influences in it. Let's just call it Alternative... <-- NO. Get my point?

[hellchild65]

well, NIN is more industrial then rock or metal, especially their 80's, and 90's material. also its not too bad if you think of it, its like if you take alice cooper david bowie and pink floyd and simply put them in the "rock" category. sure they are different types of rock but they are still rock overall.

[camdawg7]

@Imrez: If you get too genre crazy then every single band could have their own genre name, that's why we have like 10 major genres. The rest of the genres are for picky little sh**s.  But I do agree with you, the genre is a bit of an "other" , but you have to have that categorization somewhere.

[tprime999]

"SHOVE IT UP INSIDE, SURPRISE!" What could that mean?lol

[pechelas]

this is like industrial metal ain't it??

well it sounds like soo ^^

[6Ott7]

It took me 3 years to play this flawlessly on the drums.

[xxxUnseenSoulxxx]

this kids is what we call THRASH METAL :D YAYAAAAAAAAAAAY

[CKendlesspain222]

@ xxxUnseenSoulxxx: HAHAHA, thrash metal? You've got to be kidding me.

[xxxUnseenSoulxxx]

@CKendlesspain222 I'm new to rock/metal :'(

SHUTUP

[masterbass666]

nice  :)

[ADAJ55]

wow... this is a weird song!

[ecallaw2k8]

this is in 29:8 meter

most complex time sig in hit music history?

[Pingu616]

Really? I know nothing about time signatures so forgive me for that haha. The beat is what lures people to the song though I think, its the first thing you hear and it sticks with you. Its unique.

[zgates]

Well... really you'd say it's three measures of 3/4 and then one of 4/4, rather than calling it one huge measure of 29/8.

But yes, it IS the most complex time in any song to get significant airplay. :)

[Undertakerfn4life]

this was like the ultimate music video to ever watch and listen to when i was in middle school

[boomselekta1]

FUCKING COOL

[ninjaturtlepie3]

he stopped touring

AND I FUCKING MISSED HIM IN MY TOWN LAST YEAR

FFUUUUUUU-

[poshi12]

[rompekraneoz]

[poshi12]

[narutoabridgedfan18]

[poshi12]

oh.ok thanks

[Alicevampywuv]

[danielferreira666]

best gig on paredes de coura last summer here in portugal. best song of the gig

[tylerslespaul392]

im glad trent is out of his leather-and-fishnets phase

[xxtiaan]

@tylerslespaul392  I dunno hes kinda dishy, the look the launched a 1000goths...

[fashionshow1000]

@tylerslespaul392 he still actually wears leather trousers, if you watch new live video's he's wearing a pair of red leather's in a few of them aha.

I'm glad he's past the goth kind of stage though too.

[BIKERJAKE74]

I think I still have bruises from being in the mosh pit at the Fair Park coliseum here in Dallas. That was back in 1994 or 95. It was a fucking massacre.

[SplatterdaySaints]

fuck yeah i missed the jacksonville show thats when manson got arrested for the dildo i was fuckin 12 so i couldnt get the money on my own couldve went if daddy wasnt working that night

[ipfrealy]

lol this video was on beavis and butthead.

[paintballknight12]

Ya beavis farts during the pause....great timing....that sticks out in my head too

[SplatterdaySaints]

I do shine my pants uh huh huh heh heh heh you said douche heh heh heh

[Jigabob28]

amazing song live.

[Koolk951]

This is my favorite song by them.

[smallfryordie]

Maybe crack but not weed

[smallfryordie]

@abbaArchive I'm okay with weed and drugs and stuff but don't do them when you are trying to prove a point

[smallfryordie]

Fill us all then.

[smallfryordie]

How are NIN ripping off the beatles they sound nothing alike. Besides, the beatles are a hippy band.

[xplodestudio]

i agree with the first part but the beatles are like the origins of most music

[jodysoldman]

crazy how much he looked like Michael Jackson in this video

[Kamboshin]

HAHA oh wow

[ny5280]

a rip off of the beatles? what the hell are you talking about,lol

[Looterster]

i love how he talks to some random chick like he doesnt give a shit hes singing a song then barley gets his mic back. awesome

[JesusTerminator]

Waait wait wait look at 2:07 he's scratching his balls

[LIBERTINEPARANOIC]

lol

[JesusTerminator]

Drugs make a lot of things sound better, namely Trent. But if he continued, he probable wouldn't be alive right now.

[theperiodband]

Love this song. The vid is cool too. The audio sounds too compressed, tho...

[LIBERTINEPARANOIC]

its hard to choose one album

pretty hate machine

broken

the downward spiral

the fragile

with teeth

year zero

master pieces....but i think i choose the fragile or the downward spiral

(the slip and ghost dont like to me)

[rabbit605]

broken

[ny5280]

Your right its hard to choose one album there all very very good, but i think The Slip is very good, the only album i dont own is Ghost..

[GHOSTakaOzz]

with teeth is my favorite I love ONLY

[LeodimeII]

Oh come on dude. With Teeth was alright but you need to hear Broken or Pretty Hate Machine or The Downward Spiral. They're all so much better.

[nineinchnail6794]

@LeodimeII

the fragile is the BEST tho. :)

[haithamseelawi]

The downward spiral is the ultimate album ever! All of the other NIN albums kick ass as well!

[johoraka]

Haha, he has a mic bitch.

[Boowey116]

lol what is this? looks like thier all high

[minaroar]

who here thinks Closer (the single) didn't sell The Downward Spiral well, not that Closer is bad song but Spiral, the whole record is AMAZING. I didn't buy Spiral back when it first came out because I wouldn't buy a song based on a dance track, you feel me?

[DezertRacer7103]

God what the fuck happened to them, they used to be so good, so raw......COME BACK OLD TRENT!!!!

[minaroar]

creativity doesn't last sweetie, it sucks, all things cool end up asinine (spell check)

[GHOSTakaOzz]

i will make sure it lasts

[Dilly250515]

This was the lineup, Trent, Robin, Chris, and Danny. Saw them back in the day at several concerts, and though Trent was the band (i.e. writer, composer, et al), this lineup was Nine Inch Nails at their best and most furious

[nsaman77]

i wish i knew more about this

[pvn506]

great great great! I wish he would hit me!

[MaryamMisery]

LOL WTF .

[gottagetaway52]

what the hell?

[jsctthll]

ths antburn

[jsctthll]

step up imside

[betyoucantreadthis]

Im quite convinced that stumbling on this cods-wallop has been the single most shittest thing thats ever happened to me. What an absolute disaster.

Im really pissed off.

[captaindourg]

its called art. he is articulating the song.

if you dont like it, why are you here?

do you think anyone here cares about your opinion on the matter? or are you just trying to start crap?

[musikfanize]

what they say?

[minaroar]

this vid is DOPE!

[Krassnitschko]

hellyeah  :p

[spicyMcHAGGIS9green]

Robin Fink is the coolest.

[prod1gy3000]

Reznor always possessed such uncanny insight. He had such a great ability to look at the big picture whether it was culture, sex, politics or whatever.

When he was asked about this song in a '94 interview:

"The point I was trying to make was that in America when we attain a certain level of success, its always surprising to see all the legions of people around who start fucking with you, hoping that you'll fuck up, ripping you off, and trying to use you to a capacity."

[YetAnthony]

Reznor rocks.

[JesusTerminator]

funny thing they don't have a bassline during the bridge

[jet33177]

Anybody remember what Beavis said right after they finished?

"Thank you very much, we're Nine Inch Nails!"

[captaindourg]

lmao, i loved it when he threw the mic in a random direction at 2:11 and then like tripped over it to illustrate the song. i love how he does his stuff, so genuine and articulate.

[nitch543]

lol trent broke the first mic threw the second mic and GODSMACKED the last one he also attacked the bass and shook the piano and i lold so hard when the lady came up u could tell he wasn't listening and the people kept giving him mics that huy is one hell of a high flyer...

[TheLexyboy]

i saw NiN live during the "pretty hate machine" tour and he did the same onstage and hit a roadie. The roadies kicked the shit out of him after the gig!

[666Brokenthoughts999]

@TheLexyboy its saddening but.. LMAO!

[foodsio]

take that, roadie!

[BrothelSprout420]

I love the way NIN uses their Bass

[efexor01]

He's the closest thing to Jesus we'll ever get;)

[efexor01]

I think this song and Trent are fucking awesome. Whether he was on some substance or just natural high, which I would be if I were him, not only would I be playing with myself all day but I would be all over the place having fun with my band. Who gives a flying fuck if he was high?

[JesusTerminator]

God knows what the hell is going through his mind but he probably WAS high.

[ladonvance]

If hes high... i like high hes me rockstar that way lol

[kbernstrom]

trent prolly was high.

so?

good job, trent. this song/video rules.

[Bandwhorefreak]

Agreed.

Though, Curiously, I would like to see what he does while high. That might be awesome.

[7777dmith7777]

It is funny how he went through like 5 mics

[plmqas]

I bet that even his high is pretend

[purplepurplesloth]

This is the best music video of the 90's. Love it. Ps who cares if Trent was high when this song was done.

[molestyourself123]

haha never gets old

i think in this song the pigs refer to his fans and how they love it when he goes mental, puts his heart and soul into it on stage and basicley breaks down because its great entertainment

but meh just an interpretation

insane video

dig the "i really dont give a fuck im so high im gonna throw my mic around and shit" attitude

[nineinchnails84]

Trent was high when this video was made

[midinerd]

let alone every other phase of its conception... hehe what's new. Wonder what he was high on, though, cuz I never see him smoking I don't think....

[spicyMcHAGGIS9green]

Cocain.

[Hellraiser01991]

And that's what makes it awesome.

[applenatormusic]

wheres the bass coming from?

[plmqas]

from the playback like the rest

[oneadamtwelve30]

NIN is so fucking bad ass..I aint Gay but I am Gay for Trent..haaaaa

[chrisissince1985]

NiN just trashes everything then the roadies go clean up. LOL

[chrisissince1985]

Classic NIN

[Ether929]

I love how he just throws the mike everytime.....lmao!!!

[killerkai14]

they used this song to torture prisoners in guantanamo bay

[hellspawn781]

That fucking pisses me off!

[drapdv]

Pissed off Trent, too

[fiendorgyfetisha]

really? how do u know that?

[FuriousPixel]

really what did they do?

[nadiacalat]

right.

and trent was really angry about it...

[midinerd]

You are lying, don't say shit like this unless you have actual proof. So far I'm seeing none. Dropping names doesn't mean shit, get some evidence.

[angst242]

this owns! NIN in there prime!

[patzivota22]

my thoughts exactly

[djmom2]

Raw, emotional display.

[Colunga210]

such a great video.

and back when trent's voice was basically flawless.

[PiratePenguin]

His voice is still great lol

I saw him live on the NINJA tour and he performed this song

It was amazing, if amazing is even strong enough a word for it

[Muppio]

This really is the sound of chaos!

I love it.

[UNUSERNAME666]

Trent grew up in Pa.

[ColorsBright]

HEY! Get your hands off his keyboard butthole! haha that always makes me laugh.

[youTrup]

what are this chaotic sounds and loops? should i consider them as a composition?....music?....

[aristophron]

Both the sense and content of music are under constant evolution, pal... What your ears have the honor to listen to, is a specimen of progressive electro-rock. I realize that your ears are ''virgin'', so try to approach it rather as a contemporary emotional expression than as a mozartean harmonic tune.

[youTrup]

i like your definition/explanation,man. l: ]

well. maybe i'm too old for this kind of progressive rock.

my "virgin" ears think that music is what bands like radiohead,mew,muse,blocparty,s­trokes or vines do... where u can hear clearly bass and guitars and drums playing some melodic stuff.... and the keyboard too.

[youTrup]

what are you talking about?

[youTrup]

i am trying. doing my best to learn english language.

You can be my teacher,correct my mistakes...

...some people seem to have understood my "clusterfuck of meaningless shapes and lines" and they gave me +1 for it.

what languages do you know apart from english?

[Turminak]

Thanks for affirming my suspicion. I feel better now.

(I see no plus)

[Kliklaklut]

Some native english speakers are so arrogant... They think there are only english speakers on earth :-)

Youtrup, I advise you to not continue to speak with such people, you are loosing your time ;-)

Greetings from Czech rep by a French

[youTrup]

Thank you! : D

[Squidza2k6]

lol, bad english.

amazing song btw, i fucking love NIN.

[MrOpheliac]

i love NIN, and i love screamo, but NIN is better of screamo bands ;' )

[chrisissince1985]

NIN is not screamo

[Ihuffglue91]

ugh trent is so mother fucking sexy. I want to live in his mental breakdown

[zerogecko]

Trent used to live on my wall :)

[kolla123]

Doesn't it make you feel better?

[pegbikeuse]

Brilliant!!!! (sighs....)

[4730478021]

555 always new mic

[erbykaos]

[chrismusic13]

[Twistedmihailo]

/sarcasm

[deyvidcapitano22]

[JulianTrick]

Vamos Cerdos!!

[SpecialProductions]

[johndoebob69]

Trent could have retired years ago, if he had all of that microphone and keyboard money back.

[nodejealniniogritar]

terrible esta cancion!!!

[stonerman000]

[monkeyturdman7]

Now I finally know where Josh dies gets his fashion sense from.

[n305]

[Ministry85]

TWIGGY

[makeithappenyeah]

[makeithappenyeah]

woops the below comment was to Ministry85

anyway, it's Robin Finck...i know this because i used to have a major thing for him in this video when i was about 13.
