NIN - Ruiner

[TheSensitiveBuffalo]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT. This is gold.

[somethingguy912]

Trent deserves better video quality...

[MarkAllen9]

Trent. Thank you for showing me what real music is.

[rayver12ftw]

sex music ^_^

[travz21]

240p? This is one of the best songs of all-time. Come on.

[patrickcummins79]

@MrSecretPeter haha, yea i got you, thats mad funny

[romansoldierdude]

@Midnight111x Dude, YES. Look up "Ruiner (Version)". Agh it's so friggin' awesome.

(Also, Imperative Reaction's cover of this song isn't bad. Slightly more on the electronic side).

[Huron9999]

This is for that special someone, the one you thought you could trust, the one you would do anything for, the one that fucked you over and left you in such a mess.

[krrplunk77]

So glad I was a teenager when this was released, it was the prefect soundtrack for my angst ridden state, my parents still cringe when I mention this song, lol!

[kindasortaplayguitar]

@MrSecretPeter MONSTER SMASH!!!AAGHHHGHHGHGHGHGGHG!!! yeah, good song to start the day=D

[MajickDemoniack]

@MrSecretPeter Not At All.

[aldokush]

why is it when i hear this song and think of my dick

[xxgrungegoddxx]

fuck this song makes me crazy, its amazing

[threeye8finger]

That solo is the like the devil making sweet, glorious fuck!

[paulakaiser]

this song is fuckin HOOOOTT

[epicureus314159]

great deal of distortion no insult intended

[CasualBeliever]

@epicureus314159

240p, what did you expect?

[Selmz2010]

@CasualBeliever

360p.

[CasualBeliever]

@Selmz2010

360p? Not here. For what it's worth, which is less than the time to type this.

[epicureus314159]

you could study computer science at NAU or start your own gothic band

[epicureus314159]

DOWNWARD SPIRAL IS THE WORLD. DO YOUR BEST THE FIRST TIME! DONT FUCK UP! AND YOU STILL DIE! HA HA HA! THAT IS SHEER MADNESS!!

[worldofdraculas]

My favorite Tool album is Melon Collie and the Infinite Sadness.

[mitzjob]

love the Roman horn chorus...worthy of a chariot race

[videorage]

The downward spiral is a work of genius. END.

[gravitybongo]

@MrBatemanpatrick You said you're drinking beer, alot of people who are "allergic to alcohol" are actually allergic to the yeast and stuff in beer. Try switching to vodka or something that's more pure alcohol. lol i sound like such a pusher haha just give it up if it's causing you too much trouble ;-)

[saucerwasp]

this song brings out the s&m in me

[jigsown]

Synth part is amazing. The reason I love this song.

[AdmiralDonuts]

Man, I can't sleep for like 2 days after having heard that guitar solo.

[mitzjob]

One of my favorite Trent songs...Love the Roman fanfare horns...and by-the-way...I like Kesha...She's a crack-up...Take her seriously at yer own risk...

[EternalWolf86]

I havent heard this song in maybe ten years. I bought this CD when I first started dating my ex and gave it to her pretty quickly as a gift, though I didnt really want to because I loved the CD. What followed was years that changed my life because of her and I havent went back to any of NIN songs since tonight. Cant believe I knew every moment of this song, I must have listened to it a lot in that short time span that I owned it. Fucking awesome song.

[MartyrofCake]

NIN's best song.

[WW3seeker]

THIS IS THE BEST S0NG IN THE UNIVERSE, IM DEAD FUCKING 100% SURE ABOUT IT !!!

[TheEliteclown]

I Totally agree, Tool is great music!!

[lansing1299]

@TheEliteclown tool????? are you a dumb ass ... cause the song is ruiner and the artist is trent reznor from nin... nothing about that says tool!

[schmidt969]

-Nothing can stop me now!! >8]

Thanks Trent!

[Jaffainchains]

Take ur fecking dislikes and ram them up ur arse!

[84dariustwin]

this song is epic. been a long time nin fan. trents the man.

[Szamot97]

Much better than the rest of  "Downward Spiral".

[mrfudgeyhead]

@Szamot97

You clearly haven't heard the rest of "The Downward Spiral".

[Szamot97]

@mrfudgeyhead I did :D But, you know, I am not the great NIN fan, most of their music is too electronic for me :D

[iPrankable]

@Szamot97 um hello, Piggy & Closer?

Much better? this song is fucking awesome

[Abryzof423]

when i was in high school jamming this i would freak people out by screaming the lyrics and cause a general havoc then outta no where just calm down at the guitar solo only to soon start freaking out again at the crunchy glass sounds. i soon was kicked out of school

[Slide2671]

@Abryzof423 Worth it, lol

[Khyrid]

This song sounds like your punching through everybody into pieces.

[Bastard471]

@Khyrid hi!

[ClamCrunchy]

Good song to run a treadmill to.

[Dyslexic17Cow]

The fucking guitar at 2:50 is haunting. Fucking love it.

[koryan]

why are all these NIN songs uploaded in 240p? horrible quality...

[USMartyrMachine119]

@koryan Gives it that dirty, nasty, whorsih feeling... lmao idk.

[NightmareGanon]

Best song where the chorus is a tribute to the vocalist's penis.

[antichristian74]

@NightmareGanon better than "part of me" by tool?

[Psiberzerker]

@NightmareGanon Ok, I always called it the Power-Assertive anthem, but  close enough.

[destroysubgenres]

@NightmareGanon Tool Maynard's dick?

[bluckagungo]

This is what Rebecca Black secretly listens to on Friday

[tgd02]

FUCKING GODLY REZNOR!!!

[maxxim666leviathan]

obvious troll is obvious



[AppleShrapnel]

Love the general concept of the lyric "revenge of the innocent"... just thinking about it makes me... makes me... *at a loss for words, the Apple begins flailing his arms about randomly, thrashing his desk... he seems overwhelmed.*

[romansoldierdude]

@AppleShrapnel Emmmm... it's actually "the raping of the innocent". Sorry to ruin your... flailing.

"The Ruiner's got a lot to prove, he's got nothing to lose, and now he made you believe... the Ruiner's your only friend, well he's the living end to the cattle he deceives, the raping of the innocent, you know the Ruiner ruins everything he sees, now the only pure thing left in my fucking world is wearing your disease!". Yeah...

[AppleShrapnel]

@romansoldierdude *Ceases flailing* Wha-? D: Stupid people submitting incorrect lyrics on the internet makes me... makes me... *at a loss for words, the Apple begins flailing his arms about randomly, thrashing his desk... he seems overwhelmed... again.*

[romansoldierdude]

@AppleShrapnel You can generally tell by if the lyrics have no capital letters or if they use chatspeak instead of normal people words. ^_^

*bites into an apple*

[demithepyro]

This is a cover of a Beiber song, right? I think the original is better :/

[cheetos2579]

@demithepyro

[vycon88]

@demithepyro what are you 12? lol beiber wasnt even born i dont think when this album was released :P but yea i know your fucking around but still horrible joke make sense not trying to put hate into this video but come on i gotta troll idiots

[8L4SPH3R10N18755]

Would everyone shut up about Rebecca Black

[TheNightsMoon]

OMFG. I swear, wtf is wrong with youtube? Rebecca black is in the reccomended videos!?!?!?!?!?!?

[ghostfaced1]

@TheNightsMoon lol yeah .....odd very odd

[TheNightsMoon]

@ghostfaced1 How can they even be associated with eachother?

[evanisgay11]

in the recommended box it says "Rebecca Black - Friday (OFFICIAL VIDEO)"

if youtube were i person i would smash their testicles with a sledgehammer and then stick said testicles into a sock and beat youtube to death with its own testies.

FUCK YOU

[xkillacam1993]

@evanisgay11 Amen.. that video needs to go DITF already..

[evanisgay11]

@xkillacam1993 ikr?

[evanisgay11]

@xkillacam1993 ikr? wtf is a band like NIN being associated with rebecca balck?

i have lost all hope in humanity -__-

[RoxorsUrSoxors]

@lovemeordie83 Belive it or not, there are a handful of people who like it.

[accessandamplify]

nothing can hurt me, nothing can stop me...

*stops*

so kewwwwlz

[drugsnbeer]

This song has a hip-hop beat, a metal chorus, and a Pink Floyd guitar solo. Quite a mix!

[accessandamplify]

@drugsnbeer

add some drugs and beers and your good to go.

[Terfew]

Why the hell is rebecca black in the side bar?

[RoxorsUrSoxors]

@Terfew She is the Ruiner, selling her shit to her flies.

[lovemeordie83]

@RoxorsUrSoxors Ironically, she didn't manifest in anything, because no one likes the song...AHHH! :D

[Nightshroud99]

bitchin song

[Guafi777]

isnt it ironic how the last line to this song is " nothing can stop- "?

[icamanythingz]

@Guafi777 maybe they tryin to tell you somtin @_@

[preachermuaddib]

@Guafi777 Not if you use the dictionary defination of ironic.

[EarendirSylvan]

@Guafi777 notice how even the ending part of the song is well made by Reznor - usually songs end up with fadeout, the accented sound or something like that. Here yuo have the cut, but it can be "nothing can stop-" or "nothing can. stop." :) first impression is about how something can actually stop "the unstoppable", like the cut in this song - second is about how stopping isn't really the "victory" of a stopper but well-prepared tryumph of "the stopped". notabene: same verse. brilliant song.

[KadathII]

Reznor is good at turning his emotions into energy, instead of just whining at a high volume.

[OneNationUnderMe]

anyone listen to "VTG" they fucking bit hard off NIN, HELL AND LADY GAGA

[srimecrime]

0:49 with headphones blows my mind every time.

[Cardien18]

@srimecrime oh yes, the best part

[lovemeordie83]

@srimecrime I know, right? Also, 3:41 is EPIC. Just...EPIC.

[wikiporno2]

I love the instrumentals, but the lyrics are total emo faggotry.

[uncleadolf]

@wikiporno2 yeah...how dare an artist sing about his emotions...its not like john lennon had lyrics of "i'm lonely / wanna die" is it...

[wikiporno2]

@uncleadolf Hey, i said i love the instrumentals. Just because I don't like the lyrics doesn't make my oppinion less valuable then yours.

[buuski]

@wikiporno2

Yes it does. If you call NIN emo, you're an idiot and your opinion is worth jack shit from that point on.

Seriously, calling NIN emo is like calling Katy Perry death metal.

[DWazntHere]

@buuski Holy fuck!?! Katy Perry ISN'T death metal? D:

[wikiporno2]

@buuski lolwut?

[hellscion7]

@buuski he did bring the emo style 'back' though, after it disappeared during the 80s..

just look at pics from him right after the fragile(very emo title), back in the late 90s.. he was sportin the emo cut before it was in, again...

[lovemeordie83]

@wikiporno2 The lyrics, while angry, do bear literary analysis. Also, towards the end, there is this shift from the speaker to the ACTUAL 'Ruiner', which indicates an inner, psychotic struggle. This song would be the psychological battle of the speaker trying to defend his sense of identity from being manifested by the 'Ruiner', which is the disturbing part of the 'Ruiner'- by trying to destroy the 'Ruiner', he becomes one himself, thus losing that battle, hence it stopping at 'stop'.

[lovemeordie83]

It's just my opinion, though. Make of it what you will. :P

[KimonoFlareonGX]

Say what you will, but THIS is real music. None of that Ke$ha/Katy Perry/Drake/Taylor Swift horseshit.

[porteraportera]

@KimonoFlareonGX i dont understand how anyone even takes "Drake" seriously.

[RezCypher]

@KimonoFlareonGX /Linkin Park/Dubstep/Arcade Fire. I thought I should continue your list.

[BigTisawesome]

@RezCypher linkin park can never be good...they fucking lost it

[AdmiralGFM]

@RezCypher I think you should omit LP from that list. Their first two albums (three if you count Reanimation, the remix CD they put out) were pure gold. It's kind of sad what direction they decided to take, though.

[RezCypher]

@AdmiralGFM Yeah, in hindsight I regret posting that. I don't particularly like LP, nor do I think they are that special, but in all honesty they aren't THAT bad. I also wish people wouldn't disregard them just because they changed their style. As long as they put the same effort and talent into the music, I don't see the problem. NIN is a good example of style changing done right. If LP changed to accomodate the music industry's modern taste, THEN I understand the disdain.

[AdmiralGFM]

@RezCypher That was a very well-worded post! In fact, their latest record "A Thousand Suns" is a bit of a guilty pleasure of mine!

[RezCypher]

@AdmiralGFM I'm the same way with Ministry's Dark Side of the Spoon. Everyone says it sucks, but...I can't hate it.

[keisarilahikainen]

@KimonoFlareonGX all those are actually great musicians. you just don't like them. dishonoring them makes you only look closed minded. and million flies can't be wrong. shit is good. don't get me wrong i'm huge NIN fan but i like all the music equal

[HillcrestCapital]

@KimonoFlareonGX FUCKING JUSTIN BEIBER MAAAAAAAAAAAN!

[JesusTerminator]

damn it...trent could be an amazing guitar player, and we'll never really know

[krazykimchee]

I LOVE TRENT REZNER!! SUCH A MUSICAL LYRICAL GENIUS!! SO CREATIVE AND INSPIRING IS HIS MUSIC. BUT IM NOT GAY!!

[OneNationUnderMe]

someone give me lyrics cuz this is wut i hear before the loud ass guitar:

"How'd you get so big?

How'd you get so strong?!

how's it get so hard?!

Howd it get so strong?!

I'm not too gay to know!

Dead sereous that's wut i hear, my ears might be fucked up

[SBJimmeh]

@OneNationUnderMe

And what you gave to me

My perfect ring of scars

You know I can see

What you really are

[mrgeebaby86]

@OneNationUnderMe ha ha i always thought it said that!

[mrgeebaby86]

@OneNationUnderMe ha ha i always thought it said that! but instead of the second strong i hear long?

[OneNationUnderMe]

@mrgeebaby86 yea, the second strong was a typo, i meant to say :"How'd it get so long"

[mrgeebaby86]

@OneNationUnderMe , lol some of trents lyrics are very suspicious. In the song starfuckers he sings "and when i suck you off not a drop will go to waste, its really not so bad once you get past the taste"

i know he isnt gay, but with lyrics like those he sure sounds like one haha

[OneNationUnderMe]

@mrgeebaby86 i know, he's one of my FAVORITE singers, but he does seem suspicious, lol

[bobvoreal]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck this sound modulation .

fucking ruined the subtle sound layers that makes this music awesome music.

[hallorand9]

Nails... All day. Errday. Fuck you if you don't like it. You can have fun with your music that misses the point of being music itself..To have a point. With atleast some musical talent. Well..this band just has it all.

[wikiporno2]

@AlexaBellmanyczpuh COOL! THAT SOUNDS LIKE AN AWESOME DEAL THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!

[01Lila10]

first time i've ever heard the a song frm NIN an i really like it... at least this one :/

[SineFractal]

Fuck you cracked. Go back to writing your shitty articles.

[mmm4466]

I know people will hate me for saying it, but this song sounds terrible. I came here from cracked, so don't ask me why I'm listening.

[theruiner89]

@mmm4466

To be fair, the sound quality is pretty terrible. The song is a hell of a lot more epic and enjoyable on a good sound system.

[AgnarchyBeats]

Sound quality is terrible.

[MamuVies]

Holy shit... That sound from 0:50 to 1:20 make me feel like I can do anything

[imtinaodarby]

@MamuVies I'm right there with you on this. Happens to be my favorite aspect of the song.

[MamuVies]

@imtinaodarby Riiight?! I was blown away when I heard it. How I'd love to spend one day inside Reznor's head... Must be a killer soundtrack in there.

[PerfectingTimeTravel]

Cracked.

[etempest84]

@PerfectingTimeTravel Thanks to cracked I now have to go listen to my NIN collection. For 36 hours.

[VesdezarCenarius]

i dont understand why this song isnt more popular compared to the other nin songs.. im not a huge nin fan but this song is just way too good for how unknown it seems like it is

[ravenouscolonelhart]

@VesdezarCenarius it was never a single but it has always been a fan favourite

[StephKath117]

@VesdezarCenarius this has got to be one of my favorite NIN songs and I'm a HUGE fan

[cyberslick18]

@VesdezarCenarius Mainly because it's a noisy piece of shit.

[theruiner89]

@cyberslick18

GTFO

[cyberslick18]

@theruiner89 Ruh roh shaggy, butthurt fanboy

[theruiner89]

@cyberslick18

butthurt fanboy? Right, because a negative comment ON YOUTUBE from a pretentious douchebag for a band the majority of people like NEVER happens. Try trolling another band dude. Seriously, if you don't like the music GTFO, stop wasting your precious time and listen to some Smiths or whatever.

[cyberslick18]

@theruiner89 Please, let the tears keep flowing. No trolling here, this music is fucking terrible and you know it. Enjoy being a pretentious music douchebag.

[theruiner89]

@cyberslick18

How exactly do I "know it"?

Because you tell me? are you writer for P4K?

[marcsman229]

@cyberslick18 haha, butthurt fanboy. go home, butthurt fanboy

[cyberslick18]

@marcsman229  wikipedia,org/trolling101

[vetiarvind]

@cyberslick18 Who's being a pretentious music douchebag here?  ding ding ding.

[mrgeebaby86]

@cyberslick18 oh im glad you changed my opinion of this music, i liked it until you made me realise my error of my ways, every time i hear a new song i will run it past you just too make sure. Any musicians out there make sure to check with this guy first!

[cyberslick18]

@mrgeebaby86 Thanks, I appreciate it.

[Deathend]

@theruiner89 But, I like both Nine Inch Nails and the Smiths. :(

[marcsman229]

@theruiner89 The Smiths are insanely better than NiN, wtf are you talking about?

[theruiner89]

@marcsman229

Wasn't comparing them. The Smiths have an overpopulated hipster fanbase who overate music and denounce anything outside of their own cattle's interests. Seems like he was the type of guy, and you too.

[marcsman229]

@theruiner89 and you don't? hypocrite... you probably wear a fedora hat and read "psychology" books

[theruiner89]

@marcsman22

The only time I wear a fedora hat is when I watch Indiana Jones. I also wield a whip. Indiana Jones is fucking awesome.

[wllOvOllw]

@VesdezarCenarius

It's one of my favorite。。。。AND into the void.

いいの糞。

[romansoldierdude]

@wllOvOllw DUDE those are my favorites too! :D

...and Sin. That's the song that made me love NIn :3

[wllOvOllw]

@romansoldierdude

はい。

I loved a lot of their older stuff, all of the HALO albums have gems on them :)

thanks for replying!!!

[TheAndiePerson]

@VesdezarCenarius It's not so popular because when Trent wrote it he thought it was a colossal failure and never really performed it at concerts, so it wasn't bigger cause he didn't want it to be bigger.

[vycon88]

@VesdezarCenarius any true fan knows this song and thats all that matters

[Ruiner667]

Inspired my nickname, this song :)

[MisteruEksu]

2 People ruined it.

[thegreek14]

This song reminds me of the feeling I get when I get tunnel vision.

[gangstajacy]

this song is on the intersection of religion, rough sex, politics, and leaders, and thats the best part, it has no established meaning, there could be 100 different meanings to 100 different people, but the song is still intense, and amazing as it is, i love all NIN songs but this one is one of my FAVORITES

[ShingoEX]

I distinctly remember hearing a radio edit of this on a local station back in the day, but have yet to find record of it.

[JexMugen]

2 peoples got RUINED!!!

[monkeyjoe9]

pretty hate machine might have been a ripe of but you need to get your ispiration some where, and its kind of like sayin an air plane is a ripe off from the right brothers, so in order to evolve you need to get previous ideas about things song is awsome though the instrumental is so complex and genius how did he do that even though he did heroin coke and drank alcohol, but even when he is sober like the fragile and ,year zero is still awsome

[vetiarvind]

This song is sex.

[JesusTerminator]

moar solos, trent...MOAR SOLOS.

[JexMugen]

2 words: BAD and ASS!!!

[StickyInADarkBlueCut]

Is trent talking about penis in this song?

[AnimamDespondere]

@StickyInADarkBlueCut I always figured it was a phallic euphemism for life in general. It's whatever you make it I guess. :P

[gangstajacy]

@StickyInADarkBlueCut depends on how u look at the song and what it means to you
