Ok, I am NOT sick, lol, I'm an old school NIN fan and when I first heard this track its scared the living crappola out of me. The whole thing was like a horror exploitation movie converted to music. Even the feel of the song reminded me of hell and torture. So the images in this vid, sick and dark as they may be, somehow resemble the underlying horror of the song (for me at least lol). All you older NIN fans out there since he first started all know he had a much sinister and darker vision, Broken movie anyone?

PS, I lowered the pitch slightly, for some reason it seems to sound a little more disturbing that way. Enjoy!!

  • doesn't scare me anymore.. awesome work!

  • @joe6panther6 cheers matey. If you like this one go to my channel and see the video I made for zero summ, it's about 100 times better than this. ;)

  • I'm such a slow fuck. I just fully read your description.

    duh. You wrote that you lowered the pitch.

    Watch NIN's short film for "Broken", if you get a chance.

  • @SubliminalMinded2011 watch it on a daily basis mate, turns me on ha ha

  • very good use of (what seems to be) dark humor with dystopian themes.

    the track sounds like its been slowed down a little.

    yes?

  • @SubliminalMinded2011 correct!

  • You put this song into a video that resembles almost the same view as me. 5/5 This is just plain out awesome.

  • I never found horror in NIN, probably because I just related to it so much.

  • I'm surprised you think of death and horror when you hear this song. It's really about (metaphorically speaking) a spiral of depression and confusion, though I can tell you figured that out already. Anyway, good job on the video...

  • Wow. Nice job

  • @muskateering Try nin " Eraser.denial;realization " from further down the spiral. Still scares the shit out of me.

  • omg o_o

  • ...beautiful imagery.....

  • good ole reznor, dark and self hating back then. good vid. captured the feeling in my opinion. and I remember when this first came out I was in highscool. but I was in middle school for pretty hate machine so didn't hear it till highschool also. loved that band, still do, thanks

  • Ive heard other NIN music, but it was a long time ago. I like the sonic sound of this song :) Michael Jackson brought me to this song tho, he was apparently a big fan of them and loved this album :)... I'm a student of music :) Peace&love

  • I love the clip and the song ! *o* NIN <3
