[ThisOneIsOnUs]

The rest is slowly coming in... One track at a time.

Trent Reznor is going to cum all over you.

[dollhairthepup]

I'm gonna cum all over you...

@mmcytb Well the studio version probably has 20 or so tracks of overdubbed guitar. Can't get that sound live. Sounds pretty good for four guys.

[mmcytb]

its weird how you expect this song to sound better live - but it doesnt

still awesome tho

I like how the live version starts compared to the album version. It sounds much more modern. Unfortunately, with the exception of the intro, I feel that the live version has always failed to be anywhere near as intense as the album version. Also, that singing douche in the crowd strikes again :(

[thepenguin55]

@Elslav Actually, old live performances of this song sound about the same. NIN was just never really able to capture the intensity of this song live...

[Elslav]

pretty shitty version.. but what you expect after all these years. Time to sit down and retire Trent.. you arent 30 anymore

[TheSilverAce]

@tmartmartin I don't care........=)

[TheNineinchsnails]

[hatfisc]

Where is the heavy bassy synth?

[MountHappy]

@hatfisc

Any Downward Spiral-era track live won't sound as good as it did back when Trent was fucked up on drugs... the cocaine-driven rage is what fueled NIN's live shows back then.

him and his fucking gun...
