Not to be a Debbie Downward, but there's not really such thing as a "Doom Soundfont", it was just whatever your computer's MIDI sounded like. At the time, probably not anything like that. But it does remind me of how it sounds on modern versions. I guess the choice of instruments is the key thing here.

I've heard __________ but in the __________ Soundfont videos on YouTube that I've enjoyed more, but this one has its moments for sure. I appreciate all the channel panning going on. Hearing these while playing Doom would probably be rad.

Has T-Rez ever said that he doesn't consider Hurt to be his song anymore/that it's Johnny Cash's song now? My friend is adamant that he's read this somewhere but can't provide a scrap of evidence. I have a supremely hard time believing Trent would ever say that about one of his songs, especially one as important/personal as Hurt.

I saw him saying that on TikTok recently, but it's a hellsite with no good search tools so I can't find the video.

Yeah it's not like he disowned it or something, he just doesn't have as much of a personal connection to it I guess. After initially feeling sort of violated. He went from "He's taking my song away!" to "Oh, I guess it isn't really my song anymore anyway."

I think people tend to take artists hyperbole too literally. Cash made the song 'his own' and that probably brought up all kinds of weird feelings for Reznor, but thats not the same as it being literally ruined.

Between War, Genocide and non-stop diabetes commercials, critics are trying to sort thru tea leaves to declare soothsayers. Some of them decide to interview people who got covered by them:

The New York Times posted:

“I think they’re highly underrated in terms of the zeitgeist,” Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails said in a phone interview. “Devo challenged the idea of what a rock band could be. It felt like rock was mutating. It made me realize, ‘Oh, there aren’t any rules. You know, you can do anything.’”

Is there a specific time we can point to when NIN gave up any pretense of being different from any of the other interchangeable bands selling endless tchotchkes?

NIN feels like a band that was always heavily merchandised (for the non KISS division) so I'm not really surprised he puts out even more stuff now that it's easier to do so and his fans need golf polos.

Wish I hadn't prevaricated about buying that one, it sold out really quickly. The tote bag actually looks quite good, but I've just bought another one recently so can't justify having two on the go. Anyway when's the Year Zero remaster due

Yeah but that one is funny, a random H&M shirt with the NIN logo is just very anonymous.
They had Grateful Dead shirts when I was there last, left a weird taste in my mouth.
On the other hand, the last thing I want is to gatekeep NIN :(

I think Trent said in an interview waaaaaay back that part of the reason he went with calling the band Nine Inch Nails was because of how cool the NIN logo looked, and he was right.
