der kommissar.

Sex dwarf (if for no other reason than we could finally get a decent bootleg)

You Made Me Realise (cause the original is beautiful guitar noise, I know Trent's said he's a fan of MBV, I'd like to see some digital noise!)

Pattern Recognition by Sonic Youth perhaps?
*shrugs* I don't think nin have ever done a 'bad' cover really, unlike bands like Manson, There is actual innovation involved in Trent's reinterpretation of another artist's work.

I'd love to hear Trent put his take on some more Numan.

Mad World, but Gary Jules' version.

I think Trent should revive the song Black Bomb (Jerry in the box)that he did with Wink in 1998. Like he did with Suck.

A megadeth song would be pretty awesome, who would cover the guitar solos?

 

04/16/09 8:45 PM

Even if this whole thread is terribly irrelevant at this point:

Ever (Foreign Flag) by Team Sleep
Win, Candidate, or Oh! You Pretty Things by Bowie
Digital Bath by Deftones

Someone suggested Tom Sawyer and I nearly peed my pants imagining Trent trying to get through that song with a straight face.

bat out of hell- meatloaf

I said it on Twitter, and I'll say it again: Convoy. That is all.

or Jazz progression in NIN... the thick harmony tends to kill the aggression
March of the Pigs, no? but then again, I suppose it intentionally kills the aggression.
You mean the end? Yeah, I think the idea was to make it sound exactly the opposite of the rest of the song. And of course, when Trent actually writes a softer song, it doesn't sound anything like the end of MOTP
Actually, doesnt he work with one on I Do Not Want This as well? that jazz progression overtop the industrial drums gives it a more subdued, or defeated, aggression, rather than outright killing it. Think how We Suck Young Blood sounds distressingly dead and aggressive.
Yes you're right. I should have qualified my statements regarding jazz by saying "traditional jazz" or whatever. There comes a point where a lead can both be considered atonal AND jazz and yes, Trent is happy to use those kinds of leads in his music.

So to clarify, you might hear something like atonal (or accidental-filled) leads in his music, but you'd be hard-pressed to find something in his music filled with 13th chords or melodies played where the key is always set to play one type of chord (e.g., making every key play minor 7th chords and then playing melodies with this setup).

I....

I'll be quiet tongue sticking out smiley

I'll go with a Day In The Life by The Beatles.

Or Within You Without You

I was just skimming throught this thread, and after listening to the new remaster of this, the thought of NIN covering this is like perfect, especially when the end of Hurt always reminded me of that last Chord at the end.

The Noose by a perfect circle....That's a hard one to make your own. Trent seems to do that with everything

 

11/05/09 10:25 AM

Mad World (Gary Jules)

and LOVE - Smashing Pumpkins..it already seems a NIN song

 

11/05/09 5:09 PM

Cars-Gary Numan

oh wait, that already happened and my dreams were fulfilled!

 

11/05/09 5:48 PM

It would be cool if they covered 'Where is my Mind' by the Pixies.

Youtube - Where is my Mind

 

11/06/09 3:49 AM

Maybe one more Saul Williams song? Break or Convict Colony with all Reznor's vox...

Trent seems to do what? Noose's made for clean voice, very unlike Trent's.

I would love to hear Trent's take on "It's natural to be Afraid" by Explosions in the Sky or "Final Heart Beats Black" by Sleepy Eyes of Death

I would like NIN to cover Black Light Burns' song "Cruel Melody" from their debut album of the same title. Or maybe even "Mesopotamia", that song has a 'NIN cool' feel to it.
I guess that's sort of cheating since Danny Lohner played/produced that album. But the songs are just SOOOO cool. Wes Borland is such a fucking genius.

Also, I really think NIN would make a cool version of "Antarctica" by The Bled.

And a NIN version of Tool's 'Parabol' would be really badass. A NIN version of Parabol leading into Parabola, would be ... how to say... infinite in awesome?

Christ, I definitely agree with this.

And i strongly disagree. To anything by Tool (except maybe H.). "The chance to beeeeee alive and breeeeeathing" from Reznor? What a ridicule that must be.

Beatles - I Wanna Hold Your Hand

Maybe Lips Like Morphine by Kill Hannah.

Woven Hand: Story and Pictures

shook out my salvation
in all four corners of my room
lowly is the dust
trustworthy the broom

white lady
growlin on a chain
peacock caw the sound of my lover's name
the tone was pure and played on gut
from your birdhouse aflame

your fire burns for me
red as grace
the blush came easily to your face
your fire burns for me
red as grace
and she says that none would have her

as a boy I too drew near
to the love of dust
toughskin blue light cowboy
idle hands they rust

your fire burns for me
red as grace
the blush came easily to your face
your fire burns for me
red as grace
and she says that none would have her

let us allow the character to build
wise as serpents and harmless as doves
let's allow the emptiness to fill
rich mercy and brotherly love

your fire burns for me
red as grace
the blush came easily to your face
your fire burns for me
red as grace
and she says that none would have her

I'd like to see isolation by joy division.

I think it would sound better performed live. I loved seeing Dead Souls performed at Bonnaroo.

And Justin would wear the bass out on that song grinning smiley
