Well I was just listening to the song The Fragile, and honestly if The Fragile hadn't come out basically 10 years before Season 5 of Dexter, I would have thought Trent wrote the song about this season. It honestly sounds based off the show.
Especially the Lines "If I could fix myself I'd - but its too late for me" and "Before everything else, I was like you"
I don't want to explicitly say anything about the show in case someone wants to watch or hasn't seen it yet, but the parallels are uncanny.
But yeah, if you don't watch Dexter, go start watching right now, I can see it easily being up any Nine Inch Nails Fan's ally, and if you have seen season 5, be thinking about it while you listen to The Fragile, you'll see what I mean.
The human brain can find parallels between anything. Here's an example: take any album, preferably one with lots of lyrics (prog rock albums are good for this), and run it alongside any random film in your collection. It will synch up with loads of events.
Whilst it's possible parts of the staff are NIN fans, this is just your brain making assumptions about things. If they wanted to give a hat tip to NIN, they would do what Fringe does and just play the songs.
