Please dont leave me now...your too much apart of my life...of my generation...of my feelings....

In Trent we Trust.

unfortunatly i wasnt able to make it to the lights in the sky shows, with great great dissapointment, to hear that the one thing that keeps me sane in this world gone to shit is going to stop for awhile, i suppose we all have to deal with it, and hope that Trent comes back with some kick ass new stuff to show us all why NIN was the pioneer of industrial rock.

This can't be the end. We need NIN now more than ever I think, given the current music climate. We'll all be left with Britney Spears and Fall Out Boy. I guess all good things must come to end, I just always hoped NIN wouldn't be one of those good things that would end. Trent you definitely deserve a break and I wish you the best. I seriously hope this is just a break though, and not truly the end.

Trent, please come to Denmark on the last upcoming tour before you take a break. My band will be ready to support you;-)
Good luck on your future projects.

Best regards,

Jan/Demons Are Real

Hey Trent i want to share a story with you. I was, untill recently, a captain for a major airline in the US. (i know live and fly in Dubai) I was walking of my plane one day, the last person off, and an elderly lady maybe around 60, was walking rather slow off the jetway in front of me. If you have ever seen a pilots flight bag, especially in the US, they are ussually decorated (much to the company's dismay) with stickers or art that sort of expresses the pilots personality, while still remaining semi professional in our uniform. As i walked pass the lady, she spoke in a raspy voice, "excuse me sir are you the captain?" I replied " Yes mam, is there anything i can help you with?" She pointed down at my flight bag (which has a single white NIN sticker on it) and stated: "Any captain that listens to Nine Inch Nails, can be my captain..." I was floored... speechless...

I know with everyone posting on here what your legacy of music has brought to people, and i know that you take what we have said to heart.

But i wanted to share this story with you, to this day i still remember this elderly lady, whom besides being my passenger, shared something with me that i hold close to my heart.

Im not saying goodbye because your music will live on in some form or another, and i hope, maybe one day, when im 70 or 80, i can tell the captain of my flight the same thing.

Let's say it another time.

This is not goodbye. he's leaving for a while.
Understand the text before crying.

I'd like to think we're never too old for good music. Bring back Nails when you're ready. We'll wait. In the meantime, enjoy another kind of life.

I will sneak into Bonnaroo just for you, Trent. See you there, viva NIN!

While he has enjoyed certain parts of this brave new world, he’d like the next NIN album to be “a more thoughtful, contemplative work” – when he finds the time.

“Just because it feels like the right thing, I don’t wanna put out records every four or five months,” he says. “It was fun to do and I may do that again, but at the moment I feel I’d like to take my time; I don’t mean two years, but have a minute to sit and really think about things.”

All the while, at 43 years old, Reznor finds his list of must-dos just keeps getting longer, not shorter.


“Yeah, I’ve noticed that .?.?. I’ll get to them,” he says.

i am gutted, i love nin, i am speechless right now so there is nothing i can express with words

Hi Trent. I've never had much luck with music in my life. I'm 24 years old today and throughout my entire youth I hated music. I hated it mainly because I was raised in a Christian home with parents who tried to force Christian music of all kinds down my throat. I can't stand that kind of music mainly because I can't relate to it 95% of the time. I didn't start getting into music until I turned 17 which was not that long ago. I went through short phases with various bands (Korn, Limp Bizkit, Godsmack, Mudvayne, Metallica, etc.) mainly rock and metal. I started noticing that the more straightforward and plain and simple the music was, the less appealing it was to me.

I got a job a few years ago working for Cocacola and this job required a lot of drive time. Let me tell you something, when your commute is an hour drive one way it really puts your music's longevity to the test. At first it was great but I soon was forced to.....turn on the radio. I only have one rock station so my options were limited but I got to hear a lot of cool stuff but I'll never forget how much I HATED The Hand That Feeds when I first heard it. With Teeth had just came out and they were running that single about every fifth song. After hearing that song three more times that day, the DJ finally said, "And that was the brand new song The Hand That Feeds by Nine Inch Nails!" I went home that night and found myself unable to get that song out of my head. I looked you up on iTunes and it was then that I realized that I had heard some of your other songs before in passing.

Since that time, I have purchased all of your major releases and some of your other offerings as well. If anyone in this thread hasn't looked into the album "Still" you really should. I've loaded over 200 versions of your music into my iPod (including NIN Remixes from this site of course) and about two months ago it hit me. Nine Inch Nails had become my favorite band. Sorry to bore you with all the little details but I wanted to lay this all out to tell you something. Your music withstands the test of time. I really like your music because it is NOT straightforward and mainstream. Some of your songs are enjoyable because the can have several different meanings. I think that's why my friends don't like your music. The tell me, "I can't hear what he's saying through all the static. " or,"I don't understand what he's singing about." or the classic, "He's the guy that sings that song that goes I wanna fuck you like an animal! Yeah that's his only good song." My friends just don't get you because they don't have an imagination. They need someone like Nickelback to spell it all out for them so they can feel smart because they understand it all. To me, that's ok because everyone's different and that's exactly why we have Nine Inch Nails.

I was upset at first when I read your goodbye post. I thought,"Damn! I finally find my favorite band just in time to witness their last breath." After a while though I realized that you as a person can only do so much. I hope your time away helps you find new inspiration and determination. I wish you the best of luck and thank you for all you've given me.

Sincerely,

Anthony Shuemake
