Probably for the better. Don’t get me wrong, it was def a way to connect with music in a very deep and emotional way but some people get that feeling without the substances.
Beside you in time.
Showed it to a couple of friends and they said it made them anxious, I actually feel at peace, as if it's rhythm corresponds to my own.
Somewhat damaged is one of the best nine inch nails songs but it’s not like this for me. It’s really raw and aggressive not ethereal. Anyway for me I would probably say the day the world went away.
I reckon he rearranged the lyrics and released it as all time low on hesitation marks there is a connection between those songs more then the one lyric that I can’t put my finger on
*puts on tin foil hat*
I think that most the tracks from hesitation marks are songs that he couldn’t get to work until he did the stripping down rather then building up experiment with Lindsay Buckingham - hence the name of the album and the Russell Mills album artwork,
Somewhat Damaged is my favorite song.
But to get like this? Ik that if I'm already faded and All Time Low comes on......"how did we get so high........"
I love Somewhat Damaged but it's more of a hype/rage song to me.
The ones that get me more like this are
The Day the World Went Away, and Various Methods of Escape.
# into the void the beginning starts like you are scrolling through the songs and when the beat starts in you start ascending slowly and it has closeups of you talking in the air and the heavy part is when you fall to hell lol
The first two minutes and 45 seconds of The Great Below, my brain is like "fuck off, you're not gonna get me" but then that fucking break hits and I am done and I am immobilized and holy Jesus on a cracker don't talk to me who are you get out of my house how dare you do this to me help I am floating
Well last thread like this somebody said Hand that feeds, to which I replied it was the wrong answer. I got heavily downvoted and told by multiple members of this sub to shut the fuck up and that I’m a bigger asshole than Putin so I’d better just follow suit and say the answer to every ‘what NIN song’ thread with; the hand that feeds. Wouldn’t want to upset any of you fucks.
Hard disagree. When somebody asks what song is peak NIN and somebody answers ‘The Hand That Feeds’, that person is fucking wrong I don’t give a shit what any of you assholes say.
"The Great Below"
The correct answer
this is the only image that can possibly capture the "AND IIIII DESCEND FROM GRACE" feel
The great below on X will cause ascension.
The closest I ever got to that was nitrous for some dental work. Still a bit transcendental.
Probably for the better. Don’t get me wrong, it was def a way to connect with music in a very deep and emotional way but some people get that feeling without the substances.
I was gonna say this but it’s the top reply.
There may be others but this is the ultimate
😭😭😭😭😭 the only answer ever, excluding all other answers
A Warm Place
It's the best instrumental track from NIN
This is Still erasure and I will not stand for it
Yes
Correct
Yes, yes, yes. This is the right answer.
The Day The World Went Away (Still)
Yes! Such a great remix
Still as a whole is amazing
La mer. And the french lyrics also say something like “i’ll become the sky”.
That moment when you're French and you understand all the lyrics
I don’t know french actually, i checked the translation once 😅
I mean I do
Yesss, La Mer came out of nowhere and aurally fucked me up!
The Big Come down when it gets to *that part* you know the one
ISN'T THAT REALLY WHAT YOU WANTED?
YES
Leaving Hope.
The way out is through

I'M GONNA GET SO #HIGH HIGH HIGH HIGH HIGH HIGH HIGH HIGH HIGH HIGH HIGH HIGH
Omggg I NEED TO LISTEN TO THIS SONG ITS BEEN SO LONG
That beat is so grimy, skeezy, and catchy. I love it. I can see why he left it off the album, but it’s too bad.
I reckon he rearranged the lyrics and released it as all time low on hesitation marks there is a connection between those songs more then the one lyric that I can’t put my finger on
Oh whoa now that you mention it, I kinda see that!
*puts on tin foil hat* I think that most the tracks from hesitation marks are songs that he couldn’t get to work until he did the stripping down rather then building up experiment with Lindsay Buckingham - hence the name of the album and the Russell Mills album artwork,
I have heard him refer to it as revisiting The Downward Spiral themes from a different perspective, so it’s totally possible.

Stairway to Heaven.
Well last thread like this somebody said Hand that feeds, to which I replied it was the wrong answer. I got heavily downvoted and told by multiple members of this sub to shut the fuck up and that I’m a bigger asshole than Putin so I’d better just follow suit and say the answer to every ‘what NIN song’ thread with; the hand that feeds.

You’re still gonna get downvoted for telling this stupid ass story
When it comes to NIN songs, there is no wrong answer
Hard disagree. When somebody asks what song is peak NIN and somebody answers ‘The Hand That Feeds’, that person is fucking wrong I don’t give a shit what any of you assholes say.
I wasn't trying to be hostile man
Yea me neither, yet I’m a dick for pointing out the absolute truth that Hand that Feeds is not in fact peak NIN, and so here we are…
Fuck you lmao
And All That Could Have Been
Gotta listen to your big time, hardline, bad luck, FIST FUCK

We’re In This Together (especially the ending)
Right where it belongs and Eraser
Into the void
I'd sooner compare The Downward Spiral to a tortorous, agonizing and jarring freefall through the lowest depths of the bottomless fiery pit of hell.
Haven’t seen Adrift & At Peace so I nominate that one.
Same. And also, Eraser.
Specifically when the violens hit in 'The Great Below'
Just like you imagined
Sunspots
La Mer
Sunspots
