Life's not easy for alternative rockers right now Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor finds that maintaining musical integrity is tough in the age of Britney Spears.
By Greg Kot
The thrill is gone, a wise blues man once said, and Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor is trying to figure out how to get it back.
"I've had some time the last few months to calmly look back at my life, and to see if I'm happy with what I've done, and to determine whether I get the same pleasure out of making music that I did a few years ago," Reznor says from his New Orleans home studio. "And, I haven't had the same pleasure, basically. And I am trying to get back to why that is.
"The side of the record business that doesn't nurture artists or promote chance-taking, that has been shoved in my face lately. And I'm coming to terms with those things."
Not that Reznor has spent all of his time brooding. He has devoted most of the last year to editing a DVD of Nine Inch Nails' 2000 tour and a companion double CD, And All That Could Have Been (Nothing/Interscope), released Tuesday.
The DVD was complied from more than 20 concerts; the CD comprises a different set of performances from the same tour, as well as a bonus set of ambient soundscapes. It's a beautiful set of packages documenting a visually sumptuous concert; the double CD, for example, comes in a cloth-bound slipcase. The record-geek Reznor wouldn't have it any other way.
"I was the guy that on the way home from the record shop would smell the vinyl and couldn't wait to get home to turn off the phone and the TV and sit in my room with the headphones to experiences the album," he says. "I like looking at the liner notes, the packaging, the extras that come with the music. It all adds to the experience.
"The many battles with the record company over this DVD were all about cutting out some of that stuff; how much cooler artwork could be on the DVD face itself, whether there really needed to be an extra CD of mood pieces, the cloth packaging. 'Nobody cares about that stuff,' they say. Well, I care. I used to buy albums because the cover looked cool. But I'm getting the impression that fewer and fewer people do care about that stuff."
Attitude, attitude
If Reznor were getting graded for attitude in elementary school, he'd get an F. The casual fan might ask: Why so glum, Trent? You're a rock star! Get over yourself!
But if Reznor weren't such an obsessive personality, his music probably wouldn't be what it is. In 1999, Reznor finished work on Nine Inch Nails' The Fragile, one of the most sonically ambitious, densely layered rock albums ever made. The double CD had taken years to make in his New Orleans studio, but when it was completed, Reznor figured he had made the album of his lifetime, a work that expanded upon the multimillion-selling success of its 1994 predecessor, The Downward Spiral.
But The Fragile never took off commercially. It inched past the million-sales mark and faded fast. Like many of Reznor's peers from the early 90s, the artists who had defined the alternative-rock era - Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Hole, Rage Against the Machine, Jane's Addiction - The Fragile was out of step with a pop culture dominated by Britney Spears and Jay-Z.
You could say that it was simply a case of one corporate marketing model (alternative rock) being replaced by another (teen pop), but the artistic stakes were clearly higher in the early 90s. Reznor, the Pumpkins' Billy Corgan and Nirvana's Kurt Cobain wanted their hits, but they wanted them on their own terms: to make albums that were as challenging as they were commercial. Now, Cobain is dead and all of those bands have either broken up or have been shoved into the elder-statesmen outer fringe. Respect they may have, but commercial radio has moved on.
"The down-key approach to art and music doesn't work anymore," said Corgan, shortly before the Smashing Pumpkins announced its breakup. "I saw that with the Nine Inch Nails record. It's a great, ambitious record. But people don't want art right now, they want P.T. Barnum. [The Pumpkins'] biggest album was in '95, and Trent's was in '94. That doesn't seem that long ago to us, but to kids who are 15, they weren't even in the loop back then and they just don't care.
There isn't much P.T. Barnum in the post-alternative-rock world at the moment. After dismantling the Pumpkins, Corgan has formed a new band, Zwan, which has played a handful of modest club shows while he wrestles with the question of "Am I still gong to try to be a rock star or just declassify myself into a lower ring of hell?"
Lower profiles
The members of Pearly Lam has been working on low-profile solo projects. The surviving members of Nirvana are bogged down in court proceedings with Cobain's widow, Courtney Love, over the release of a box set. Jane's Addiction reunited, only to play 10-year-old songs. Soundgarden's Chris Cornell put out a moderately well-received solo album and has joined three members of Rage Against the Machine in a new band, which has yet to release any music.
Reznor, meanwhile, says he's going to work on his next studio album with a clearer idea of his mission.
"I've always done albums that were true to me at the time, " he says. "It just happened that who I was when I made Downward Spiral touched a nerve with a lot of people. Then you're faced with, 'Do I now chase that to maintain this success, which become a business, or do I remember why I'm doing this in the first place, which is to make music?'
"You get off track of your priorities. You can say it won't happen to you, but it has happened to me - to the point where I have had to stop the train and say, "Why am I doing this?"
"The last album doing not as well has give me the courage and humbleness to make better music in the future, to put less attention on catering to an audience that is preventing me from making the truest art I can. You have to do it for yourself, yourself only. I have to keep that in mind. I am keeping that in mind."

Matildauk heard from a source that Trent may be on the cover of an upcoming issue of Kerrang magazine. The source said the issue will also feature a five page interview. All we can say is wait and keep an eye open.

That smooth Universal Canada NIN page is reporting that despite only being out for about a week, the video release And All That Could Have Been has gone double platinum. In Canada. So that's 200,000 copies sold, not 2,000,000. We haven't heard any information about US sales just yet, but that's a pretty good start.

DJBitter heard on the radio that the music program manager at CFNY:the edge visited New Orleans to interview Trent Reznor. He will have bits of the interview on his radio show between 8-9pm est on Sunday in Toronto. To listen online go to www.edge102.com.

In this interview on jam! showbiz, part of the Canoe Network, Trent talks about the decision to put out a live release, and even says he's working on new music he hopes to have done by ... well, we wouldn't want to spoil it, would we. We'd like to smack jam! showbiz for even asking for a release date, anyway. They have also posted a less than stellar 3 out of 5 review from Friday by Darryl Sterdan, followed by Mike Ross's 4 out of 5 review, which doesn't focus on belittling the project quite like the prior. Alleviate the Pain from fall-apart.net sent that set of news in.

Attention all you Aussies that visit here... John Raptis' acclaimed website, Happiness in Slavery, is planning a competition in conjunction with Universal Records Australia to coordinate with the overhaul of his website and the opening of his new message board. While most details are not yet available, there are two pre-requisites at this time - you have to be from Australia, and you have to be a registered member of the message board. The HiS boards are aimed at developing an Australian NIN community (and I'm sure New Zealanders are invited, too... right? Heehee), so if you're looking for a place to meet up with some other ninnies from down under, check it out.

Our friend Morpheus_TechnoPagan sent a bit of news today:
Pioneering UK electronica group THE BLACK DOG (remixers for artists incl. Marilyn Manson, Radiohead, Bjork, Morphine, Placebo, etc) invited Charlie Clouser to complete a remix of their upcoming album ("Unsavoury Products" - a tribute to William Burroughs) that will feature remixes by CJ Bolland, A Guy Called Gerald, 808 State, Jimmy Cauty (of The KLF), etc. C. Clouser's participation has NOT been confirmed yet.
THE BLACK DOG are huge fans of Charlie Clouser and will keep TRF posted on future developments. An exclusive interview of THE BLACK DOG -dealing mainly w/ NIN and C. Clouser- will be published @ TRF very soon.
More (including album teaser) available in the News section of TRF.
A side note from our Hoss--Leviathant:The Black Dog shares members with Plaid, the group that was licensed to Nothing for a while.

This is pretty interesting... it looks like the Canadian branch of Universal Music has put together a page all about the release of AATCHB. It includes a streaming clip of Head Like a Hole live, as well as several loops from the audio CDs, thumbnails of the various release formats, and general information on the release. All in all it's a pretty nice little page. Thanks to Mike from fragiledesign for sending that one in!

I think that pretty much says it. Thanks to nothoney for alerting us to that. Oh, and BuckSatan filled me in - that Strombo fellow is from MuchMusic, he is essentially their version of Kurt Loder. His complete interviews are usually played during "newmusic" or "muchnews weekend."

Cat wrote in to mention that her site, BeingTrentReznor.com will be updating later this week with photos from the line at Tower Records to sign up for the in-store appearance that occured on Tuesday. Also, Happiness In Slavery, the old-school Australian NIN website run by John Raptis, redesigned for the release of the DVD. fall-apart.net is holding several contests for all kinds of nin stuff, visit their forums for more information.

CUT NINE INCHES OFF YOUR WAIST - Does that subject line look familiar? If you deleted it, you missed out on a leak to a DVD trailer. It's also a pretty funny read. Observant ninnies like blacklightfreakout noticed that the 'from:' address had the letters TRENT and ROB in caps among the lower case nonsense. Here's the trailer...

A lot of you have been writing in with information on how to access bonus items on the DVD, although most of which have been via DVD-ROM and Chapter Selection options on players. We will post how to reach the DVD extras as we find out about them - notice that we posted how to find the Manson performance of Starfuckers & The Beautiful People on the big post we made the day the DVD went on sale.

CONTINUING RELEASE PARTIES - dwnwrd sent in word that Club Cherry will be having a release party on the 25th - you can find more information about this in this weeks L.A. Weekly. Thanks dwnwrd ;) Chris wrote in to point out that Virginia Tech in Blacksburg VA will be having a free screening of the DVD on February 4th, at 9pm in Squires Colonial.
Mormolyke is keeping up with things in Australia, where on February 23rd, Ritual will be holding a party for both Queen of the Damned and the Nine Inch Nails live release. All kinds of freebies to be nabbed!

NINjaw P.B. - who plays a big part in France's NIN Fan Club, wrote in to let us know that despite delays in the European release, the US import was actually available in Paris a day before AATCHB went on sale in the US. You can check out pictures of the French Fan Club raiding a Virgin Megastore.

I know you're out there, which one of you was it. Kim was watching TRL the other day, and in the background she saw kids holding up NIN posters and "TRL Sucks" posters. Right on ;)

MuchMusic in canada is airing commercials for the DVD, apparently produced by HMV music, according to wicked2thousand
Commercial details: opens with black NIN logo on static background. narratior says band name and album name. flashes to a vid clip of the band performing 'march of the pigs' (framed with static border). after showing clip for a few seconds, it displays all 3 versions (DVD/VHS, CD, bonus CD 'Still') at the bottom, while narrator says "get a sneak peak at HMV.com".
Also, nintime wrote in from Québec to mention that Montreal TV show "Flash" gave the NIN DVD a 10/10 review.
Continuing on the topic of reviews, DVD @ IGN.com gave a really nice review here about the NIN double-DVD. It got high marks everywhere, except for the bonus features, because the reviewer by his own measure has just begun becoming a NIN fan (thanks to the DVD) and doesn't know yet that when it comes to Nine Inch Nails, you find that the juicy stuff is oft buried amongst the rest of the good stuff. Gravix and Choser -and- Deviation sent in that tidbit.
Also, MTV.com posted a nice article on the DVD, including two new video interviews with Trent, dealing with the DVD delays, and talking about how he's proud of the end result. RaveGyrl sent that one in.

happy wrote in about "part three of George Stroumboulopoulos' New Orleans interview with Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor", but forgot to mention what publication the interviews appear in. I guess I could search google for Stroumboulopoulos, but typing that name twice has got my fingers aching. Or maybe that's just all the past-due updates I've posted just now.
