I know who Annie is
Over at Perfect Isolation, Nayl Girl scanned and OCR'd an interview from an upcoming issue of Alternative Press. In Geoff Rickly's interview with Trent Reznor, he talks about his old sweetheart, how the Fragility tour was an awful time, what's been playing in his stereo, and more. A fun read, check it out.

As previously reported, Chris Vrenna and Clint Walsh recorded the theme song for Doom 3 - which hits the US on August 3rd, and Europe (among other places) on the 13th. Vrenna only worked on the theme, but the jury's still out on the sound design, which Trent Reznor put work into for a while before working full-time on Bleed Through.
On the subject of the theme:
”We asked Chris to create a modern DOOM 3 theme song that reflected the character and intensity of DOOM3, and we couldn’t be happier with the final product,” said Todd Hollenshead, CEO, id Software. “Chris and id have shared a mutual appreciation for each others work, and it was exciting to be able to team up on something that fans of both id and Vrenna will appreciate.”
Side A of the 7" will be the theme song, produced by noted producer- composers Chris Vrenna and Clint Walsh. Side B will be a previously unavailable Teargas & Plateglass remix of Tweaker "Crude Sunlight" featuring Jennifer Charles (of Elysian Fields fame). The first 500 copies will be signed by Chris Vrenna and Clint Walsh and will be available as a pre-order at Noon PST on Monday, July 26th (that's really soon, folks) at the Waxploitation store.
Nine Inch Nails, Radiohead & Moby: Modern-Day Mozarts?
KingJPlay at Echoing the Sound spotted copies of And All That Could Have Been and Amnesiac at his University Bookstore, and upon looking further, found that at The University of Oklahoma offered a freshmen-level cultural investigation course called The Music of Nine Inch Nails, Radiohead & Moby: Modern-day Mozarts?
The blurb offered for the class:
What do these groups have in common? Can we describe their commonalities musically? If so, where did these musical elements come from? Can they be traced or placed in historical context? Can these same elements be found in other contemporary American musical genres such as minimalism, film scores, and orchestral music? Explore how relationships among musical groups, musical styles, and historical musical contexts relate to each other in this seminar that will include listening, writing, and communicating your thoughts with other class members.
Though offered last year and the year before, this course is not available this year.

NIN Spotting.
The new album by the Dillinger Escape Plan came out last week to great reviews, and many of the reviews compare them to Nine Inch Nails. (Bear with me here. Especially you, Travis.) While most of the album keeps to their chaotic hardcore (i.e. all screaming, all the time) roots, check out the track "Phone Home," it's pretty wicked. If you dig it, give the album a shot. As a whole, it's a different direction than the usual stuff you find next to NIN albums. If you can, go to a record store that lets you listen before you buy, or can borrow the disc from a friend - don't just take my word for it.
Also of note, Greg Puciato takes vocal duties for this album - you might remember him from Error. Their previous EP had Mike Patton handling vocals, and included a cover of Aphex Twin's "Come to Daddy." The drummer's reportedly a big fan of NIN & Aphex Twin. Given what I've heard and what I've heard of them, I felt compelled to mention them. Moving on...

Jakalope website updates...
We have had a number of emails about the recent updates to the Jakalope website. We don't want to spoil the fun - if you don't feel like playing around with the site, that's what Flash decompilers are all about - but if you dig around, there are new wallpapers, and a clip of a remix of "Pretty Life," the first single off the album.
Pretty Life has been getting airplay on Canadian radio stations, but if you're not in range of Canadian radio stations, you can hear it as the background music to the Orange Record Label website, home to Jakalope. If you're tricky, you can actually find the directory where they keep the MP3s they stream to the front page.

Korn + Linkin Park = Nine Inch Nails?
Remember when both Korn and AFI were covering Head Like a Hole, but that AFI got their cover out first and word was that Korn were perhaps scrapping their recording? Well, this Blabbermouth report on the October 11 release of Korn's "Greatest Hits" album mentions other songs "recorded for possible inclusion on the CD," including "NINE INCH NAILS' "Head Like A Hole" (featuring a guest appearance by LINKIN PARK's Chester Bennington)."
If you can't wait to hear Chester belt out Nine Inch Nails tunes, it's widely reported that Linkin Park has a thing for covering both Wish and Something I Can Never Have during live performances.

Danny Lohner Spotting
Bracturne wrote in to let us know that "Both Danny Lohner and the artist formally known as Twiggy Ramirez appear the the Metallica documentary 'Some Kind Of Monster'. It was footage of both of them trying out to be the new Metallica bassist from 2 years ago."
Fernando summed a few Danny items up nicely in one email. To wit:
- at mtv.com, in the "quick news on..." it talks about how some upcoming Matt Damon Movie [Wicker Park] will have Danny Lohner and Johnette Napolitano redoing Coldplay's song "The Scientist".
- Blabbermouth reported on Danny Lohner's remixing of A Perfect Circle's entire Thirteenth Step album - his remix of The Outsider can be found on the upcoming Resident Evil: Apocalypse soundtrack, along with Danny's remix of Rob Zombie's Girl on Fire The remix album is due this coming November.

quasar reminded me that I was going to reinstate links via flags to international Nine Inch Nails sites. Looking at my bookmarks though, a good number of those Polish, French, Brazilian, German (and others) sites are no more. Nonetheless, I'm sure there are decent sites out there that are hosted in other countries. If you know of any that you think should be linked from this site, please, email me and let me know. Thanks!

Jakalope Updates - New Single playing in Canada
You may or may not have noticed that the website for Jakalope has made some subtle updates in the last week or two. I only like to spoil so much fun myself, but click around after the timer runs out, and you should find some stuff. If you're into cheating, there's a lot of discussion about what's there and what's not there in this message board thread.
Some of the more evident links pulled from that thread: Jakalope's record label, Orange Records, in Canada rather than the US, has a website, here. Katie B. (who showed up on the nin.com webcam lastnight, among other places -- Hi Katie B!) has a webpage too, right here. On it, she mentions that Jakalope's first single, "Pretty Life," has been released to, well, CFOX in Vancouver. So if you live in or near Vancouver, call CFOX at 1-877-FOX-ROCKS and request Pretty Life by Jakalope.

Last night, around 2am EST, some attentive folks noticed that the nin.com webcam went live again. From the still shots, it was hard to make out what was going on between the studio shots. Generally, people agreed it was Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross at the mixing desk. Someone put together a video of sorts from captures of the webcam, and the "video" makes it a little more clear that someone was drumming on the webcam.
Missed all this? Check out this Echoing the Sound thread for screen caps and discussion on the topic.
Updated ~3pm: On the prior mentioned thread, Whoroscope postulated that it was Dave Grohl smiling into the camera after a drum session. Well, following a post on Perfect Isolation to the official website of The Exies, there is a new Studio Diary entry for 7/9/2004. Here's an excerpt:
7-9-04 Sound City Studios Van Nuys, CA.
Man, I love Fridays at Sound City! Last week, we had a great barbeque with Queens of the Stone Age and this week we come in to see Dave Grohl playing drums for Nine Inch Nails, is that a trip or what?!
Interesting, no?
Dave Grohl Drumming for NIN?
"ScreamingCube" is a fan of a band called The Exies, and noticed the following piece of info in their studio journal from their website:
Man, I love Fridays at Sound City! Last week, we had a great barbeque with Queens of the Stone Age and this week we come in to see Dave Grohl playing drums for Nine Inch Nails, is that a trip or what?! I guess Trent Reznor is going for real drums this time around. Good call, I say. Anyway, enough of the name dropping (sorry, i'm still a huge fan myself!) but it is pretty cool to be around these guys.
Maybe that's who was allegedly drumming on the webcam last night while I was asleep.

That Great NIN Hotline Fund Drive
It's been a couple of years since I've done this, and I hate doing things, but as things are going right now I kind of have to.
Through thick and thin, we've brought you a site chock full of features and news about Nine Inch Nails and related bands and projects, all without having to sell ads or having to push vendors on you. I've given thought to quitting this whole thing many times in the past year, but so many people make such a case for this site to keep going, no matter what the environment.
Our traffic seems to double every year. I think our latest peak was in May, when we took in over four million hits from 91,862 different viewers. Between The Meathead Perspective, the NIN Historian, the News & Article Archives, Halo Ninetynine, Know the Score, our exclusive giveaways and interviews, I think we manage to bring a lot to the table for a fan run site.
What I'm asking you for now, is if you've got $1 to spare... I need some help with the expense of hosting all this stuff. A lot of crap has come up this year that I hadn't planned for.
Anyway, if everyone who visits this site sends in a dollar, that would be insane. If half of you send in a dollar, I will not do another fund drive for years.
If you want to help us out here, paypal a donation to levithnt@nfdc.net , or send something to my home address:

There are also a couple of interviews and a handful of reviews of Error at the press section of Epitaph. They're damn huge PDFs though, so you best have broadband if you want to take a look.

Chuck just started laughing, and explained how David Fincher caled him awhile back and said some financers from the movie were interested in making a Broadway musical, and had contacted him. Chuck then went on to say Fincher explained he had already called Trent Reznor to ask him if he would score it, and he said yes.
This was also reported on Ain't It Cool News and has been discussed on the boards at the official Chuck Palahniuk website.
