When I Say I Want Band Merch This Is What I Mean

Another interesting read!

Kerrang! [December 11th, 1999]

Nobody ever talks about how fucking boring being chronically ill and disabled is. I'm so grateful to the nin community for giving me space to share stuff with and fill the time (hence the relentless posting). Here's Trent doing something I don't understand but can't stop watching x

Hey guys I'm looking for the interview where Trent described the making of the into the void music vid and how boring it was lol no particular reason I'm just completely unable to find it and it's making me a little crazy if you have any ideas I'd be really grateful. I thought it was when he hosted rage but I can't seem to find it

I like older band fan pages because I never know if I'm talking to an og fan that is 60yrs old or a 15 year old but they all thirst the same and I think that's beautiful

holy shit i found it

tw: flashing lights

I love how my flavour of autism makes me feel like a piece of shit for getting excited about my interests and sharing them with friends... like bro we are all massive nerds keep calm post more pictures of Trent Reznor

TW suicide and depression please let me know if these posts are annoying or anything like that I'm just hoping to share some stuff so other people know they are not alone in this

Anybody who has been depressed or suicidal probably understands the feeling of being completely alone in a room full of "friends" that cannot possibly understand what is happening to you. In my case it was because I was so young when I started feeling this way. The growing up too fast, the adults that don't believe you are struggling or in pain because you are so small. I had my 1st asthmatic brush with death as a child and had nobody who could relate, no Internet to look for like minded individuals and a shitty dad who did understand but was too mentally absent to care. I was the weird undiagnosed autistic kid with joint pain. Sorry to get weird and personal but now as an adult I have been able to find solace in music especially Nine Inch Nails. My pain is very different to Trents but I think every one that has stared into the void has something in common. I know now because of people like him that it is possible to become better and I'm so grateful to every artist that have shared their pain with us and formed communities of 'others'

Eventually I discovered that pushing down these emotions will only lead to one place. I will not go.

I love this shoot, the contrast of the vulnerability of his pose against the cold harsh stone and roughed up clothes. There's so much going on but it's incredibly simplistic at the same time

I haven't seen anyone post the full set (or at least most of it). So here it is.
