I've never played a CoD game in my entire life, and hey it's better than just a still of the album cover I guess.

But I was 3 years old when this album came out.

Post by: ToxicAdam on March 10, 2014, 10:49:00 PM: Even though I saw them twice in concert (and they are great live), I was never really a huge fan. Trent's vocals are weak and he always overproduced most of his music and stripped it's of it's soul. The guitars were just background noise and not the drive shafts of the song.

I felt their penultimate song was 'Burn' off the Natural Born Killers soundtrack. Everything great about NiN is all in that song. It felt raw, unhinged and menacing.

That isn't what penultimate means.

Same, opening night no less. Bowie mostly played stuff off his new at the time LP Outside which had yet to be released and since this was pre-widespread net/filesharing nobody knew most of the stuff he was performing.

That's my favorite tune of his and also probably the most cliched industrial-y thing he's ever done. :lol
