Everything just seems so out of control. The US seems to be tearing itself apart. The world is on fire. We seem to be going backwards when it comes to freedom and human rights. We've turned our backs on each other. How do you cope with all this without just giving up?

Favorite band?

Gotta be Nine Inch Nails! I've seen them twice and now Atticus is officially part of NIN with Trent they count as a proper band rather than a solo artist! ;)

Skimmed through their 2020 stuff, what is going on there? It's like 2 hours of intros it feels like.

Ooooh yeah don't bother with Ghosts. He's been going for ~40yrs and his Ghosts stuff is more like his creative common free music he gives to people.

I started on With Teeth album but his top albums are often considered to be Downward Spiral and Fragile.

If I was you I'd listen to Downward Spiral, the Fragile then With Teeth. After that maybe try Pretty Hate Machine which is slightly more dark-poppy-shynth-wave.

Quicker song video tasters:

I'll stop now otherwise I'll be posting the entire back catalogue! :D

I think I oghtta give them a proper go. Always liked their hits, and bands typically have way better shit than the radio has time for. Thanks for answering.
