Week 11

I'm a huge NIN fan and have been listening to some of their older stuff again so I thought I'd chuck in a few remixes of thiers this week as they are kinda similar to the other songs.  I'll probably have to do a series of NIN favourites on their own some time.  And a lot probably wouldn't be what you'd expect (like the ones below).


Genitorturers - Confessions of a Blackheart
Loved Genitorturers since I heard 120 Days of Genitorture (A great industrial styled album).  They did a fantastic job on this.  Not as industrial but lovely heavy and full sound to it.




Scum of the Earth - Dance Motherfucker
Had no idea that Riggs had been doing this since he left Rob Zombie's solo band.  A wise move in my opinion.  This album is more reminiscent of Zombie's remix albums thann the original stuff but that's not a bad thing.  This is heavy stuff!

Scum of the Earth - The Devil Made Me Do It 3
Another heavy dubstepish one.  Sometimes the simple tunes are the best.

Nine inch Nails - Heresy (Version)
The last great remix album by NIN for me.  I actually prefer this version of Heresy over the original.  I know, sacriledge.  I think the Charlie Clouser remixes are my favourite out of all of NIN's remixeswith Coil's a close second.

Nine Inch Nails - Gave Up (Fixed remix)
I love just how disjointed Trent's singing is in this.  A lot of it is just vowel sounds that make no sense at all.  with the chorus that's pretty normal.  It's awesome.  I used to listen to this almost every morning going to a jobcentre training course.  The whole thing should be unlistenable rubbish (the Happiness in Slavery remixes are more disjointed in every aspect than this) but it just works.  I remember Trent saying that Broken was done at an unhappy time with the label and they wanted to do something that was just unlistenable.  I think he created an awesome album/EP (whatever you want to call it) but this remix album really was the next step in thinking that way.

Week 10

Another week flies by and here's another set of tunes.  I decided a few weeks ago that as I'd probably be listening to these around this time that I might as well post them.  In a way I've been dreading this post but it's been good.

This time of year is usually a gamut of emotions for me so here's a set of very personal songs to me.  Not going to say why as you'll kinda get an idea from the songs themselves.  All I will say is that the last one was perfect for me in almost every aspect of it.  Still is but to a much lesser degree nowadays.



Marilyn Manson - Man That You Fear



Christina Aguilera - Fighter



Christina Aguilera - Beautiful






Alice In Chains - Down In A Hole (Unplugged)



The Cure - Burn






Steam Powered Giraffe - Honeybee



Steam Powered Giraffe - Malfunction



Nine Inch Nails - The Becoming (Still)
