Twinaleblood Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Hi people, I don't know the right section to post this thread, hence I'm putting it here so that more users will be able to read it.Mods of course can move it if they think this isn't the place.So, we know that Axl back in the early 90s used to like NIN a lot (and he called them to open some european shows in 1991), butdoes anyone remember if he's ever publicly spoken about their music/about Reznor?I need to know this for a project I'm currently working on, so any kind of help (especially if you can provide a link with the source, either a transcribed magazine interview or a video interview from youtube would do the trick) would be really appreciated.Thanks a lot in advance.

Rovim Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 He did. Talked about how he wanted Trent to cover a Gn'R song. 'Do anything, do Estranged'.I'm too lazy to find it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinaleblood Posted December 6, 2010 Author Share Posted December 6, 2010 Oh yeah, now that you tell me I remember, I read that somewhere and I think I can even track the source. Thank you for reminding me!Does anybody remember other quotes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Do anything, do Estranged'.I'm too lazy to find it though.I think it was in Rolling Stone, the one where he talks about being abused as a kid, 1992.

Izzyslash Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Trent is the only man alive that could make Estranged an even better song.I seriously doubt that! Unless he gets Axl on vocals and Slash on guitar, which would make it just another version of GNR. Slash owns that song, probably the best written and played leadguitar of all time. That's why Axl nods a personal thanks to Slash for making this song what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nintari Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 (edited) Trent has pretty much spent the entire decade trashing Axl every chance he can get. The things he's said make Slash seem like Mr. Rodgers by comparison. I doubt Axl thinks highly of him anymore.

I've listened a lot to NIN and other Reznor-projects, and also seen them live a few times, so I know what he is capable of. To bad he hasn't done anything worth a dime since The Fragile.

Nintari Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 The Slip, Year Zero...that's all good stuff, but NOTHING compared to the two disc concept epic The Fragile. That album is like NIN's The Wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinaleblood Posted December 7, 2010 Author Share Posted December 7, 2010 Yeah, but don't go OT so much or this thread will be locked.I mean, I know Reznor has bashed Robin for working with Axl and all, but it's not the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To bad he hasn't done anything worth a dime since The Fragile.I agree, Trent has been releasing the same shit over and over since The Fragile. I mean, the first three albums are really awesome, but after that it gets old pretty quick, With Teeth, Year Zero, The slip... very bad albums (not sure if you can consider the slip an album anyway).Other than that, it would be funny to hear him cover any GNR stuff because his guitar abilities are very reduced compared to say, Izzy or Slash or whoever guitarist GNR had, and his voice range is very limited as well, so I guess he could make a mean version of Estranged of his own, in his own universe, with his limited musical abilities. I'd like to hear it, cos he could maybe simplify some GNR songs which could become more mainstream and accessible to the nowadays average teenager listeners who has been given shit to listen on radio like Kings of Leon, Green Day, U2... you know the usual very reduced mainstream stuff, so maybe Trent could be the missing link between the good quality music and the mainstream music, I really see him as a humble musician with minimal effects but that comes up with good music so he could do some interesting stuff with gnr stuff.

jekylhyde Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 (edited) Trent couldn't make Estranged better, no one could. But he is really talented, more than Axl. Yes, Trent's vocal range isn't that broad and he isn't the best guitarist, but his song-writing abilities are amazing. And he releases music on a regular basis, which to me counts for something. Some of it is good and some of it is bad, but you can't always make hits like closer and hurt or welcome to the jungle and november rain.

Young_Gun Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Trent is the only man alive that could make Estranged an even better song.Hahahahaha yeh right man. Given that Johnny Cash(who was over 70 at the time) made Hurt much much much better then the NIN version, i highly doubt Trent could make Estranged better, its dam near perfect.

Substitute Axl for Trent in there and Chinese Democracy for the Fragile and you are spot on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
