Why did trent choose that name? Is it a reference to jesus christ and the cross?
Its because hes a flamer

Reznor said in 1994 that he coined the name "Nine Inch Nails" because it "abbreviated easily", rather than for "any literal meaning". Other rumored explanations have circulated, alleging that Reznor chose to reference Jesus' crucifixion with nine-inch spikes, or Freddy Krueger's nine-inch fingernails. Reznor and Gary Talpas designed the Nine Inch Nails logo, which consists of the letters "NIN" set inside a border with the second "N" mirrored. The logo first appeared on NIN's debut, "Down in It", and was inspired by Tibor Kalman's typography on the Talking Heads album Remain in Light. Talpas, a native of Cleveland, would continue to design NIN packaging art until 1997.[18]

Help me you make me perfect, help me become somebody else

NIN is like Green day is in the punk scene but in the industrial scene.

Fun times with Trent.
Spend the day with us: Watch this 2500 times.
The catchy tune playing in the background
Yeah. And apparently Tool feature on the doom 3 soundtrack, but that's a rumour which hasn't been denied or confirmed.DonFck wrote:

lol. you know what i meant, doom/quake. its all the same
Nine Inch Nails are awesome. They're the only band I've ever traveled to another country to to see play live (although I'm going to England to see Stanley Clarke next month). I also caught them when they played Dublin last year too. I should be getting my Ghosts album in the post soon!
I'd say the biblical thing had a part to play in the choice of name...he does like to sing about God every now and again (not in a positive way).
Has anyone else ever watched the film he made to go along with the Broken EP? He got in a bit of trouble over it years ago when the FBI thought parts of it were taken from an actual snuff movie! It was completely banned for years but I think most of it is available in segments on YouTube now.

"Staring at the sea
Will she come?
Is there hope for me
After all is said and done
Anything at any price
All of this for you
All the spoils of a wasted life
All of this for you
All the world has closed her eyes
Tired faith all worn and thin
For all we could have done
And all that could have been
Ocean pulls me close
And whispers in my ear
The destiny Ive chose
All becoming clear
The currents have their say
The time is drawing near
Washes me away
Makes me disappear
I descend from grace
In arms of underflow
I will take my place
In the great below
I can still feel you
Even so far away
"

Alot of really anti religion in the downward spiral....but there are other songs which lyrics.....and sounds which make you wonder. trent was raised a christian?

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP
Nine Inch Nails so many good songs I just can't pick a favorite. The videos are great.
One of my favorites March of the Pigs
