== Alternative metal == |
|||
Do you think NIN are alt. metal or is this a stupid question? <span style="color:#003153">'''Thundermaster'''</span><sup>[[User talk:Thundermaster|Thundermaster's Talk]]</sup> 12:37, 3 December 2007 (UTC) |
|||
:Yes. It used to be in the genre list. It definitely should be included, not the least because NIN is considered metal to an extent (hence why this article is under the scope of WikiProject Metal). [[User:WesleyDodds|WesleyDodds]] ([[User talk:WesleyDodds|talk]]) 11:47, 14 December 2007 (UTC) |

::I dunno, I don't really see what's so metally about NIN's music, myself. Though I suppose if a few good sources back it up then my own opinion doesn't really matter. [[User:Drewcifer3000|Drewcifer]] ([[User talk:Drewcifer3000|talk]]) 12:21, 14 December 2007 (UTC) |

:::::: NIN are quite mainstream, but they are like heavy alt. rock aka alternative metal. <span style="color:#003153">'''Thundermaster</span><sup>[[User talk:Thundermaster|T]][[Wikipedia:Editor_review/Thundermaster|R]][[User:Thundermaster|U]][[Special:Contributions/Thundermaster|C]]</sup>''' 14:08, 4 January 2008 (UTC) |
|||
We could debate this ad naseum, but since this is Wikipedia, the important thing is a source. If we find a reliable source that says they're alt metal then fine. Same thing goes for alternative rock, for that matter. What we really should be discussing is which source to go by, since inevitably the souces will disagree slightly with one another. [[User:Drewcifer3000|Drewcifer]] ([[User talk:Drewcifer3000|talk]]) 23:09, 4 January 2008 (UTC) |
|||
:Please stop switching the genres, NIN is clearly Industrial Rock over Alternative Rock. In fact, the opening line says Industrial rock, yet Alternative Rock is on top. [[User:Tribestros|tribestros]] ([[User talk:Tribestros|talk]]) 15:22, 15 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
One more vote here for Industrial Rock. [[User:Bmc152006|Bmc152006]] ([[User talk:Bmc152006|talk]]) 22:36, 13 April 2008 (UTC) |

:I think NIN would be labeled as electronic, experimental, or industrial. It really doesn't fit with the metal genre. <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/75.2.32.93|75.2.32.93]] ([[User talk:75.2.32.93|talk]]) 22:48, 15 April 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |
|||
This isn't an issue of you me or anyone else thinks NIN sounds like, ultimately we need to leave it up to a reliable source. And that said, this source should ultimately be discussing NIN in as broad of a context as possible, since we could quote an article about Ghosts and say NIN is dark ambient, but then we could quote an article about With Teeth and say NIN is Alt. Metal. Or Year Zero and say it's electronic music. We need to find a source or sources that describes the music in general, then attribute the band's genre to that source, rather than voting here for or the other. [[User:Drewcifer3000|Drewcifer]] ([[User talk:Drewcifer3000|talk]]) 22:59, 15 April 2008 (UTC) |

:Just a suggestion - use AMG for genres if there's a dispute. I've seen similar discussions on talk pages for other artists, and it's a good neutral source for that kind of info. [[User:Cpdilkus|dil]] ([[User talk:Cpdilkus|talk]]) 01:17, 16 April 2008 (UTC) |

:AMG lists Industrial as first under "Styles." I am changing the order of the genres to reflect this. -[[Special:Contributions/65.12.134.148|65.12.134.148]] ([[User talk:65.12.134.148|talk]]) 03:33, 8 May 2008 (UTC) |

==Ghosts I-IV== |
|||
I have rewritten the section so that it is almost completely cited. The first paragraph needs to be cited, and the whole thing needs a copyedit. May I remind everyone that this is an [[WP:FA|FA]] quality article, and we need to keep on top of these recent developments so as to not upset this article's status. --'''[[User:Reaper_X|<font color="#000000"> Reaper</font>]] [[User talk:Reaper_X|<font color="#ff0000"> X</font>]]''' 04:49, 5 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
:Not sure if it's a valid enough for citing on an FA but the nin.com posts referenced in the first paragraph are archived [http://ninblogs.wordpress.com/2008/02/16/2-weeks/ here] and [http://ninblogs.wordpress.com/2008/03/02/ghosts-i-iv/ here]. Also the Billboard article already referenced could be used for the second half of the first paragraph. If you want an additional source you could use [http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/extendedplay/2008/03/nine-inch-nails.html The LA Times] <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Jmcbns|Jmcbns]] ([[User talk:Jmcbns|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Jmcbns|contribs]]) 21:55, 5 March 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |
|||
:Seeing as how it's definitely something different (for the band and mainstream music as a whole), I think it may be worth noting that NIN apparently made an official release of Ghosts I on multiple torrent sites, including TPB, under Creative Commons. [http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20080305-reznor-makes-750000-even-when-the-music-is-free.html Here] is one news source referencing the release. I'm not sure if Reznor has said anything to verify it yet, though. If it can be verified enough, though, then it should noted in some fashion probably. [[User:Dfsghjkgfhdg|Dfsghjkgfhdg]] ([[User talk:Dfsghjkgfhdg|talk]]) 02:55, 6 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
==Influence== |
|||
Dunno if it's just me but shouldn't something be included in this section in reference to the way that he has changed the music industry, alongside Radiohead. Not only was With_Teeth the first major studio release to be streamed online in it's entirety before release at Reznor's behest, but there was the whole leaking tracks from Year Zero and the ARG (alternative marketing), the whole Niggy Tardust experiment and now the current Ghosts release, setting a new precedent for online label less releases and his association with torrenting, both his own material and his admittance to using Oink. |
|||
Personally I believe he's done more than anyone to begin breaking the power of labels in the modern day, Radiohead's stunt was just that, a stunt, it was for marketing purposes only and they openly admit to it. Whereas the Ghosts release was always intended for the internet and was intended as a way of proving that artists can survive without labels, which it seems be be doing very well indeed. |

|||
:Seems like it would be an appropriate addition, but with sources of course. But we should be careful of assuming too much has come from this single release: it's only been out a few days, so to say it "changed the music industry" would be really hasty. Nothing at all has changed because of Reznor's experiments, aside from a few albums which he has been directly involved with. [[User:Drewcifer3000|Drewcifer]] ([[User talk:Drewcifer3000|talk]]) 01:56, 8 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
But would this be influence? At least not yet. We should wait a few months to see if any more bands follow NIN's online trend before posting it as an influence. |
|||
== Gary Talapas == |
|||
would anyone happen to have anymore information about [[Gary Talpas]] to add to the page. He is the designer of a few nine inch nails album covers and the nin logo. thanks |
|||

|||
==Year Zero Part 2== |
|||
With the release of Ghosts, many NIN fans assume the Year Zero Pt. 2 is dead. According to Trent Reznor's user profile on Echoing the Sound, teitan, the project is still in the works, and includes "many other elements". The teitan user is in fact Trent Reznor, check with the Echoing the Sound mods if infact you do not believe me. Until then, please do not delete what I write surrounding this. [[User:Tribestros|tribestros]] ([[User talk:tribestros|talk]]) 14:33, 15 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
:Your edits (<small>edit: if you are IP 70.245.71.28</small>) had conjecture regarding "rumors surrounding" the project was dead. I didn't assume that, others may not have as well. It is a broad unsourced statement. I question article integration at this point, because there is nothing material to write about. The second album is still forthcoming. If anything maybe a sourced line in the Ghosts section stating, the Ghosts album was independent of Pt. 2, and did not replace it. [[User:AtaruMoroboshi|AtaruMoroboshi]] ([[User talk:AtaruMoroboshi|talk]]) 19:44, 15 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
::I was using the Nine Inch Nails official fansite Echoing the Sound as my source for fans assuming the project was dead. The general concensus there was that Trent Reznor was dropping the project. [[User:Tribestros|tribestros]] ([[User talk:Tribestros|talk]]) 14:49, 15 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
::: Not withstanding, perhaps we should wait to include when we have more information than "He's doing it." Maybe others can comment so we can get a consensus. Thanks! [[User:AtaruMoroboshi|AtaruMoroboshi]] ([[User talk:AtaruMoroboshi|talk]]) 19:56, 15 March 2008 (UTC) |

==Nine Inch Nails: Band?== |
|||
Nine Inch Nails is most certainly not a band, and I think it is decieving to label NIN as a band on the Wikipedia page. On nearly almost every album booklet except The Fragile, the booklet says NIN is Trent Reznor. I'm not really quite sure what else to put there, but I do believe 'band' should be changed, NIN fits none of the categories. [[User:Tribestros|tribestros]] ([[User talk:Tribestros|talk]]) 15:25, 15 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
: Well, I don't know if it is "deceiving", as you put it, since NIN does tour with a band. Though I do agree a distinction should be made. Take a look at the archived discussion page and see if any consensus appears there, I'm willing to bet this issue has come up before. I also think there may be some other band talk pages that have addressed similar issues. [[User:AtaruMoroboshi|AtaruMoroboshi]] ([[User talk:AtaruMoroboshi|talk]]) 20:38, 15 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
:: As I read the archives, there was one argument over the box. That was it. I'll take a break and try to figure out how to phrase the beginning. [[User:Tribestros|Tribestros]] ([[User talk:Tribestros|talk]]) 20:46, 15 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
::: I believe calling it an ''act'' instead of a band in the opening paragraph solves the issue. Any arguments against it ? ([[User:Fbergo|Fbergo]] ([[User talk:Fbergo|talk]]) 23:01, 16 March 2008 (UTC)) |
|||
:::: No, that's a great idea. I'll change it now. [[User:Tribestros|Tribestros]] ([[User talk:Tribestros|talk]]) 14:27, 17 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
For the sake of clarity and inclusion the lead should acknowledge, that Trent Reznor is a constant, though Nine Inche Nails is commonly referred to as a "band." Nine Inch Nails can still be referred to as an "act", but needs further clarification. [[User:AtaruMoroboshi|AtaruMoroboshi]] ([[User talk:AtaruMoroboshi|talk]]) 15:26, 17 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
: In nearly every booklet, the headline states 'NIN is Trent Reznor'. The Fragile has a few other musicians, but the only reason NIN is ever considered a band is because it seems easier. [[User:Tribestros|Tribestros]] ([[User talk:Tribestros|talk]]) 21:05, 17 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
:: I disagree that the 'only reason' anyone would consider it a band is because 'it's easier.' It more has to do with the fact that a) Live performances are done with a band, and b) There are countless NIN music videos that feature live performances or depict a band. I can name NIN music videos from every album up to Year Zero that feature a band (most recently survivalism comes to mind). This is not to say I personally considered NIN a "band", I don't. But proper weight should be given to specifically delineate that there is a band in multiple iterations that has appeared in music videos, and performed live. Despite our obvious interest in NIN, the casual non-discerning fan who may only be familiar with closer, is none the wiser. As I said before, it should be further clarified. [[User:AtaruMoroboshi|AtaruMoroboshi]] ([[User talk:AtaruMoroboshi|talk]]) 02:25, 18 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
:::I think you'll find that ''Pretty Hate Machine'' is the only release that claims "Nine Inch Nails is Trent Reznor." Besides, it's generally understood that "band" in the context of music means the identity of a musical entity, that is, the identity under which records are released, tours are booked, etc. Thus, it's appropriate to call Nine Inch Nails a band; particularly since Reznor has made the distinction between NIN's music and Trent Reznor's music on the [[Lost Highway (soundtrack)|''Lost Highway'' soundtrack]]. - [[User:Rynne|rynne]] ([[User talk:Rynne|talk]]) 20:18, 19 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
::::Sorry to sound smug, but as I look at Year Zero, The Downward Spiral, and Broken's booklet, this line jumps out at me: "Written and Performed by Trent Reznor." [[User:Tribestros|Tribestros]] ([[User talk:Tribestros|talk]]) 00:48, 22 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
:::::Which, unless I'm reading wrong, isn't "Nine Inch Nails is Trent Reznor." Semantics aside, I don't think there's any reason to claim that NIN is ''equivalent'' to Trent Reznor or that this article should use some non-standard nomenclature to talk about NIN. -- [[User:Rynne|rynne]] ([[User talk:Rynne|talk]]) 19:11, 24 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
::Trent himself regularly (in interviews, onstage, etc.) refers to "my '''band''', Nine Inch Nails" as a separate entity from himself. Add to this the synonymous way the article's prose interchanges "NIN", "Nine Inch Nails" and "the band" without problem and we have a longstanding consensus that NIN is a band. [[User:BotleySmith|BotleySmith]] ([[User talk:BotleySmith|talk]]) 20:14, 24 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
:::Well, I need to find the article, but Trent has claimed that the only reason he refers to NIN as his band because he doesn't want to be counted as a solo project, because he's not a big fan of solo artists.

My local rock station (102.1 Milwaukee's Alternative) is going to be playing it tonight. They said that yesterday night Trent's "manager" (does he even have one?) called them and told them that it would be arriving, and today they recieved the single via e-mail. Also, Trent wishes to make the single free--and thus will release it for free download tomorrow afternoon. I don't know if this helps or not, but I thought it'd be an interesting bit of info. |

== Featured Topic == |
|||
So I have noticed alot of work going into some of the later Nine Inch Nails stuff lately, and it led me to think: what if we made Nine Inch Nails a featured topic? Let's review what we have: |
|||

|||

|||
|- |
|||
|[[WP:FT?]] presents the following requirements: |
|||
#It is a '''set of similar, interrelated articles that cover a specific topic''' |
|||
#:(a) There are '''at least three distinct articles'''. {{Done}} |
|||
#:(b) The articles have a '''clear similarity''' with each other under a well-defined topical scope. {{Done}} |
|||
#:(c) All articles in the topic are '''linked together''', preferably using a template, and share a common category or super-category. {{Done}} |
|||
#:(d) There is '''no obvious gap''' (missing or stub article) in the topic. A topic must not [[cherry picking|cherry pick]] only the best articles to become featured together. {{Done}} |

#The topic has an introductory and summary '''lead article''' or '''list'''. {{Done}} |
|||
#Each article is of '''high quality''', including references. {{Not done}} |

#:(a) A number of articles are featured class ([[Wikipedia:featured articles|featured articles]] or [[Wikipedia:featured lists|featured lists]]), according to the following rules: |

#:(b) All other articles are [[Wikipedia:Good articles|good articles]]. {{Not done}} |

|||
|} |
|||
---- |
|||
So the only criteria we haven't met are 3(a) which will be met if Year Zero passes it's FAC, and possibly 1(d). Now as for that, do you think that we could have a "gap" because we have included NIN's two latest major studio releases, but nothing before it? In that case, I think [[With Teeth]] and [[The Downward Spiral]] are in good shape to tackle, and [[Pretty Hate Machine]] would need major work poured into it.

::::I made some suggestions for improvements on the Pretty Hate Machine and The Fragile talk pages. I'd recommend taking the time to take these article by article, working collectively to bring them up to Good article status, and then working on either the Trent or Year Zero article enough to bring at least one of them up to FA status. It might take quite a long time but I definitely think it's possible. --[[User:Ubiq|Ubiq]] ([[User talk:Ubiq|talk]]) 18:14, 26 April 2008 (UTC) |

:::::Yea, I knew it would take some time, but I just thought it was a neat idea to bring to everyones attention, especially seeing as there is only 14 Arts FT's. --'''[[User:Reaper_X|<font color="#000000"> Reaper</font>]] [[User talk:Reaper_X|<font color="#ff0000"> X</font>]]''' 21:36, 26 April 2008 (UTC) |
