Nine Inch Nails; it is said to be the nine-inch nails used to nail Jesus Christ.
A name that might fit more with the deflated Marilyn Manson than with T-Rez's band, which has never shown much regard for organized religion.
As for the rest, eh eh...
Starting from the clunky 'Pretty Hate Machine' to the magnificent 'Downward Spiral' of the blessed consecration, culminating in the grand and anguished peak, soaked in tears and sweat and blood of 'The Fragile' (with the live counterpart 'And all that could have been'), leaving us satisfied almost like after a perfect orgasm.
Listening to them in a row.
There was a slight fading both in discography (the various bland episodes and the mannerism of Ghost) and a great career as a composer.
Impossible not to love T-Rez.
