| [composers] is trent reznor a genius?
i'm kinda non plussed about this guy. every thing he does seems to be amazing but i don't like calling people a genius for no reason. he seems to live in the outer realms. do you think he is?

Closer is the sex! Always had a soft spot for Hurt. Pisses me off when people think it's a Johnny Cash effort  Ruiner is a great track to listen to while doin the housework, really gets you goin! Altho sayin that Hand that feeds will always be my drunk party song!

lol i've had too many conversations about hurt trying to tell country fans that it's not a cash song. i love ruiner! just because of the idea. you know it's about women who went out with me yeah? or maybe it's just about women in general probably you

I heard 'Survivalism' off the new album and had to turn it off for laughing.
I don't think he even tries anymore. | |

His work from Pretty hate machine up to The Fragile i would consider genius, after that as Mark says he's not really trying, barr a few songs from With Teeth which are awesome.

Not spent enough time with the new stuff to form an opinion as yet. Couple of good ones on With Teeth but disappointing on the whole. Gutted at missing them at the Carling tho.
