Nailed

While we work on getting a new computer and taking care of business before getting into the next halos, we decided to throw up an episode of  Nailed Even Deeper from our Patreon feed! The Crow (1994)--the film that gothpilled a million youths. Its soundtrack was one of those iconic records that could change the course of your life. In Jessica's case, it likely did. In addition to many other cool a...

Here's a preview clip of our first part in a miniseries about Reznor and Bowie -- a collab for the ages! For the full episode and at least 15 other bonus episodes of Nailed Even Deeper (where we go beyond the halos), subscribe to our Patreon at  https://www.patreon.com/nailedpod  ! Thanks!

Halo number nine from Nine Inch Nails! Thought we'd be stuck in eight forever. Ok, we went a little long for a single. But hey, it's a maxi-single. It's long. And there was a lot to talk about! And we were feeling a little goofy! Feat. the return of Dick the Stripper / Sugar & His Friend. Please forgive any audio issues. Tough to edit while we're between computers. Thanks so much for your supp...

We go further down the Spiral with Side 3 of 4: I Do Not Want This, Big Man With A Gun, A Warm Place, and Eraser. There's no denying it. This is the darkest we've gone yet with our TDS mini series. Shit. Gets. Real. Obviously, difficult and potentially triggering subject matter is discussed throughout. We bring our usual charm, though.  Also: BIG MAN WITH A GUN DEBATE SETTLED ONCE AND FOR ALL! (or...

WELCOME BACK! We continue our breakdown of The Downward Spiral with Side 2 of 4: Closer, Ruiner, and The Becoming. Three absolute bangers. One of which is a top song of all time. Join us as we tell stories and get super deep into these tracks (an even deeper discussion of Closer will happen on Halo 9). As always, we delve into audio stems and explore Trent Reznor's process beyond a reasonable leve...

Important announcements! We'll be right back, piggies! Also: world premiere of Blake's mashup. And YES, I'm aware that "seed 9" already did a Burn/The Big Come Down mashup for the Strobe Light thing in 2019, but I wasn't aware of that until halfway through making mine. So I respectfully submit my own take on it. Hope you enjoy. Subscribe to our Patreon  to get non-halo bonus episodes, join our Dis...

PATREON PREVIEW: We're calling this "Odds 'ᴎ' Ends '88-'94" -- everything that happened between NIN's formation and the beginning of the TDS era that we haven't yet discussed.

It's Nine Inch Nails' very first remix album: Fixed (1992). Witness the complete deconstruction and destruction of the Broken EP. Featuring a bonus remix by Butch Vig! We thought this would be a very hard one to do, and didn't think we'd have any fun. But you know what, halo 6 turned out to be better than either of us remembered...and maybe better than most give it credit for? Subscribe to our Pat...

BOW DOWN BEFORE THE ONE YOU SERVE! This week we tear into Pretty Hate Machine's second single, and one of Nine Inch Nails' most well-known songs. That's right, we're talking about the 12-inch club remix album that is Head Like A Hole! A handful of very similar HLAH mixes (and one wild re-imagining on the UK release). Some Terrible Lie remixes. And the Down In It mixes again, for good measure, depe...

In this episode we go deep into Nine Inch Nails' second halo (and first LP), 1989's Pretty Hate Machine! We're proud to present our first "full-lengther," and we hope you all enjoy taking the ride with us.
