In this episode, Clare and Cheya discuss March of the Pigs, the first single off of the landmark NIN album Downward Spiral.

Listen in as Cheya performs interpretive dance, Clare illuminates a Midwestern vice, and the similarities between Trent and Björk keep stacking up. This week we also recorded on Periscope where we fielded some live comments. (Sadly the Periscope feeds expire after 24 hours so you have to tune in next time.)

Here's a screen grab from our Periscope during the moment that we first heard Skinny Puppy:

Fixed (Halo 06)

This week we switched up the format a bit and decided to discuss the album in real time (rather than listen ahead of time and make bullet points of things to talk about.) Things get weird.

We discuss doing drugs at Disney Land while Oliver trifles through paper bags in the background; Clare does a Imprezion to Wish; Cheya & Clare read Amazon reviews for the album Fixed; discuss two video games!

Broken (Halo 05)

In this episode, Clare and Cheya discuss the most aggressive album by NIN. We introduce new characters, develop an unfounded grudge, and get duped into watching a snuff film. We also check in with our favorite Icelander. How exciting!

Head Like a Hole (Halo 03) & Sin (Halo 04)

On tonight's episode we discuss TWO halos, for the price of one: Head Like a Hole & Sin. 

We also bring up a new idea for the fans to be called (RezNerds?!), we have a new Imprezion & a Super Mario Bros villain gets a little shout out!

Pretty Hate Machine (Halo 02)

This week we get into a full length album & discuss Pretty Hate Machine! We also hear Imprezions, How Much Angst and a new segment... (which is a surprise!) Cheya even cooked up a couple new sound drops for your listening pleasure. 

Learn a little bit about who Trent recorded with in the early days, and about him going on tour to promote this album & how the first taste of fame felt "overwhelming." Also hear excerpts from Louder Than Hell and an early interview Trent did with (some idiot on) MTV to promote his album.

Below: Oli sleeps on Cheya's guitar case & we drink our liquid courage out of a cup that seems a little in line with the theme of the album we discuss. 

And! As mentioned, here is the photo of Bowie & Björk, along with a photo of Bowie and Trent (from a video that we'll discuss further down the road), because why not? They're all adorable and Bowie deserves a mention all the time!

If you're asking yourself why we included a photo of Björk to this week's blog post then you'll have to give this episode a listen to find out.

Down In It (Halo 01)

In the first episode of Trent Talk, we delve into the first Halo, which is a single for Down in It. We also get a taste of a couple of our favorite segments, including Imprezions & How Much Angst.

Learn a little bit about what got Cheya & Clare into NIN in the first place, and get some info on the man of the hour, Trent Reznor, as we briefly describe his life before he became the front man of one of the most influential bands of all time.
