It's so funny to hear people label him such an innovative genius when he ripped off Skinny Puppy's sound so much that Trent's song Down In It was actually Skinny Puppy's Dig It, ripped off Skinny Puppy's stage presences (mud on the body and face) presentation and even Manson did the same with the bandages around the ribcage and walking on stilts.
While he "incorporated" most of these ripped off sounds on Pretty Hate Machine, he still continued to look like the lead singer of skinny puppy and do his stage acts to the point now that stupid people that see a skinny puppy live video for the first time claim "Reznor rip off" when it's the other way around.
Why can't all of you so called lover of creative people listen to the original instead of the copycat? It would at least make you look less stupid.
Here is a start
(Ahh yes, both are animal rights activists umm right Trent.)
Skinny Puppy is still around making brilliant music as they have a new Cd called Mythmaker. Go to myspace and search for skinny puppy and you tube has plenty of videos and live shows to show you why Reznor would rip off such brilliance.
Never was, their new stuff is way different than the old stuff. If you want to get a better picture of what their newer stuff sounds like, Ohgr's solo album is alot like Skinny Puppy's album. It's catchy but not half assed like Trent's new releases. Trent ran out of ideas to copy. Manson was Trent's karma for being such an asshole.
