Nine Inch Nails, R.E.M., Pearl Jam Join Campaign to Close Guantanamo

Posted by Sara Harowitz on October 23rd, 2009

NINA group of musicians joined a campaign on Tuesday that asks the Obama administration to close down the terror suspect camp at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, reports MTV News.

The musicians are all angered after hearing that their songs are reportedly being blasted at ear-bleeding levels in an attempt to break uncooperative terror suspects. Artists including Nine Inch Nails, R.E.M., Pearl Jam, Rage Against the Machine, Steve Earle, Billy Bragg, and Rosanne Cash have announced their support for the National Campaign to Close Guantanamo.

Part of the effort entails the National Security Archive in Washington, D.C. filing a Freedom of Information Act request. This is in an effort to uncover classified records that prove the use of loud music as a means of interrogation. A report by the Senate Armed Services Committee in November, 2008 makes reference to the use of loud music to unhinge terror suspects. One instance involved the case of a Mauritanian prisoner who was allegedly blasted with songs such as Drowning Pool’s “Bodies” to cause him stress because he believed that listening to music was forbidden. Drowning Pool has apparently so far not objected to the use of its music at Guantanamo Bay or other U.S. detention sites.

Some of the songs reportedly played at high volumes close to the prisoners at the camp are Metallica’s “Enter Sandman,” Don McLean’s “American Pie,” Bruce Springsteen’s “Born in the U.S.A.,” Nine Inch Nails’ “March of the Pigs,” Queen’s “We Will Rock You,” the Meow Mix cat food jingle, music from Sesame Street, the “I Love You” song from Barney, as well as songs by R.E.M., Pearl Jam, AC/DC, Britney Spears, Marilyn Manson, the Bee Gees, and more.

Trent Reznor Plays April Fools on Fans

Posted by Jennifer Brooks on April 3rd, 2009

Trent ReznorA few weeks back Trent Reznor took to his Twitter account to express his discontent for Chris Cornell’s pop inspired new sound. He wrote: “You know that feeling you get when somebody embarrasses themselves so badly YOU feel uncomfortable? Heard Chris Cornell’s record? Jesus.”

Although Reznor is not a fan of Cornell’s new Timbalake produced material, he was however, inspired by Cornell’s new album to pull an April fool’s prank on the public.

Reznor took to the Nine Inch Nails website yesterday (Wednesday) to announce that they have released a new album entitled “Strobe Light.” It was written that the joke disc was produced by Timbaland (a dig at Cornell’s recent crossover) and features songs such as “Clap Trap Crack Slap” and “Laid, Paid and Played.”

Nine Inch Nails To Disband

Posted by Ilan Mester on February 19th, 2009

There’s good news and bad news for NIN fans. Good news is Nine Inch Nail’s Trent Reznor has confirmed the band will go on tour with Jane’s Addiction according to a post on the NIN website. The bad news is that same post says it will likely be the last time NIN goes on tour.

“After some thought, we decided to book a last run of shows across the globe this year,” Reznor wrote in the post. “The approach to these shows is quite different from last year – much more raw, spontaneous and less scripted.”

In the post, Reznor also revealed that Nine Inch Nails has been recording in the same studio with Jane’s Addiction. However, he did not say if these collaborations are due for release, or are meant to be played during their upcoming tour.

“Emails were sent, phone calls were made, dinner was arranged, ideas were discussed and the next thing I know we’re in the studio experimenting,” Reznor continued in the post.

Nine Inch Nails Quit MTV Awards Over George Bush

Posted by Adam Gonshor on May 29th, 2005


Nine Inch Nails will not be performing at the MTV Movie Awards as planned.

The band pulled out when MTV refused to allow them to display a photo of George W. Bush behind them while performing their song, “The Hand that Feeds.”

“While we respect Nine Inch Nails’ point of view, we were uncomfortable with their performance being built around a partisan political statement,” the network said in a statement. “When we discussed our discomfort with the band, their choice was to unfortunately pull out of the Movie Awards.”

Nine Inch Nails, led by frontman Trent Reznor, wanted an unedited picture of the president in the backdrop.

Reznor wrote on the band’s web site that they wanted to perform in front of an “unmolested, straightforward image of George W. Bush.

“Apparently, the image of our president is as offensive to MTV as it is to me. See you on tour this fall when we return to play in America.”

The Foo Fighters will fill their spot. Eminem and Mariah Carey are also scheduled to perform at the award show on June 9.
