Nine Inch Nails "Woodstock '94" (Full Concert)
Essentially a one-man band, Nine Inch Nails is undoubtedly the greatest industrial band ever. That one man is Trent Reznor, a Cleveland native who uses synthesizers and various electronic devices to make songs that replicate the sound of rhythmic steel mills and metal-fabrication plants with lyrics that delve into the human condition in typically not-so-comfortable ways. NIN has produced some commercial hits, but it remains a cult band more than anything. People who are into it are really, really into it. One of those superfans is my sister, Emily. Nine Inch Nails has been her favorite band for decades, and she has seen it in concert many, many times. Today is her 42nd birthday.
