Last week I chose a Rob Zombie song for Halloween. I wanted to keep the wave of "evil disco" (aka industrial) music going. Today I'm featuring one of the many rockin' -est songs by Nine Inch Nails: March of the Pigs. The first time I heard this song I was blown away by the drums line. You'll see what I mean!
Check it out:

by NIN
step right up,
march,
push,
crawl right up on your knees,
please,
greed,
feed,
(no time to hesitate)
I want a little bit,
I want a piece of it,
I think he's losing it,
I want to watch it come down,
don't like the look of it,
don't like the taste of it,
don't like the smell of it,
I want to watch it come down.
all the pigs are all lined up,
I give you all that you want,
take the skin and peel it back,
now doesn't it make you feel better?
shove it up inside,
surprise,
lies,
stains like the blood on your teeth,
bite,
chew,
suck,
(away the tender parts)
I want to break it up,
I want to smash it up,
I want to fuck it up,
I want to watch it come down.
make me afraid of it,
let's discredit it,
let's pick away at it,
I want to watch it come down.
all the pigs are all lined up,
I give you all that you want,
take the skin and peel it back,
and doesn't it make you feel better?
the pigs have won tonight,
now they can all sleep soundly,
and everything is all right.

That's a REALLY messed up drum beat !!!
I'm pretty sure they simply dubbed those drumlines electronically. I can't imagine someone coming up with that beat on a traditional drum set!
Shit. This was supposed to post at 4:45 PM. OOps.
Trent Reznor composes all teh music alone, so I have no doubt that the drums were looped and spliced. Not too many human brains would come up with something so unusual. It's a blast to play, nonetheless!
And how are you doing, Heff?
"Post Options" has been screwing me, too, lol !
