NIN Collab?

[starcell 379]

Yesterday was a really exciting day for NIN fans who love Gaga…the fact she talked about meeting Trent multiple times (seemingly on good terms), and conveniently releasing the prerecorded video of her meeting the contest winners while wearing a NIN sweater the same day as the interview. The cherry on top was Trent himself liking an Instagram post reporting how she “blacks out” every time she’s in “his presence”. For context, this is Trent’s personal account he uses, not the NIN account, and he’s kind of not a huge social media guy. Most of the users in the NIN subreddit are also really receptive to this idea and welcome it.
 

Other things are obviously the NIN influence on Mayhem (as a huge fan of all of Trent’s work, I heard the influence in Disease, Garden of Eden (also NINE INCH HEELS!), Perfect Celebrity, Can’t Stop the High, Killah), Gaga radio having 3 NIN songs, her stylist(?)(I forgot who) sharing a photoshoot of her last year on insta stories using Closer as the bg music,  and coincidentally, the creative team behind Mayhem visuals are also working with NIN, the latest work being the tour promotion. 
 

We knew for many years she was a fan based on her MySpace, but her talking even briefly about it AND wearing the sweater has made me super giddy! I really hope a collaboration of some kind is in the works or might come to fruition. A remixed song, new songs for a deluxe/EP to Mayhem, anything really. Personally would love Trent’s hand industrial-izing one of the Mayhem songs that don’t go as edgy as Disease; maybe Killah or Zombieboy. 
 

So am I peak delulu right now, is anyone else hoping for this, and what do you think the odds could be? How do we make this happen!? 😂😭

I’ve said this for ages. NIN/Trent is one of my all-time favorite artists. Before Trent and Atticus did Halsey’s record, I would’ve loved if Gaga had been the first pop girl they worked  with. It’s was rumored a while back as well but it never amounted to anything. I mentioned it during the ARTPOP era and everyone thought I was ****ing crazy, or people had no idea who tf Trent or NIN was back on this forum. I’m happy more fans are more receptive to it now.

It's my #1 dream collaboration. Trent has been doing so much work producing different projects recently, it just felt like a perfect match made in hell, and I was wicked hopeful they would have gotten together for something on Mayhem. Especially with what he did for Halsey and winning awards for Challengers, it shows how powerful this man can be when dabbling in the dark forces of poetry and pop music.

 

Since it didn't happen for LG7, I'll cross my fingers and toes again for the possibility of it happening on LG8, or perhaps LG7.5.

This is my dream !!!! I love NIN and Trent's production is so distinct and amazing. Based on Disease and Perfect Celebrity I think they can create my new fave song of all time if they worked together.

I kinda want a sound more of How to Destroy Angels

They would synergize so well together. 

I'm so glad their paths have crossed. Both of them are so talented and are so dedicated to their craft

we already have "im falling over in my nine. inch. heels. COME ON."

[Murakami27 3,169]

Trent is hot so yes

I think this is bound to happen at some point. MAYHEM would low-key have been the perfect project, but we might not know everything. I guess we’ll see.

PLEASE GAGA I BEG

[Ziggy Stardust 89]

This would literally end me! 
btw. I’m seeing NIN live for the 4th time this June in Vienna. I simply adore Trent. And the two of them collaborating would be a dream come true.

A reznor remix for the inevitably Dawn of Mayhem would be incredible.
