There's a new news article on NIN in Addicted to Noise
(http://www.addictedtonoise.com).. It talks mainly about the recent fuckups
involving magazines using Blackrose's page as a source, but it also talks
about the TPD video a bit, and also says that Chris Vrenna is no longer part
of NIN, and has gone to work with the Smashing Pumpkins as a
programmer/mixer/techie guy.

The Truth About Nine Inch Nails

BCnP (Addicted To Noise) not-so-staff writer Gil Kaufman reports: A fan
with an overactive imagination is once again causing nothing but headaches
for Nine Inch Nail's Trent Reznor. The fan in question, who runs a
NIN/Trent page and who has reportedly been served with two cease and
desist orders over his unofficial rantings, has once again managed to fool
the press (some of them anyway) with erroneous information about Trent
Reznor and Nine Inch Nails, according to Reznor's management company.

A Reznor management source told us that, contrary to several published
reports including one in a recent issue of England's Melody Maker:

1) Reznor has not secured remix help from a homeless "bum" who resides in
the alley outside his studios.

2) Reznor has not completed an new album called Impossible Pain.

3) Nor has Reznor completed a remix album called Improbable Pain .

4) Trent Reznor's "half-brother," Bob Reznor, will not appear on said album,
mainly because there is no such person or album.

5) And finally, none of this (as reported in Melody Maker) is according to a
new interview with metal mag Kerrang! because Reznor never sat for an
interview with that magazine (Kerrang! also got the erroneous information
from the wacky fan's web site. One guy, so many headaches.

What NIN management did tell us is true is that Reznor and the boys will
appear in a Mark Romanek (Beck) directed video for "The Perfect Drug," the
new NIN song from the soundtrack to David Lynch's Lost Highway. The video
debuts on MTV this Sat., Jan. 18. "Trent is performing in it more so than
previous videos," said our source. "It's more of a role, a character he's
playing, but Trent's own personality definitely took over the character, so
it's still him in a way."

Although drummer Chris Vrenna appears in the video, don't look for him to be
behind the kit in the future, since he is no longer a member of NIN. We
understand that Vrenna, who has been by Reznor's side since NIN's debut,
Pretty Hate Machine, recently left New Orleans for Los Angeles and, as of
last Tuesday (Jan. 7) was on the road with the Smashing Pumpkins serving in
an undisclosed capacity. "He's not performing or playing live with them," a
source close to Vrenna told us. "But he's a real computer wiz and he's
working on some new soundtrack recordings with them, helping out with some
technical aspects." The Pumpkins' publicist confirmed that Vrenna had
recently joined the Pumpkins posse, and that the band is working on a song
for the next Batman movie.

Oh yeah. Also true: Reznor is writing the next NIN album in New Orleans and
Los Angeles.

Yea... Right... they just want him cause they need a new drummer. (or have
they found one already?) Or.. could this be the start of Smashing Pumpkins
turning into NIN?

No...but then again, SP makes my teeth ache. Does anyone know if
its a cover of the Missing Persons song Destination Unknown? If so,
I could see the techno angle.
