I read his take on Chris Cornell’s Scream. I know EXACTLY where this is going.
4?R!1 F0075!!!
But I do get his concern that some of the best artists, even in rock and roll tend to turn to someone who is a hip-hop producer, though. Never turns out well, does it?
no dangermouse didn’t do a great job with either beck or black keys. it’s okay but the music doesn’t really have any life to it. it sounds flat and 1 dimensional. neither of those artists need him.
didn’t animal collective work with ben h. allen on that album that just came out recently? what was that called again? i think that worked out alright for them..
@Black Sunshine: Don’t forget that Reznor worked with Dre on Even Deeper from The Fragile back in ’99. See “Flyentology” by El-P for another non-disasterous example, although it’s arguably a rock producer working with a hip-hop artist… Really though, it doesn’t have to end badly. It only ends badly when it’s, uh, executed poorly. ;)
Sorry Chris, but I think it’s really funny. I’m a big fan of Chris’ work but I have to agree that his collaboration with Timbaland wasn’t really successful. But I have high hopes he will hit back with killer music in the future.
I just wonder if Fergie from The Black Eyed Peas was in the same room, or same studio, or even same state as Al Jorgensen when doing their vocals. I’d worry for her safety, the poor thing. Haha. Oh Trent.
“Even Closer” featuring Justin Timberlake and Maynard James Keenan sounds freaking amazing. Hows that album cover, Trent Reznor+shutter shades=the masterpiece that is “Strobe Light”
lol, that’s cause it sounds pretty much the same as her other stuff. there was no real sonic evolution. it was as close as bjork got to doing an album on autopilot. she doesn’t need timberland, timbalake.
really? he’s trying to make me pay 30 dollars for it?
fuck that. he loses. torrents win today.
No you should totally buy three copies. I just got it, Strobe Light > MPP
ha! next time i should actually TRY it before commenting.
trent wins today. and here comes the red arrows.
It’s really not the fact that you didn’t TRY to download it that’s the issue here.
The Chinaman is also not the issue here.
oh dude
what day is it?
haha i just paid for it. haha so weird it came out on april first haha.
That’s one killer beat! Timbaland is the greatest musical mind of our generation.
WELL PLAYED TRENT…WELL PLAYED. Thats so cash money!!!
Weezer was right in the song Pork and Beans – Im just trying to perfect the art guys!!
PS – I hate my fans.

MPP was produced by the same guy who produced St. Elsewhere… And I like that album.
Even on April 1st ART WINS
agreed. not sure Danger Mouse improved Beck’s or Black Keys’ sound. Don’t get me wrong, the albums were good but not great.

April Fools’ Day > Regular life.
Damn it, I get a blue screen of death when I try to download it! I think their website might be broken from such demand…

hahahah.. oh wait,
are you being funny or stupid?

Look “Everybody’s doing it” will surely be the anthem of 2009!
You win this time, Reznor, but I’ll have my reveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeenge!
even closer (featuring justin timberlake and maynard james keenan)
i`d actually like to hear that one
i’d love to hear the skits.
I think Bjork is the only artist who was able to pull off a successful artistic collaboration with Timbaland.
Missy Elliott? No?
Ummmm. Some weeks ago Trent criticizes Timbaland’s work with Chris Cornell and now he’s got an album produced by him??? Really?
Are you stupid or just just joking around?
Could we stop discussing Timbabland on this forum please?
This gets the award for best April Fools
Someone get this man a trophy.
