Trent Reznor is not a rock star, he is an artist. his music always drives me to step up in the creative world especially with the album “The Fragile”. All his albums are great. It’s great that his music has changed so much. Much of his newer music is less accessible than before. I think he has done a good job weeding out his fans ever since “The Fragile”. As his music evolves so does his fans. His angry audience seems to become more and more open minded or they just disappear. He’ll only have the more open minded crowd as fans in the end. The ones who don’t really care about how heavy or how catchy the music is but ones who are concerned about how much more creative and ambitious he has become. I’ve found myself not liking his albums when they’re freshly new but after a few years of listening to them that I appreciate them on a new level like never before. His conceptual purpose has become obvious to me.
