"Meshuggah later went on to use this software instrument to program all the drum tracks for their album Catch Thirty-Three, and the re-release of their album Nothing, using no live recorded drums by Haake. obZen also used the software as an auxiliary sound source as Haake plays."

Because Overdubs aren't good enough?? :-S

Beside the point. Its not about how they recorded it. You claimed they'd used the Drum kit from Hell instead of drums on multiple albums. They haven't (discounting the re-release).

That's like saying "Well, beside Pretty hate machine, NIN have used drummers on all their albums" you know while it's not wrong, it's only looking at a small section of the picture to support your argument.
They used a drum machine, more than once. End of.

NIN are meant to be a monumental experience in a live show though, so I'd like to see it, as a NIN fan, music fan and audio engineer, it's something that I feel necessitates seeing at some point.

Dailor goes on to explain the "Crack The Skye" concept: "There is a paraplegic and the only way that he can go anywhere is if he astral travels. He goes out of his body, into outer space and a bit like Icarus, he goes too close to the sun, burning off the golden umbilical cord that is attached to his solar plexus. So he is in outer space and he is lost, he gets sucked into a wormhole, he ends up in the spirit realm and he talks to spirits telling them that he is not really dead. So they send him to the Russian cult, they use him in a divination and they find out his problem. They decide they are going to help him. They put his soul inside Rasputin's body. Rasputin goes to usurp the czar and he is murdered. The two souls fly out of Rasputin's body through the crack in the sky(e) and Rasputin is the wise man that is trying to lead the child home to his body because his parents have discovered him by now and think that he is dead. Rasputin needs to get him back into his body before it's too late. But they end up running into the Devil along the way and the Devil tries to steal their souls and bring them down…there are some obstacles along the way."

You might wanna watch this video first. Freese and the keyboardist are leaving the band, and apparently their soundwave shows are just gonna be as a 4 piece, and really stripped back, without any of the light shows.

:-k I think that's a fair call, he's been doing it for a fair while. But sometimes what Trent says and what Trent does are two different things. Not to mention, he's a bloke who changes his mind.

Well, I do remember a certain Corey Taylor launching an entire microphone stand at somebody who heckled him.
And we're all familiar with the DEP/towel story.
I dunno about god complex, but sometimes it adds to the nature of the band. I'd like to meet him in person to get a chance to judge him on his merits then.

How many gigs have you even been to this year? I imagine it was good, as they are a great band, but gig of the year I am very doubtful. There was this small band at this tiny little concert called Rage Against The Machine that would take that honour.

TBH Rage werent that good really. The bronx were more energetic and over all fun
