how to destroy angels

It's no surprise that I'm breathlessly interested in How to Destroy Angels, Trent Reznor's new band with his wife Mariqueen Maandig. Of course I'm intrigued - Trent is one of the smartest guys in music, and he's responsible for helping a generation through their teens and college years.

The first song is out there, and the video is not for the faint at heart. The video reminds me of Nine Inch Nails' early years, and the Broken videos that were thought to be snuff films. If those were homemade videos on a student's budget, this one is an indie idea on a Jerry Bruckheimer budget.

What do you think?
