How to Destroy Angels Premiere New Video for 'The Space in Between'

I’m wondering who has enough balls to put up with the shame and ridicule of being ociated with the live version of this band when they start to tour. Trent always burns bridges and he’s insulted nearly all the people he’s ever worked with over the years.

Justin-Meldal Johnson: HTDA sound isn’t funky enough for him. Anyways, he’s workin’ for Tom Cruise and John Travolta now, conducting e-meter tests in Scientology headquarters. Even Trent’s cult status cannot compete with the resources of a real cult.

Jeordie White: Still busy embarrassing himself with Marilyn Manson and trying to get Goon Moon off the ground. Probably has too much Valtrex built up in his system to make it through “A Drowning” without slipping into a coma.

Supposedly Robin Finck will play anything for a paycheck but he may still want to distance himself from this . Trent will be forced to do what he always does in that situation: blackmail him into joining the band. Trent and Rob probably have a back catalog of compromising photos from previous tours.

Aaron North: I really don’t know what he’s doing right now. Is his band even together any more? He’s not even on Buddyhead. It’s like after anyone touches NIN they’re cursed or something. Anyways, I can’t see Aaron jumping around to HTDA material on stage. I think he’d rather go into the witness protection program. If he hasn’t already. Really, where’d the little midget go?

Atticus Ross: He’s already a default member of the band though it’s difficult to tell whether or not he has a choice. You know those ankle bracelets that convicts wear when they’re on probation? I think Trent locked one onto Atticus some years back and swallowed the key.

Alessandro Cortini: Trent was quoted aying. “Alessandro is one of the most miserable people I know.” Of course, this misery probably stemmed from being trapped in close quarters with Trent over several years. Great, then he’s the perfect choice to back Mariqueen’s miserable vocals with ambient, moody noise! HTDA may break new ground yet as the first band to ever have a member commit suicide while performing live.

Josh Freese: Josh is the only musician impervious to Trent’s bi-polar tantrums due to the fact that he is a robot. Everyone knows this is true, so don’t be weird abou. There are probably multiple Josh units performing with multiple bands simultaneously in different parts of the world right was we speak. This means he can’t use the excuse that he’s too busy. he can, however, use the excuse that he only plays with bands that are “good.”

Ilan Rubin: Since Ilan never added anything extraordinary to NIN he’s a shoe-in for HTDA’s generic sound. He’s an impressionable young lad with a brain ripe for brainwashing, much like Rob Sheridan ten years ago. Ilan will have a totally awesome time until someone sits him down one day and explains where babies come from. Then he’ll never be able to look at Trent and Mariqueen the same way ever again.

Gary Numan, Peter Murphy, David Bowie, Peter Christopherson: One would hope these artists have enough sense to never pollute their reputations by becoming involved with HTDA.

Mariqueen Reznor: Of course she’s got to go on tour with the band. She’s real talented at fiddling with Trent’s knob(s). And I hear she sings or something. An added plus: if she can’t make it to the show you can just replace her with a corpse, as illustrated by the video, and no one will know the difference.

So we have our lineup!
Robin on Guitar, pink recorder, pan flute and ’shrooms Atticus on programming, synths, and a leash
Alessandro on B and Buchla (until he kills himself and is replaced by Trent)
Ilan on drums until Trent decides he’s tired of him, throws a tantrum, abandons him on the side of the road in rural Idaho and replaces him with Justin Bieber.
Mariqueen doing vocals, Trent, and a bunch of roadies for drugs.
Trent losing his over technical glitches and a lot of empty seats.

Doesn't answer the question "why" he put her on a project. We can all read, we saw her relation to him but thanks anyway. Just because my husband is a football player doesn't mean I'm fit to play on the field.

Either you like it or you don't....you could have said, "this is not my cup of tea",....and Andy, you don't need to act so insulted because someone expresses their opinion.

It never ceases to amaze me how people who (I assume) don't create anything themselves, can be so casually dismissive of the hard work of artists. So quick to reduce that effort, calling it "meaningless" or "pointless". As this visual/audio experience goes out across the world, reaching millions more people than you ever will, who are you to say how many it will touch, and what meaning and connection each person will find in it?

I thought it was seductive; a murderous ballet to my ears. The video fit the mood of the song perfectly. Darkness is an essential tool to some; knees touching the floor, you shake as chills pulsate like razors throughout your body, a cold stone floats painfully in your chest, the cold steel radiates through the deepest recesses of your mind, as the hammer slides forward, time stands still, and then its as if the whole earth sunders around you, there was no thunderous bang; maybe I'm okay; but your floating in space, your throat tightens as you fall into darkness; no you think...you want to live...but its too late; we make choices, we live or die by them.
