The March of the Pigs was the first Single from The Downward Spiral, the third Nine Inch Nails studio album. My first exposition to the band was this video. I found it raw and crude. I usually hate when rock musicians treat poorly their instruments, but this video was a great business card.
Later I bought a remix of the Downward Spiral, my first NIN CD and enjoyed it dearily. Piggy was my first option, but March of the Pigs is a song you never forget.
NIN is in fact a one man band. Trent Reznor plays and produces almost everything, sometimes with help but mostly alone. And his innovative mind is always the creative force that turns music from rythm patterns and special moods, harmonies and meters. And sound construction, let's not forget that.
Well, here is the video, enjoy.
Nine Inch Nails - March Of The Pigs
[via aelita23]
Step right up march push
Crawl right up on your knees
Please greed feed (no time to hesitate)
I want a little bit i want a piece of it i think he's losing it
I want to watch it come down
Don't like the look of it don't like the taste of it don't like the
Smell of it
I want to watch it come down
All the pigs are all lined up
I give you all that you want
Take the skin and peel it back
Now doesn't that make you feel better?
Shove it up inside surprise! lies
Stains like the blood on your teeth
Bite chew suck away the tender parts
I want to break it up i want to smash it up i want to f**k it up
I want to watch it come down
Maybe afraid of it let's discredit it let's pick away at it
I want to watch it come down
Now doesn't that make you feel better?
The pigs have won tonight
Now they can all sleep soundly
And everything is all right
