Trent's work with Atticus Ross has such a different feel to it compared to his work alone. It's not bad, it's just different. Slower, more menacing, more calculated, and just... foreboding. I can't describe it. I can only feel it.
There's often that modulation - the melodies and lyrics are VERY Trent, but there's definitely a different tone to the music. The percussion especially. In collabs I've done - it's that unknown "what's it going to be - what kind of precious little monster are we making?" the sum of the parts is often very different to what you think it's going to be.
This is Trent joining up with Atticus already heading in a direction to produce something at that period. So a lot of HTDA is finished off by them all as a group of artists, but initially started from Atticus's material or ideas instead of Trent's. But since then Trent has decided he is the other half of NIN, & they truly are a duo & team together in partnership of creative duties etc. I really love the last x3 NIN ep's. U can hear that they are on there path now with it all, & Trent is better for it now he feels & trusts NIN to the control of a partnership of interest & decisions for it. He had wrapped NIN up once again at the stage of HTDA... If it wasn't for working with Atticus's interests at the time, we may not still have more NIN now imo? He wasn't doing any music or production at all at this stage of life for 2-3yrs. & had started family life etc. I'm a producers myself, & Atticus is of the top electronic music programmers or producers u could be lucky enough to work with imo too. He, Flood & Alan Wilder of Depeche Mode legacies are 3 people with a special ear & craft of electronic music production especially
HTDA is fucking great. Still waiting on a new album. Love the textures, soundscapes and sound of their voices. Kind of like NIN's reserved older sibling, ha
Thanks for your years of entertainment. I still have the first NIN cassette tape. Got it when I was 13, and now Im 44. I will always be mesmerized by your work.
Because music is not always about “complex riffs and constant changes”... some of the best music is minimal, subtle, and repetitive even... it all depends on the context and the style. Another great band for this reason is Seefeel.
Love this band, Mariqueen gives trents music a more sensitive approach but its still dark, articulate and true to the music he always used to write with atticus ross. very excited for the new album
I love at 3:00 when his voice is cut on “I ca-“, but what really gives me goosebumps and makes my eyes well up is when her voice gets cut similarly on “keep i-“ at the end. It’s a desperate promise all in vain. They cannot keep it together
There are no words that could possibly describe how much I love this song and HTDA

LYRICS I feel the skin that separates us, start to fade And when I lye on top of you, I'm afraid I can see right through myself, crystal clear I am disassembling I could disappear, disappear There is a voice inside of me, I don't know And all his words keep echoing trim and low I've been waiting for a sign to appear He has a message waiting for me But I don't wanna hear I promise, I swear, I can not keep it together I can not keep it together I can not keep it together I can not keep it together I can not keep it together I can not keep it together I can keep it together I can keep it together I can keep it together I can keep it together I can keep it together I can keep it together I can keep it together I can not keep it together I can keep it together I can keep it together I can keep it together
for those of us who hunt in the world of pleasures and pain.. who live within our own mind and create the moments we feed on to sustain the the perpetual motion of the life we desire in the essence of power, lust,want and movement .. can only understand the chaotic dance of this song..
Kilher Habibi Everyone hunts, some just don't recognize it. Everyone lives in their own mind, yet most humans don't *own* their _own_ mind... We feed on moments because we are slaves to time... But yes, the music is brilliant.
Agreed ! Variety is the spice of life. Just love the music for what it is and appreciate the fact that Trent is still making musical contributions. I've been a long time NIN fan myself and will always love anything Trent puts out. Same with Maynard, I love everything he did with Tool just as much as I do with A Perfect Circle and Puscifer.
some people can't give a decent critique because they don't know what is involved in the creative process so instead they spew hate cause that is easier. Some just do not appreciate minimalism but I really enjoy this song.
damn, cant believe that thsi is the same group which made something i can never have, the melody was so dreamy hypnotic, out of this world! this stuff right here is so far ahead of its time!
This video has such a cool look, vibe, and sound to it...SUPER cool...everything about it...then a dangerous sense of sex appeal to top things off....I love it
this track (like most on the album) is AWESOME. her voice is perfect and the the over-all sound of the track is amazing, it definitely keeps me interested. Glad to hear a more grown up & evolved trent reznor.
This vid is great. It looks like just rehearsal, but the nervous fear in Mariqueen's face at the end shows subtle visualization towards being unable to Keep It Together. Even Trent's face shows a feeling of uncertainty than it showed in any NIN video. Love this: track, vid & group.
I understand some people expecting much more from this song....The first time I heard it, I thought the exact same thing. Now, check it out in detail. Put on your headphones and listen to every detail. It is incredible. It does sound like NIN. Just relax and admire the song as it is. How many people know how to structure a song in this way? Trent is so talented...
I like how some people commented negatively on this track as if they were directly talking to Trent Reznor. You know, he quite possibly couldn't care less whether anyone doesn't like whatever sort of music he composes in any given moment of his life, and that's why he decides to release it? He does HTDA with his wife, the person he loves the most; it's quite safe to say he probably enjoys it.
This is Awesome!!! bought all albums, because it is Trent Reznor with a female voice. It's purely creative. How To Destroy Angels is great get all of their albums.
Let the hater's hate. This is simply brilliant! Trent Reznor has always been the type of musician that was about his musical vision and not his paycheck. The result has always been music I am proud to blast while others follow the crap blindly. Mariqueen is something! Her voice blends well with Trent's style. 5 freaking stars!
That was a great song. Been a longtime fan now. Being outside the U.S. is scary...I am a girl allalone in Mexico. Oh god, its so different. Scary, i feel vulnerable running from my mistakes. I love you trent, wish me safety in hotels as a gringa lol... :-o
Every month or 2 months after this single release until today, i still love the way this video shows different intro to this song, that Swarmatornic [I think] gliding solo under Rob Sheridan's hands give me goose bump every damn time. That's impressive...
Why is everyone dishonouring his project? It's a great step to Mr. Reznor's latest work. I think it's one of the best music I have ever heard in my short span of life, NIN our my 1st and last favourite band of all time but' you gotta give him credit for this amazing piece of work.
I really like this side of Trent's work. Its good chill music. NIN fans that don't appreciate this do not truly understand where Trent is coming from as an artist and what the music means to him.
loved the NIN sound since i was in middle school but the songs never really resonated with me. HTDA is right down my alley as far as tempo/rhythm goes. incredible
I've always wanted to be born when NIN first started so then I could witness the birth of NIN, but now I get to witness the birth of How To Destroy Angels!
i had to listen to this one 3 or 4 times before i really started liking it. It reminds me of vessel which is one of my favorites, which i also did not initially like and took some time to warm up to.
Likewise. People complain about stagnation as much as they do about change. Come to think of it, people just like to complain. There's an air of originality around all of HTDA's stuff that is sorely lacking in the modern music industry - I for one am both excited and impressed by something that doesn't sound like anything else. You know, what Reznor and crew have always been good at. To those not digging the new stuff I have no animosity, just confusion as to why you even bothered to click.
Because Trent is involved, I must say creepiest sexy music ever. Everything he does is sexy. I bet he even defecates with smoldering hot intensity. Heh.
I'm not talking about the quality of music, I'm talking about idiots who are not judging the music based on what it is, rather what it isn't. And the fact that you like Muse tells me a lot about your taste in music.

Yes nice partner for sure. Finding a vocalist for their duo was a wonderful idea.

So multi-layered and atmospheric... Trent is a true modern musical genius.
Love how the bass acts like a glue for all the other sounds to dance around, the vocals and clicky drums.
It's really a shame that so many people don't see the genius and the beauty in this song
Bc it sucks
@@lizaltman1200chill bruh
Agreed
@@lizaltman1200lmao 😂 to each their own
I could careless what they can and can't see since they'll never see what I can see anyways.
Thanks for your years of entertainment. I still have the first NIN cassette tape. Got it when I was 13, and now Im 44. I will always be mesmerized by your work.
Broken EP and Pretty Hate Machine sure was a great influence.
My kinda human.
oh man I feel ya! did you have to rewind it with a pencil just as I did? :D
Hope their marriage together,is as harmonious as their voices are together.
They may just 'Keep it together'!
Over ten years now and 5 children later- I'd say they've both done very well. Hope their marriage continues well for them.
@@ardillarojo me too, although if he becomes free I’m quite happy to marry him. Or her for that matter 😂
@@allisonday893same they awake the bi in me 😂😂😂
Everything Trent Reznor touches, literally turns to gold
THATS NOT WHAT "LITERALLY" MEANS !!!
rockgvmt Lol
Trinity Olivas
Yes
Except this band
It's better than anything NIN has put out in the last 10 years
Love how the spare layers build until it's about a mile deep. And the wide shot of the studio near the end is like geargasm.
I was tapping on the search ''How to design a logo'' and I end up here. Welp, bless this mistake
In a pitch black abyss where my soul has been stolen and destroyed. You and NIN are the only fragment of light left! All else is truly McDonald's.
Erica Wright big macs
I stumbled on this comment and laughter was not controllable. Thank you, hahaha
That's pretty funny because there was a McDonald's ad before the video played
You should try team sleep out and crosses.
There's still Skinny Puppy too.
I want a studio like that... so I can jam and experiment all day long...
There would be countless "missing person" reports on me.
Shit I’d be fine with just Mariqueen 😍
ugh me too. studios look so fun. so much stuff.
I can't keep one surface of my place together; I don't know how they can keep all those gadgets straight.
Beautiful voice, beautiful lyrics, beautiful Woman. Thank you.
I don't think her voice is weak, it's perfect for the kind of music Reznor is composing nowadays.
That bass line tho
Lie Likes Music do you have a video about this group?Would love to hear your take.
Hello, Lie!!
How can the same note played on a guitar 7 times sound so incredible.
Reznor just wins. Every. Single. Time.
Because music is not always about “complex riffs and constant changes”... some of the best music is minimal, subtle, and repetitive even... it all depends on the context and the style. Another great band for this reason is Seefeel.
I love Mariqueen's voice. It's eerie, beautiful, and ethereal. Besides, Trent's genius is in taking random sound and making it coherent.
It's beautiful 😍
Mariqueen and Trent are a perfect duo
Love this type sound.
Reminds me of dark trip hop acts like Massive Attack, Portishead, Tricky, Allflaws
The mood this song sets is just so cool. Also, kudos to whoever filmed this. They did an AMAZING job; really takes you into the room with them.
I love how the great artists never stay stuck. trent and the people he surrounds himself with are doing what they do for the art. this is art.
Love this band, Mariqueen gives trents music a more sensitive approach but its still dark, articulate and true to the music he always used to write with atticus ross. very excited for the new album
Never gets old all these years later. ages like fine wine this one does!
I love at 3:00 when his voice is cut on “I ca-“, but what really gives me goosebumps and makes my eyes well up is when her voice gets cut similarly on “keep i-“ at the end. It’s a desperate promise all in vain. They cannot keep it together

LYRICS
I feel the skin that separates us, start to fade
And when I lye on top of you, I'm afraid
I can see right through myself, crystal clear
I am disassembling
I could disappear, disappear
There is a voice inside of me, I don't know
And all his words keep echoing trim and low
I've been waiting for a sign to appear
He has a message waiting for me
But I don't wanna hear
I promise, I swear, I can not keep it together
I can not keep it together
I can not keep it together
I can not keep it together
I can not keep it together
I can not keep it together
I can keep it together
I can keep it together
I can keep it together
I can keep it together
I can keep it together
I can keep it together
I can keep it together
I can not keep it together
I can keep it together
I can keep it together
I can keep it together
Sophisticated. Controlled. And a palpable tension,expressive of the subject. These guys know what they're doing.
Que nos quieres decir Jimin con este álbum 😱🙀😱😱🙀🔥🔥🔥 me estoy emocionado.
They look so damn good together....I just love their story! N the way they blend
i like the longer beginning, with that little "practice" riff in the beginning :)
How in the hell is this young lady not on every radio station on earth
The more I hear your voice,Mariqueen, the more I love it. Thanks for being around.
for those of us who hunt in the world of pleasures and pain.. who live within our own mind and create the moments we feed on to sustain the the perpetual motion of the life we desire in the essence of power, lust,want and movement .. can only understand the chaotic dance of this song..
Kilher Habibi Everyone hunts, some just don't recognize it. Everyone lives in their own mind, yet most humans don't *own* their _own_ mind... We feed on moments because we are slaves to time... But yes, the music is brilliant.
Love the simple atmosphere of her voice...eerie stuff.
Agreed ! Variety is the spice of life. Just love the music for what it is and appreciate the fact that Trent is still making musical contributions. I've been a long time NIN fan myself and will always love anything Trent puts out. Same with Maynard, I love everything he did with Tool just as much as I do with A Perfect Circle and Puscifer.
I love the sound experimental and two voices blend excellent elasticity.
she is beautiful! i love what Trent is doing for her!!
I would give anything to have been their during that recording. Trent and Atticus' studio techniques are so amazing and interesting.
HTDA is bomb. She brings a great voice to that NIN sound.
All music is poetry and vice versa but this is a poem set to music.
some people can't give a decent critique because they don't know what is involved in the creative process so instead they spew hate cause that is easier. Some just do not appreciate minimalism but I really enjoy this song.
still the sexiest tune out there
Trent Reznor never disappoints! I love this song.
Trent wants to be part of movie soundtracks industry. This project with his wife is a clear proof of that...
Now we have gone girl :) and countless others.
damn, cant believe that thsi is the same group which made something i can never have, the melody was so dreamy hypnotic, out of this world! this stuff right here is so far ahead of its time!
This video has such a cool look, vibe, and sound to it...SUPER cool...everything about it...then a dangerous sense of sex appeal to top things off....I love it
This crushes my soul in the best ways possible. Freakin' brilliant!
This is a whole new level comparing to Trent's NIN era. It's nice to hear he took the experimentation even further and didn't mainstream. Love it.
How do you get a perfect couple in life like that.
this track (like most on the album) is AWESOME. her voice is perfect and the the over-all sound of the track is amazing, it definitely keeps me interested. Glad to hear a more grown up & evolved trent reznor.
Guitar arrangement Is just awesome and mix of their 2 voices ....
Cant help feel jealous because I have a massive crush on Trent but they make a great couple! 😍
rayanne liu Doesn't everyone?
They are married. Like back in 2009. Still going.
... what a beautiful... g...gears! :):):). Only one of those unit should be enough for me! Great performance!
by far, the best comment I've seen in years regarding Trent's music
That guitar tho!!!!!!!!!!!
This vid is great. It looks like just rehearsal, but the nervous fear in Mariqueen's face at the end shows subtle visualization towards being unable to Keep It Together. Even Trent's face shows a feeling of uncertainty than it showed in any NIN video. Love this: track, vid & group.
That was awesome.... Crazy effects going on, I really dig the cryptic sound they produce on this track...
cant forget the roland space echo either and seeing him use the native instruments maschine is cool.
I understand some people expecting much more from this song....The first time I heard it, I thought the exact same thing.
Now, check it out in detail.
Put on your headphones and listen to every detail. It is incredible.
It does sound like NIN. Just relax and admire the song as it is. How many people know how to structure a song in this way? Trent is so talented...
Sounds like upgraded Year Zero. I like it. Also it reminds me of Doom 2016 OST, not guitar tracks, only noise-idustrial ones
Firè
He made that alone from the choice to music that's amazing
I like how some people commented negatively on this track as if they were directly talking to Trent Reznor.

The performance at Palms casino in Las Vegas was so sick!!!! I want to see them again! I love this song.

This is great music.
I enjoy HTDA'S music so much! This was an awesome song to hear and shows just how talented the whole band is.
Simple video 2 a beautiful song - great 2 hear new stuff Trent
I sincerely love how people think that they are owed NiN. Don't hate on Trent's music just because he isn't doing NiN anymore.
the song is sick...Mariqueen is awesome. the mellow dramatics are driving me into a state of insanity
I really like this side of Trent's work. Its good chill music. NIN fans that don't appreciate this do not truly understand where Trent is coming from as an artist and what the music means to him.
This sounds massive attackish ...I like it a lot...Reznor knows how to make music!!!
I really love them together I hope they remain married and wish them a wonderful long happy marriage together. They inspire me as a couple :)
loved the NIN sound since i was in middle school but the songs never really resonated with me. HTDA is right down my alley as far as tempo/rhythm goes. incredible
That would be madness!! I cant even imagine so much talent together *.*
So good. Love this view into the process and hardware. Inspiring work for sure…
I wish this band (Mariqueen and Trent) did more music. I think they would have at least a couple more interesting albums
preach

Creepiest sexy music ever, or sexiest creepy music ever?
Because Trent is involved, I must say creepiest sexy music ever. Everything he does is sexy. I bet he even defecates with smoldering hot intensity. Heh.
Very good; found via shout out in Entertainment Weekly. Thumbs up!!
learn from Trent
he only surrounds himself w/ people that share his vision, talent & drive
= producing another great band:
HTDA 🎹 🎤🎵
Bravo Trenz it feel like you remade peace with machines.
Really like this... very soothing. Prefer this to most of NIN.
This whole album is amazing!
Gorgeous stuff!
I absolutely love this work of art
Holy shit! I'm just now discovering this?? Sheer awesome!!
Song symbolizes my life as my grandpa is slowly passing.. love you gramps..i am so sorry
Hugs for you, man.
I'm not talking about the quality of music, I'm talking about idiots who are not judging the music based on what it is, rather what it isn't.
And the fact that you like Muse tells me a lot about your taste in music.
Beautiful video. Simple, yet awesome.
God this song is amazing Love it :) Mariqueen has such an awesome voice!!!!
we gonna get more HTDA in 2015? ive actualy come to realy realy like the band.
2016
2017
2018
First listen and I can honestly say it's bone chillingly awesome in the literal sense.
I really don't get the 188 dislikes... It is objectively not a bad song! LOVE IT!
Perfect to sci fi movie or web series.
