This man is a legend and played with legends. I hear he's teaching music now; it behooves you to treat him with utmost respect as he has achieved many good things in the past!
A truly revealing interview behind the inception of Nine Inch Nails. Even though it wouldn't have all worked without Trent's unprecedented lyrical brilliance, now we know that probably half of the genius and unique sound behind NIN came from this man. All those countless hours sampling and arranging unique sounds and programming drums perfectly complemented their early creations. He didn't even take proper credit for any of it. After all he wasn't in it for the fame or some ego trip. It's too bad this friendship didn't hold, or NIN would have made even more masterpieces. No wonder then, that the first few NIN albums still are their best and most profound work to date. Respect and hats off to Chris Vrenna!
There's now an interview Trent did with Rick Rubin where he called Chris his "good friend, drummer, and confidant" who "kept [him] sane" during the recording of the PHM demos. It made my cold black heart grow three sizes.
Poor Chris. During the TDS recordings Trent would have him go to the game store to pick up the latest video game and then Trent would play it for hours on end and not let Chris have a go.
+Silks tons of nin stuff was. head like a hole had the same head spinning that ministry use to use. ministry had the backdrop films. mansons smells like children song and astonishing times song was the same music as ministry. etc
Nin was just industrial for the masses, they took what bands like Skinny Puppy, throbbing gristle, big black did ,packaged in with pop music and became mainstream popular
yeah i went into that prog rock from Tool just cause i wanted to be like Danny Carey and I i was pretty much in high school..but i decided i wanted to try electronic music i had an idol of course reznor newman

Heard "Pure Genius" by Tweaker?
Whomever this person is, he DOES NOT KNOW TRENT OR THE NINE INCH NAILS.
He is DEFINITELY NOT our close friend Chris Vrenna.
@@isabellaswan2526 what are you talking about?!

Chris then said, "You guys wanna do a line before I talk for non-stop AGAIN for part II of this interview?"
Amazing musician and now he's teaching. Now THAT is truly amazing.
He is so damn good drummer.
Awesome.
man this guy is so humble :)
Luvvvvvv himmmmm
i'm watching this interview and i'm feeling myself like nivek in music video stairs and flowers where he's sitting on a chair...
Haha!
I really wish he and danny would hook back up with trent, robin, and atticus... bring back the old times.
Charlie Clouser too.. that would be nice!!
@@danielhamby9448 ya, that would be cool too... I just prefer Atticus over all the other keyboardist/backings

Theres also the stories of them lanning Doom 😅
Eh, well...
It's pretty plain that they absolutely adored each other back then, though.
Simmons SDS2000 I owned a set took a while to get used to the pads, but when I did hold shit!
wow!!!! love it!!!!!
Yass
No wonder early NIN seemed so heavily influenced by Ministry's "Twitch"

@@MelodicsRareMusicVid true about the panorama of the endtimes. Ministry and Foetus also bounce samples from each other.

I don't know why i think Chris talks too nervous (like anxious or something). Maybe i'm psychotic, but he looks like
