Song by Nine Inch Nails - THE BACKGROUND WORLD ( Edit )

[@stevencoates3382]

"The machine was old, barely working. Rust had ruined it's aesthetic, corrupted it's ability to function. "It was then I had the horrible realisation: the machine represented us, humanity. And the rust was our baser instinct, our primal need to stalk, to oppress. To DESTROY. "And the apocalypse? That was our payment. Only God can judge us, right? If he let us do this to ourselves, he felt us deserving, clearly. Mankind had to pay the piper, and this hell that we created for ourselves was the fee..."

I've never been pinned before, lol. Cheers!

[@jessikatkins1173]

And it really does deserve pinning. I was expecting you to have sooooo many likes with that comment as I scrolled down. Well enjoy being pinned. I believe it's better than being pinioned. ;)

[@xonxt7479]

the originals 52 loops of the beat had a meaning thematically, but it made it a pain to listen too.

[@Baaam700]

what??? its the best part of the song

[@freudianslip2534]

I would buy this artwork I like it more than the original the rust really does something

That's not rust...the blood of the researcher's at c.e.r.n. after the background world bleed thru...see it now??

[@supadupahilton6848]

You left me here What am I supposed to do? I never dared to look inside Just like you told me to I'm going into you again I know you saw it too And I will keep myself awake I know what's coming I feel it reaching through There is no moving past There is no better place There is no future point in time We will not get away The world is bleeding out It folds itself in two Behind the background world It's always bleeding through Are you sure This is what you want? Are you sure This is what you want? Are you sure This is what you want? Are you sure This is what you want? Are you sure This is what you want? Are you sure This is what you want? Are you sure This is what you want? (Hard as you try not to see it) Are you sure This is what you want? (Hard as you try not to see it) Are you sure This is what you want?

The original ver was made one floor below where a fire started and it killed 107 or more people, the gap between the loop part and the main song was not put there by Trent it was just there this was posted on a Nine Inch Nails forum but no one knows about it for some reason but I think the gap noise is when the fire hit that’s really all I have to say about it

[@2bluemoonalpha]

@@AbelMcintire - Thanks. Never heard this story.

[@AbelMcintire]

It was posted on a Nine Inch Nails forms page and someone said it was covered up any time I try to search it It is like it never happened

[@Ohmman]

i really wish trent would do another game score jfc, this would fit right into Reaver

[@educationisnice]

Wow, must be tedious for you. I can barely handle it myself. The world doesn’t bleed but our perception of realities do. One or two people are capable of creating and seeing other dimensions. Sounds like cemetery man. Badass man

[@JoannaLang-on4qo]

Nice "original" thought. Why must people not understand this the guitar riff was not cemetery man and was a die antward influence.

[@danryan7718]

This is such a banger reminds me of the older trent like this feels lik downward, fragile and year 0 all wrapped up in a neat little package i mean song

[@saikakasashi3689]

The creepier part of it, the world machine is real.

[@russellhunt8074]

Wow! I bow down to you, Blue Tv! You did such an amazing job with this. NIN is my religion and I truly appreciate this beautiful edit that only enhances the essence and grit of the song! Trent's perfection is impossible to improve but I think this one time it was achieved. Thank you very much for sharing this masterpiece and for your detailed explanation too, from a very dedicated NIN fan!

[@JoannaLang-on4qo]

The artwork is beautiful. I think it's my favorite.

[@feathur5]

You did quality work! Perfect edit IMO & exactly what i wanted! I love the original, but for a quick play its perferct.

Good edit. I don’t dislike the original but it is like 4 minutes good song 7 minutes monotonous noise.

They really need to change the name of this band to Twelve Inch Nails. Its not the same band since Atticus took over.

[@Baaam700]

its so dumb to cut off end loops, who do you think you are to do this?
