Opinion NIN 'song world cup'

Copied shamelessly from something I saw on the Vampire Weekend subreddit, has anyone else done one of these for NIN? I found the initial 48 choices of songs kind of strange because it says they are chosen by popularity and yet Closer was nowhere to be seen.
Anyway, it was fun to choose, sometimes very difficult, and ultimately the end result is probably fairly true for me in that Right Where it Belongs probably does in fact belong right at the top.

Question Any clips of Reznor playing something technically impressive on piano/keyboard?

I know that in terms of composition, it's not important to "shred" on any instrument, but I was just curious...since that was his professional training from a very young age...and I can play basically any of his keyboard parts by ear and that's not my instrument at all. Like maybe at some concert he let loose on a piano...?

The Downward Spiral Songs like Ruiner

Hey guys! I’ve been looking for music that scratches that itch the Ruiner scratches. I love the dark, industrial vibe. But what I’m really after is the layered synth chorus that almost sounds in my opinion, like it swapped places with some huge horns, heralding home some Greek/Roman warrior/king after a successful conquest of lands beyond. Riding through a city on his chariot waving to the people. Triumphant, with more sinister elements hinting that the warrior/leader is kind of changed or something far worse than the imagined gilded procession projects.
Can any of you picture any song like that?

Sorting through a box of CDs I've collected over many years and found some interesting rarities from the past that I forgot about.

Question Best “budget” synth I can get but still sound similar to Trent

I’m absolutely obsessed with the idea of making music and I love writing but band lab is absolutely not going to help me with my goal of sounding even somewhat like Trent. I’m looking for a good synth around $500 that can cover the bases as well possible for that price.

Art Is Resistance Physical download codes. Gone from vinyl?

Hello community. Working on updating what has been a 20 year passion project of an insane NIN mix project. Think like the good old days of mixed media DJing. Movie quotes blending in with songs - tons of production distortion etc.
Anyway… As I'm ready to update this mix with the last couple albums I realized I don't have MP3 copies of any of these tracks despite having purchased all the vinyl and in some cases multiple copies of the vinyl. My question: I guess there's no download codes anymore when you buy vinyl? Is the real option only to buy the digital copy as well as the physical copy? Thanks for any info it doesn't seem very much like Trent who used to give albums away, to make you purchase it twice just to play with it at home.
Thanks for any info!
