Trent Reznor Starts A New Band With A Ridiculous Name

I have this test. It's called the Nine Inch Nails test. If someone is wearing a shirt with "NIN" emblazoned on it, I know that we'll never be friends. I just can't, you know? Why would you expect me to?

I do, however, love Trent Reznor. He is comedy gold! When comics spoof Criss Angel, it's Criss Angel who's actually spoofing a long line of way mysterious alt-rockers, all of which lead back to Trent Reznor. And even though I'm not a huge fan of NIN's music, or its following, or its general sensibility, aesthetic or otherwise, a lot of Reznor's side-projects are awesome. He's worked alongside Tori Amos, El-P, Busta Rhymes and David Bowie. How can that ever be wrong? If Reznor wants to start a side-project with his wife and name it (ugh) "How To Destroy Angels," okay. Maybe she'll be the sane, missing ingredient. The teaser video they have up on the site is pretty bare bones, a lovely thing. (She is, however, wearing black nail polissh. You can't expect them to sell the house.)
