This album doesn’t recreate the wheel musically and there is a ridiculous shock and awe element, but after listening to I can’t help but to think that this is great collaboration.
I am a long time fan of both Nine Inch Nails and Halsey and am completely blown away by what each brings. It is a beautiful and temporary creation: to stay in self-wallowing gets old quickly.
I am glad to hear other artist influences such as Sky Ferreira on ‘You Asked for This,’ Haley Williams on ‘Honey,’ Taylor Swift on ‘Darling,’ and Trent Reznor himself on ‘I’m not a woman’ and ‘Girl is a Gun.’ Trent’s sound takes me back to high school during the Pretty Hate Machine days! Love it! If I Can’t Have Love I Want Power remixes and refreshes the state of current music.
