Some of my favorite 90's rock tracks that always remind me of the Halloween season.
I love how "Rooster" starts. Very happy to place it at the beginning of this list to set the mood.
I added several versions of Joy Division's "Dead Souls" in the More Mix to help demonstrate the bone-crushing backbone that Reznor's groove rides on. The Crow soundtrack still stands as a seminal compilation of industrial-goth-rock of the era, in my opinion.
"Hey Man" has a long, quiet beginning, which I ordinarily don't like to put in the middle of a list. In this case, however, the first five songs have been so heavy, a small break is warranted. Additionally, it's an epic track in its own right, so I don't mind disconnecting it from the rest of the list.
Here's an interesting bit I found from Wikipedia about Richard Patrick (Filter):
"After a chance meeting with Trent Reznor in a Cleveland music store, Patrick landed a gig as guitarist in Reznor's live incarnation of Nine Inch Nails from 1989 to 1993.
"His only recorded contribution can be heard at the end of "Sanctified" on Pretty Hate Machine. Patrick also appeared in the music videos for "Down in It", "Head Like a Hole", "Wish", and one of the two promo videos for "Gave Up" (along with Marilyn Manson), which was filmed in the living room of the infamous house where Sharon Tate was murdered in 1969, as Reznor had leased the house and installed a recording studio in it.
"Patrick chose to leave the band during the recording of The Downward Spiral in 1993."
