A lovely Nine Inch Nails speech by Iggy Pop: A portrait of pain, pressure, and dissatisfaction

Iggy Pop gave a great speech on Nine Inch Nails' Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction, describing NIN's music as "a focused and relentless process of emotional destruction which paints a portrait of pain, pressure, and dissatisfaction", CoS reports. He then described how seeing NIN live (1995 in LA's Forum with David Bowie) felt - "Trent held the center of the room just by being a kind of dark spot, hunched behind the mic. I had seen the same thing accomplished in different ways by T. Rex at Wembley, Nirvana at the Pyramid Club, and Bob Dylan in 1965. This is the mark of a master artist – simply to connect”. Trent Reznor said that “as an artist I think the most significant accomplishment or feeling is realizing that something you created from a fragile and intimate place has reached out, resonated, and affected someone else", adding “the journey is far from over".
