Hammering It Home... Trent is an American last I checked who grew up in Ohio. Although not the worst bootleg title (Industrial Iguanas, Trent's Nasty Babes, and Salenas True Killers take the cake)it makes no sense. Trent Reznor is not British. Probably my favorite bootleg from this time period. Somehow it weaseled its way into legitimate stores in 1995 like Best Buy and (the now defunct) Circuit City. The audio is sub-par. It does not really matter though because Trent sounds DRUNK on this one. He is all over the place asking the crowd if 'anyone has an enema' and if 'they speak english?'. The performance quickly becomes a disaster which is only discernible if you listen to a lot of NIN bootlegs from this time period. The CD is professionally pressed in neon green. The booklet has nothing to offer, other than pictures of Trent. This is the most hilarious NIN bootleg, other than one claiming to be the first NIN concert which features Trent statements in a whinny voice saying, "Thank you were called Nine Inch Nails" at least four times. I sold it on ebay 8 years ago I can't remeber the title (sorry...) If you see this one buy it.
