Changes

[[Trent Reznor]] claimed in a radio interview that his first song, "[[Down In It (song)|Down In It]]", is a "total rip-off" of Skinny Puppy's 1986 single "Dig It". The two do bear a bit of resemblance. The very first [[Nine Inch Nails]] live shows were opening slots for Skinny Puppy along select [[VIVIsectVI Tour|VIVIsectVI]] tour dates in 1988 and featured songs in their early pre-release demo state, as heard on the ''[[Purest Feeling (album)|Purest Feeling]]'' live rehearsal recording. [[Trent ReznorChris Vrenna]] claimed in a radio interview that has also worked with Skinny Puppy, via his first songTweaker project, remixing "[[Down In It (song)|Down In It]]Assimilate", is a "total rip-off" of Skinny Puppy's 1986 single "Dig It". The two do bear a bit of resemblanceand opening for them in 2004.

Skinny Puppy's vocalist/front-man Nivek Ogre performed live on stage alongside Reznor in the band [[Pigface]], most notably sharing a duet of the song "[[Suck]]", which was recorded on video. In 2005, Ogre sang the song "[[Supernaut]]", often attributed to Reznor, with the band [[Ministry]] at a live show in New York City. Rumors exist that Ogre and Reznor met socially at some point in the years following, but it was unlikely to result in any collaboration. Reznor has also worked extensively with [[Dave “Rave” Ogilvie]], a one-time permanent fixture in Skinny Puppy as producer and band member. On August 10, 2007, Skinny Puppy was featured on [[nin.com]] in a photograph taken by Reznor at the Sziget Festival in Budapest, Hungary.
