Just to clarify, the monkey in the video was not at all harmed, they gave him lots of bananas and love during the filming, the ASPCA was present during filming of the music video. The pig carcass was real, but it was purchased from a slaughterhouse and Trent Reznor regretted it because it smelled very bad.
All the streamers and YouTubers these days worrying about getting demonetised for talking about sex, and here’s NIN just uploading completely uncensored nudity to a public platform. Damn you gotta respect it.
I see what people are saying with this guy being ahead of his time. I feel like this song could be made today and people would still think it’s ahead of its time
Btw, the monkey wasn't really tied up - the string was loose. They put it in position, but it was holding on and could remove its hands anytime it wanted. And it got loads of bananas for acting 🤣
