I’m not ashamed to admit that I don’t get it.
Nine Inch Nails is a band, and that is their logo
Oh! Thanks!
Also the person's comment is lyrics to their most famous song. Except "a manicure" is originally "what you deserve".
I would absolutely not call that his most famous song. That would probably be Closer
Head Like a Hole was his first single and the song that got him popular.
Teeeechhhhnically Down in It came out first, but yeah, Head Like a Hole was infinitely more popular.
No, Halo 3. HLAH wasn't released as a single until after PHM was released.
crazy that a heroin addled white 24 year old goth badly rapping over the sound of a cutlery drawer being rearranged didn't instantly propel him to stardom.
that's nit picking isn't it.
And the caption is a play on lyrics from their song "Head Like A Hole"
"bow down before the one you serve
You're going to get what you deserve"
Nin is a band you need to know
The text is a reference to a Nine Inch Nails song, which also seems to be where the place took their logo from.
