Nine Inch Nails: Beside You In Time Trailers

Capturing the powerful intensity and artistry of Nine Inch Nails' amazing live performances during the 2005-2006 “Live: With Teeth” Tour, the Beside You In Time concert film showcases the band in peak form. A visually stunning experience with an array of inventive and ingenious lighting designs that draws the viewer in while focusing the force of NIN’s epic sound into visual form.

Reviews
Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
Clarissa Mora The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
Kyle O'Brien Musically it's fantastic. Now flaws. However at times Reznor's voice sounds a little weak on tracks like "Hurt" or "March of The Pigs". And I'm annoyed at the extra f-words added. But despite some weaknesses, Trent still pulls off a stunning performance. Best songs: "With Teeth", "Closer" (love how they use the keyboard from their 1989 classic "The Only Time) and "Help Me I'm in Hell". Don't forget to check out the bonus features as well! It has some great music videos, and a live in-studio version of "Everyday is Exactly the Same" Plus a picture gallery, and five more live performances. I would recommend this to not only die-hard fans, but to NIN fans in general. And people new to the group will probably enjoy this as well, despite some weak vocals.
Pantalaimon60107 This was a great concert DVD, but at the same time, some of it seems like it's already been done before. The fact of the matter is, the version of "Closer" performed during this concert is almost the same as the version performed on the And All That Could Have Been tour, aside from the additional expletive. However, the band manages to kick a good amount of their line-up in high gear. Beside You In Time has one of the best live versions of "Something I Can Never Have" that I've ever seen. Also, his new material seems to have a new life that you didn't hear on the With_Teeth album, most notably in "Love Is Not Enough" and "The Line Begins To Blur." In addition to this, the concert isn't as much of a blur of metal and rage you'd think it might be. There's a good variety of songs here, just what you might expect to see on a Greatest Hits album. It's not all dull-sounding, like And All That Could Have Been. As lively as the hard rock songs are, the ballads like "Something I Can Never Have," "Right Where It Belongs," and "Hurt" are just as vivid. All in all, this concert DVD is nothing new, especially in the way of concert DVDs. At the same time, with the band kicking it up in high-gear, it's a good choice to get, whether you're a NIN enthusiast or just an average fan.
spare-ribs 2001's And All That Could Have been was the first concert film released by Nine Inch Nails. It was a well-done look at their live shows. However, it was cheaply filmed- Rob Sheridan used a series of Mini DV Camera- and poorly edited. Instead of filming one concert, it was many concerts spliced together to look like one. However, Beside You In Time is a much more polished film. This is only two concerts, which pretty much split the DVD. One in El Paso, and one in Oklahoma City. Instead of Mini-DV the concert is filmed in Hi-Def, making every little detail from the colors of the backdrop to the sweat on Trent Reznor's forehead stand out vibrantly. Rob Sheridan has an eye for good angles. The camera always seems to be in the perfect place at the perfect time, and all of the footage is masterfully edited together. There are no continuity errors like in And All That Could Have Been, no, Beside You In Time is fluid. Also, the sound production is absolutely Top-Notch, my surround sound system revealed every little detail in the mix. This is a snapshot of NIN at their best, and shouldn't be missed by any person with even a passing interest in Nine Inch Nails.
M W The funniest part about NIN is that they have only released 4 cd's. Yet Beside You In Time marks the 22nd Halo. For those who don't know Trent has marked every release(full lengths,singles,eps & videos)with the title of Halo followed by whatever number they are up to. Funnier still is that Trent somewhat stepped on the genre that made him a star. At least according to some of the vets who founded this genre and schooled Trent. Truth be told nine inch nails is a facade but a really really good one that has and continues to excite and entertain me beyond words. However I never ventured out to see them not once in all the 16 years prior to With Teeths release. For that release I attended a listening party,a small surprise show locally and saw them twice in a larger arena all within the same year. I own every halo release with the exception of the last live DVD release of The Fragile. Too expensive.Too bare bones.I wasn't there. However Live:Beside You In Time no matter the cost or content was a must own and im proud to say this DVD is loaded and sounds and looks great. Other than the extensive winter leg of the tour there is also a small amount of the summer tour featuring a song I have not heard anywhere unless im just missing it in all the confusion,Non-Entity. There is rehearsal footage and videos for The Hand That Feeds & Only. My inner geek also loved the subtitles because sometimes Trent adds lyrics that aren't always audible and now here they are. I know its chee-z but I've literally grown with nin. My head was in that same angst ridden position back in 89 with Pretty Hate Machine and then my self destructive 20's DownWard Spiral and even more lamenting as I entered my 30's Fragile and now im old and cranky but still rather messed up but calmer and somewhat at peace with it With Teeth. I didn't adjust my mood or lifestyle to accommodate the music the music of Nine Inch Nails has honestly been the soundtrack to my life thus far.
