A fantastic new upgrade to this source that we have had since the beginning of the archive. Thanks to Matt at DMLiveWiki, we were able to add this 2nd gen audio rip from the video recording. This upgrade blows the previous version of this source out of the water! The sound is 100 times better and although audio from a camcorder, the best audio from the very early NIN shows. Matt transferred the VHS tape and hopefully soon we will be able to bring you the video. You can listen to the previous mp3 version of this same source to see how much the quality has been upgraded!

Notes
Matt transferred this almost 9 years ago and I just kept forgetting I needed to add the video to the archive! This video recording has been copied and circulated over and over again in various quality. To be honest, this is the best quality I have seen this recording before. I think a lot of it has to do with a stellar transfer by the DMLiveWiki. I'd also like to think this VHS is a pretty low gen with less grain than other copies I have seen of this tape. An early recording from Nine Inch Nails, it's pretty amazing to see a quality, unobstructed recording from 1989. Very scarce in terms of tapes from early NIN. If anyone may know who taped this, it would be awesome to have a proper copy!
Notes
This is a unknown cassette generation. Kinda I Want To is cut at the beginning, Down in It is cut at 35 seconds and Head Like A Hole is missing. This is the same source as the below one, but in FLAC format, but the drawback is it's incomplete. If anyone has either of these sources in better quality or any info on these. Please contact me.
Notes
This is the same source as the unknown cassette generation. But I would assume that this may be a lower generation transfer. Unfortunately it only comes in mp3 format. But this transfer is complete with no cuts. If anyone has either of these sources in better quality or any info on these. Please contact me.
Notes
The first known Nine Inch Nails recording available. It is on the silver CD "Show Up Or Throw Up." The first 6 tracks on the silver CD are on this disc. You can find the other 9 tracks from the disc from 08/01/1991 St. Paul. I am not sure if this is the whole recording of the show at Irving Plaza. Sound is good for a 1988 recording. Especially for the first NIN recording out there. I have been told that this was recorded on a Sony WM-D6. I have also gotten "supposedly" 1st gen copies from the master tape but they do not sound nearly as good as the silver pressed CD.
