Every time I read an interview with him, he comes across as this tyrant/control freak. He has to have complete control over everything "Nine Inch Nails".
In one particular interview, the interview was conducted over the course of several days. At the beginning of the second day, the interviewer showed him what they (don't remember if it was a he or a she, doesn't matter) had written based on the first day. There was one or two negative things said, but the rest was...well, "normal" fan fodder. He totally focused on the one or two negative things and spent way too much time back-pedalling.
I realize this may come across as pretty trite, and it is. I'm not even going to say that I'm not conveying it correctly. It's just a general impression. Probably one I endorse subconsciously. I happen to think it takes at least a little bit of "*******" to be a good frontperson.
Madonna, for instance, has it down. When she did that sex book, she was completely unapologetic about it. Ditto some of her goofier fashion choices around the same time or shortly thereafter.
