SOTD: Trent Reznor - Time and Chance (1983)


Yes, this is the guy who spearheaded -if not invented- Industrial music. Back in the early 80s he was in a new wave band that was known for doing a lot of cover songs in their live shows. The band was called Option 30 and they never had an actual release, but they did put out a demo tape in 1983. The tape went unnoticed until Reznor had success with The Downward Spiral. The tape was released on cd but, even then, it was limited to 1,000 copies.
On that tape were some okay new wave tunes, three cover songs, and this gem. Trent Reznor did not write this song but he did sing it. This is more than a novelty,...this is actually a good ska song.
