Sure,but he works always with GREAT musicians.....
I'm not sayin that he's not talented,but when you work with some of the bests around,its easier.
For example,in this live song,look who's the real talent (josh freese,the drummer)

He's playing something that Trent composed by himself in the studio

Nah, because NIN was comprised of several different band members. Prince used to write, compose, and arrange every riff for every instrument within a song, except for when he was working with new power generation the revolution. even then, all the instrumental riffs were written and arranged by him. I give Reznor more props as a sound designer because no one in the industry has ffucked with audio signals so intensely like he has. That's why he was doing video game sound tracks and sound editing and stuff. Musically though, Prince takes the cake for oversight and creative diversity.

Man thanks, I couldn't have made my arguments any better. That's why I posted earlier differences in Trent's music... he is versatile. Ghosts is something totally different than what most could even dream. I posted how he takes a song and make it rock, funks it up, whatever the hell he does and makes it his. His talent is unmatched along with his versatility.

I was just backing up what you already touched on.Fact is Trent is a very over looked talent.Not only as a Musician/composer but as a writer as well.Every new album he puts out I check for.
