Trent Reznor MBTI Personality Type

Personality

What personality type is Trent Reznor? Trent Reznor is an INTJ personality type in MBTI, 5w4 - sx/sp - 548 in Enneagram, RLOEI in Big 5, ILI in Socionics.

INTJ all the way but not seeing 5w4, especially when I measure him next to 5w4 INTJs like Blixa Bargeld, Dominick Fernow or Friedrich Nietzsche. I see much more commonality with fellow 4w5 INTJs Chris Cornell and David Eugene Edwards. Aside from the lyrical themes present in every single one of Trent's projects, even in his interviews the emotionally turbulent nature of sx dom 4 core seems extremely obvious. I think any 5 core vibe would simply come from the fact he's an INTJ, and 4 core is most commonly the domain of those with feeling preference, so its presentation looks much different than it would for an INFP 4 core, for instance. When I was much less familiar with personality theory, I had honestly mistaken Trent for an INFP. His Fi seems unusually prevalent and extremely outwardly obvious for an INTJ, which, again, I believe owes a lot to sx 4 core. I think is why many people mistype him as an INFJ (although there's nothing Fe-Ti about this dude whatsoever LMAO seriously measure his lyrics & social style next to Marilyn Manson's who is clear Fe-Ti axis) or as an ISFP. Dom Ni was really showcased with releases like Year Zero, and lyrics like Happiness in Slavery, Ruiner and The Hand That Feeds are all great examples of Ni-Te-Fi. To further support my core sx 4/Fi user typing: "Broken was secretly recorded from March to August 1992 in a variety of locations without the permission of the record label To ensure it could fester without Divine intervention Now they just leave me alone and let me do what I want Broken was a hard recording to make Broken is an ugly record made during an ugly time in my life Broken marks phase three of Nine Inch Nails: the becoming I am starting to realize what this is all about and I don't like it Flood starting out producing but I ended up I'm not sure why Maybe I am what everybody seems to think I am Nine Inch Nails is still not a real band with real people playing real instruments there will be no touring for Broken I am starting work on my new full-length recording - The Downward Spiral - which I hope will be finished the beginning of 1993 some will come along for the ride, some won't Trent Reznor, 1992" (from inside the sleeve of the Broken EP) "I realized that it wasn't going to be a big commercial success type record, there wasn't any real singles on there. It worked as a chunk of art, I thought, but not so much as, if someone said, "Lemme hear something off the new record," I was like, it's better to just hear the whole thing a couple times and understand what's going on rather than, here's a song off it, but you don't see the importance of that song, or how it sits in the whole [...] but to try to ask people in the disposable age [...] I don't think anybody really does that [...] now it's the day of have one good song and a flashy video and you've got a career." (from a Downward Spiral era interview) Onto lyrics: "Heaven's just a rumor she'll dispel as she walks me through the nicest parts of hell / I still dream of lips I never should have kissed / Well she knows exactly what I can't resist / And if she says come inside, I'll come inside for her / If she says give it all, I'll give everything to her [...] I'm just caught up in another of her spells / She's turning me into someone else / Every day I hope and pray this will end / But when I can, I do it all again" "You give me the reason, you give me control / I gave you my purity and my purity you stole / Did you think I wouldn't recognize this compromise? / Am I just too stupid to realize? / Stale incense, old sweat, and lies, lies, lies / It comes down to this / Your kiss, your fist / And the strain, it gets under my skin / Take in the extent of my sin" "Tried to save a place from the cuts and scratches / Tried to overcome my complications and my catches / Nothing ever grows and the sun doesn't shine all day / Try to save myself but myself keeps slipping away" "All the pieces don't fit but I really didn't give a sh/it, I never wanted to be like you" "I see you've left a mark here on my skin / I don't know where I end and where you begin" Also, lest we forget the most stereotypical unhealthy sx 4 lyric of all time, "My whole existence is flawed, you get me closer to God" • • • Might come back at some point and further add to this thread.
