10 Greatest Diss Tracks In Rock Music History

10. Starf***ers Inc. - Nine Inch Nails

Rock and roll is probably never going to run short on heartbreaker songs. We've had songs from the glory days of rock and roll about loving em and leaving em, some of them even called Heartbreaker no less. When you find yourself on the other end of the spectrum though, Trent Reznor showed us that things can turn ugly really quick.

During the period between working on the Downward Spiral and The Fragile, Reznor was actually in a short term relationship with Courtney Love, which ended pretty badly if the lyrics here are any indication. In this case, Trent isn't just mad that it's over...he's actively trying to drag Courtney's name through the mud. Though there were millions of people getting ready to call love the Yoko Ono of her generation, hearing Trent talk about her just trying to fake her way to the top is a little more harsh than your average breakup song.

And as if you needed it spelled out for you, just have to look at the music video for the song to get the full picture, which features an actress who's very clearly supposed to be Love playing up being as trashy as possible. Then again, this is one of the first (and certainly not the last) times Courtney Love has managed to have a harsh effect on the '90s rock scene.
