How To Destroy Angels - a trio comprising of Trent Reznor, wife Mariqueen Maandig and musical genius Atticus Ross – is offering a free preview of a cover of “Is Your Love Strong Enough” originally by Brian Ferry. The song was released early December of last year and has since been played over 29,000 times on the official How To Destroy Angels blog.

The song is a very soothing with a lot of ambient moments. Mariqueen does almost all of the vocal chores on the track – and yes, as her surname would suggest she is very much Pinay. She was the lead vocalist of the band West Indian Girl for the most part of the last decade and was married to the NIN frontman October 2009 – just months after Reznor and co. played in Manila.

The song is part of the Girl With The Dragon Tattoo sound track. Reznor and Ross were the brains behind the Academy-Award winning score for The Social Network. The pair were finalists to the Golden Globes for the same category but they ultimately lost to Ludovic Bource for the Artist.
