Yeah it's like a downward spiral or something

NIN has been my favorite band for about a year now. My favorite album is cliche, but it has to be TDS.

S_Shinji · 07-06-2009, 12:42 PM

Actually to rank their albums I would go

TDS
PHM
The Fragile
Broken (ep whatever)
Year Zero
With Teeth
The Slip
Ghosts

I loved the Fragile... and recently got hold of a copy of Ghosts, which is actually kinda cool to these ears.... but I am somewhat of a sucker for darker flavored instrumental type music...

S_Shinji · 07-06-2009, 11:19 PM

Ghosts is great but it just can't compare with his other work.

Pretty Hate Machine is great stuff, holds up flawlessly. Shame that can only be said about half his later work.

Listened to The Downward Spiral today,(haven't listened to it for a long time) and man, is that a damn good album.

Most of his albums are great, but he will never be able to top the Downward Spiral. Though I love all the industrial stuff in it, I think my favorite song on the album will always be Hurt.

Yeah, Hurt is great. The Johnny Cash version is incredible as well.

There are so many good tunes on TDS but my 3 favorites would probably be The Becoming, Piggy, and Hurt.

I have a soft spot for Reptile...something about all the crazy noises going on in that song that just does it for me. So I guess if I had to pick 3 it would be Hurt, Reptile, and Piggy.

Edit: That sample in the beginning of the Becoming is from a movie called Robot Jox...one of the most hilariously corny sci fi movies ever conceived. I used to watch that movie a lot as a kid. One day it was on tv and a scene where a robot crushed a bunch of bystanders was on and all the screams sounded very familiar. I put on the Becoming and sure enough, it was the same sample. I loved Trent even more after that day.
