Without a doubt.
But it doesn't beat The Backstreet Boys... They're heavy, man!

I was listening to The Fragile today for the first time in like a year and besides the lyrics being kinda goofy it actually has some cool guitar sounds and overall interesting textures to it. I wish Trent Reznor would make an entirely instrumental album because the instrumentals are amazing, its funny how because its a double album people called them filler. :roll: . anythoughts on them? |

Fragile was a good and underrated album. Obviously pre-Fragile NIN was excellent too. I think With Teeth was pretty terrible though. |

A Downward Spiral is my favorite album of theirs. Trent Reznor is a very good composer, musician, and vocalist. His lyrics can range from a bit empty to very deeply melancholic and introspective poetry. The music can at times be a bit too chaotic, but very well done and composed nonetheless. Much respect to Nine Inch Nails. |

Glad to see some of you one here like 'em. Always been one of my favourite bands, With Teeth was a disappointment. I actually really liked it at first but now just despise it. Fragile suffers a bit from double album syndrome. Too much filler. Downward Spiral is one of the best non-metal albums of the 90'. |

Indeed, his instrumentals are fantastic. Ripe With Decay is such a depressing song. The ones he does on the Lost Highway sondtrack are excellent as well. That's a very underrated soundtrack, actually. Angelo Badlamenti rules. |

I always kind of hated NIN, not b/c of the sound, but because Trent ripped off everyone from Skinny Puppy to Ministry and is a dumb druggie. Maybe I'll gi'it another go... |

He actually admitted to ripping off Skinny Puppy, and claiming they are a huge influence. |

The Downward Spiral, you guys say? |

You hit the nail on the head. I really liked The Fragile, especially the Left disc, but With Teeth was a huge letdown. |

Trent's voice is pretty much the focal point of the majority of his work. I can see how you wouldn't like it, he can get pretty whiny at times. No use in trying to force yourself to like it. |

You're right. Maybe by the time I'm 40 and have taken that many drugs, I'll be in the mood for that sort of whining. Until then... |

The next time I hear Closer I'm personally going to bite off the kneecap of the unfortunate standing next to me and beat the poor bastard to death with it. :x |
