That's because you're too busy sliding a mile six inches at a time on Maynard's dick. Downward Spiral is better than Ænema :Q

Well to be fair, I did give TDS 15 listens in my car before I decided that NIN wasn't doin it for me.

Then again, Tool didn't do it for me for like, 3 years. SO, back to the cabinet NIN goes for a while.

I DO need to get PHS and the Fragile though and see if they are a better fit for me. I need to ease into NIN like I ease into a stinkfist - knuckle deep inside the border line. It hurts me a little but it's something I'll get used to.

Have you tried With Teeth? It's extremely approachable. Then again, it feels more radio-friendly than anything else Trent's produced, so maybe that's no good.

Isn't The Fragile the one with all the instrumental tracks? It works as an album, but it's confusing as hell when one of those starts playing with my zune on random...

Dunno, I may or may not have it. Will have to check it out when I get home. Thanks for the heads up.

I've been heavily into Undertow as of late, makes it hard to listen to anything else. Can listen to prison sex 24/7. Also desperate for a Salival cd

PHM is so drastically different from the other albums, its tough to make a direct comparison. I'd say PHM is still my favorite, though... it was just so revolutionary for its time.

I used to love The Downward Spiral, now I really don't care for it. I could never get into The Fragile. I still like and listen to Pretty Hate Machine.

The Fragile and the bsides, specifically the second disc of Halo 17 are the best thing Trent has ever made and probably ever will make. I love everything he's put out but those to me are the pinnacle.
