EDIT: I think the opinion I originally posted here sounded a bit too controversial.

I consider Broken an LP.

I'm with you there too. I actually dislike Broken being labeled as an EP. When I think second NIN album, I hardly think TDS.

I kind of see it as album 1.5

My controversial opinion is that I hope TR never pays much attention to this thread because most of the controversial opinions posted here are wrong. XD For instance: there are not bad or boring NIN's albums or songs and Starfuckers is a great song that actually fits perfectly in TF. XD I could be all day replying to every controversial opinion posted here, but I'll just say you all are wrong because it's easier and faster. XD /FANBOY.

Opinions, by definition, cannot be wrong.

Grow up.

Exactly.

I don't enjoy Further Down The Spiral that much.
Same here.

While the downward spiral may be one of the best albums ever made, further down the spiral is not. agreed.

Does anyone else think that THINGS FALLING APART is one of NIN best??? I sure do

Hate to say it, but I've never been a big fan of The Wretched. Mid-tempo, lacking much in the way of dynamics. The piano line is great, but I've always been a bit bored by the song as a whole. The Frail, however is gorgeous.

I enjoy it, but wouldn't say it was one of their best.

This is a big one.....I don't think they're gonna win lots of awards for this score. ( I hope they do)

I don't think Fincher used it as well. there were many tracks not used, and some repeated. I think the score stands more as an album on it's own. ( an epic album! think Ghosts)

With TSN I hear those songs and remember the movie...it's not like that with tgwtdt....but I have only watched it once

As far as remix albums go, I'd definitely agree with you. It's among my favorites.

Agreed. With TSN, it felt like the music made the movie; it would be greatly diminished with anything else (especially if they'd used the studenty pop-rock themes that were originally intended). With Dragon Tattoo, the music is every bit as amazing and evocative, yet it doesn't gel as much into the movie. A lot of that is down to utilisation, as you say.

I think it does have one fundamental failing, though, in that it's rarely particularly dark - that's something that surprised me from my first listen. It's more mournful than anything else, and perhaps feels more like a mood setter than a direct score. Watching the film, I felt a lot of the grimmer scenes could have been greatly heightened by stronger, more sinister music. /Controversial opinion...

I can see not liking it, but "abomination"?

Which reminds me that I need to put the LH soundtrack on my i-tunes.

Probably an odd place to have my first post but here goes;

Sunspots was the best track on With Teeth.
Reptilian > Reptile.
Self Destruction Final is a hell of a lot of fun, especially that complete breakdown around 1:37.
10 Miles High probably makes it into my top 3.
I like Piggy more than Hurt, I like I Do Not Want This (that outro!) more than Closer, and The Becoming beats the hell out of everything else on Downward Spiral.
The Space In Between would also be in top 3 (if I expanded my top 3 to include HTDA, obviously).
If I'm in the right mood, I prefer the Dub Mix (yep) to the single of Hand That Feeds
Ghosts 14 got even better when it became Magnetic.
Pilgrimage might be my #1.

I second that.

However, Pilgrimage is probably my least favorite song on any full length NIN release.

{{okay, i have no such list but it physically pains me that the song showing such immense passion gets so frowned upon}}

Good, because when I will see you in hell I'm going to point out that Pilgrimage is on repeat for eternity.

I loved With Teeth. While it wasn't very heavy and didn't contain some of that Reznor anger we all love, it was just a different kind of NIN. All the love in the world, sunspots, the line begins to blur=goooooood. Right where it belongs is probably one of the best songs of all time, any genre, and timeline, forever.

I second both of these statements. I love "Sunspots" actually one of my all time favorite songs...and Pilgrimage is one of my least favorite NIN songs in general.

ie, PHM-(Purest Feeling)=Flood

^You think? You can't replace a manager?

Flood's impact on the sound of the first three NIN albums cannot be understated, and he was sorely missed on The Fragile.

 

01/06/12 11:17 AM

Malm was more than just a manager, he was the spine of NIN's non-musical side. He was a thief and a liar, but he still knew how to roll. Flood had little or no impact on PHM and wasn't even on Purest Feeling. And he got Trent to not put out Just Do It, which means one more NIN song we don't have tongue sticking out smiley

Sheepdean posted:

Are you sure about this? As far as I know he was responsible for a lot of refinements we hear between PHM and purest feeling, which is pretty important. He's listed as the producer.

 

01/06/12 11:36 AM

As one of the producers: I know he was the sole one for Down In It, aside from that, it was a mishmash of production from as many producers as one would expect of a dubstep track!

 

01/10/12 12:58 AM

- I really dug With Teeth, without caveats
– I think The Slip and Ghosts are dramatically better albums than Pretty Hate Machine
- Every tour had its merits, but I echo some of the previous posters in this 20-page volume and I think Wave Goodbye produced some of the finest shows in Nine Inch Nails' history
- Where Is Everybody? is a good song, but the remix on Things Falling Apart is truly excellent, and the only remix I prefer over the original.

Plank, walking it.
