It can be how you connect with the lyrics, or the sound of the music, it doesn't matter. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 01/31/2011 11:36AM by scott_pawsey.

I think there's just a lot great songs with deep lyrical content that we can all relate to on some level. I think his previous albums were all great in their own unique ways, but I think this is Trent's most honest album, especially since he sobered up and had to face himself and the brutal reality that life can bring on.

Agreed. With Teeth is my choice, too.

The tale of being in a place which is horrible and you feel like you're going insane but eventually working you way out and going through all the different bumps to finally be able to deal with it and go onto new and greater things in order to be happy. It has a funny parallel for me.

It's helped me through a lot of times in life particularly those teenage years. Through the years the meaning of The Fragile changes in a subtle way and I just love that The last 3 tracks on YZ are great though kind of in a Fragiley way

racefaceec90 member Joined: 01/13/11 Location: devizes uk Posts: 17	i'm afraid that i will have to pick 3 albums.the downward spiral (because it was what got me into nin,and by gum i can relate to it,as well as everyone else here.it definitely puts words to what i cannot,but am feeling) broken for the sheer visceralness of the whole album (i actually find it more violent than tds sometimes/sometimes not though) and finally the fragile for the places that it takes me to when i listen to it.jeysus how can someone be that gifted (bastard/only kidding trent)peace.

xabundantiax member Joined: 10/09/09 Location: Salem%2C NH Posts: 218	With Teeth, no question. I don't know what it is about that album, literally I like every song except for one. It is just amazing. I love all their music, but 9 times outta 10, when I'm listening to NIN, it's definitely With Teeth. I'm just drawn to it. There are random songs from other albums I connect alot with, but not the entire album, regardless I still listen to everything from them. It's a problem haha Edited 1 time(s).
