The best album ever made. Thank you so much for this, Trent. I'm so proud that I got a copy of that.

The Fragile is a Masterpeice

Could someone please post big images of the David Carson photos of this era? Particularly of the flowers?

you will find most of Carsons art form this era in his book "Trek", which you can get quite cheap at ebay and amazon. it's worth the buy, trust me!

mmmmm I love this album!

i can remember standing in line outside the soundwaves in houston to buy The Fragile. there was a cd release party, though it wasn't much of a party. they were just opening the store at midnight so they could officially start selling the album. i bought it, went straight home and listened to it all the way thru.

listening to it still brings up memories and images of where i was in my life at the time.

so HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

This Is hard for me to put in words i've been wanting to say this for weeks but I held off until now
not much I can really say about The Fragile .........I can't part ways with the whole album Itself not even
The left disc or Right disc There both great I love The Wretched,Somewhat Damaged, Starfuckers,Please,Into The Void
countless others off this record even hough I bought this album 9 years ago instead of the time it came out unlike the rest of the NIN fanbase who bought their copy 10 years ago today.......This was The First NIN album I ever gotten even before I would get pretty hate machine and the downward spiral hence why I became a fan In the first place but anyways I love The Fragile It rocks It has Its quiet sides along with Its harsh agressive angry emotional sides. made alot of sense to me when I got this album In 2000 cause I was going through a lot of horrific stuff up and down with myself and everything else.....but I can relate to the songs on this album many ways possible.

Nothing more for me to say except The Fragile Rocks and I will always listen and love It and thats it.
Happy 10 to The Fragile shame that Trent wont get much imput or control in this re-release of the remarkable album
that took years to create since interscope still owns the rights to this album and the others they decide what the final artwork
and what gets Included In this re-release.

Happy 10 The Fragile

Question: Is there a site where the nin.com photos are archived from the fragile era?

Notice the world ULTIMATE? in caps! Its going to be... err... ULTIMATE! ^^

I hope The Fragile had fun on it's birthday yesterday. It better have. It's passed out on my couch with two women, some blood, and everyone left my place a mess.

Okay, I feel really stupid now, but someone please tell me: what does "remastered" actually mean?

Good news in any case.

In honor of the ten year anniversary I whipped this up for myself (a few days late, I know - didn't have time to do it on the actual day.) I made it for me but if anyone wants it, here ya go.

One of the most underrated, underappreciated albums of the 90's. Everytime I listen to it it gets better.

I can't believe it's been 10 years already!

I'm looking forward to the re-issue....

My bet is this will be a mini-box set kinda thing with the ENTIRE Fragile on it (including the extended and alternate versions only available on the original vinyl, "10 Miles High," "Appendage," "The New Flesh."
