This is a normal post I listened to Pretty Hate Machine the other day, for the first time in YEARS
A couple of tracks still sound alright, the rest has aged really badly.

This is a normal post The music
or the production? Because I do think the songs are well written, but Trent Reznor was very much in the thrall of the tech of the time.

I used to love the Seinfeld-Style-Sampled-Slap of the original, but fuck me Sanctified is in another realm with Pino playing on it.

This is a normal post with that stuff the music is inseparable from the production really, innit
Sin sounds very 80s, and Down In It was always a bit shit; it's a ripoff of Skinny Puppy with a godawful attempt at rapping.

Something I Can Never Have is one of the tracks that's aged well.

This is a normal post Wasn't Reznor's wife the voice of SHODAN?

This is a normal post God, I thought it was garbage the day it came out
Some record shop guy said "Hey, you like industrial stuff - you'll love this." I took it back.

They got better. Usually it's the other way round "I liked their early stuff" beard-stroking.

Still, they're one of the only bands I've ever walked out on - shite live experience. I'd far rather hear them in a club.

This is a normal post nine inch nails weren't really industrial when they started out, I reckon
Obviously clear influences from Ministry, Depeche Mode etc, but not 'industrial' in the same way as Throbbing Gristle or Skinny Puppy.

This is a normal post Exactly -
I was most upset. Where's my screeching dalek vocals and fuzzy horror film samples?

This is a normal post We didn't walk out, but yes, probably the worst gig I've been to.
Awful sound, drawn out meandering versions of the less "danceable" tracks, and a few black silhouettes standing in front of a red screen for the entire thing - could have been anyone up there.

This is a normal post I seem to recall
that the digipack of 1996's antichrist superstar contains a photo of him with a tube going from his dick to twiggy's mouth

And now people have started accusing him of being a pervert
