lmao.

if you don't get it — it's his first album

as nin albums became less driven by chunky 80s synthesisers and more driven by guitars, they got worse. however, the quake soundtrack and ghosts I-IV are excellent, in my opinion.

I find myself listening to year zero a lot, maybe I'm too big a fan of NIN in general. Something I like from every album.

I’ve been a NIN fan since way back and I felt like every album was their best before falling off with pretty much every album when it first releases. After a couple of listens and thinking I’m not gonna ever get into the new stuff, I catch myself having songs off their newest album stuck in my head only to repeat the process with the next one.

This happens to Queens of the Stone Age with me too but less so. I always go into a new Qotsa album with the understanding that it’s going to take a couple listens before it becomes my new favorite album.

I really enjoyed year zero as well. It felt fresh, there was a decent amount of experimentation, and I appreciated the lyrical themes

I would push this to The Downward Spiral.

Broken is my absolute favorite. But starting with The Perfect Drug he began to do nothing but suck at ever greater intensity.

I was going to come in and say The Fragile
