Thoughts on The Downward Spiral?

objectively one of the best produced albums of the 90's

One of the best, if not THE best, album of the 90s.
>inb4 "HURR DURR THE LYRICISM SUX"
before saying that, think about if your only frame for good lyricism is /mu/core shit, and then realize that that's not the only way to be a good lyricist

Fantastic.

agreed, only a few other albums come close, and the lyricism is great

I WANNA FUCK YOU LIKE AN ANIMAL

ive never heard of it but if its anything like the day i was born its probably a massive dissapointment

Best listened to loud. Very, very fucking loud.

tfw when I was younger, Eraser was the scariest song imaginable and I made it scarier by thinking that in the final seconds as Trent's screaming "KILL ME" turned into static, he's saying "SAVE ME!" in the static

>that song Trent was going to put in just before the track 'The Downward Spiral' with the only lyrics being: "Just do it, nobody cares."

My third favorite song off Atrocity Exhibtion

How much of an influence do you guys think Foetus had on his stuff?

>>70811567
>one-man-band of theatrical industrial rock

the similarities end there, but i feel like trent must have at least respected thirlwell

>>70809453
His peak sellout album; Closer was the perfect example of his transition from someone doing interesting shit to someone doing 'edgy' crap that fratboys and kids in their early teens could scream along to.

>but i feel like trent must have at least respected thirlwell
There are remixes by Thirlwell on Fixed, so he probably likes his music

>>70809453
GOTTA FIGURE IT OUT

>>70811567
not so much, Trent loves Foetus but he never adapted Foetus' chaotic style, his biggest influence by far is Coil, I am pretty sure he must also have heard Psychic TV since he liked Pink Floyd too

>>70811668
>I am pretty sure he must also have heard Psychic TV
Wasn't Psychic TV the ones that made that fake snuff film that was basically the inspiration for the Broken movie?

>>70809453
Masterpiece
He is new eno

wtf are you saying?
Closer is one of the most sexy/creepiest songs ever

The video (directors cut) is pretty good
