Pretty Hate Machine tho

No,it's not, I won't disagree with you upon the energy or agression, but that's all it got, the emotional impact of TDS is much higher, the fact it isn't constant agression makes "Big Man With A Gun" hit so fucking hard.

Variety is important, variety of emotions, Broken has really just one, anger, meanwhile every single album from NIN is much more varied, they take you on a journey, Broken feels more like constant hard punches without much of context to any of them, they're still effective.


But being on a constraint until the song/album suddenly loses its shit is much more hard hitting for me (Stuff like I Do Not Want This).

Not OP but the thematic diversity and emotional consistency are exactly the reason I prefer it to TDS.

>>71088466
I love to look at each NIN album as some form of a journey, which is why I prefer Broken over any other release, I love its songs, some of the best, but as one package it's almost just a collection of songs without any theme through it.

I could also go without the covers. The real ending for me is Gave Up.

This

Also With_Teeth is my favorite.

Love With_Teeth, it feels like Trent's journey to normal life and finding a new path. The three final songs are such hard hitters.

trips confirm

GOD MONEY

PHM has always been the best, most consistent album.

Recently I'm seeing a lot of Nine Inch Nails stuff here. Good.

Not really

>Most consistent
It isn't, that award goes to The Dowwnard Spiral, With_Teeth, Year Zero Hesitation Marks and Not The Actual Events.

The best? Not by a long shot, every other work in the discography is better.

>>71088178
I agree

broken is best

The Downward Spiral is extremely inconsistent
it goes from painfully weak to very intense very often

>>71088449
Lack of variety in emotions may be why it's an EP.

>>71089528
Not The Actual Events does have a variety

>>71089519
The Downward Spiral has no single bad track

>>71089793
no NIN album has a bad track

prove me wrong, I dare you
