This is when NIN started sucking 😔

To clarify, NIN used to be electronic industrial. Listen to The Downward Spiral and tell me With Teeth isn't worse.

    I like NIN in all their incarnations for different reasons. Personally, I feel like he became more creative after With Teeth since he was less self destructive. The only album I can't really get behind is Hesitation Marks, but I appreciate that he is in a better place mentally, and Hesitation Marks represents that.

    After The Fragile he fell into depression and heavy substance abuse. When he finally cleaned up we got With Teeth. So the main difference is sober Trent vs fucked up Trent. And sadly fucked up musicians make great music. Still glad he’s still around and even tho his music ain’t as great I still enjoy it.

    Yep, they're basically an entirely different band at this point.

    (I know "the band" is technically just Trent, but what the entity Nine Inch Nails was putting out at this point sounded like a completely different entity aside from Trent's voice)
