My Modern Mozart...Music That Inspires You Write-Off

Date of Review:  Feb 3, 2002
The Bottom Line: I was asked to write about music that inspires me, and this is what I chose. Need I say more?
Review: Happy birthday to me!

As many of you may know, Trent Reznor has been my biggest musical inspiration, and his band, Nine Inch Nails, ranks as one of my favorites of all time. Accordingly, Trent?s second full-length studio album, The...

Trent Reznor is my hero. (5-star album W/O)

Date of Review:  Aug 1, 2001
The Bottom Line: If you have any interest in industrial, hard rock, or metal rock music, you owe it to yourself to pick this one up. You definitely won't regret it.
Review: Well here I go, involved in my first write-off. Seeing as how the topic is a 5-star album, I searched through my cd collection, trying to find that one perfect album. I looked at some Smashing Pumpkins, Our Lady Peace, Furnaceface, Hayden, KMFDM,...

Spiraling Further Toward Immortality

Date of Review:  Apr 2, 2004
The Bottom Line: Reznor teaches us: "there is worse pain than yours."
Review: Nine Inch Nails had already released two stellar albums and won a Grammy. But it was 1994's The Downward Spiral that took the industrial metal band to the apex of its acclaim and popularity. Meshing the catchiness of Pretty Hate Machine and the...

Trent Reznor has Revolutionized Modern Music

Date of Review:  Nov 26, 2000
Review: This is an amazing album. As with any great album, the songs on it work independently but also fit together to form one unit. You will not like this album the first time you hear it. This is an album that grows on you, one that needs to be listened...

My Empire of Dirt

Date of Review:  Oct 2, 2003
The Bottom Line: One of the best albums out there. Go get it.
Review: The train rattles through the early darkness of an October evening. Rain spatters against the window, inches from my face, as I peer into the pitch darkness beyond: my own reflection more visible than anything beyond the train. It's almost as if...

"And You Could Have It All, My Empire of Dirt"-Reznor's "Self-Destruct" Masterpiece

Date of Review:  Jan 11, 2002
The Bottom Line: A Brilliant Achievement from the mind of Trent Reznor and his cohorts of Nine Inch Nails. One of the most brilliant albums of the 1990s.
Review:
In 1992, Nine Inch Nails and its leader Trent Reznor had one of the most incredible periods that year when their 1992 EP Broken was an instant success while their 1989 debut album Pretty Hate Machine was still in the mind of fans and critics who...

Songs To Be Felt From The Inside To

Date of Review:  Jun 16, 2005
The Bottom Line: The closest industrial will ever get to being a teen phenomenon. Trent either venting or pretending to, on a monumental scale. Creative use of animal imagery.
Review: I can just imagine the expression on the faces of record kooks upon hearing the rough mixes of "The Downward Spiral". The guys at Interscope must've been immensely concerned about the mental well-being of Trent Reznor and probably wondered if their...

Halo 8: The Downward Spiral

Date of Review:  May 9, 2008
The Bottom Line: The best NIN album ever. Never doubt it.
Review: I blame the video for "Closer". Before that, I'd heard the name Nine Inch Nails, but hadn't given it a second thought. Just another band. They're not Prince, or Bowie, so how good could they possibly be? But, man, that video . . .

Problem...

A Spiral Into The Overrated

Date of Review:  Mar 8, 2004
The Bottom Line: See Review.
Review: Unfortunately there's going to be two ways to look at this album. One from the perspective of an industrial nut, basing his opinion on experience from more extreme bands in the genre, or the less experienced, first taste of industrial listener. I...

A Title Doesn't Do This Album Justice...

Date of Review:  Dec 17, 2003
The Bottom Line: The Downward Spiral is a reflection of society's attempt to come to grips with itself, and searching for a purpose in a world that has been bogged down with despair...
Review: To be honest, I think that in a lot of ways Trent Reznor is to music what Clive Barker is to movies and books in the last few decades. Hell, in the booklet for "Pretty Hate Machine," he even credits Clive among various other artists for inspiration...
