My favorite is The Fragile. I was at a show on the small venue tour in 2005 at Stubb's BBQ in Austin, Texas. It was awesome!! I saw him again that fall in San Antonio. This time it was in a huge amphitheater like usual and it was a rock show!! My husband isn't as much of a fan as I am, but he enjoyed the show. I would love to see some of the stuff he is doing now. I guess he just recently did a show with a stringed quartet...maybe in California?

That's awesome! I saw him in 1994 when Marilyn Manson was just coming out and he opened for NIN. I had awesome tickets to see him last year but Hurricane Wilma hit and the concert was cancelled and never rescheduled :(

For Me its the Fragile. I enjoyed With Teeth but i felt that it strayed away from the original NIN sound.

They are an industrial band that fuses rock into their music therefore making then also industrial rock. Trent Reznor is basically the entire band, in studio he plays almost all the instruments and for shows recruits different musicians.

My favorite Nine Inch Nails album is "fixed". I used to own all the albums starting with the band Trent Reznor was first in up until 1998. Then they all got stolen and I stopped collecting. But I still love NIN! Trent Reznor is a great composer/musican.

I also like "head like a hole" because I can relate with past relationships when he says "id rather die than give you control" it has been an empowering song for me

Pretty Hate Machine is my favorite NIN CD with "Head Like A Hole" being my favorite song.
Trent Reznor is one of the most powerfully creative people in this paticular music genre...
His pounding, driving rythmic backbeats and furious command of noise and silence can make anybody dance their behinds off! :)
I like NIN's other CD's, too!

I can't pick a favorite cd since I love`em all but I can tell you my favorite song! BURN!!! lol
this world rejects me
this world threw me away
this world never gave me a chance
this world gonna have to pay
i don't believe in your institutions
i did what you want me to
like the cancer in your system
i've got a little surprise for you
something inside of me
has opened up its eyes
why did you put it there
did you not realize
this thing inside of me
it screams the loudest sound
sometimes i think i could
burn
i look down there, where you’re standing
flock of sheep out on display
with all your lies wrapped up around you
i can take it all away
something inside of me
has opened up its eyes
why did you put it there
did you not realize
something inside of me
it screams the loudest sound
sometimes i think i could
i'm gonna burn this whole world down
i never was a part of you (burn)
I am your savior (burn)
I am corruption (burn)
I am the angel (burn)
of your destruction (burn)
I am perversion (burn)
Secret desire (burn)
I am your future (burn)
Swallowed up in fire (burn)

I like downward spiral (well, I like everything nin), but it seems like that is the one album that got really commercialized, I like the earlier stuff a little better.

My top fav songs by them are

The hand that feeds
I love the Fragile and my fav line in that song is
"she reads the minds of all the people as they pass her by hoping someone will see her... If i could fix my self id die... but its to late for me ..."

I think my all time favorite Nails cd is The Fragile, I suppose mainly as it was a cd that came out and was listened to heavily when my lover and I were first courting. Year Zero is amazing as well.

It´s hard to me say what it´s my favorite cd, I have 3 options:
the fragile
the downward spiral
Broken
the fragile I think that reznor made a great and very creativity album, he experiment a lot.
the downward spiral is a break up in the 90's era.
but broken showed the real reznor and music. it has a lot o new sounds that in the earlier reznor used in other albums.
I think that Broken is my favorite album

Pretty Hate Machine is my favorite. But I love the fact that every Nine Inch Nails album has a totally different sound.

The downward spiral, its such a rich album and it keeps on surprising me every time. Dont like Year Zero :( I think its becoming too comercial, perhaps I like only 4 songs on that album. Any way i hope Trent goes back to his old mode of music.

My favorite album of all time is actually an EP called Broken. It has wish, gave up, and Phsyical on it. Although it's short and sweet it has some of the most powerful, angry, industrialized music that I have had the pleasure of hearing. I also like a lot of the stuff on Spiral and Pretty Hate Machine, but Broken stands above them.
