Comment: Have you ever listen to a CD years after you bought it and wondered what the hell was I thinking? Well this is not one of those CD's I still listen to it and it rocks just as much as it did when I first listened to it. If you are interested in nine inch nails this is a good CD to start with

Summary: NIN Halo 2 - Pretty Hate Machine
Comment: Gah, words can't describe this album, besides awesome and ground breaking. This was the first LP release from Trent Reznor which put NIN on the map and brought Industrial Rock to the mainstream in the America . Possibly one of the best NIN albums, put I don't know about all that. Released in 1989 with singles from the album in 1988 and 1990... no doubt about it amazing album. Anyone who likes electronica should check this album out...and pretty much every NIN album.

Summary: Honesty
Comment: This I would have to say is there best album ever!!! This is what NIN was all about, not that popy crap you here now, if you want popy crap go listen to Justin Temberlake and die, and stop ruining good bands like these to go gay. This and Downward spiral are there best, must own, if you have emotions you would agree and love this, thank you Hope to help.

Summary: Amazing album
Comment: I've been a die-hard NIN fan for years, and 'Pretty Hate Machine' holds a special place in my heart as the album that introduced me to the band and Trent Reznor's beautiful music. From the very first track, you are drawn into a world of emptiness, longing, anger, power, pain and pleasure. The sound, power and raw emotion are incredible. very different from some of NIN's later albums, but still amazing and perfect for new fans.

Summary: Kinda I Have To.
Comment: Industrial was just coming to a point at this time. Pretty Hate Machine was the point. It did what British Steel did for metal in 1980. Came out of nowhere. I was at a club in late '89 and heard both 'Head Like a Hole' and Peter Murphy's 'Cuts You Up'. I saw both artists in March the following year at Tipitina's in New Orleans. Those connections were tightly bound. Nobody has released an album by themself so raw and original with such impact. Hello Cleveland!
