Yeah, PHM is one of those where you look at the body of work and the Sesame Street song starts playing. But between the two, it's a hard choice. I think the Deviations and other variations made me like Fragile less because it's just too complete. Also not the version Trent hinted at for years and years and more years so I think all that together burned me out on it a bit.Ello Sailor wrote:Been listening to lot of Reznor lately. I still can't decide which is the better album out of The Fragile and The Downward Spiral. Pretty Hate Machine is not in the conversation--that's all I know.
As for TDS, it's definitely a specific mood album, not something I can just throw on.
