Reznor's Crowing Achievement

Many would argue that the crowning achievement of NIN would be The Downward Spiral but I believe anyone who knows the backstory of most of the songs on The Fragile can really get a grip into Reznors mindset during the making of the album. A lot of the songs are about drug addiction and the death of loved ones and that emotion comes pouring out with most of the tracks on the album.

I always get goosebumps when I hear the eerie piano notes of The Frail and the encompassing vocals of The Great Below and I wouldn't have it any other way.
