Love this CD. Sounds really good. Trent Reznor is a musical genius. This CD has fantastic beats and one of my favorite tracks is "Terrible Lie"

Although Nine Inch Nails mastermind Trent Reznor became theposter boy for industrial rock in the early 1990s, his '89 debut, PRETTY HATE MACHINE, actually has a stronger footholdin '80s synth-pop. The guitar-heavy opener, "Head Like a Hole," is the most aggressive track on the album and proved tobe the signature song for Reznor's initial breakthrough, but much of the disc sounds like Depeche Mode in a particularly bad mood. All of the tracks on PRETTY HATE MACHINE are based on synthesizer lines and programmed beats, with other elements--such as the distinctive bass on "Sanctified" and sampled explosions on "That's What I Get"--filling out the sound. Despite Reznor's morose lyrics, a number of HATE MACHINE'sfinest moments are energetic dance tunes, particularly "Down in It" and the surging "Sin." Oddly enough, Reznor's fiercer--and seemingly less accessible--subsequent work (the BROKEN EP and THE DOWNWARD SPIRAL) led directly to his mainstream success, but PRETTY HATE MACHINE reveals where the Nine Inch Nails aesthetic started out. - AmazonRead full review
