Pretty Hate Machine is a great album. Probably hasnt aged entirely well, but **** there are some awesome songs on there. Terrible Lie is my favourite NIN song and Sin wouldnt be too far behind either.
The live versions of Sin, Terrible Lie and Head like a Hole on And All That Could Have Been are awesome, especially Terrible Lie, better than the original studio recording.

Great track. Its made for the live show.

I can understand why people who are just getting into NIN wouldnt like PHM, as its 20 years old and the production on the original does sound very outdated, though the remastered version is quite a bit better. But still, its a ****ing good album, very catchy songs and very consistent. And as you said, the songs when performed live go up another level.

Pretty Hate Machine is a ****ing amazing album. And definitely right, they go up another notch when live. Terrible Lie was freakin awesome.

After being a little underwhelmed with the studio efforts post The Fragile, I was viewing his marriage/collaboration with a little trepidation. It's hard to judge on the strength of one song, but so far, so good! :thumbsu:
