Rumor has it that Pretty Hate Machine was written by Trent Reznor with a great deal of the anger coming from his breakup with former girlfriend Tori Amos.. That's just what I heard.. This in my opinion is the best NIN CD that has ever been released to date.. Every song is good, there is no good songs scattered throughout the CD like most artist.. Now ( The Downward Spiral ) was a really good CD from NIN as well, but it only ranks an extremely close second to Pretty Hate Machine.. This all time classic CD was produced by Trent Reznor himself & engineered/mixed by John Fryer with additional help from Keith Leblanc, kennan Keating and Ken Quartarone.. All songs written, arranged, programmed and performed by Trent Reznor 1989 TVT Music, INC. The order of songs on the CD go as follows: 1. head like a hole. 2. terrible lie. 3. down in it. 4. sanctified. 5. something i can never have. 6. kinda i want to. 7. sin. 8. that's what i get. 9. the only time. 10. ringfinger. All 10 songs are really creative and forever etched in my mind but there are 4 songs that really stand out for myself and people that I have talked to about Pretty Hate Machine.. First is the first song ( head like a hole ) That is the most popular song from this CD.. Next is ( the only time ) which is my # 1 song but it goes right along with the song that follows it ( ringfinger )... Last of the best 4 songs would have to be ( something i can never have ) the lyrics on this one are near perfection.. I hope the people out there with open minds towards music especially the Nine Inch Nails fans give Pretty Hate Machine a listen to, because it's with me forever....Read full review
