    I don't have the words to describe how powerful or influential this album is for me. Even if you aren't a NIN fan, give it a listen because it is moving to say the least.

    If you still aren't sure about this album, have a look at the lyric meanings.

    IMO, This was NIN's best album by a country mile.
