The Fragile was not good. At all. It was industrial rock for an MTV generation. I mean, Starfuckers? Really? (Not to derail the topic.)
I think anyone into The Fragile at all is even going to let you talk shit on Starfuckers. Take a shot on any other track plz.
They're all bland and cliched. "We're in this Together"? Dear goodness, how many times do I hear lifeless alternative rock songs like that on the radio? The Fragile was overrated simply because it came out immediately after The Downward Spiral and shared some stylings with it. I'd liken it to how Rolling Stone said For Those About to Rock was AC/DC's best album because it came out after Black in Black and had a similar sound. Both artists had a seminal album, followed by a repetitive album that added nothing to their library but a cliched album that fit with the music of the time instead of advancing their music in any way. The vast majority of songs on The Fragile sound like songs any alternative rock band of the time could've came up with. Of course, Nine Inch Nails fans never want to admit anything Reznor's done isn't as good as they've made it out to be. When With Teeth was released, everyone on here was saying how fucking amazing it was, and now the vast majority of Nine Inch Nails fans will fully admit it's pretty much shit. Anyways, we're going off topic now... Adema with Tim sounds bad. They were on a good path with Bobby on vocals, and I don't know why they'd screw it up in order to work with Marky again.
Back on topic guys. And Ant, it's patently obvious you chose NIN because Casey was the one who spoke negatively of them. You should have either accepted that Casey has the right to criticize or you should have defended Adema. You should not have brought another band into this because you wanted to make it personal and troll Casey.
