Predecessor Pretty Hate Machine hardly hinted at the ferocious scrapes and broken-glass textures Reznor would unleash five years later on Spiral. The term “industrial” itself describes his relentless aural assault so accurately you can’t listen without imagining whole factories of grinding guitars and razor-sharp percussion hammering down on your psyche. If Machine was the breakup album, Spiral was the descent to the very gates of its protagonists’ self-loathing hell. (Marz Simpson, Treblezine.com, 15 August 2008)
“When I rented the place, I didn’t realize it was that house,” claimed NIN’s Trent Reznor about recording Spiral in the onetime home of Manson-family victim Sharon Tate. Despite “a million electrical disturbances,” Reznor made the most successful album of his career — a cohesive, willful, and overpowering meditation on the central theme running through all of NIN’s videos, live shows, music, and lyrics: control. (au.Rolling Stone.com, 27 October 2021)
Despite The Downward Spiral seeming so unpalatable – the sound, as Trent put it in 1998, of “shedding skin, taking a layer off and analysing it” – the album became an unprecedented success. Upon its release, it reached Number Two in the Billboard 200. ... “All I hope is that there are a few people who’ll think, ‘Wow, I’m not the only person who thought those things,’” Trent said upon its release. The album has since sold a remarkable 3.7 million copies in the U.S. alone. (James Hickie, Kerrang.com, 8 March 2022)
