The guitar-heavy opener, \"Head Like a Hole,\" is the most aggressive track on the album and proved to be the signature song for Reznor's initial breakthrough, but much of the disc sounds like Depeche Mode in a particularly bad mood.\n\u003cbr\u003eAll of the tracks on PRETTY HATE MACHINE are based on synthesizer lines and programmed beats, with other elements--such as the distinctive bass on \"Sanctified\" and sampled explosions on \"That's What I Get\"--filling out the sound. Despite Reznor's morose lyrics, a number of HATE MACHINE's finest moments are energetic dance tunes, particularly \"Down in It\" and the surging \"Sin.\" Oddly enough, Reznor's fiercer--and seemingly less accessible--subsequent work (the BROKEN EP and THE DOWNWARD SPIRAL) led directly to his mainstream success, but PRETTY HATE MACHINE reveals where the Nine Inch Nails aesthetic started out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 2011-07-12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 2011-07-12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Nine Inch Nails","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45274709327916,"sku":"OLI0PC-TH41-Y9","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0711\/4755\/2812\/files\/nine-inch-nails-pretty-hate-machine-reissue_9fNwR.jpg?v=1770833836","url":"https:\/\/b-side-records-vintage-2.myshopify.com\/products\/nine-inch-nails-pretty-hate-machine-reissue","provider":"B-Side Records \u0026 Vintage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
