I've heard "with teeth" and some of Trent's newer stuff. Took a listen to some of "the fragile" today and it really is amazing. Very dark but very good.

Which other NIN albums are worth getting into?

Many opinions just a few threads down.


Listen to them in chronological order, and experience the journey.
ALL the "old" stuff is great.

Yup.

Ridiculously good, and immensely different from one another.

Everything before With Teeth is great.

Yes. WT is a good record. Everything after that is hit or miss, but I disagree with the opinion that WT is as well

That's the popular opinion, and it's one I can't argue. I personally like it, but I accept I am in the minority.

You should listen to Year Zero and especially the remix album of that one. Those were pretty good. You can skip The Slip and Hesitation Marks (though some will praise HM)

I did listen to Year Zero. Its a lot better than With Teeth but not good enough to get me back into them. I haven't heard anything after that unless you count Trent's movie scores.

I can agree with that. The post fragile work is far inferior.

His movie scores are good. 31 Ghosts is a good record that he used to jumpstart his film work

I love 'With Teeth'. The only song I don't like is the title track.

I'm in the super minority of liking With Teeth, Hesitation Marks, and How To Destroy Angels. I like them to varying degrees, but I enjoy everything TR has made up to now. His live presentation is second to none also, always innovative.

And to OP, The Downward Spiral and Pretty Hate Machine for sure; Broken is too industrial for some, but those are some of my favorite songs live YMMV.
